NORTH CAROLINA WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT

North Carolina Wastewater Treatment Plant

The
Challenge/Problem 


A North Carolina municipal wastewater plant with a flow of 60 MGD was struggling with excessive sludge production, plant upsets associated with variable influent loading, and rising odor complaints within the plant. Plant operators were seeking to achieve the following objectives:

Specific problems included:

  • Reduce sludge generation rates
  • Improve effluent quality related to BOD, TSS, NH3, and P
  • The RBC unites were emitting odrs and had poor biomass buildup on the rotating discs
  • Signifi cantly reduce odor impacts to worker and neighbors

SciCorp Treatment Plan and Execution


SciCorp engineers partnered with plant operators to identify a BIOLOGIC™ SR2 treatment program designed to achieve the treatment objectives identified by the WWTP.

  • SciCorp began dosing the sludge and the headworks of the WWTP with BIOLOGIC™ SR2

Success


After a 60 day trial, the data collected by the wastewater treatment plant demonstrated that SciCorp achieved significant benefits for the WWTP.

Including:

Elimination of consistent plant upsets

Elimination of odors throughout the plant

20%
Reduction

Reduction in TSS concentrations in effluent

50%
Decrease

Decrease in ammonia (NH3) concentrations in effluent

34%
Reduction

Reduction of sludge produced (annual costs savings + $250,000)

Issues Avoided


As a result of this trial SciCorp demonstrated that the WWTP was able to avoid:

  • Excessive operation costs
  • Effluent fines and compliance problems
  • Odor complaints
  • Plant upsets
