1 2017 APWA NC Stormwater Management Division Conference Greenville, NC Evaluation of Pollutants in Wastewater Produced from Air Conditioning Cleaning Operations City of Durham Public Works Department - Stormwater & GIS Services Jonathan Baker and Patrick Hogan PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT STORMWATER & GIS SERVICES DIVISION 101 City Hall Plaza Durham N.C P F Jonathan.Baker@durhamnc.gov Durham Where Great Things Happen
2 Background Information
3 Why do companies clean air conditioning units? Prevent coil and fin corrosion and prolong the life of the unit Improve or maintain the unit s energy efficiency (Carrier, 2009) Contamination on condenser fins of air conditioner unit at a commercial property in Durham, NC (Carrier, 2009)
4 How do companies typically clean air conditioning units?
5 Why did we conduct this kind of study? In 2014, City of Durham staff identified two illicit discharges from coil cleaning operations Private Property City Owned Property
6 Regulatory Drivers for Durham Phase I Stormwater Program required under the City s NPDES permit City Stormwater Management & Pollution Control Ordinance Streams on the State s 303(d) List for Impaired Waters: Copper Zinc Dissolved Oxygen Turbidity Biological Impairment TMDLs Jordan Lake (chlorophyll-a) Northeast Creek (fecal coliform) Third Fork Creek (turbidity) Nutrient Management Strategies Jordan Lake Falls Lake Neuse River Basin
7 Study Design
8 Purpose and Scope of the Study Identify and quantify pollutants from AC coil cleaning operations Quantify annual pollutant loads Validate the requirements of the City s Stormwater Ordinance
9 Monitoring Plan City of Durham Stormwater & GIS Services Local HVAC Maintenance Company Site 1 Site 2 Site 3 Sampled in May 2015 Located on ground level Estimated as medium level of dirtiness Cleaned with tap water and product with ph of 9 Sampled in May 2015 Located on ground level Estimated as high level of dirtiness Cleaned with tap water and product with ph of 14 Sampled in July 2015 Located on rooftop Estimated as low level of dirtiness Cleaned with tap water only

31 Annual Pollutant Loads
32 Calculating Annual Number of AC Units Cleaned Surveys were distributed to 17 companies that service and clean commercial air conditioning units in Durham 6 companies responded to the survey
33 Calculating Annual Pollutant Loads 1. Pollutant loads were calculated for each composite sample per cleaning event 2. Annual pollutant loads were calculated for each event 3. Annual pollutant loads were averaged across all sites
34 Annual Loads: Metals
35 Annual Loads: Nutrients
36 Annual Loads: TSS & BOD
37 Summary 3 commercial AC units 3 levels of contamination 3 cleaning methods Untreated domestic WW AC Coil Cleaning WW Higher concentrations of Cd, Cu, Zn, TN, BOD and TSS than in untreated domestic wastewater

J: Qualifier indicates the estimated reported value is between the laboratory MDL and the PQL. J7: Qualifier indicates the estimated reported value is between the laboratory MDL and PQL, although the value may not be accurate because blank contamination is evident. U Qualifier: indicates the analyte was not detected at a concentration greater than the detection limit. Gray Cells: Total Nitrogen was not able to be calculated at Sites 2 and 3 because of U qualifier on the corresponding TKN results.
