PREFACE
The videotape series you are about to see was prepared to introduce
the Treatability Manual to State and EPA regional offices. The purpose
of the videotape and workbook is to brief potential users of the Manual
about its content and uses during the next round of NPDES permits. The
format of the videotape series is:
Tape 1 Introductory Remarks
Tape 2 Description of Contents
Tape 3 Permit Exercise - Gum and Wood Chemicals
Tape U Permit Exercise - Textile Mills
Tape 5 Panel Discussion
This workbook is designed for use in conjunction with the videotape.
A summary of each tape is included in this workbook along with an
identification of the participants and any illustrations used or pages
cited in the videotape. Also included is a copy of the Federal Register
notice of the availability of the Manual. The notice summarizes the
genesis, content, and potential utility of the Manual.
NPDES Permit Applications #1 and #2 for the Gum and Wood Chemicals
Exercise and the Textile Mills Exercise should be reviewed prior to
viewing Tapes 3 and k. Additionally, it will clarify the presentations
if you read the tape summary before viewing each tape.

TAPE 1
This portion of the Treatability Manual orientation, Videotape 1,
consists of introductory remarks by R. Sarah Compton, Deputy Assistant
Administrator for Water Enforcement and J. William Jordan, Chief,
Industrial Permits Branch. Sarah Compton discusses the Manual and its
role in the next phase of NPDES permits to control toxic pollutants.
She provides background information on the formation of the Wastewater
Treatability Coordination Committee which guided the development of
the document. Members of the Committee included representatives of
the Office of Research and Development, the Office of Water Enforcement's
Industrial Permits Branch, the National Enforcement Investigations Center,
the Office of Water and Waste Management's Effluent Guidelines Division,
and contractor support from Monsanto Research Corporation, Aerospace
Corporation, and MATHTECH, Inc. (Appendix A of this workbook provides
a complete list of Committee members.)
Sarah Compton also describes, in general terms, the contents of
the Treatability Manual's five volumes and what data sources were
utilized. In addition, Ms. Compton discusses the Federal Register
notice of the availability of the Manual and request for comments.
(This notice is included in Appendix B of your workbook.)
Bill Jordan's remarks focus on the strategy for the next round of
NPDES permitting. He points out that in the past, most permits focused
on the control of traditional pollutants. However, the next round will
be more complex since the new consolidated permit application form and
regulations are intended to control toxic pollutants as well. Mr. Jordan
discusses a two-pronged approach to assist permit writers during the
implementation phase. The first part of the approach is to develop
industry teams of experts on several priority industrial categories in
order to provide assistance to other permit writers and develop model
permits on specific industries. The second part is the development
and distribution of guidance documents. The Treatability Manual
constitutes one such guidance document.
Sarah Compton then introduces Gregory Kew (formerly the Industrial
Permits Branch's project manager during development of the Manual and
currently with the Office of Water and Waste Management) who will briefly
describe the format of this videotape series in the introduction to Tape
2.
-------
TAPE 2 DESCRIPTION OF CONTENTS
A detailed description of the contents of each volume in the
Treatability Manual is given by Gail S. Goldberg and Bill Chang from
the Permits Division in EPA, headquarters.
Volume I Treatability Data
Volume II Industrial Descriptions
Volume III Treatment Technologies
Volume IV Cost Estimating
Volume V Executive Summary
The following pages include both the illustrations used in this
tape and the original pages from the Manual used to generate the
illustrations.
You may notice that in some cases, data cited in the videotape
are different from those found in the September, 1980, edition of the
Treatability Manual. These discrepancies resulted from the fact that
the videotape series was prepared prior to the final draft (6/23/80)
of the Manual. Where possible, the final text pages with corrected
data and revised formating have been included in-the workbook. In
some cases, where the clarity of the presentation would be diminished
by using final pages, text pages are included from previous drafts.
In one instance, Volume II, Table 6-63, the data were revised
subsequent to the preparation of the final draft.

When high-intensity aeration produces completely mixed (all
aerobic) conditions, a final settling tank is required. Solids
are recycled to maintain about 800 mg/L MLVSS in this mode.
Equipment normally associated with aerated lagoons includes
lining systems, aerators, and hydraulic controls. A flow
diagram for aerated lagooning is shown below.

TAPE 3
This tape contains the first of two sample permitting problems
designed to familiarize videotape viewers with the content and the
use of the Treatability Manual. Dr. Gregory Kew of the U.S. EPA
and Mr. Thomas Hughes of the Monsanto Research Corporation will be
presenting both exercises. The permitting exercise presented in
this tape has been taken from the gum and wood chemicals industry.
Mr. Hughes will first give you a quick overview of a hypothetical
NPDES permit application. This will be followed by Dr. Kew's descrip-
tion of one method by which permit writers may use the Treatability
Manual to arrive at best engineering judgment (BEJ) permit limits.
A list of steps used in Dr. Kew's method is given in Section V. 3-2
of the Manual. Mr. Hughes will then present an alternative solution
to the problem and show a different approach for using the Manual
to help determine appropriate permit limits.
It is suggested that videotape viewers examine "KFDES Permit
Application #1". included in this workbook package, before viewing
this tape. You may also wish to scan Dr. Kew's approach which is
included immediately following the permit application.
Illustrations used in the presentations and/or more detailed
information extracted from Trea'taMlJ-'by' Manual data follow the outline
of Dr. Kew's approach. As mentioned in the Tape 2 summary, in a few
instances these data may not represent those found in the published
version of the Manual but are presented solely to demonstrate alternative
ways in which the Manual might be used towards drafting BAT permit
limits.

The steps listed below may be followed in using the Manual and the
information in revised permit applications to write Section ^02(a) (l)
second-round permits. This sequence is intended only as an example
because many circumstances may arise during the preparation of a given
permit which justify the deletion of certain steps or the addition of
others.
Step 1. Complete preapplication communications or hold conferences with
permittee.
Step 2. Review first-round permit to determine the parameters limited
and BPT levels.
Step 3- Review the permittee's compliance with first-round permit to
detect obvious deficiencies.
Step h. Conduct a preliminary review of the application for completeness
and obvious inconsistencies. Notify the prospective permittee
immediately if further information or clarification is needed.
Step 5- Consult Volume II of this Manual and the applicable Development
Document for a description of the industry, its wastes, and
treatment technology.
Step 6. Identify any applicable promulgated effluent guidelines,
pretreatment standards, or water quality standards as of the
current date.
Step 7- Review wastewater pollutants reported in the application to
determine:
a. which toxic pollutants are present and whether there
are groups of toxic pollutants (chemical classes or
treatability classes); and
b. traditional parameters present.
Step 8. Consider BMP approaches to toxic pollutant reduction on
particular processes, if appropriate.
Step 9- Consider requests for exclusion of specific hazardous
substances from Section 311 coverage and review Volumes I
and III for applicable treatment.
73
-------
Step 10. Refer to this volume (Section V.^ and Appendix E) to determine
the potential "indicator" pollutant parameters for the toxic
pollutants found, and the approximate correlation with concen-
trations. Where possible, determine the optimum overlap in
coverage of a number of toxic pollutants by as few indicators
as possible.
Step 11. Refer to Volume III to determine the treatment technology
options capable of reducing indicator parameters to levels
that reasonably assure adequate toxic pollutant reduction.
Review of Volume II should provide indications of "significant"
parameters from the Effluent Guidelines Division (EGD)
perspective in planning BAT. If resource or time constraints
require a choice among controlled parameters, the permit
writer may choose to focus on coverage of those.
Step 12. If the production volume has changed or the facility been
modified, recalculate BPT (including BCT, Water Quality
Standards (¥QS), and if02(a)(l) considerations).
Step 13- Summarizing, choose the most suitable treatment processes,
taking into consideration:
a. Attainment of desired toxic pollutant level;
b. Ability to monitor the operation of the system using
indicator substances or other operating parameters;
c. Process reliability and operator skill requirements;
d. Recovery of products;
e. Reuse and recycling of water;
f. Overall process simplicity;
g. Process options consistent with or in addition to
those already in place;
h. Prospect of meeting future limits based on BAT
guidelines;
i. Cost (in a general way) including:
(l) a comparison of processes capable of achieving
acceptable controls; and
(2) cost/benefit on levels of reduction below
minimum acceptable reduction.
Step 1U. Refer to Volume III and this volume for levels of "indicator"
parameters that are attainable by the installation of the
specific combination of treatment processes chosen, if they
are properly designed, sized, operated, and maintained.
-------
Step 15- Calculate the interim and final permit limits.
Step 16. Determine any special requirements, e.g., pilot-plant
treatability studies or additional monitoring.
Step 17- Determine a compliance schedule leading to BAT by 7/1/84,
where appropriate.
Step 18. Complete a "fact sheet" summarizing the onsiderations that
served as a basis for writing the permit, including a
listing of "indicator" pollutants limited and toxic
pollutants "covered" by each (as noted in column 3,
p. 34398 of 44 Federal Register. June 14, 1979) (2).
Step 19- Complete the draft permit and issue a public notice.

OUTFALL. NUMBER

Form Approved OMB No. 15B-RO173
PART C - If you are a pr.mary industry and this outfall contains process wastewater, refer to Tdbk 2c-2 in the instructions to determine which of the GC/MS fractions you must test
for Mark "X" in column 2-a for all such GC/MS fractions that apply to your industry and for ALL toxic metals, cyanides, and total phenols. If you are not required to mark
column 2-a (secondary industries, non-process wastewater outfalls, and non-required GC/MS fractions), mark "X" in column 2-b for each pollutant you know or have reason
to believe is present. Mark "X" in column 2 c for each pollutant you believe to be absent. If you mark either columns 2-a or 2-b for any pollutant, you must provide the re-
sults of at least one analysis for that pollutant. Note that there are seven pages to this part, please review each carefully. Complete one table tail seven pages) for each outfall.
See instructions for additional details and requirements.

'The following calculations illustrate how to determine BCT Limits
for BOD^:
o Woven fabric - complex finishing (12,200 kkg/yr or greater)
for BODjj, daily maximum waste load allocation = 5.0 kg/kkg
of production
(5-0 kg/kkg) (220 kkg) = 1100 kg 6005 = daily maximum allowed
from woven fabric process
o Knit fabric - complex processing (11,700 kkg/yr or greater)
for BODc;, daily maximum waste load allocation =3.9 kg/kkg
of production ^
(3-9 kg/kkg) (229 kkg) '= 893 kg BOD5 = daily maximum allowed
from knit fabric process
o Considering only the continuous processes operated 100$ of
the time at this mill, then BOD5 daily maximum = 1'!00 kg +
893 kg = 1993 kg * 2000 kg.
2The following calculation illustrates how to determine BAT Limits

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Clean Water Act of 1977 (the Act) places an increased
emphasis on the control of discharges of toxic pollutants from
industrial sources by requiring the achievement of effluent
limitations based on the application of the best available
technology economically achievable (BAT) by July 1, 1984. The
BAT effluent limitations guidelines are currently under develop-
ment by EPA's Effluent Guidelines Division for numerous industries
which discharge toxic (priority) pollutants. Although BAT
guidelines have been proposed for several industrial categories,
some BAT guidelines will not be available in the immediate
future. Also, even where guidelines are available, certain
waste streams may not be covered by the guidelines. Therefore,
in those cases where no national guidelines exist or where
guidelines are not applicable, NPDES permitting authorities,
either the EPA Regional Office or NPDES State, will be required
to exercise "best engineering judgement" in order to establish
BAT effluent limitations in new or renewed permits.
155
-------
The Treatability Manual (The Manual) was developed by
EPA's Office of Research and Development (ORD) with assistance
from the Office of Water and Waste Management (OWWM) and the
Office of Water Enforcement (OWE). The Manual is, primarily, a
compilation of currently available data on the effectiveness of
water pollution control technologies for removal of toxic
pollutants from industrial waste streams. A variety of data
sources were used to develop the Manual, including: EPA's
Effluent Guidelines Division's technical files; EPA Regional
and State files; government publications; ORD treatability
studies; equipment vendors' information; and open literature.
The Manual is expected to be of general interest to industry,
academia, and public interest groups. NPDES permitting authorities
should find the Manual useful to develop case-by-case effluent
limitations for toxic pollutants in permits in the absence of
national effluent limitations guidelines. In addition, the
Manual may be used to develop limitations for conventional
and nonconventional pollutants as well as other pollutants not
specifically addressed by national guidelines. In summary, the
Manual is expected to be useful for:
o Evaluating the potential effectiveness and approximate
costs of proposed effluent treatment systems;
o Determining the potential cost and feasibility of compliance
with discharge limitations under consideration; and
o Developing wastewater pollution control strategies.
While the Manual has been developed to be a comprehensive
information resource, it is not intended to be a substitute for
effluent limitations guidelines.
156
-------
The Manual consists of five volumes:
Volume I - Treatability Data
Volume II - Industrial Descriptions
Volume III - Technologies
Volume IV - Cost Estimating
Volume V - Summary
Volume I is a compendium of treatability data for specific
pollutants. Information is provided on the 129 priority pollutants
developed by EPA from the list of 65 chemicals and classes of
chemicals originally contained in a Consent Agreement between EPA
and the Natural Resources Defense Council, 8 ERC 2120 (D.D.C.
1976). Also included is information on a number of compounds
found among the 299 chemicals (now 297 with the deletion of
calcium oxide and calcium hydroxide from the list) designated
by EPA as hazardous substances under the authority of Section 311
of the Act. The pollutants contained in the volume are organized
into the following chemical categories:
o Metals and inorganics
o Ethers
o Phthalates
o Nitrogen compounds
o Phenols
o Aromatics
o Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons
o PCB's and related compounds
o Halogenated hydrocarbons
157
-------
o Pesticides
o Oxygenated compounds
o Miscellaneous
For each of the pollutants, the followinq information is
provided when available:
o Alternate names of the chemical;
o Chemical Abstracts Number;
o Physical, chemical, and biological properties, including
molecular weight, melting point, boiling point, vapor
pressure, solubility in water at 20° C, log octanol/water
partition coefficient, Henry's Law constant, and biodegrad-
ability data;
o Probable fate of the compound in the aqueous environment.
Removal processes considered include photolysis, oxidation,
hydrolysis, volatilization, sorption and biological
processes;
o Isotherm data on the effectiveness of activated carbon to
remove organics;
o Industrial occurrence of the material. Minimum, maximum,
and mean concentrations are reported for both untreated and
treated wastewater for each industry in which the substance
has been detected; and
o Average and maximum removal efficiencies and average
effluent concentrations for specific control technologies.
Volume II contains a general description of most of the
primary industries [and their major subcategories] cited in the
1976 NRDC Consent Agreement. Also included are:
158
-------
o Subcategory-wide or industry-wide tables covering,
- the number of dischargers,
- the types of pollution control systems in use,
- the range of effluent flow rates and pollutant
concentrations in controlled and uncontrolled waste
streams, and
- the efficiency of treatment systems, when available;
o Summary tables, when available, on BPT effluent
guidelines and the status of BAT guidelines, New
Source Performance Standards, and Pretreatment Standards;
and
o Tabulated information on individual plants specifying
industrial subcategory, treatment systems (including
operating characteristics, when available), effluent
pollutant concentrations, and influent pollutant
concentrations, when available.
Volume III summarizes information on the nature and
effectiveness of various pollution treatment technologies. It
describes the nature of the generic type of control equipment,
the major variations of design, and the following information on
each of the technologies:
o Design criteria
o Typical performance
o Applications and limitations
o Reliability information
o Chemical requirements
o Environmental impacts
159
-------
A summary table for each technology is also provided showing the
concentrations of various pollutants in the effluents; the
minimum, maximum, median, and mean removal efficiencies for these
pollutants; and the number of data points used to generate this
information. Data sheets summarizing the sampling results at
specific installations also are included.
Volume IV provides typical costs of treatment unit operations,
The following information is provided for each unit operation:
o Equipment purchase and installation costs;
o Total capital cost;
o Total direct operating cost, including materials,
chemicals, power, fuel and labor; and
o Total annual operating cost, including total direct
operating cost and total indirect operating cost
(plant overhead, taxes, insurance, administrative
expenses, depreciation, and interest on working capital).
Volume V is a summary designed to facilitate the use of the
first four volumes by including a user's guide and several
summary tables in the appendices. Volume V also contains an
executive summary of Volumes I through IV, and a bibliography
listing all references examined and/or used in developing the
Manual.
Although the Manual contains a considerable amount of data,
it is not intended to be the sole source of information for
permit writers in establishing case-by-case effluent limitations.
160
-------
Permit writers can be expected to use other available information
including but not limited to: historical information on the
individual facility; personal knowledge of the particular facility
and similar facilities; applications for permit(s) previously
submitted; applicable Effluent Guidelines' Development Documents;
the initial permit for the discharger (if any) and associated
files; consultation with technical experts both within and
outside EPA; relevant technical reports such as those published
by EPA's Office of Research and Development; attainable effluent
limitations for similar facilities; EPA guidance for best practi-
cable, best available and best conventional technologies as well
as best management practices; trip reports on site visits;
results of ambient and effluent water monitoring; compliance
monitoring reports; and permit writers' engineering judgement.
The Manual, in the present form, is intended to be neither
a definitive document on treatment systems performance, nor an
effluent limitations guideline. The document is a compilation of
existing data as of early 1980 on the performance of various
water pollution control technologies and systems.
The Agency expects to update the Manual annually as additional
data become available and believes that the Manual can be improved
and important issues resolved by soliciting public comments on
its content and format. Therefore, the Agency welcomes any data
or comments of a technical nature that might improve the quality
of the Manual.
161
-------
At the present time, EPA plans to revise the Manual by
publishing annually either a supplement or a revised manual. The
supplement or revision will consist of changes resulting from
public comments and newly acquired data. The Agency will accept
written comments on the Manual at any time after the date of this
notice. However, in order for comments to be considered for
inclusion in the first supplement or revision, comments must be
received no later than April 1, 1981, 90 days before the expected
publication date of the first annual supplement or revised
manual. Comments received after this date will be reviewed and
considered for the next supplement or revision. The same time-
table is expected to be maintained for subsequent supplements or
revisions, as necessary.
Each year, the Agency will review all comments received
during the preceeding 12-month period and respond to significant
comments as appropriate. The response may take the form of the
publication of a summary of significant comments and responses in
the Federal Register and/or incorporation of suggestions into the
annual supplement or revision.
