Engineering

Globaltech provides consulting engineering services for the complete life cycle of infrastructure projects. From conceptual planning, design, and permitting to services during construction, and commissioning, we deliver the services that are needed to meet your needs during any point in the project life cycle.  We have completed over 250 engineering consulting projects to date, ranging from a few thousand dollars to over $2 million. Our staff is comprised of experienced environmental, civil, electrical, chemical and mechanical engineers who are also uniquely skilled project managers, capable of providing clients with a smooth transition from design to construction completion.

We currently hold five separate multi-year continuing engineering contracts with local public utilities, providing broad-based engineering services for water and wastewater systems, reclaimed water, and water resources.

Engineering Services

We See the Big Picture

Because Globaltech engineers are accustomed to working in a design build environment, we bring insights and “lessons learned” that benefit our water utility clients. Our consulting engineers are big-picture thinkers focused on practical implementation (cost and constructability) and long-term (life-cycle) value. We have the Florida permitting, regulatory, and compliance knowledge needed to deliver quality projects on your timeline.

Water Project Experience

Globaltech engineers help to optimize the infrastructure that allows utilities to provide safe, affordable drinking water to growing communities. Using our extensive hydrogeologic, hydraulic, and treatment process knowledge, we offer project experience in the following areas:

  • Master planning and sequencing
  • Permitting
  • Source water development (groundwater hydrology, permitting, logging)
  • Alternative water supply
  • Groundwater and surface water treatment
  • Raw water transmission
  • Pump stations
  • Well rehabilitation
  • Water quality monitoring
  • Water storage (including aquifer storage and recovery)
  • Water distribution
  • Standby and prime power systems
  • Chemical storage and metering
  • Asset management

 

Water Treatment Technologies

  • Globaltech’s water treatment experience encompasses numerous treatment processes in a variety of source waters, including groundwater, surface water, and seawater applications. We are thoroughly knowledgeable in conventional technologies involving the application of coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, lime softening, filtration, and disinfection.
  • We also specialize in advanced treatment technologies to meet regulatory or water quality requirements, including membrane processes (nanofiltration, reverse osmosis, ozonation), enhanced coagulation, activated carbon, and ion exchange. Our more than 30 years of experience includes facilities producing from under 1.0 to over 100 million gallons of drinking water daily.

Wastewater Project Experience

Globaltech’s wastewater treatment engineering services include process design, process analysis and optimization, equipment evaluation and selection, life cycle cost evaluations, design review, operator training, and operations support. Our project experience includes:

  • Master Planning & sequencing
  • Permitting
  • Pretreatment for screenings and grit removal
  • Conventional treatment: activated sludge process
  • Advanced treatment and nutrient removal
  • Wastewater collection: lift stations, force mains, gravity sewers (design, assessment and rehabilitation)
  • Effluent reuse: filtration, disinfection, and nutrient removal
  • Sludge treatment and management plans: dewatering, stabilization and disposal
  • Disposal, including Deep Injection Wells
  • Standby and prime power systems
