Parkson사는 캘리포니아 어바인(Irvine) 지역에서 ‘우수 물기술(Superior Water Technologies)’ 파트너십을 체결했으며, 최근 대부분 비효율적이었던 노후화된 시스템의 교체 일환으로 리버사이드(Riverside) 지역에 물소독 기술인 ‘MaximOS™’을 설치했다. 이는 서부도시상수도국(WMWD, Western Municipal Water District) 내 심각한 가뭄으로 큰 타격을 입은 지역 주민들에게 안전하고 신뢰할 수 있는 식수를 제공하기 위한 필요성을 인식한 결과이다.

 

“플랜트의 구축으로 서부 지역 현장에 적용할 수 있게 되었다“며 “운영 및 유지 관리와 관련된 비용을 이해하고 현장에 적용되는 기술을 검토한 결과 독특하고 진보된 디자인을 갖춘 MaximOS 기술은 운영 및 유지 관리 비용을 절감한다”고 지역 관리자인 Albert Magallon은 설명했다.

 

 

 

Parkson, in partnership with Superior Water Technologies in Irvine, Calif., recently installed its MaximOS™ on-site water disinfection technology in Riverside, Calif., to replace an aging system that had become largely inefficient. The city is within the Western Municipal Water District, an area hard hit by drought and keenly aware of the need to provide safe, reliable drinking water to its customers.

 

“Western Municipal has been utilizing on-site generation since this phase of the plant was built,” explains Albert Magallon, Operations Supervisor. “We understand the costs associated with operating and maintaining a system. After our review of on-site generation technologies, we felt that MaximOS offered unique and the most advanced design features, like the automatic self-cleaning electrolytic cell that would lower our O&M costs.”

 

However, the benefits of MaximOS go far beyond cost effectiveness. It features a green technology that disinfects water using only salt, water and electricity to create a highly effective disinfection solution that is produced and stored in low concentrated form.

 

MaximOS also positively impacts Western Municipal’s operation and maintenance of on-site generation in ways that the public may not know. For instance, the equipment eliminates the need to purchase, transport and store dangerous chemicals. It reduces carbon emissions and fuel consumption, minimizes operator interaction, and takes up less floor space than conventional systems. MaximOS doesn’t even require a transformer.

 

“It took less than two weeks for Superior Water to change out the existing OSG system in Riverside,” says John Deogracias, Commercial Leader of MaximOS, “and now that it’s operational, the district’s daily maintenance needs have reduced dramatically."
