5 Background Corrosion Impacts 1991 USEPA report to congress 89 cities participating in the survey $6 billion spent on sewer rehabilitation 32 cities reported sewer collapses 81% were believed to be due to hydrogen sulfide corrosion. 70% of the respondents reported hydrogen sulfide corrosion at the treatment plant Evoqua Water Technologies LLC PAGE 5
6 Background Source of Hydrogen Sulfide 2014 Evoqua Water Technologies LLC PAGE 6
7 Background Mechanism of Concrete Corrosion Step 1 Aerobic bacteria deplete available oxygen Step 2 Anaerobic bacteria convert sulfate to sulfide Step 3 Sulfide combines with wastewater acidity to form hydrogen sulfide Step 4 Insoluble hydrogen sulfide escapes to headspace Step 5 Hydrogen sulfide is biologically oxidized to sulfuric acid Step 6 Sulfuric acid weakens the concrete structure Acid reacts with calcium hydroxide matrix H 2 SO 4 Concrete Pipe H 2 SO 4 H 2 SO 4 SO = H 24 S H + S = O 2 Biologically Active Slime Layer 2014 Evoqua Water Technologies LLC PAGE 7

24 Results of Samples Treated to Prevent H 2 S Exposure to an average of 3.5 ppmv over a two year period resulted in: No loss in compressive strength 0.2% reduction in weight of samples 2014 Evoqua Water Technologies LLC PAGE 24
25 Results of Untreated Samples Exposure to an average of 68.5ppmv over a two year period resulted in: 13% reduced compressive strength of samples 5.4% reduction in weight of samples 2014 Evoqua Water Technologies LLC PAGE 25
26 Conclusions 1. Presence of > 60 ppmv H2S impacted coupons 2. Presence of H2S resulted in mass loss of concrete (5% Less) 3. Presence of H2S resulted in loss of compressive strength (>10% lost in 24 months) 4. Treatment to eliminate H2S < 5 ppmv resulted in better concrete condition 2014 Evoqua Water Technologies LLC PAGE 26
