3 Nitrogen Cycle The Big Picture USGS,
4 Presentation Overview Nitrogen in wastewater On-site sewage nitrogen reduction methods Nitrogen reduction research project Questions and answers 3
5 Why is Nitrogen a Concern? Human Health Drinking water limit of 10 mg/l NO 3 Harmful algal blooms (HABs) nitrogen and phosphorus 4
6 Why is Nitrogen a Concern? Ecosystem Health N is the limiting nutrient for eutrophication of many coastal waters and some freshwater systems Increased nutrient loading can be linked to: Algal blooms Loss of eelgrass and other seagrass habitat Low dissolved oxygen (hypoxia) 5
7 Nitrogen in Wastewater Sources of Nitrogen in the Home 12% 5% Kitchen sinks, dishwasher, garbage disposal (1.7 grams/person/day) 83% Bath & utility sinks, laundry, showers, bathtubs (0.8 grams/person/day) Toilet (12 grams/person/day) 6
8 Nitrogen in Garbage Disposal Waste Parameter Increase in Pollutant Loading (%) Suspended solids Biochemical oxygen demand Total Nitrogen 3-10 Total phosphorus 2-3 Fats, oils, and grease EPA,
9 Nitrogen in Toilet Wastes Urine 80%- 90% Nitrogen ~10.9 grams per day ~ 9 lbs/year Feces 10%-20% Nitrogen ~1.1 grams per day ~1lb/year 8
10 Wastewater Nitrogen Management Approaches Source diversion Post-septic tank treatment Design of the soil dispersal component (drainfield) Source Pretreatment Post-Septic Tank Treatment Soil Dispersal Component 9
11 Source Diversion Separate and compost food waste Divert and recycle nutrients Microflush toilets for blackwater and separate treatment of greywater Waterless toilets for blackwater and separate treatment of greywater No-mix toilets that keep urine separate from feces 10
12 Source Diversion: Food Waste Separation Screen kitchen sink drain Compost food waste Don t use garbage grinders 11
13 Source Diversion: Microflush Toilets Use small amount of water; air transports the feces, urine, and toilet paper Usually connected to holding tank Household applications more common in Scandinavia Maintenance required Can divert up to 80% of nitrogen 12
14 Source Diversion: Waterless Toilets Courtesy of Clivus Multrum, Inc. Courtesy of Sun-Mar Corp. Waste composted or burned in the toilet system or collected and retained for treatment elsewhere Many designs and models available Maintenance required Can divert up to 80% of nitrogen Courtesy of Research Products/Blankenship 13
15 Source Diversion: No-mix Toilets Separate bowls for urine and feces; urine diverted to separate holding tank Urine can be recycled to agriculture Proven track record in Europe Maintenance required Can remove up to 80% of nitrogen 14
16 On-site Wastewater Treatment: Nitrogen Removal Two step process: 1) nitrify nitrogen compounds to NO 3 (nitrification) 2) denitrify NO 3 to nitrogen gas (denitrification) Organic N NH 4 + NO 2 - NO 3 - N 2 Ammonification Nitrification Denitrification (Aerobic) (Anoxic) 15
17 Conventional On-Site Sewage Systems (OSS) Risers Inlet Scum Sludge Outlet ( mg/l) Avg. 64 mg/l TN 16
18 SeptiTech Wastewater Treatment System Recirculating biological polystyrene trickling filter EPA ETV: avg. 64% TN removal Effluent TN: avg.14 mg/l Costs: $9,000 17
19 MicroFAST Wastewater Treatment System Fixed-film activated sludge system EPA ETV: avg. 51% TN removal Effluent TN: avg. 19 mg/l Manufacturer promotes at 70% TN removal Costs: $6,000 18
20 AdvanTex Wastewater Treatment System Recirculating attached growth textile filter 70% TN removal Effluent TN: avg mg/l in field Costs: $6,500 19
21 Biological Nitrogen Removal: Simplest form Denitrification bed Nitrified Influent Nitrogen gases lined 20
22 Denitrification Project Design Problem: N removals OSS are highly variable Limited treatment options Regional environmental and water source affects on N removal not well-known Objectives: Maximize N removal efficiencies Verify performance objective (>75% TN removal) Expand reliable, affordable options Methods: Partner with UW & Ecology to: Use ETV Nutrient Reduction Protocol Develop standards & guidance 21
