snoop1130 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Resolving Water Quality Problems In Hua Hin The mayor of Hua Hin Mr. Nopporn Wutthikul, along with the deputy mayor Mr. Montree Chuphu, Municipal Council member Mr. Cheep Suksee, the director of the Municipality’s Water Work Division Mr. Prayuth Yeunnuwong and municipal staff, have visited a new water treatment plant and reservoirs in Hua Hin to monitor recent water problems. The reason for the visit was to follow up from complaints made through social media and to the press in Bangkok by residents of Ban Takiab, Nong Kae and Khao Phithak that the tap water was not clean enough and looked murky. Upon the visit to Pranburi Dam, Khao Laeng and Khong Hua Na reservoirs, the municipal officers found that the amount of water in the dam was less than the last time with only 130 million cubic metres of water being stored. In addition, water released was murky and has some weed and algae. At the Khao Laeng reservoir and water plant, the amount of water for the filtering process was normal. However, some processed water released was murky because of sediment remaining in the water pipe. After the visiting the plant, the municipal staff and executives went to a nearby site where a water pipe is being installed with a budget of 900 million THB. The pipe will be able to send more water for consumption to Hua Hin, beginning in 2019. Finally, the municipal staff and executives visited water filtering plants in Hua Na, Khao Laeng and Rai Nun to study the possibility of improving the existing water plants. The Hua Hin Municipality has another project to construct a new water plant in Boh Fai to solve water shortage problems in the long term.

PETERTHEEATER Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Having a domestic storage tank between the meter and the house input helps. Entrained solids in the water fallout as sediment leaving the water mechanically and visually clean but potability? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
