3 ThermAer Discussion 1. Definitions 2. Process 3. System Component Parts 4. Operational Information 5. Storage Nitrification/Denitrification Reactor (SNDR) 6. Why use ThermAer?
4 ATAD A - Autothermal T Thermophilic A - Aerobic D - Digestion Self-heating!! Exothermic reaction. High temperature typically above 131 F. No outside heat source is used. Oxic conditions (this is key), high mixing intensity and aeration. Independent control of mixing and aeration is imperative. Biodegradation of volatile solids microorganisms degrade to CO 2, H 2 O and ammonia. high-temperatures provide very high biokinetics!!
5 Thermophilic Microorganisms Thermopiles love high temperatures They are one of oldest microorganisms on the planet Very Resilient to changes and loadings High Endogenous Decay Coefficient and therefore Very Low Yields
6 Aerobic Sludge Digestion Micro-organisms Organic Solids + O 2 Nutrients Bioresistant Solids + Heat + CO 2 + H 2 O + NH 4 +
7 Simplified Sludge Digestion Aerobic C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + Heat (2880 kj/gmol) Anaerobic C 6 H 12 O 6 3CH 4 + 3CO 2 + Heat (430 kj/gmol)
8 Autothermal Thermophilic Aerobic Digestion (ATAD) Biologically Produces Autothermal Temperature of F without an outside heat source Degrades a High Concentration of Total and Volatile Solids Produces a High Concentration of Ammonia ppm Elevated Temperature and ph, Strips Ammonia from Liquid Phase into the Off-Gas
9 Time (Hr) = 50,070,000 / 24 x *T (where T = C) 55 C = ~24 hours 60 C = ~5 hours 65 C = ~1 hour Time (hours) o C Temperature ( o C)
10 Biosolids Train Off-Gas Biofilter Land Application WWTP Primary & Secondary Thickener ATAD SNDR Dewater Compost 5-7% TS Centrate/Filtrate Recycled to WWTP 2-3% TS (50% TS Reduction) Liquid Land Application Multiple Units Provide Redundancy & Allow Flexible Operation The Mesophilic SNDR process Finishes Biosolids Processing & Allows for Campaign Dewatering Other types of waste streams such as septage, grease trap waste, etc. can be added to the ThermAer. Existing tankage can be utilized for the ThermAer and SNDR. Batch feed and transfer are utilized for the process.
11 Process Flow ATAD SNDR
12 Applications Thickened Feed Solids - Minimum of 3% 100% Waste Activated Sludge (WAS) Primary Sludge Septage High FOG wastes Other high COD wastes Industrial Wastes
13 Waste & Feed Cycle - Two Options Semi-Batch Draw & Fill Alternate Feed with Two ATADs -- Waste from ATAD to SNDR -- Feed ATAD with Raw Sludge -- Dewater from SNDR -- Waste from either ATAD into SNDR -- Feed that ATAD for 24 hours -- Waste from 2 nd ATAD -- Feed 2 nd ATAD -- Isolate 1 st ATAD for 24 hours -- Dewater from SNDR
14 Autothermal Thermophilic Aerobic Digestion Conceptual Reactor Mechanisms 1 Extremely rapid sludge digestion and biochemical breakdown of organics Biosolids!!! thermophilic bacteria
15 Rapid oxygen transfer required to satisfy the high rate of bacterial activity 2 Oxygen IN NOTE: 1 Low DOsat (~4 mg DO/L) 2 - DOs at or below 0.5 mg/l are typical 3 Under very high oxygen uptake you can go micro-aerobic in spite of aeration Biosolids
16 Oxygen 3 Rapid carbon dioxide release needed to avoid ph drop IN OUT Biosolid Carbon Dioxide
17 Foam buildup at surface (due to proteins & lower surface tension) Oxygen 4 Biosolids IN OUT Carbon Dioxide NOTE: Foam control is essential
18 Heat loss at surface is important (the foam blanket actually reduces heat loss) Oxygen 5 OUT IN OUT Heat! Biosolids Carbon Dioxide NOTE: Excessive heat loss is undesirable! Highly efficient oxygen transfer is crucial to limit heat losses and it will also help with foam production
19 NOTE: At typical ph of 8+, and high temperature, reduced nitrogen tends to switch to free ammonia Free ammonia gas (NH 3 ) will be released 6 Oxygen IN OUT OUT OUT Ammonia OUT Heat! Biosolids Carbon Dioxide

22 INPUTS OUTPUTS Human Body & Food Air Survival Warm Body Warm Breath Automobile & Gas Air Transport Hot Engine Hot Exhaust Aerobic Reactor Sludge & Air New Bacteria Hot Reactor Hot Off-Gas Aerobic metabolism is more oxidative and has a higher net heat release but also loses more energy through off-gas Anaerobic Reactor Sludge Air New Bacteria Hot Reactor Hot Off-Gas Anaerobic metabolism is less oxidative and has a lower heat release due to methane formation; also note important point that off-gas flow is far smaller Air Methane

51 Why ThermAer?? 55-70% VS Destruction Class A Biosolids and therefore many disposal opportunities. Typically 50% (or better) TS Destruction and therefore dramatically reduced disposal costs. Solids Can be Liquid Land Applied or Dewatered. If Dewatering is chosen, an Increase in Cake Solids up to 25% can be expected
