Shoal Creek Filter Plant SCADA System &
Intake/Pumping Station
Owner:
Gwinnett County, GA Department of
Water Production
Location:
Buford, GA
Project Description:
Recently, the 75 MGD Shoal Creek Filter Plant was
constructed to help ensure water quality demands are met. Not only
does the new plant provide redundancy to the system, but it also
works in accord with the Lanier Filter Plant to increase water
treatment capacity from 150 MGD to 300 MGD. Both plants employ
an ozone system for disinfection and work as one to produce drinking
water.
Transdyn supplied complete process instrumentation
and controls for the entire plant including application engineering,
configuration, start-up and commissioning. Transdyn provided a
redundant SCADA system running on DYNAC® SCADA software and
the system has a complete redundant network.
A central data management system consisting of workstations,
monitors, printers, networking equipment, and a main control
console was also installed. Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)
connected to the data highway via fiber optics were also provided for
a variety of plant processes.
