Objectives
Build water treatment plant to serve the water park and surrounding communities (expand the city limits)
Build small water treatment plant just for the park with only a sand filter and chlorine disinfection involved
The location of the larger
treatment plant will not be on the park site
It will be on the nearest strip mine (brownfields)
Treatment Plant Proposed Location
• The strip mine is owned by the Gulf State Paper Corporation.
• This is the brownfields that thecity could pursue for development opportunities.
• Mr. Warner (owner) has been very generous in providing properties in the past for city projects.
• City needs ADEM and EPA approval and help with funding for cleaning.
• City may have funding to help clean and renovate the brownfields.
Plan for Treatment Plant Location
Lake Nichol
• Built in 1954 and used as a water supply for city of Tuscaloosa.
• 380 acres and has a water capacity of 3.3 billion gallons.
• Originally designed for approximately 50,000 people.
• Use existing pipes and the pump station for our water plant in order to save cost.
Treatment Plant Based on
Water Consumption• Domestic usage: 15-70
gal/cap-day• Public usage: 5-20 gal/cap-
day• Commercial/Industrial usage:
10-100 gal/cap-day • Maximum usage: between 6-
8 am and 6-8 pm.• Minimum usage:
– between 1 and 5 am.• Park water rides water usage
Typical Water Treatment Plant
1. Chemical mixing basin
2. Flocculation Basin
3. Settling Tank
4. Rapid Sand Filter
5. Disinfection with Chlorine
6. Storage basin
7. Pump
Water Usage(from literature)
Class of Usage Quantity (gal/cap-day)
Average Quantity
Domestic 15-17 50
Commercial/
Industrial
10-100 65
Public 5-20 10
Leakage 10-40 25
Total 150
Ed Love Plant
Water Storage Capacity: 25.4 mil. Gal
Water Treatment Capacity: 45.7 mil. Gal/ day
Population Served: 133,000 people
Predicted Water Usage for Tuscaloosa
Consumption = (Water Treatment Capacity-Water Storage Capacity)/Population
Consumption = (45.7 mil-25.4 mil)gal-day/133,000people
Consumption = 153 gal/day-person
Population Prediction
General population for the Lake Nichol area is about 2,400 people
We used the arithmetic method to predict the population growth
dP/ dt = K
where
dP/dt = growth rate
K = constant
Final population = Initial population + Kdt
We estimate the final population to be 10,000 people.
Conceptual Design
• Period: 25 years
• Population: 10,000
• Flow: 100 gallons/cap-day
• Area: – Watermelon Rd.– Yellow Creek Rd.– Old Lock 15 Rd.
Cost1) Building the water treatment
plant– $3/gallon of treated water– $25/linear foot of pipe
2) Cleaning the brownfields– Money from ADEM and EPA– City of Tuscaloosa funds
So In Review…
• We are providing a conceptual design for consideration.
• We plan to create a separate treatment system for the area due to population increases.
• The property and design we use would need approval from ADEM and the EPA.
• We hope the city will use some of its funds to renovate the brownfields.
