Streamlining Operator Use and Regulatory Compliance with an Automated Membrane Filtration System

Aria FIT™ Packaged Treatment Case Study | City of Cisco, TX

The challenge

The City of Cisco’s water treatment plant serves more than 6,500 residents, which includes two wholesale customers that purchase bulk water from the city for surrounding rural communities. In 2010, the City of Cisco decided to upgrade its existing water treatment plant to replace its conventional dual media filters with modern, sophisticated membrane technology. To determine which membrane system to implement, officials began a testing phase of qualifying solutions from a variety of vendors.

The solution

The quality and reliability of our system was evident throughout the pilot testing phase, resulting in the selection of an Aria FIT membrane filtration system. The City of Cisco’s water treatment plant implemented three skids, resulting in a total capacity of 2.5 million gallons per day.

The results

The high-performing membrane skids provide quality water while the system remains easy to operate. The fully integrated membrane system has automated data logging, making it much easier for the plant to comply with regulations.

“Implementing Aria FIT skids was instrumental in allowing the City of Cisco’s water treatment plant to meet regulations, as it is now much easier to comply with turbidity removal, monitoring, and testing in addition to various other regulations. Its automated reporting and autogenerated data logging make life easier for the operators. Testing and compliance have become less tedious tasks because of the Aria Filtra system.” - Jordan Hibbs, PE, Enprotec / Hibbs & Todd, Inc. (eHT)
