Large aerator installed in San Jose water storage to clear out possible carcinogens
An aeration system has been installed in San Jose Water Company’s 12 million-gallon water storage tank to keep dwindling water supplies free of contaminants and possible carcinogens.
As organic matter in water sources, like drying rivers and lakes, is becoming more concentrated, according to the water company, there has been a growing concern about levels of trihalomethanes, or THMs.
