Project Description
The purpose of the project is to retrofit the Kyrene Water Reclamation Facility. The plant is located in Tempe, Arizona, opened in 1991, expanded in 2006 to operate a maximum month flow of 9 MGD for The City of Tempe. The objectives include providing Class A+ reclaimed water effluent and reducing the capacity from 9 million gallons per day (MGD) to an average of 3 MGD. The City of Tempe plans to have construction completion and start-up of the KWRF by 2025. The new design of the plant takes into consideration biosolids handling and the energy efficiency of the plant to comply with the City of Tempe’s goal to become 100% green energy by 2030 and carbon neutral by 2050.
