Water & Wastewater Treatment Equipment Serving Oklahoma City, OK
Precision lime slaking, biosolids stabilization, drying, storage, and truck loading systems engineered by RDP Technologies for Oklahoma City and Central Oklahoma municipal facilities.
Trusted Process Equipment for Oklahoma City Water & Wastewater Plants
For over 45 years, RDP Technologies has been building robust equipment, backed by dependable process performance, based upon a foundation of practical technologies that simply perform. Oklahoma City-area utilities count on RDP for clean, accurate, reliable systems that are simple and easy to maintain.
Biosolids Storage & Precision Truck Loading Systems
Oklahoma City Utilities Department operates several wastewater treatment plants including the South Canadian and Deer Creek facilities, serving more than 700,000 residents across one of the largest geographic municipal boundaries in the country. Surrounding utilities in Norman, Edmond, Midwest City, and Moore manage additional treatment capacity across the Oklahoma City metro region. Daily biosolids volumes move to land application and beneficial reuse sites across the agricultural plains of central and western Oklahoma. Dependable storage and loadout equipment is essential to keeping operations smooth through dramatic seasonal temperature swings and severe weather disruptions. RDP Technologies engineers biosolids storage systems and precision truck loading systems that automate the full flow from dewatering through to the departing truck.
Moving floor technology built into live bottom bin storage keeps sticky sludge cake flowing reliably through Oklahoma’s punishing summer heat and winter ice storms alike, eliminating the bridging and rat-holing common to conventional steep-walled hoppers. Sludge cake truck loading runs automatically through the precision truck loading system, with most loads completed within minutes and held to within a couple hundred pounds of the operator’s target weight.
Three decades and approximately three hundred biosolids conveying equipment installations have refined a layout that keeps trucks clean, departure times predictable, and operator involvement minimal at the bay. Because the cycle runs without continuous attendance, Oklahoma City-area plant staff can redirect labor toward higher-value work elsewhere in the facility. For utilities managing tornado season operational planning and routine hauler rotations to agricultural land application sites, that automation directly improves daily throughput and operational resilience.
Biosolids Lime Stabilization & Pasteurization Solutions in Oklahoma City, OK
Oklahoma’s extensive agricultural and rangeland base supports active beneficial reuse of biosolids, with Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) administering oversight under federal EPA 503 standards. Both Class A and Class B pathways remain viable for utilities across the state, and Class A treatment is increasingly considered for the additional market flexibility it provides. RDP Technologies has been delivering EPA 503 compliant lime-based solutions since the federal rules were first established, supporting both Class A biosolids treatment and Class B biosolids stabilization at facilities across the Southern Plains region.
The EnVessel Pasteurization biosolids pasteurization system is one of the most widely deployed Class A processes nationally, with more than 70 installations operating across the United States. EnVessel pairs lime addition with controlled supplemental heat instead of relying on heavy lime overdosing, keeping chemical demand reasonable while reliably hitting the time, temperature, and pH thresholds required for full pathogen kill.
Enhanced Pasteurization moves the cycle into a sealed sequencing batch reactor where lime drives pH above 12 and controlled heating completes disinfection. Both pathways serve as proven wastewater pathogen reduction equipment, supported by published case studies and decades of operational data from municipalities nationwide. For Oklahoma City-area facilities planning capital upgrades against ODEQ requirements or evaluating Class A expansion, these are regulator-recognized options with strong long-term track records.
Lime Slaking & Feed Systems for Oklahoma City Water Treatment Facilities
Oklahoma City Utilities Department operates the Hefner, Draper, and Overholser water treatment plants, drawing primarily from Lake Hefner, Lake Stanley Draper, and Lake Overholser to serve the metro area. The City additionally relies on supply from Lake Atoka and Canton Lake through long-distance raw water pipelines reaching across the state. The combination of variable lake source water quality, naturally hard groundwater from the surrounding region’s wells, and growing demand makes lime feed essential for softening, pH adjustment, and corrosion control. RDP Technologies designs lime slaking and feed systems engineered for the precision and reliability that high-volume Southern Plains municipal operations require year-round.
The Tekkem family of lime slakers for water treatment applies load cell technology to combine a measured weight of quicklime with a measured weight of water, holding the slaking reaction within the proven 180°F to 190°F temperature window. This weight-based control approach enables precision lime dosing systems with slurry concentration adjustable from one percent up to thirty percent based on plant requirements.
The same Tekkem platform converts to operate as a hydrated lime feed system without any physical modifications, providing flexibility as lime market conditions shift across Oklahoma and the broader Southern Plains. A continuous slurry delivery loop combined with pinch valve and flow meter dosing supports accurate feed at multiple application points within a facility. With only one moving part inside the reaction tank, maintenance demands stay infrequent and predictable for plants running around the clock through Oklahoma’s extreme summer demand peaks.
Custom Engineering & Process Equipment Support Serving Oklahoma City
Water and wastewater infrastructure across the Oklahoma City metro has expanded continuously to support sustained population growth and one of the largest geographic municipal footprints in the country. Plants here must operate through severe weather events including tornadoes, ice storms, and prolonged drought conditions, while maintaining reliability across a service territory that spans hundreds of square miles. RDP Technologies brings over 45 years of custom process equipment engineering experience to capital projects across Oklahoma, Cleveland, Canadian, and surrounding counties in the Oklahoma City metro region.
As a wastewater treatment equipment manufacturer that handles design, fabrication, and controls programming under one roof, we adapt to existing tankage, constrained site footprints, and operator workflows rather than forcing a generic package into a difficult location. Our intelligent control platforms integrate cleanly with SCADA systems and meet the detailed reporting expectations of Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality, regional water authorities, and EPA Region 6 oversight.
We engage directly with municipal engineers, consulting firms, and plant operations staff from early scoping through commissioning and long-term technical support. Robust equipment, dependable process performance, and practical technologies that simply perform are the principles that have guided every project we deliver. Oklahoma City-area facilities benefit from working with a single accountable manufacturer that designs, builds, and stands behind the equipment for the long haul.
Biosolids Drying Systems for Oklahoma City Wastewater Plants
As Oklahoma City continues to grow and biosolids hauling logistics evolve across the Southern Plains, biosolids drying systems offer a strategic capital investment for cutting hauling tonnage and unlocking expanded reuse market access. The dried product fits well into Oklahoma’s established agricultural and rangeland beneficial reuse channels. The RDP-Fenton wastewater sludge dryer operates on a repeating batch cycle that allows drying time to be adjusted to match the natural variation in sludge cake solids concentration coming off the dewatering line.
Batch sludge drying equipment handles those upstream variations cleanly, whereas continuous-flow dryers often struggle when feed quality shifts unexpectedly. Operators in the field have repeatedly noted how little daily attention the system requires once a stable recipe is dialed in.
The dried product comes out significantly reduced in volume and weight, lowering trucking costs and opening pathways into fertilizer, soil amendment, and energy recovery markets across Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, and the broader Southern Plains region. Pairing the dryer with upstream RDP lime feed or storage equipment gives Oklahoma City wastewater plants a fully integrated biosolids handling line backed by a single manufacturer with consistent controls and ongoing support. Long service life and ease of operation were the design priorities from the start, and that focus shows up clearly in real-world performance data from installed sites across the country.
