Water Treatment

Cities, utilities, and special districts are responsible for protecting public health by providing safe and reliable drinking water for their customers. In doing so, they face a variety of complex challenges that include depleted and contaminated water supplies, local, state and federal regulatory changes, and outdated infrastructure.

EKI works with our municipal and industrial clients to address these issues by providing expertise in evaluating, planning, designing and overseeing construction of water treatment infrastructure. Our extensive experience includes water treatment systems for groundwater and surface water that address chemicals of concern such as iron, manganese, nitrate, hexavalent chromium, arsenic, lead, volatile organic compounds, Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), and other contaminants.

We implement pilot studies and process optimization to select the most cost-effective treatment solutions for our clients and provide regulatory support by leading the permit process for new and rehabilitated drinking water infrastructure. EKI has expertise in addressing unregulated emerging contaminants and can assist municipal and industrial clients with evaluating water treatment alternatives. See PFAS and Emerging contaminants page for more information.
