Breakwater Filtration System Design for Swim Basin
Contact Stabilization Process Analysis and Formulation
In this paper, the contact stabilization process is analyzed. In comparison to the conventional activated sludge process, there are a larger number of independent design variables involved...
Importance of Aeration Basin Detention Time in the Activated Sludge Process
Aeration basin detention time is a key design parameter for an activated sludge system at a wastewater treatment plant. The impacts of reducing the aeration time is illustrated by a case...
Control of
The paper reports on a study to determine the cause(s) of the biological imbalance and identify corrective measures. Project activities included: isolation and identification of filamentous...
Optimizing the Activated Sludge Process by Encouraging Futile Cycling
A study was conducted to demonstrate that cell yield in activated sludge processes can be decreased without increasing oxygen consumption by applying operating conditions that encourage...
Use of Water Hyacinths to Upgrade Treatment Plants
The primary objective of this research was to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing water hyacinths to upgrade effluents from heavily-loaded municipal wastewater treatment plants located...
Biological Phosphorus Removal Using a Fixed and Suspended Growth Combination: A First Year Appraisal
As an alternative to the activated sludge process for biological phosphorus removal, this paper discusses an alternative which avoids high costs of air supply and large suspended growth...
Dewatering Municipal Sewage Sludges?Selecting a Process
A sequential review is made of key considerations in selecting an optimum dewatering process, including its simplicity of operation and performance capabilities. Selection criteria further...
Comparison of Centrifuge Performance on Oxygen Activated Sludge
This paper compares the performance of centrifuges processing high purity oxygen activated sludge with units processing conventional activated sludge. Comparisons are made both for thickening...
Improved Centrifuge Designs for High Cake Solids
The new generation of advanced centrifuges pioneered by Humboldt Wedag can readily produce 30 ? 2% TS cake on most raw and digested primary and waste activated sludge, wherein the primary...
Disinfection of Wastewater Effluents with Electron Radiation
A full scale electron irradiation unit is being tested at the Virginia Key Wastewater Treatment Plant in Miami, Florida. On-going experimentation is evaluating the use of high energy electrons...
Must the Courts Resolve All Our Conflicts?
In June 1981, the Maryland Office of Environmental Programs issued a draft 'nutrient control strategy' for the Patuxent River as a first step in preparing a regional...
Renewing San Diego Pumping Station No. 64
Pump Station 64 has experienced a number of sewage overflows into Penasquitos Lagoon since 1979 (57 in total). The California Regional Water Quality Control Board (CRWQCB) issued a Cease...
