Water Purification Unit Development for Field Army Medical Facilities.

Abstract

A pilot plant of an integrated water processing system has been developed. The Water Processing System treats nonsanitary wastewaters of the U.S. Army field hospitals either for nonpotable reuse or for surface discharge to the environment and purifies natural fresh and brackish waters for potable use. The Water Processing System consists of four units: a Water Treatment Unit, a Water Purification Unit, a Uv/Ozone Oxidation Unit and an Automatic Instrumentation Unit. This report describes the design, configuration and operation of the Water Purification Unit. The primary objective of the Water Purification Unit is to remove most of dissolved contaminants from process water streams.
