Описание: Recording of the webinar "Demonstrating Virus Log Removal in Wastewater Treatment to Increase Regulatory Confidence for Potable Reuse," recorded February 16, 2022.

Description:
OCWD operates the largest potable reuse facility in the world, the Groundwater Replenishment System, which takes highly treated wastewater, purifies it into drinking water standards and recharges it into the Orange County Groundwater Basin. As part of the District’s robust research program, a recently completed study, executed in collaboration with Orange County Sanitation District and co-funded by the Water Research Foundation and Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, demonstrated enteric virus log removal during conventional wastewater treatment. OCWD aims to use the study results to help meet the total Log Reduction Value (LRV) credits required for potable reuse projects in California.

Attendees will learn how virus removal through multiple parallel secondary wastewater treatment processes can be quantitatively measured and analyzed using statistical techniques to propose a single log removal credit value for a recycled water project and hear about the status of OCWD’s proposals to the State Water Board Division of Drinking Water.

Speakers:
1. Julio Polanco, Ph.D., Scientist, Orange County Water District
2. Claire Johnson, P.E., Senior Regulatory Specialist, Orange County Water District
