USBR and MWDSC Team Up for Desal Research Effort
This article announces that the US Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) and the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWDSC) have entered into a cooperative research agreement to test three water desalination pilot projects at USBR's Water Quality Improvement Center in Yuma, Ariz. One project will test replacing microfiltration pretreatment with a reverse osmosis (RO) pretreatment using ozone and biofiltration processes. A second project will study the performance of large‐diameter (18 in. [450 mm]) RO membranes, which are among the largest currently available. A third project calls for a new concentrate recovery technology to be fed by the reject stream of a large‐diameter RO unit. The research goals of each project are briefly mentioned.
