Arkansas shifts toward larger water plants
Article Abstract:
The Two-ton water treatment plant project in the rural areas in Arkansas was a collaboration between Washington and Benton counties. The $40-million, 12 megagallons-per-day facility will service communities that are dependent on well water. The initiative includes the construction of an intake house and laying of 80 miles of pipe. Two tanks along the route will serve as storage during off-peak periods, in which the pumping stations will be turned off.

Poplar trees soak up treatment plant effluent, biosolids
Article Abstract:
Woodburn, OR, will begin operating the first large-scale poplar tree plantation in the US irrigated with municipal wastewater treatment plant effluent and liquid biosolids. The Woodburn Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant will use wastewater effluent in spraying an 80-acre poplar tree plantation to prevent discharging to the Pudding River in summer. The plantation will be expanded every five years to keep up with population growth.

Biosolids plants get phase-lift
Article Abstract:
Richard R. Daque and Yue Han have developed the temperature phased anaerobic digestion (TPAD) system, a water pollution treatment method, that includes the mesophilic and thermophilic systems is in the treatment of biosolids. The TPAD method has been used in a water pollution control plant in Newton, Iowa and was proven to be successful. The system produces safer by-products and yields better productivity.
