PRODUCTS USED
A coal-buring power plant located in Northern Indiana contracted Delta Environmental (now Infiltrator) to construct a steel extended aeration package plant to replace an existing older, undersized unit to treat domestic sanitary waste generated by plant employees.
A lift station was used as a collection basin that pumped the wastewater to the treatment system. A heavy duty grinder was installed at the receiving end of the plant to reduce particle size of incoming solid waste prior to entering the treatment train. The design included a flow equalization chamber to maintain consistent flow rates to the secondary treatment chamber during peak hours via time-dosed controlled duplex non-clog submersible pumps. Water levels were continuously monitored using a VEGAPULS liquid level radar system.
Infiltrator provided the lift station, steel package plant, ancillary equipment and controls for a turn-key package on this project.
