STICKNEY WATER RECLAMATION PLANT
Design capacity: 1,400 mgd
Existing TP Effluent: 1-2mg/L
New TP Effluent Limit of 1.0 mg/L
• Optimizing biological phosphorus removal
• Minimizing phosphorus return loads (24%) from recycle streams

Phosphorus need (finite resource):
Population growth increases the need for phosphorus fertilizers
TOWARD A SUSTAINABLE PHOSPHORUS CYCLE
Phosphorus removal:
Point sources: more stringent phosphorus limits at WWTP’s
Recovery = resource and revenue source

WHAT HAPPENS IN THE ANAEROBIC ZONE
![Page 6: METROPOLITAN WATER RECLAMATION DISTRICT OF …...WHY DID WE MISS IT? •Need ORP of -300 mV – most anaerobic zones struggle to get -150 mV •Impossible to achieve with nitrates](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062603/5f22a1c3268e2065c303a16c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
WRONG!!!!!!!!!
• We were cultivating less productive PAOs, mostly of the species of Accumulibacter
• They prevailed since conditions were not ideal for more aggressive species like Tetrasphaera
• Tetrasphaera can ferment glucose and amino acids and other higher carbon forms and store phosphorus
• They actually produce VFA that allow a population of Accumulibacter to grow alongside them
• They can denitrify under anoxic conditions
• Why did we not grow them – not deep enough anaerobic conditions

MIXED LIQUOR FERMENTER (MLF)
• From experience at a number of plants fermentation of some of the mixed liquor was successful in achieving BioP and reducing nitrates
• Mostly influent wastewater has very low VFA and even low rbCOD that could be fermented in the anaerobic zone
• Solution – ferment some of the mixed liquor as happened in original pilot plant

WHY DID WE MISS IT?
• Need ORP of -300 mV – most anaerobic zones struggle to get -150 mV
• Impossible to achieve with nitrates or DO anywhere
• Most plants were over-mixed with turbulent surface entraining air
• Standard mixing energy 0.6 hp/kcf – need 0.08 hp/kcf (huge saving in energy)
• Too much air entrained in primary effluent
• Too much primary effluent per se
• Mixing with air – No-no

• Pursue ways to increase rbCOD
• Store sludge in primaries
• Gravity thickeners as fermenters
• Dedicated fermenters
Reducing # of PST will result in more pCOD – not efficient
Keep all PST but carry a sludge blanket
RECOMMENDATIONS
![Page 20: METROPOLITAN WATER RECLAMATION DISTRICT OF …...WHY DID WE MISS IT? •Need ORP of -300 mV – most anaerobic zones struggle to get -150 mV •Impossible to achieve with nitrates](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062603/5f22a1c3268e2065c303a16c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Breweries, soft drinks plant wastes have high carbon rbCOD. If pre-treated negotiate for discharging some without charges
• Install controls for RAS recycle to minimal
• Control DO in 4th pass
• Control discharge of Alum and Fe salts
• Automate air mixing of anaerobic zone – replace with mixers
• Install baffles between anaerobic and main aeration or more baffles to trap sludge for fermentation
• CONTROL THE ORP BELOW -300 mV in sludge blanket

WASSTRIP OPTION
Principle of Operation
• Engineered P release of waste activated sludge (WAS).
• Carbon for release can come from primary sludge fermentate, external source, or endogenously.
• Liquid portion from reactor (high in P & Mg) blended with centrate (high in NH3) before entering P recovery reactor.
Benefits
• Increases P recovery
• Reduces struvite formation in digesters
• Reduces P content in biosolids
• Less Mg addition to P recovery process
Disadvantages
• Addition of sizable reactor for process
