How to Calculate Water Treatment Cost
Water treatment costs include energy, chemicals, labor, and sludge disposal.
Formula
Daily Cost = Volume * (Treatment + Chemical cost) / 1,000 + Sludge Disposal
Typical Treatment Costs (per 1,000 gallons)
Example Calculation
A treatment plant processing 50,000 gal/day at $3/1000 gal treatment, $0.50/1000 chemicals, 15% sludge.
- 01Daily treatment: 50,000 * $3 / 1,000 = $150
- 02Daily chemicals: 50,000 * $0.50 / 1,000 = $25
- 03Daily sludge: $150 * 15% = $22.50
- 04Total daily: $150 + $25 + $22.50 = $197.50
- 05Annual: $197.50 * 365 = $72,088
