1 INFORMATION TO CONSULTANTS for ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT (C3) RFP E CBJ Biosolids Belt Dryer System ISSUED BY: City and Borough of Juneau ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT 155 South Seward Street Juneau, Alaska Date Issued: June 9, 2015 The following information is posted online. Please refer to the CBJ Engineering Contracts Division webpage at: This is not an addendum. INFORMATION ITEMS: Question: We understand that a CBJ sent samples to Andritz to have them study the dewaterability of the Juneau sludge. I understand this was a study that was done with an Andritz centrifuge recently. Could you please send a copy of these dewatering test results to us so we could review? Answer: Two lab reports performed on sludge from the Juneau Douglas Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Mendenhall Wastewater Treatment Planta are attached. These results represent two sludge samples taken on December 3, 2014 and shall be used for informational purposes only. The samples are not representative of all sludge that will be treated by a belt dryer system; variations in sludge occur. The dryer performance criteria in the RFP establish the parameters for operation and treatment.

4 Opportunity No.: Laboratory No.: L ANDRITZ LABORATORY REPORT COMPANY : City and Borough of Juneau Juneau, AK PROJECT : Juneau-Douglas Treatment Plant SAMPLE TYPE : Aerobically Digested Sludge DATE : December 15, 2014 Introduction: Five (5) gallons of sludge and dewatered cake samples were received in the ANDRITZ laboratory from the Borough of Juneau AK, on December 3, 2014, for Centrifuge and Belt Filter Press (BFP) dewatering tests. The sludge sample was collected at Juneau-Douglas Treatment Plant (JDTP). The JDTP, with a design capacity of 2.76 million gallons a day (MGD) treats an average flow of 0.96 MGD. The influent wastewater is treated in aerated basins after coarse screening and grit removal. Sludge from the clarification process is digested aerobically and dewatered using a BFP (manufacturer and model unknown). The customer is inquiring into replacing the existing BFP with an ANDRITZ High Performance Decanter Centrifuge to produce drier cake for drying or incineration. Objectives: The specific objectives of these laboratory tests were: 1. Analyze the sludge and cake sample for physical characteristics. 2. Conduct polymer evaluation tests to select the most effective polymer for centrifuge and BFP dewatering. 3. Conduct ANDRITZ 2.0m SMX -S8 Quantum BFP simulation tests and determine the achievable cake dryness from BFP dewatering. 4. Conduct Centrifuge spin-down tests and determine the anticipated cake dryness from an ANDRITZ Decanter Centrifuge.

5 Opportunity No.: Laboratory No.: L Conclusions: The results of laboratory testing indicated that: 1. The sample was brown in color and emitted earthy odors. It contained 0.88%TS (Total Solids) and 0.81%TSS (Total Suspended Solids), the volatile solids content was 80.5% of TS and the Capillary Suction Time (CST) was 26.0 seconds. A particle size analysis conducted on the sludge indicated a fine particle size with 83.4% of TSS less than 45 microns. Centrifuge spin-down test conducted on the raw sample produced a plug solids content of 6.1%TS and a clear supernatant. The sludge sample (as received) and spin-down tubes are shown below: Sludge / ton Spin-down Tubes The cake sample received had a dryness of 14.5%TS. 2. Several emulsion and dry polymers were tested on the sludge sample to select the most effective polymer for BFP and centrifuge dewatering. Ashland 857BS is the most effective dry polymer tested at active dosage rates of 14±1 and 25±1 lbs/ton TSS for BFP and Centrifuge dewatering respectively. Polydyne C9530 is the most effective emulsion polymer tested at 27±1 and 40±1 active lbs/ton TSS for both BFP and Centrifuge dewatering respectively. Emulsion polymers produced considerably higher cake dryness (2 3 percentage points) compared to the dry polymers but the dosage rate was high. 3. ANDRITZ 2.0m SMX -S8 Quantum BFP simulation test was conducted on the sludge using C-9530 and 857BS. A cake dryness of 15.9%TS was achieved using C9530 (27.7 active lbs/ton TSS) at a throughput of 365 lbs/hr DS (83 GPM), and 14.9%TS at a throughout of 200 lbs/hr DS when testing Ashland 857BS. Cake produced using 857BS was thin and difficult to doctor compared to that produced using C The simulation tests were conducted at a low speed (4 FPM) and belt tension (35 PLI).

11 Opportunity No.: Laboratory No.: L Discussion: The sludge feed solids content was 0.81%TSS and volatile solids content of 80.5% of TS. The cake sample from the on-site BFP had a dryness of 14.5%TS. BFP simulation tests conducted on the sample produced cake drynesses in the range of 14 16%TS depending on the type of polymer used. Emulsion polymers were more effective but estimated dosage rates were high compared to the dry polymers. Centrifuge dewatering can produce the required cake dryness 20%TS (±1) by using emulsion polymers. Dry polymers also produced higher cake dryness (17 19 %TS) compared to the current BFP dewatering. Attached are photographs of the screen analysis and lab sample data sheets for the sample received for reference and comparison. The remaining untested sludge will be disposed into the city sewer.

18 Opportunity No.: Laboratory No.: L ANDRITZ LABORATORY REPORT COMPANY : City and Borough of Juneau Juneau, AK PROJECT : Mendenhall WWTP SAMPLE TYPE : Waste Activated Sludge (WAS) from Sequence Batch Reactors (SBR) DATE : December 17, 2014 Introduction: Five (5) gallons of sludge and cake samples were received in the ANDRITZ laboratory from the City and Borough of Juneau, AK, on December 3, 2014, for dewatering tests simulating a Belt Filter Press (BFP) and a Decanter Centrifuge. The sludge sample was collected at the Mendenhall Wastewater Treatment Plant (MWWTP). The MWWTP (design flow 3.1 MGD and average flow 2.26 MGD) treats the influent wastewater in Sequence Batch Reactors (SBR) after coarse screening and grit removal without primary treatment. Sludge from the SBR s is dewatered using a BFP (manufacturer and model unknown). The customer is inquiring into replacing the existing BFP with an ANDRITZ High Performance Decanter Centrifuge to produce drier cake for drying or incineration. Objectives: The specific objectives of these laboratory tests were to: 1. Analyze the sludge and cake sample for physical characteristics. 2. Conduct polymer evaluation tests to select the most effective polymer for centrifuge and BFP dewatering. 3. Conduct ANDRITZ 2.0m SMX -S8 Quantum BFP simulation tests and determine the achievable cake dryness from BFP dewatering. 4. Conduct Centrifuge spin-down tests and determine the anticipated cake dryness from an ANDRITZ Decanter Centrifuge.

19 Opportunity No.: Laboratory No.: L Conclusions: The results of laboratory testing indicated that: 1. The sample was brown in color and emitted earthy odors. It had a feed solids content of 0.74%TSS (Total Suspended Solids), the volatiles solids content was 91% of TS (Total Solids) and, the Capillary Suction Time (CST) was 47.0 seconds. It had a fine particle size distribution with 79.6% of TSS less than 45 microns. Centrifuge spin-down test conducted on the raw sample at 3000 G s for 5 minutes produced a plug solids content of 5.6%TS. The sludge (as received) and spin-down tubes are shown below: L Spin-down Tubes The cake sample received had a dryness of 14.5%TS. The sample had a very high volatile solids content compared to typical WAS samples tested in the ANDRITZ laboratory (~80% of TS). Sludges with high volatile solids are difficult to dewater and require high polymer dosage due to its high organic solids content (fats, oils, grease etc.) 2. Ashland 857BS was the most effective dry polymer tested on the sludge at active dosage rates of 15±1 and 18±1 lbs/ton TSS for BFP and centrifuge dewatering. BASF 8868FS was the most effective emulsion polymer tested at 20±1 and 29±1 active lbs/ton TSS for BFP and centrifuge dewatering. Emulsion polymers were more effective in conditioning the sludge and produced higher cake dryness compared to the dry polymers tested.

25 Opportunity No.: Laboratory No.: L Discussion: The sample contained 0.78%TS and 0.74%TSS and had a very high volatile solids content of 91.0% of TS. The BFP simulation test conducted on the sludge sample produced lower cake dryness (13.5%TS) compared to the field dryness (14.5%TS). This may be due to variation in chemical conditioning or throughput considerations. A cake dryness of 17-19%TS can be anticipated from an ANDRITZ Decanter Centrifuge using emulsion polymers. Dry polymers for centrifuge dewatering can also improve the achievable cake dryness from the existing BFP dewatering but, the impact is lower compared to emulsion polymers. Attached are photographs of the screen analysis and lab sample data sheets for the sample received for reference and comparison. The remaining untested sludge will be disposed into the city sewer.
