Lagoon System 0.01 MGD Municipalities using lagoon systems for wastewater treatment are often challenged with accumulating solids in their treatment ponds. Municipal wastewater carries high organic substrate loads that can inhibit proper wastewater processing....
One of the most persistent challenges in lagoon wastewater treatment is solids (sludge) management. Lagoon systems are designed to reduce organic solids during wastewaterprocessing. Built up sludge is typically dredged from lagoon systems with heavy equipment. Once...
Groundwater Recharge Basin 0.03 MGD Wastewater storage basins receiving discharge from municipal treatment plants can accumulate solids. With bioaugmentation, utilities can increase the biomass in wastewater systems to more effectively reduce solids.1 The following...
Mechanical Plant Collection System 0.3 MGD Fats, oils, and grease (FOG) build-up in wastewater collection lines is a persistent issue that has plagued many municipalities. Challenges arise when FOG and solids cause blockages in the transport pipes carrying influent...
Evaporative Lagoon 0.9 MGD Sludge accumulation is common in municipal lagoon systems. These processes are often overloaded with poorly degraded solids in influent wastewater flows. Toimprove solids reduction and overall treatment quality in the above lagoon systems,...
Wastewater Lagoon System 0.2 MGD Municipal wastewater lagoon systems are often challenged with solids accumulation due to high organic loadings. Excess sludge can severely inhibit the treatment process in these systems. Furthermore, to avoid the high cost and labor...
