Water Treatment Plant $/MGD

Water Treatment Plant $/MGD

Water Treatment Plant $/MGD

(OP)
Was researching what municipal water plants cost at $/MGD.  Any info?  I have heard prices can range from $2-$3/gpd.  Also understand that unit price will decrease as plant capacity increases.  Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

RE: Water Treatment Plant $/MGD

There is a paper by Vanrolleghem et al. from the Biomath Department , University of Gent Belgium that has some useful parameter dependent cost relationships. Web address  is biomath.rug.ac.be/~peter/ftp/pvr226.pdf .

Another source of info, albeit it is 1979 and needs inflating using the appropriate factors is www.epa.gov/cgi-bin/claritgw.
