Facility – injectors, flash

with great success
 $400 million project
 Ensures stable and reliable water supply through
2050
 Takes excess water flow out of Little Arkansas
River, treats it to meet water-quality standards, and
pumps it underground into the Equus Beds acuifer
for later use
 Phase I was completed in 2006 with the capacity to
pump up to 10 million galls of water a day into the
aquifer. When Phase II is completed in 2012, that
number will jump to 40 million gallons a day.
ASR-II
AOP selected for the removal
PHASE II: During thisof
phase,
the water treatment plant will use
atrazine
membranes to treat the water and advanced oxidation to remove the
atrazine and provide disinfection so that all of the water recharged meets
the safety standards established by the Kansas Department of Health
and Environment. Both of these are proven cutting edge technologies –
but the success of phase II of this project would only be achieved if a
degassing system could be designed to work at system operating
parameters. Mazzei was selected for their proven ability to adapt their
products to specific operating conditions.

o Very effective at organic destruction
large
storage tank o Large pressure drop across system
• Mazzei Degas System
o Remove 95% (min) of all undissolved
ozone and oxygen gases
o Mazzei System must perform at 1.5
psi influent pressure
Examples of Full-Scale HiPOx Reactors
Hypox reactors require interior
static mixing and nozzles
causing a significant pressure
drop across the system
Halia Advanced Oxidation Pilot System
Solution – Step 1
• Modify Mazzei standard product
(DS1600) – to DS1600LF
• Mazzei and Lakos engineers
redesigned degas separator for
reduced flow at 1.5 psi inlet
pressure
• Lakos manufacturing division built
prototype to be tested

TM
The Mazzei GDT™ Degas Separator is
designed to remove entrained gas bubbles
from pressurized water streams.
Mazzei was asked to create a custom degas
separator to meet the performance criteria of
the ASR-II Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP).
The challenge of designing the custom degas
separator was removing gases at extremely
low operating pressures.
Prepared for oxygen service –
full penetration welds required

• Delivery date NLT September 2010
• Validation must be witnessed at full

Solution – Step 2
• Prototype delivered to WET Lab on
time for validation phase
• Rain-for-Rent contracted to
complete custom installation of
the largest system ever tested
at WET – pipes cut to fit on site
• WET Lab testing began
prototype validation – testing
design critical at full flow –
inlet and discharge head
‘visual’ measurements as well
as air flow into the water
stream and out of the degas
separator vent valve.

The WET Lab’s capabilities
were key to our success –
precise monitoring of flow and
pressures were required by
B&C and CAS PM – all
controlled by Joe on a PDA –
data logged stored through
telemetry
DS1600LF Arriving at ICWT
Gantry allowed for safely offloading and positioning the
separator which weighed
nearly 6000 lbs.

Success!!
The initial test run of the degas
separator was successful.
-
The final test run witnessed by Burns
and McDonnell verified degas
separator performance resulting in
final approval of Mazzei’s submittal
to supply ASR-II with six custom
DS1600-LF GDT™ Degas Separators.

Acknowledgments
The successful development of the
custom degas separator was due to the
teamwork and the design skills of the
engineers at Mazzei and Claude-Laval
Corporation, our partner in the
development GDT™ Degas Separator
Separator performance testing was
conducted at the Fresno State University
Water & Energy Technology (W.E.T.)
Laboratory – custom installation performed
by Rain-for-Rent.
