Research Objectives and Requirements
Understand individual and combined life-cycle benefits of co-siting.
Document successful and unsuccessful co-siting case studies.
Develop a decision tool
Proposed Approach and Collection Methods
Develop seven potential scenarios Develop a questionnaire covering the scenarios Contact partners to identify potential case studies Conduct an internet search for potential case studies Contact owners and engineers for co-siting facilities, and obtain information for survey. Use case studies to develop model.
Co-Siting Scenarios1: Power Plant – SWRO Co-siting2: SWRO – WWTP Co-siting3: BWRP – WWTP Co-Siting4: SWRO – Power Plant Co-siting5: Power Plant – BWRO Co-siting6: SWRO – Industrial Co-siting7: BWRO – Industrial Co-siting

Advantages Shared intake infrastructure
Reduced Construction, No Increase in Total Intake Volume
Shared discharge infrastructure Reduced Construction, Outfall Blending,
Beneficial Use of Brine Land Available and Zoned Power plant synergies
Higher Temp, Electricity Rates, Less Transmission, benefits for power plant
Disadvantages Life cycle of existing facility infrastructure Opposition to Once-Through Cooling Impacts to membrane performance Concentration disposal limitations Regulatory issues Siting constraints Patent restrictions Operation constraints
Research Presented for 31 Case Studies
General: Scenario, Location, Timeline, Status, Piloting, Intake and Outfall Configuration, and Water Source.
Technical:Plant Flows, Flows of Existing Facilities, Salinity and Salinity Variations, Recovery, Feed Temperature and Energy Consumption.
Economics:Capital Cost, Annual O&M cost, and Funding Sources.
Environmental: Land Use, Endangered Species, Permitting/Regulatory, Intake Issues, Discharge Issues, and Mitigation Requirements.
Public Perception and Public Relations:Issues of Public Concern, Political Will, Public Outreach, and Resistance by Special Interest Groups.
Advantages and Disadvantages: Advantages, Disadvantages, and Key Lessons Learned.
