Water Treatment
The water treatment professionals at Provost & Pritchard are among the nation’s most qualified to engineer treatment solutions for a wide range of contaminants in groundwater and surface water. Our recent experience ranges from treating challenging surface waters with sustained winter turbidity in excess of 150 NTU, disinfection byproduct and precursor removal systems, arsenic removal through iron assisted coagulation-filtration and adsorptive media systems, ion exchange systems for the removal of uranium, nitrate and PFAS, dozens of Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) and air stripping treatment plants to mitigate 1,2,3-Trichloropropane (TCP) and other Volatile or Synthetic Organic Chemicals, and many projects involving co-occurring contaminants.
Remaining in compliance with water and wastewater regulations is more challenging than ever as utilities have to stretch funds further to meet new and stricter standards. At Provost & Pritchard we focus on guiding our clients towards the most reliable and cost-effective solution to their problems – avoiding treatment where possible; designing treatment plants that are effective but are also affordable to operate and maintain when treatment is required. We also help water systems secure funding for the improvement projects needed to make sure they continue to provide safe and reliable drinking water.
