New water system zaps bugs with ultraviolet light
August 2, 2011
TRACY, Calif. — A high-tech water-treatment system is making some of Northern California’s cleanest water even cleaner.
The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission has opened its Tesla Water Treatment Facility, which is the largest of its kind in California and third largest in North America.
The $114 million facility unveiled Tuesday in Tracy uses ultraviolet light to sterilize drinking water and prevent gastro-intestinal illness caused by harmful parasites and other micro-organisms. The lights will run nonstop to treat 315 million gallons a day.
“It’s like a tanning salon, except if you were a microorganism you’d be fried in a second,” said Bruce Macler, a toxicologist for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in San Francisco. “It’s just light, but it burns them up.”
The chemical-free system will benefit the San Francisco water agency’s 2.5 million Bay Area customers who receive their water from the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir.
Hetch Hetchy water is already very clean because of the lack of livestock and people near the reservoir.
The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Los Angeles, Las Vegas and other cities are planning to launch their own ultraviolet systems.
“I think we really are looking at the next wave of water treatment,” said Timothy Quinn, who heads the Association of California Water Agencies, which represents 450 public water districts around the state. “It means healthier water, and we expect it to be increasingly popular.”
The Tesla plant will allow the San Francisco commission to comply with new state water safety regulations. It will also help keep the Bay Area’s water clean if earthquakes or other calamities affect the water composition at Hetch Hetchy.
