PILOT TESTING FACILITIES EE&T has worked with all combinations of providing pilot facilities. We have worked with manufacturer based pilot plants, built site specific pilot equipment and provided the facilities on a lease or sale basis, designed and had contractor built facilities that were purchased by the utility or provided our own in-house equipment on a monthly rental basis. EE&T itself owns conventional pilot facilities, rapid mix, flocculation, sedimentation, and 4 or 6 in. diameter filters. We have an ozone generator and ozone columns and several sets of GAC columns constructed of glass and stainless steel for organics studies. EE&T also owns spiractor softening equipment. All of this equipment is made available on a rental basis. EE&T owns on-line particle counters and on-line turbidimeters. We have set up several pilot facilities with automatic computer data logging. We also own a mobile laboratory. The trailer lab was specifically designed for the purpose of providing laboratory and communication support at a remote facility. It is fully equipped with wet chemistry analytical equipment, batch particle counters as well as telecommunications equipment (fax, cellular phone, two computer/modem systems) needed to communicate and share data with our headquarters staff.
