Treatment With Purpose

From designing the latest treatment technologies to creative approaches to unique challenges, we can assist you with meeting your program goals.

R2T’s Water and Wastewater Engineering Team is made up of personnel with experience in the areas of engineering design, owner representation and consulting, project management, and treatment plant operations and optimization. Our qualified staff of engineers and scientists provide high levels of service by designing and developing wastewater alternatives using advanced treatment technologies. We work with utilities, local governments and municipalities to facilitate the development of innovative and cost-effective solutions to wastewater treatment needs and address emerging wastewater challenges.

Featured Projects

Bolton and Phillip Lee Pump Stations

R2T provided full-service, multi-discipline engineering design services to the City of Atlanta DWM for the replacement of the Bolton Road and Phillip Lee Pump Stations. R2T provided architectural, structural, process mechanical, civil, electrical, and instrumentation design services for two discreet design-bid-build packages, one for each station. As the lead firm, R2T also implemented hydraulic similitude modeling in conjunction with the Clemson Hydraulics Laboratory. Results of the models were used to optimize footprint and recognize cost savings while allowing adequate capacity to meet future flow projections.

United States Air Force Robins Air Force Base

R2T served as the lead design-build subcontractor at Robins Air Force Base, supporting infrastructure and lift station upgrades. The work included improvements to two industrial wastewater treatment plants, five industrial lift stations, and two sanitary lift stations, all delivered under mission-critical constraints with limited downtime. Services included system evaluations, hydraulic and field testing, and implementation of upgrades such as pump and control replacements, wet well rehabilitation and replacement, and electrical improvements. The work addressed corrosion, aging infrastructure, and operational limitations, improving system reliability and extending asset life. R2T provided design-build services through planning, detailed design, construction, and commissioning.

HJAIA Master Plan and Hydraulic Modeling Support

R2T assisted the City of Atlanta DWM with the development and implementation of a sewer system hydraulic model and subsequent condition assessment with wastewater monitoring and master planning services for critical infrastructure at Hartsfield-Jackson. We conducted a vulnerability assessment and managed internal inspection of a key pipeline and wastewater characterization through a sampling plan to identify waste load quality issues. R2T assisted the DWM’s Flow Monitoring Division in the implementation of a sewer metering program in a challenging, limited-access environment, and in ensuing data quality reviews. R2T’s expertise was key in managing the development of a hydraulic sanitary sewer model in InfoWorks ICM.

DeKalb County Water Reuse Feasibility Study

R2T assisted DeKalb County in solving water reuse and inter-basin transfer challenges between the Chattahoochee River Basin and the Ocmulgee River Basin. We identified emerging contaminants and health risks through an extensive literature review, related treatment requirements and advanced treatment technologies, met with regulators to review permitting for various forms of reuse, and developed preliminary non-potable and indirect reuse concepts. R2T produced a reuse study replete with cost estimates and alternatives analysis.
