PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
Corix said, "Membranes are in vogue and their dependability is proven, enabling us to make a decision to go with membranes."
DESCRIPTION
The Cultus Country Resort in British Columbia is 60 miles east of Vancouver. Corix and Ovivo joined hands to provide Ovivo’s first fully Enviroquip MBR system for a wastewater treatment plant in Canada. The selected wastewater treatment system design for the resort would have to be flexible enough to handle a range of hydraulic demands. Using the concept of biohydraulics, the Cultus Country MBR system was designed to exceed biological treatment objectives over the range of expected operating conditions. The MBR system is designed with the Storm Master™ configuration, which can significantly reduce solids handling costs by thickening solids up to 3%. This capability minimizes hauling requirements and will thus save the plant thousands of dollars in hauling expenses.
