R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant is where Toronto gets nearly half of its drinking water

R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant is one of four city plants providing the city of Toronto with drinking water. It's an architectural wonder in the city and is one of a few in Toronto that still serves its original purpose since it first opened. This sprawling plant cleans and produces more than 950 million litres of clean water daily for the city.

Yessir

[@Rod-bp8ow]

That's a good water treatment facility for Toronto, this should also provide clarity regarding waters being drawn directly at sea, wherein it should be treated first through the stages. SMEs..... Respectively.

[@ijustwannagive]

You spelled fluoride wrong.

[@mohdsoban668]

What are the challanges for the treatment in minus temperature ??

[@Shamsithaca]

Has the water been tested for PFAS, and other forever chemicals? Seems like it is quite dangerous for health.

[@pauldouglas5895]

why does the water smell from your tapes for the last 3 years and still today

[@Nazio868]

Nothing to do with the treatment, rather sediment build up in the distribution pipelines

[@themore-you-know]

@@Nazio868, nah, might actually be the plant itself and its network.
Examples:
a) I didn't see details into the disinfection process, so its possible ozonation is not a part of the installations. FYI: ozonation is a process that injects micro-bubbles of ozone, a gas which destroys organic compounds, and can help get rid of some odors such as fishy/algae odors. It has its pros and cons (namely extra cost to the network).
b) "smell" is often described by citizens as chlorine, and chlorine smell can be of many reasons, such as living nearby a pumping station in which chlorine concentrations is added back into the network (so the end of a network dont go stale and possibly dangerous). If you're the first house after a pumping station, your house will always be more "smelly" than the median one along the line.
