Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant
Located in Pennsylvania
- Capability
- Natural Gas Infrastructure
- Completion 2025
Project Overview
Our energy client in Philadelphia sought to construct, own, and operate a new reverse osmosis water treatment facility to replace its relatively expensive city water source with filtered, deionized water from the adjacent Schuylkill River. The water is used in its steam generation process to provide district energy service to Philadelphia. Our mechanical, industrial electric, and heavy civil groups partnered with the client team to successfully complete the construction.
Key Highlights
The project presented significant challenges, as the new plant was constructed in an existing building that was over 100 years old. Extensive removal of existing equipment and piping was required prior to starting construction. With the new equipment being installed in such tight quarters, meticulous planning and strategic execution was crucial. Our mechanical group enlisted our design team to scan the entire building, employing 3D modeling for equipment layout and isometric drawings to ensure the most efficient and effective use of the space.
