Metro Water Recovery - Robert W. Hite Treatment Facility Improvements
Our client, Metro Water Recovery, was dedicated to achieving a more sustainable future by reducing phosphorus loading to the Robert W. Hite Treatment Facility (RWHTF) effluent receiving waters¡ªthe South Platte River. The significant investment towards this goal has resulted in a facility that removes the dangerous but useful and finite resource.
The project team engaged included Â鶹´«Ã½, Hazen, and PCL Construction, all tasked with piloting, designing, procuring, constructing, commissioning, and successfully starting a Phosphorus Recovery Facility. Within our role, we provided operational support and process optimization for new technology¡ªnotably, the trademark MagPrex? phosphorus recovery process by CNP-Technology Water and Biosolids Corporation. The reactor achieves over 90% phosphorus removal of which approximately 20% is recovered in the form of struvite for reuse as a slow-release fertilizer product.
Reducing phosphorus in the river will result in improved overall water quality for aquatic life. Recovering phosphorous in the form of struvite results in a reduction in carbon emissions by enabling the offsetting of commercial fertilizer operations¡ªa beneficial circular economy.
