Westpoint DOL Motor Pool – Wastewater Treatment PlantWest Point, New York
| Design Flow: | 26.5 m3/d or 7,000 GPD |
|---|---|
| Design Influent | 230 mg/l BOD5, 570 mg/l COD, 570 mg/l TSS and 35 mg/l TN |
| Effluent Quality: | Designed to meet stringent New York State standards – better than 10 mg/l BOD5, 10 mg/l TSS, 4 mg/l NH3-N, 10 mg/l TN and 1 mg/l P with disinfection. This plant was just started-up at the end of June so no results are yet available |
| Plant Configuration: | Custom steel tank with remotely installed pumps and blowers |
| Date Shipped: | April 2010 |
| Process Description: | MLE/MBR with alum dosing for phosphorus reduction plus UV disinfection |
| Project Details: | This plant is somewhat unusual because the normal design flow is quite low but a few times a year, when the College has significant events, the daily flow will increase significantly. Rather than design the plant for these occasional peak flows, the plant was designed with a larger-than-normal aerated flow equalization tank. This plant is installed indoors, in a maintenance garage building. Because of the potential for hydrocarbon contamination or other non-domestic wastes in the sewage stream, this plant was built utilizing the cMBR "SaniBrane®" ceramic membranes. The ceramic membranes are nearly indestructible and can be cleaned with high back-pressure, hot water and strong chemicals without damage. |
