Subject Furnace Creek Water Plant Date 24 JUL 2009
Furnace Creek, headquarters of Death Valley National Park in California, is a region that attracts more than 700,000 visitors annually and has been home to the Timbisha Shoeshone tribe (a federally recognized Native American tribe). Regarded as one of the most arid and lowest census-designated place in the United States, providing safe and adequate water has become a challenge for the region. To meet demands for clean water for potable uses, Furnace Creek Water Plant uses CSM brackish and low pressure RO membranes to reduce TDS, arsenic, flouride and boron levels to comply with US and California drinking water standards. The feed water is gravity fed with pressure reducing valves and the system operates with a permate flush upon system shutdown.
