Samstag Civil and Sanitary Engineer Bainbridge Island, WA Identify possible operating problems Check capacity Develop basis for potential changes to AB configuration to improve performance Initial Operations Analysis Flow Data from 1/2014 to 3/2015 Looked at operating data from 2014 through March 2015 Developed graphs of operating data Checked Michael Richards studies Final Effluent Flow Effluent Flows NPDES Permit Max Month Design Flow 30 per.

12 Comparison in Organisms Anaerobic Selector / Second Stage Anoxic Tentative Conclusions The existing configuration is probably getting very good nitrogen removal, but very little growth of phosphorus accumulating organisms which improve settling. Splitting Anaerobic / Anoxic Zones 1 and 2 into unaerated and aerobic zones offers no improvement Creating an anaerobic selector by moving the IR from the first to the second AB tank decreases nitrogen removal, but improves biological phosphorus organism growth. This should improve settleability (lower SVI) and increase capacity. Continue to identify filaments to determine type. If Microthrix Parvicella persists, consider PAX. Questions? Randal W.
