Case Study
Basin Electric Power Cooperative’s Laramie River Station Polymer Makedown Systems
WATER TREATMENT The Basin Electric Power Cooperative’s Laramie River Station (LRS) has its own water plant that utilizes six (6) primary basin clarifiers. Each basin has a recirculation rate of 3,000 to 4,000 gallons per minute and each clarifier is chemically treated with lime for partial lime softening. Sodium Aluminate and an Anionic Flocculent are used to create floc that settles to the bottom of each basin, creating a “blanket”
