Baker Helps Maintain Delicate Balance between Progress and Nature

BakerSituation
A company building a $32 million concrete fish bypass on the Columbia River needs to clean the water dredged out of the pre-cast concrete cells before it can be dumped back into the river.

BakerSolution
Baker consultants designed a system that included four Baker Style Tanks (manifolded), a two-pod sand filter and a 6" dry prime pump. A CO2 bubbler treated the pH of the water. The sand filtration system, pioneered by Baker, is Chitosan enhanced to clean the turbidity of the water measured by an online monitor. The Baker tanks held the water during purification after which it was pumped back into the Columbia River.

BakerResults
Baker experts called on their extensive line of products to hone the exact solution for the challenging river project. The entire system was installed and running in less than a week. The water was purified to the clarity of drinking water and pumped back into the river on time and on budget.
