Distribution System Optimization and Main Cleaning

Working with large, medium, and small systems around North America, Confluence has helped these systems meet national and local regulatory requirements while balancing aesthetic water quality and distribution system operational goals. By taking a holistic view that addresses finished water quality, pipe scale stability, and O&M practices, we can help identify water quality risk factors and prioritize mitigation strategies. Using our significant field experience, we can help plan and implement strategies and provide training for field and utility crews.
