Johnson intake systems have long been the most cost-effective, trouble-free means of surface water extraction. Now they’re even better. Average through-slot velocity - and intake capacity - has been increased by 30% while remaining below the 0.5 feet-per-second (fps) limit. The list of Johnson screen advantages now includes:

Reduced size
Johnson’s new design allows a smaller, more easily handled screen to be used. A 36" Johnson high capacity screen, for example, can equal the capacity of a competitive 42" screen.

Reduced maintenance
Johnson screens have no moving parts, a non-plugging slot design and use corrosion

Environmentally friendly
Uniform intake flows under 0.5 fps present no danger to aquatic life.

Easy cleaning
Our unique air back wash systems are remote controlled - no hands-on work with divers or on-land debris disposal.

Adaptability
We design for special conditions. For example, mussel-repelling alloys are used when infestations are high. For very shallow water, we design custom, manifolded screen layouts. For replacing old intake installations we supply special bulk-head-mounted Johnson screens.

Ballasted Clarifiers

View the Brochure. ( 584 kb)

The product of many years of research and development, the Actiflo ballasted clarification process, developed by OTV, will solve the most severe treatment problems and meet economic objectives, a growing preoccupation of municipal and industrial managers. The Actiflo process represents the most advanced available clarification process on the market. Having quickly achieved worldwide recognition, the Actiflo process is the solution best suited to the treatment of a wide variety of raw water qualities. Compact, flexible and easy to operate, the Actiflo ballasted clarification process is ideal for upgrading existing water plants, as well as for installation in new water facilities.

The Actiflo process provides numerous advantages over all known settling processes presently in use.

Economy
Micro-sand vigorous mixing considerably reduces coagulation and flocculation time and, consequently, the overall footprint of the mixing and flocculation chambers. High flow rates (40 to 70 m 3 /h per m 2 of surface) produce compact installations and low civil costs, ideal for upgrading existing plants. Efficient use of chemical dosage produces an important reduction in operating costs.

Stability and Flexibility
Changes in raw water characteristics (turbidity, pH, temperature) do not significantly affect the clarified effluent quality. The process will accept wide swings in flow rates (between 0% and 150% of nominal flow) with no effect on effluent quality. The stability of the process simplifies its operation.

Water of superior quality
The coagulation/flocculation phase produces a consistent clarified water of superior quality for all raw water conditions.

Responsiveness
The Actiflo is capable of very rapid start-up and responds quickly to changed operating conditions. Effluent turbidity exceeding accepted standards will be attained in less than 30 minutes after start-up.

TOC/DOC/DPB Removal

View the Brochure. ( 564 kb)

The MIEX® Resin is designed specifically to be used in a continuous ion exchange process that utilizes the high surface area of the resin beads to provide ion exchange in mixed or fluidized bed reactors at very low resin concentrations and short detention times. The magnetic properties of the resin beads result in the beads forming agglomerates that will settle rapidly or fluidize at high hydraulic loading rates, thus allowing small unit process footprints. There are two reactor configurations in which the MIEX® Resin can be applied. A description of the reactor configurations and regeneration process is as follows:

High Rate Configuration

Raw water fed to the base of the reactor vessel is mixed with the MIEX® Resin and the ion exchange process occurs in a fluidized bed (Figure 2). In the fluidized bed the magnetic particles are attracted to each other to form large agglomerates that form a stable resin suspension at hydraulic loading rates of up to 12 gpm/ft2. An agitator operating at slow speeds keeps the resin/water suspension uniformly mixed. A small stream of resin is withdrawn from the reactor vessel, regenerated with a 12% NaCl solution and returned to maintain the ion exchange capacity of the process.

A series of plates (or tube settlers) at the top of the reactor vessel separate the resin from the water and treated effluent overflows into collection launders to downstream treatment processes.

Resin Regeneration Process

A small volume of resin is continuously removed from the reactor vessel to the regeneration system. Fresh regenerated resin is returned to the reactor to maintain a consistent ion exchange capacity. The continuous withdrawal of loaded resin and return of regenerated resin ensures a consistent treated water quality and prevents the chromatographic peaking that can occur with conventional ion exchange columns. Brine solutions typically consist of NaCl but other salts such as KCl, MgCl2 or NaHCO3 can also be used if sodium or chloride is not desired in the waste discharge.

Underdrain Systems

Triton / Johnson Screens

Johnson Screens Underdrain Product Introduction

View the Brochure. ( 1,052 kb)

Eliminate the gravel and the headaches from your filters.
The large openings in conventional filter underdrain collectors require an intermediate layer of support gravel between the collectors and finer-grained filter media. During backwashing, bed upset can take place in which the support gravel is carried to the bed surface and filter media moves downward into the collectors. To avoid this recurring maintenance problem, we developed the Triton underdrain. Using fine-slot Johnson screens, we've eliminated the support gravel; the treatment media is directly retained by the screen. This means new systems can use smaller tanks, retrofits can use more filter media in existing tanks, and - in every case - filter bed upset is eliminated.

Other Triton (R) Underdrain advantages:
There are other advantages as well. Because the floor of the filter is virtually wall-to-wall screen, air/water backwash is uniformly distributed throughout the bed with very little loss of energy. A single, center channel collects flow and distributes backwash - no need for a complete false floor. Installation of the screen sections is simple, requires no special equipment, and is easily done by a single worker. Long, high-capacity filter runs are made possible by the plug-resistant design of the screen. Like our other screen systems, it is extremely adaptable.

Monobloc / General Filter

The stainless steel Laser Shield™ media retainer includes openings less than .22 mm and the HPDE Shield has a 500 micron porosity. To increase filter backwash cleaning efficiency, the underdrain can be provided with our MULTIWASH® technology for a simultaneous air/water backwash that provides vigorous scouring action to return a clean filter bed without media loss.

Type S / Leopold

ITT / Leopold® Underdrain Product Detail

Improved Underdrain Performance for Superior Results

Because the upward flow of air through an underdrain creates low-pressure zones in the underdrain, some orifices can become starved for flow... or even reverse flow.

Leopold has designed a water recovery channel into its Type S™ Technology Underdrain to help ensure uniform and continuous airflow from all of the top deck orifices. The water recovery channel is designed to allow water to re-enter the underdrain to equalize the low-pressure areas. This dramatically improves the performance of the underdrain and provides superior results, particularly with the dual lateral design.

The results of Type S technology are real: Broader airflow range, now 1 to 5 scfm/sf. Improved air stability under all operating conditions with all orifices providing uniform and continuous airflow. Lower water maldistribution - less than 5 percent (total).

Slow Sand Filtration

MS Filter Inc. Filtration Product Introduction

View the Brochure. ( 431 kb)

MS Filter Inc. has developed and tested a new Multi-Stage Filtration process that effectively treats raw water with high turbidity, algae, and color without the use of pre-treatment chemicals or complex filter backwash procedures. The process is designed for smaller systems ranging from 20 to 2,000 in population.

The Multi-Stage filtration process is based around a slow sand filter. Slow sand filtration is a proven treatment process which in the past ten years has been gaining popularity due to its inherent simplicity of operation. Typical slow sand filter designs, however, are limited in application to good quality raw water sources. In general, acceptable raw water conditions for the conventional 'slow sand' process are:

• Low Turbidity
• Low Color
• Low Algae Count

Therefore, this has precluded its use in many smaller communities which could benefit most from its operational simplicity. The Multi-Stage Filtration process overcomes limitations while retaining the passive simplicity of slow sand operations.

Dual Media Filters

ITT / Leopold® Media Filter Product Detail

Leopold, with its state-of-the-art anthracite filter media processing facility, can deliver the lowest UC anthracite filter media available on the market today. This means you can operate your water plant longer before backwashing. And when you backwash, you’ll use less filtered water. This reduction in backwash frequency has the added advantage of reducing media attrition over time. Moreover, low-UC anthracite filter media extends the life of your filter before the media must be changed out. Low-UC anthracite typically produces consistent improvements in turbidity removal, due, in part, to more efficient solids loading. Plus, low-UC media produces smaller changes in effluent turbidity during periods of peak influent turbidity.

View the Brochure. ( 988 kb)

At the core of WEDECO systems are high-performance UV lamps. They have long life expectancy, are to a large extent independent of water temperatures and their particularly high performance makes them far superior to conventional emitters.

Electronic controllers containing smart chips are designed specifically for the lamps and increase effectiveness. These can supply energy to the lamps as a function of transmission and flow rates. They ensure that optimal levels of ultraviolet rays are emitted in the effective wavelength range(UV-C) and, at the same time, they ensure low energy consumption. Consequently, they have a much longer life expectancy than conventional lamps.

In addition, calibrated sensors monitor and document all factors necessary for disinfection. If required, additional functions, such as ultraviolet dose indicators, automatic cleaning and remote monitoring via telemetry and the internet, can be integrated.
