![]() ![]() MTMA was also able to reduce chlorine feed. Along with reducing the system’s footprint requirements, MTMA experienced energy savings. Evoqua provided two pre-validated SX-635-16 ETS-UV™ ultraviolet systems to meet the MTMA’s design and disinfection requirements. With sustainability concerns being top of mind, Evoqua’s disinfection team worked closely with the consulting engineer, KLH Engineers, to interface with PA DEP to get the final approvals. Through the years the airport has expanded into the modern-day Pittsburgh International Airport. It was used as a military installation during World War II. ![]() In 1942, the federal government built the Greater Pittsburgh Airport in Moon. MTMA was required to submit the improvement plan as well as the UV validation information to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Safe Drinking Water for final approval and permitting. Moon Township was formed in 1788 and is one of the first townships formed in Allegheny County. Instead of having four small units, one on each filter without redundancy, the Evoqua system installed provides a larger unit to treat flow from all four filters and a redundant second unit in parallel. The upgrade also posed footprint related challenges. Having a validated UV system allows reduction in chlorine feed. Though not required to upgrade the UV system, MTMA wanted to have a new reliable validated UV system. MTMA also desired to install plate settlers to optimize solids settling. MTMA was upgrading their drinking water treatment plant because some treatment tanks and the UV system were near the end of their useful lives.
