    The plant takes water from the Tideway during the last three hours of ebb, storing the water in a reservoir to minimise the salinity of the water processed. The water is first treated by a conventional settlement and filtration before the salinity is removed by reverse osmosis. Mineral salts, as found in the company's conventional water sources ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_wastewater...

    The largest in term of capacity, both during dry and wet-weathers, is the Jean-R.-Marcotte Wastewater Treatment Plant in Montreal. With full secondary treatment of effluents it would be the Deer Island Waste Water Treatment Plant of Boston. In terms of area occupied it is by far Melbourne's Western Treatment Plant.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_biological_contactor

    The RBC process allows the wastewater to come in contact with a biological film in order to remove pollutants in the wastewater before discharge of the treated wastewater to the environment, usually a body of water (river, lake or ocean). A rotating biological contactor is a type of secondary (biological) treatment process.
