 Wastewater infrastructure includes the facilities necessary to safely collect and treat liquid waste streams from both human and industrial activities
Municipal wastewater deals with the collection and treatment of the liquid wastes generated by residential and industrial activities. Collection includes the publicly owned underground sewers and pumping stations serving a community that can range in size from small rural towns to metropolitan cities and densely populated counties. The collection facilities deliver the sewerage to the publicly owned wastewater treatment plant where the waste is effectively removed from the water and the treated water is safely discharged into the environment
Industrial wastewater typically refers to the treatment of wastewater generated by a privately owned facility engaged in some commercial activity. While small generators of relatively low strength are often permitted to discharge their waste directly in to the public sewer, larger facilities and activities that generate more saturated waste streams are often required to pretreat their waste prior to discharge. Some industrial facilities are not permitted to discharge to the public sewer at all, and must treat to the much more stringent cleanup limits required to directly discharge to the environment.
KEYSTONE provides engineering support to other municipal engineers for the design of specialty aspects of large public wastewater systems, as well as direct support to industrial clients for all aspects of wastewater treatment, source waste reduction, and waste stream segregation.
We provide electrical and control system engineering support to other engineers serving municipalities ranging from small rural authorities to city and county governments. We specialize in power distribution, motor control, automation and remote monitoring (or SCADA) systems.
We also provide design and design-build services to industrial clients, ranging from small process and control system upgrades to complete treatment plants projects.
