NapaSan – Soscol Water Recycling Facility

First Place
 Redwood Empire Section

Today, the Soscol Water Recycling Facility is a state-of-the-art wastewater treatment and recycling plant. All treatment operations were consolidated at this plant during the late 1990’s, and the former treatment facilities at the Imola plant were demolished.

Wastewater that enters the Soscol Water Recycling Facility from the City of Napa and surrounding unincorporated areas goes through a complex series of steps to remove contaminants. These steps include removal of solid, floating and dissolved materials, removal of waste by microorganisms, followed by filtration and chlorination. The water receives tertiary treatment, making it safe to discharge to the Napa River or for reuse as recycled water in irrigation. Recycled water is now used to irrigate golf courses, vineyards, parks and pastureland.

NapaSan is comprised of a number of dedicated, capable employees focused on providing high level wastewater treatment and recovery services at reasonable cost.
