end
SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION:
Summary Recommendation
Authorize a sole source purchase for water filter membrane replacements for the Agua Viva Water Treatment Plant (AVWTP) in the amount of $1,515,185.00 to: Zenon Environmental Corporation dba Veolia Water Technologies, Richmond, CA. (Utilities SS-24-095) (Jeremy McCall/Robin R. Wilson)
end
STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
This motion supports the City Council’s strategic outcome of Safe and Prosperous by ensuring the reliability and quality of the City’s water systems.
REPORT:
The membrane modules and cassette frames are AVWTP filtration devices. The water plant utilizes GE Zenon Membrane Filtration Technology and operates eight trains, with four membrane cassettes in each train for a total of 32 membrane cassettes. The membrane filtration cassettes are a vacuum-driven separation process that produces high quality water for distribution to consumers and acts as selective barriers that block particles larger than the pore size (approximately 0.04 microns or millionths of a meter) from passing through the membrane.
The filtration system consists of hollow fibers with pores small enough to block Giardia (approximately 5-15 microns in width), Cryptosporidium (approximately 5 microns), and many other forms of bacteria from entering the distribution system. The membrane cassettes are budgeted to be replaced and upgrading of two full trains (8 total membranes) at the 12-year-old water treatment plant. This will complete a three-year process of replacing all the membranes for the treatment facility.
