Shawn Koorn Funding/Financial Studies City of Kalispell | Professional Engineering Services hdrinc.com Version #Nathan Kutil, PE Water Engineer City-County of Butte-Silver Bow, Basin Creek WTP DesignHDR provided water filtration and disinfection design services for the new Basin Creek WTP. The facility uses a cutting edge ceramic membrane filtration system which is the first of its kind to be installed in the United States. The Basin Creek WTP includes a recovery skid designed to filter the backwash waste from the process and resulting in an overall 99.95% production capability. The CIP interval for the ceramic filters installed at Basin Creek is every 6 months. This means that chemical use is decreased, operation staff labor is cut, and energy use associated with heating chemicals and pumping is reduced by 1/6th over conventional systems. One of the objectives of this project was to operate by gravity to the greatest extent possible. The site was selected based on a hydraulic analysis that allowed placement of the membrane equipment to be at the perfect elevation to accomplish that goal. The Basin Creek WTP is unique in that it operates as an on-demand system. Staff does not make decisions about how much water to treat in order to meet demand but rather demand itself sets the flow rate through the WTP at any given moment.
