1 2015 Pacific Water Conference Activated Sludge Process Control: What s Important and How It s Easily Implemented February 2015
2 Presentation takeaways 1. MCRT/SRT is the only way to control the activated sludge process 2. MCRT/SRT controls whether a plant will nitrify and sludge quality (how the sludge flocculates, settles and compacts) 3. Wasting mixed liquor rather than RAS greatly simplifies MCRT/SRT control, but beware the recycle flow 4. NEORSD is constructing a wasting clarifier and it s going to be awesome 2

6 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a MLSS concentration
7 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Solids residence time (also MCRT)
8 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Influent flow
9 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a On-line aeration basin volume
10 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Influent inorganic TSS concentration
11 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Yield
12 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Decay rate
13 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Influent total BOD concentration
14 One of the most useful equations operators and engineers will ever know SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Secondary effluent soluble BOD concentration
15 What is in the control of operators? SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a Pretty much only the SRT (controlled by WAS rate)
16 Most commonly used strategies for WAS control 1. Control by constant MLSS or MLVSS concentration 2. Control by constant MLSS or MLVSS mass inventory 3. Control by constant F:M ratio 4. Control by constant SRT, MCRT, sludge age 16
17 This equation can be used to show that: SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a 1. The MLSS concentration is a response variable, so cannot be used as a control variable
18 This equation can be used to show that: SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a 2. The MLSS mass is a response variable, so cannot be used as a control variable
19 This equation can be used to show that: SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a 3. The MLVSS concentration is a response variable, so cannot be used as a control variable
20 This equation can be used to show that: SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a 4. The MLVSS mass is a response variable, so cannot be used as a control variable
21 This equation can be used to show that: SRT Q BOD MLSS = (ISS INF + Y g INF sbod EFF ) 1 + b SRT V a 5. The F:M ratio is a response variable, so cannot be used as a control variable
22 Another look (this is REALLY important) MLSS V a = SRT Q (ISS INF + Y g ) BOD INF sbod EFF 1 + b SRT My own experience
23 SRT is the ONLY way, and by the way, the other techniques don t work
24 Only one matters, forget the others 1. Control by constant MLSS or MLVSS concentration 2. Control by constant MLSS or MLVSS mass inventory 3. Control by constant F:M ratio 4. Control by constant SRT, MCRT, sludge age 24
25 Did I mention it doesn t work
26 The prospect of direct discharge from Southerly s first stage a game changer 1. Consistent effluent quality a must and, therefore, so is sludge quality. 2. Need to prevent nitrification. 26
27 Growth rate, G R, controlled by SRT G R = (1/SRT) + γ+ b Because γ and b are small G R (1/SRT) 27
28 Controlling growth rate in activated sludge is paramount 1. Controls sludge quality: How the sludge flocculates, settles and compacts 2. Controls whether or not nitrification will occur 28
29 SRT controls sludge (and effluent) quality and the number of rotifers
30 Either nitrifiersare in the mixed liqouror they re not; SRT controls
31 Calculating MCRT can be tedious MCRT = V a MLSS+ V blanket TSS blanket Q WAS TSS WAS + Q EFF TSS EFF
32 Simplifies if V blanket 0 and TSS EFF < 10 mg/l ( 0) SRT = V a MLSS Q WAS TSS WAS
33 Waste mixed liquor instead of RAS (TSS WAS = MLSS) SRT = V a MLSS Q WAS MLSS
34 Wow! Greatly Simplified! SRT = V a Q WAS If this is so easy, why don t we do it more often?
35 For the simple reason that the RAS is more concentrated TSS RAS = ( Q Q RAS + 1) MLSS For example, if Q RAS = 75% of Q MLSS = 2,000 mg/l, then TSS RAS = 4,700 mg/l
36 Rearranging equation to determine Q WAS needed for target SRT Q WAS = V a SRT target For example, if a 2-day SRT is targeted, this equation says that Q WAS has to be set equal to 1/2 the on-line aeration basin volume per day.
37 The wasting clarifier is born! N Existing Excess (Waste) Activated Sludge (EAS) FST 11 Aeration Tanks FST No. 1-6 Control ML flow to FST 5: Waste all settled solids from this FST only Existing EAS Forceman Gravity Belt Thickeners 37
38 SRT control is easy and elegant 1. How many N aeration basins are on line? 2. What SRT is needed to not nitrify and give best sludge and effluent quality. Existing Excess (Waste) Activated Sludge (EAS) FST Set mixed liquor flow to Va/SRTtarget to wasting clarifier (FST No. 5). Aeration Tanks FST No Waste all solids in underflow from wasting clarifier to GBTs Existing EAS Forceman 5. Return all solids from other FSTs to aeration basins; maintain low blankets Gravity Belt Thickeners 38
39 Opportunity for GBT optimization as well N Existing Excess (Waste) Activated Sludge (EAS) FST 11 Aeration Tanks FST No Waste all solids in underflow from wasting clarifier to GBTs Existing EAS Forceman Gravity Belt Thickeners 39
40 Presentation takeaways MCRT/SRT is the only way to control the activated sludge process MCRT/SRT controls whether a plant will nitrify and sludge quality (how the sludge flocculates, settles and compacts) Wasting mixed liquor rather than RAS greatly simplifies MCRT/SRT control, but beware the recycle flow NEORSD is constructing a wasting clarifier and it s going to be awesome 40
