In 1977 Cape Coral, Florida became the first municipality in the United States to use the RO process on a large scale with an initial operating capacity of 11,356 m³ (3 million gallons) per day. By 1985, due to the rapid growth in population of Cape Coral, the city had the largest low pressure reverse osmosis plant in the world, capable of ...
The plant was deemed fully operational in 2007, [134] and is designed to run at a maximum capacity of 25 million US gallons (95,000 m 3) per day. [135] The plant can now produce up to 25 million US gallons (95,000 m 3) per day when needed. [136]
[40] [41] This is equivalent to 43 million gallons per day (mgd), or about 86% of the plant's output. The cost of water from the plant will be $100 to $200 more per acre-foot than recycled water (approximately 0.045 cents per gallon), $1,000 to $1,100 more than reservoir water (approx. 0.32 cents per gallon), but $100 to $200 less than ...

The plant has a treatment capacity of 384 million gallons per day (mgd) or 1.45 billion liters per day, with a peak capacity (partial treatment during large storms) of over 1 billion gallons per day (3.8 billion liters/day). The plant occupies 153 acres (0.62 km 2) in the southwest quadrant of Washington, D.C., and
The plant was completed in 2015 at a cost of over $3 billion. [20] [21] The facility was constructed 160 feet (49 m) under Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx and filters water delivered by the New Croton Aqueduct. [22] The 830-by-550-foot (250 by 170 m) plant, which is bigger than Yankee Stadium, [20] is the city's first water filtration plant. [21]
The Lunar greenhouse is an underground farm made by Phil Sadles and Gene Giacomelli of the University of Arizona's Controlled Environment Agriculture Center (CEAC) [4] [5] The urine and exhaled air of the astronauts is reused in the system by the plants. [6] GreenForges is a Canadian startup developing underground farming systems. [7] [8] [9]
Raw water is delivered to the filtration plant by the New Croton Aqueduct and the Jerome Park Reservoir. [2] The Croton plant has a capacity of 320 million U.S. gallons (1.2 billion liters) per day and is designed to remove 99.9% of Giardia cysts, Cryptosporidium, and viruses. The system uses conventional drinking water treatment technologies:
