Hard Water, high TDS, high chlorine odor and taste Treatment for Council Bluffs IA municipal water supply
Like Omaha, Council Bluffs’ main source of water is the Missouri River. The secondary source is the Missouri River Alluvium. Well water is blended with the cold river water in the winter to minimize icing. This source water for Council Bluffs is problematic to begin with and requires a great deal of large-scale municipal water treatment.
There are two independent treatment trains at the Council Bluffs’ purification plant and four high service pumps that deliver water to the entire city. Lime is added in the process to approximately 70% of the water to raise the pH and precipitate magnesium and calcium ions. This softened water is then blended with un-softened water to adjust the pH and hardness. Soda Ash and Ferric Sulfate are added to complete the coagulation and softening process while filters with a granular activated carbon cap remove dissolved organic compounds. Chlorine is added along the way as a disinfectant and Fluoride is added as a prophylaxis. Ammonia is finally mixed in to convert the chlorine to chloramines to stabilize the chlorine residual and control disinfection by-products.
Despite this broad and extensive municipal treatment process, much of the water coming out of the tap in Council Bluffs’ is still hard, with high TDS and featuring a chlorine taste and odor from the treatment required to make it potable.

EcoWater Systems of Nebraska and Council Bluffs IA
The county seat of Pottawattamie County, Council Bluffs sits on the east bank of the Missouri River right across from Omaha, Nebraska. The population of Council Bluffs is north of 60,000, and along with neighboring Omaha to the west, it is part of the 60th-largest metropolitan area in the US with an estimated population of 865,350 in the Omaha-Council Bluffs metropolitan area.
The city, which was the historic starting point of the Mormon Trail, was named for an 1804 meeting of the Lewis and Clark Expedition with the Otoe tribe, which took place at Council Bluff, near present-day Fort Calhoun, Nebraska, 20 miles to the north. The present city of Council Bluffs was first settled by Sauganash and his Potawatomi band in 1838.
As more Indian tribes were pushed into the Council Bluffs area by white settlers, inter-tribal conflict increased, fueled by the illegal whiskey trade. The US Army built Fort Croghan in 1842 to keep order and try to control liquor traffic on the Missouri River.
Beginning in 1846, there was a large influx of Latter-day Saints into the area. By 1848, the town had become known as Kanesville, named for benefactor Thomas L. Kane. In 1852, the town was renamed Council Bluffs. It continued as a major outfitting point on the Missouri for the Emigrant Trail and Pike’s Peak Gold Rush, and entertained a lively steamboat trade. With the completion of the Chicago and North Western Railway into the city in 1867, the transcontinental railroad in 1869, and the Union Pacific Missouri River Bridge in 1872, Council Bluffs became a major railroad intersection. In fact, by 1930, Council Bluffs had grown into the U.S.’ fifth largest rail center. The railroads helped the city become a center for grain storage. Massive grain elevators continue to mark the city’s skyline in fact.
Restructuring of the railroad industry after the mid-20th century caused the loss of many jobs which moved offshore. By the late 20th century the city and region were suffering economic stagnation and a declining population. Downtown urban renewal was undertaken since to create a new future.
The liberalization of Iowa gambling laws was followed by the opening of The Bluffs Run Greyhound Park in 1986. By 2005 Council Bluffs was the 19th largest casino market in the United States, with revenue equaling nearly $434 million.
