韦伯盆地水利区（WBWCD）正在调查犹他州萨米特县帕克城及其周边快速发展地区的其他饮用水水源。该地区是2002年冬奥会的主要场馆之一。对各种处理方案进行了初步评估，发现使用低压膜处理Rockport水库水是最具吸引力的替代方案。向膜制造商发出了报价邀请函（RFQ），并选择了四种膜系统[包括微滤（MF）和超滤（UF）]进行试验- 规模评估，以确保全尺寸最终1800万加仑/天工厂的成功设计和性能。研究的具体目标是验证每个制造商在RFQ响应中列出的设计标准，并比较各种低压膜技术的性能。在寒冷的季节条件下（2000年1月至3月），对三种低压膜系统[US Filter/Memcor MF、Aquasource UF、Koch UF]进行了初步评估。然后，在更温暖的条件下（5月）测试了另一个低压UF膜系统[Zenon ZeeWeed UF]- 2000年6月）与MFS系统并行。第一阶段计划代表与水库超周期和低水温相关的最坏情况。第二阶段计划代表通常与融雪和当地径流有关的条件。包括表格、数字。

The Weber Basin Water Conservancy District (WBWCD) is investigating additional sources of potable waterfor the rapidly developing area in and around Park City in Summit County, Utah. The area is one of the majorvenues for the 2002 Winter Olympics. A preliminary evaluation of various treatment alternatives wasconducted and treatment of Rockport Reservoir water with low-pressure membranes was found to be the mostattractive alternative. A request for quote (RFQ) was issued to the membrane manufacturers and four membranesystems [including microfiltration (MF) and ultrafiltration (UF)] were selected for pilot-scale evaluation toassure a successful design and performance of the full-scale ultimate 18-million gallons per day plant. The specific objectives ofthe study were to validate the design criteria listed by each manufacturer in the RFQ response and to comparethe performance of various low-pressure membrane technologies.Three low-pressure membrane systems [US Filter/Memcor MF, Aquasource UF, Koch UF] were initiallyevaluated under cold seasonal conditions (January-March 2000). An additional low-pressure UF membranesystem [Zenon ZeeWeed UF] was then tested under warmer conditions (May-June 2000) in parallel with the MFsystem. The first phase was planned to represent worst case conditions associated with the reservoir turn-overperiod and low water temperatures. The second phase was planned to represent conditions normally associatedwith snow-melt and local runoff. Includes tables, figures.
