Chemical dosing plays a pivotal role in water and wastewater treatment operations, so selecting the optimal feed system is critical to achieving quality goals and meeting permit requirements. With multiple technologies available, it is important to understand the benefits and downsides of each.
Chemical dosing for disinfection in the drinking water treatment process can be an expensive and tedious task. Many municipalities struggle to keep down the cost of chemicals, power, and maintenance while devoting an extensive amount of labor to making hourly checks. However, there is an alternative that is both effective and economical.
Wastewater plants treat effluent with chlorine as a final disinfection measure prior to its discharge into the environment. While this should be straightforward, there are still a significant number of small water systems facing big problems because they don’t have a solid grasp on the process. The good news is that a modern, cost-effective solution is available.
The water treatment plants (WTP’s) manager for the city of Midlothian, TX reports significant reduction in chemical costs, gaining new management control for their generation and feed equipment, and ending a pesky maintenance burden, by switching to three-precursor vacuum generator-feed, from batch-generator-pumping, for introducing chlorine dioxide (ClO2) into their 8 MGD plant #2. As a result, he plans to make the same change at their 12 MGD plant #1.
Chemicals are among the greatest allies that drinking water and wastewater treatment operations have in the fight against contaminants. But these operations are dependent on the proper technology to administer just the right amount of chemicals at just the right time, ensuring that effluent is neither under- nor overdosed.
Drinking water and wastewater treatment operators are in a hazardous line of work. Beyond the large, complicated machinery they rely on, the use of chlorine and sulfur dioxide is a regular part of operations, two chemicals that can prove dangerous if not handled properly.
The use of chemicals to treat water supplies can be traced back to the 19th century when English physician John Snow chlorinated a British water supply to stop the spread of cholera.
The district manager for the Pinetop-Lakeside Sanitary District (AZ) reports that a special gas chlorination system, featuring unique components and controls, and manufacturer-supplied service, has effectively replaced a chlorine tablet system.
As part of its Long Term Control Plan to reduce combined sewer overflows (CSOs) to the Merrimack River, the City of Nashua, NH constructed a new Screening and Disinfection facility (SDF) to reduce untreated discharges of CSOs to the Merrimack River.
The public works director responsible for a southwestern U.S. city’s drinking water supply reports multiple benefits from replacement of a problematic peristaltic pump system with a special liquid vacuum feeder system for bleach, liquid ammonium sulfate (LAS), and polyphosphate feeds at one of its well sites.
A municipal water quality manager reports replacement of sodium hypochlorite (hypo) vacuum feeder units with a more advanced type at one water treatment plant (WTP) has helped allow for continued reliability for chlorination.
The instrumentation supervisor for the City of Baltimore, MD’s 150-MGD Back River wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) reports that replacement of problematic vacuum feeders with more advanced vacuum feed units has ended heavy maintenance burdens associated with sodium hypochlorite (hypo) treatment of plant effluent.

The Water Environment Federation (WEF) has named JCS Industries, Inc. of Spring, TX as a winner of one of its three Innovative Technology Awards for 2012, in recognition of the company’s patented Model 4100 Liquid Vacuum Feeder.
Operations management for a municipal water treatment plant (WTP) reports reliable replacement of a problematic, pump-driven polymer dosing unit in its solids contact clarification system with a special, vacuum-driven dosing unit. By Cliff Lebowitz
Operations management for a municipal direct water filtration plant reports achievement of a reliable and cost-effective change in chlorination systems that has continued to provide for effective disinfection, while better meeting safety and efficiency criteria. By Cliff Lebowitz
JCS Industries, Inc. was founded in 2002 as a product development company charged with developing an alternative to the current vacuum feed liquid doser technology for a worldwide manufacturer of water and waste treatment equipment. After one year of design and two years of beta testing, JCS developed the Model 4100 Automatic Vacuum Liquid Feeder.
With over ten years and more than 800 installations, from 3 gallons per day to 50,000 gallons per day, in areas as diverse as Duluth, MN and Hilo Hawaii, JCS has perfected, applied for and received US Patents for the all vacuum liquid feeder. JCS can also proudly state that we have the largest all vacuum liquid feeders (up to 60,000 gallons per day).
Because of the success of the Liquid Doser, JCS was asked by the same company to develop accessory items and gas feed equipment. This was accomplished when JCS released the Model 4200 gas feeder. With gas systems that are online and feeding from 25 pounds per day up to 8,000 pounds per day, JCS is ready to create and improve on anything that is directly or indirectly related to feeding water and waste treatment chemicals.
Here at JCS, we welcome your comments on how to improve existing products, and recommendations on the creation of the next generation of chemical feed equipment.
