INDUSTRIAL FOLIIUTION CONTROL TECHNOLOGT
INTRODUCTION
Industries use hugh quantities of the Nat.ion’s waters and are the’ major
factor in the continuing rise in water pollution. They utilize over
15 trillion gallons of water but, prior to discharge, treat less than
5 trillion gallons. In terms of a single pollution parameter (a)D),
waste generated by industries are equivalent to a total population of
over 360 million people. Even more undesirable than the D loads
of industrial effluents are the enormous quantities of’ mineral and chein—
ical wastes from factories which steadily become more complex and varied.
They include metals such as iron, chromium, nickle, and copper; salts
such as compounds of sodium, calcium, and magnesium; acids such as
sulfuric and hydrochloric; petroleum wastes and brines; phenols, cyanid s;
aimnonia; toluene; blast furnace wastes; greases; all varieties of sus-
pended and dissolved solids; and numerous other waste compounds. These
wastes degrade the quality of receiving waters by causing tastes, odors,
and color; and excess mineralization, salinity, hardness, and corrosion.
Some are toxic to plant and animal life.
The variety and ‘complexity of inorganic and organic components contained
in industrial effluents present a serious liquid wastewater treatment
control problem in that the pollution and toxicity effects of these
constituents are of greater significance than those found in domestic
wastewaters.
Conventional wastewater treatment techno1o which is often adequate for
existing waste types, offers even less promise of providing the type and
degree of treatment to be required in the near future. Industrial
pollution control technolo r, therefore, must be developed and demonstrated
to achieve effective and economical control of pollution from such indus-
tries as those producing metal and metal products, chemical and 11ied
products, paper and 11ied products, petroleum and coal products, food
and kindred products, textiles and leather gcods.
To continue the attack on the problem of industrial pollution will require
a cooperative industry—government effort to conceive, research, develop,
and demonstrate treatment processes, production modifications, water
reuse and water conservation programs. The ongoing research and demonstra-
tions, funded by Section 6 grants, have been made to manufacturers and
processors representing about every major source of industrial pollution.
The continued and expanded support is urgently needed specificafl.y to
implement the demonstration R&D programs related to new or improved
techrolo&y for the treatment, reuse, and/or disposal of industrial waste—
waters and their sludge residues. Existing data suggests that about
half of the total volumes of wastes processed by municipalities is of
I
-------
industrial origin. uphasis must be continued to achieve the most effective
water pollution control by means of joint municipal—industrial treatment.
Another key area where the efforts must be expanded involves the denionstra-
tion of by—product recovex y and utilization.
In this respect, the most promising and beneficial area requiring additional
support is the implementation of closed—loop (water reuse) treatment
systems for the industry.
An accelerated industrial pollution control research, develo mient, and
demonstration program wil] measurably decrease the amount of expenditures
needed to accomplish these goals, increase the efficiency of treatment,
and eliminate the gaps in treatment technology.
OB 1 3ECTIVE
The objective of the industrial poUut on control R&D program is to develop
and demonstrate the required technology to achieve required degrees of
pollution control by lease cost methods for all significant industrial
sources of pollution.
P GRAM OF WQ
The program includes all research, development, and demonstration efforts
necessary to resolve industrial pollution prcblems.
The objectives will be met by using the research and development grant
mechanism, supplemented by in-house laboratory programs. The*IPCB will
implement and administer demonstration projects for new and novel indus-
trial wastewater treatment projects applicable for the majority of all
significant industries. These demonstrations will include the latest
developments in physical, chemical, biological, and combinations of
treatment methods. It is expected to develop further the cooperation of
industry to participate in meaningful pollution abatement demonstrations
and to increasingly demonstrate the feasibility of in—plant measures,
by—product recovery, and wastewater reuse as methods to abate pollution
and to reduce treatment costs.
Research thrcug i in—house efforts and by contracts to industries and uni-
versities are to complete state of the art studies related to treatment
arid control technology for selected industry groups. Similarly, industrial
wastewaters are to be identified, characterized, quantitized and classified
for all industries of poflutionaJ. significance.
‘Phe Industrial Pollution Control Branch
-------
Industrial wastes are the NatiOns principal point sources of controllable
waterborn wastes. In terms of the generally quoted measurements of strength
and volume, gross wastes of manufacturing establishments are about three times
as great as those of the Nation’s sewered population (reference Table I).
Moreover, the volume of industrial production, which gives rise to industrial.
wastes, is increasing at about 4.5% a year or three times faster than the
population. A so significant is the variance of composition of industrial
wastes, which contain all known pollutants of concern in water pollution
abatement as well as some unidentified factors.
Table I shows reported quatitities of industrial wastewaters discharged in 1963
and F 1PCA estimates of the quantities of standard biochemical oxygen demand
(BOD 5 ) and settleable and suspended solids contained in the wastewaters. The
wasteload estimates, based upon an ‘estimate of the “average” quantity of
p Uutant per product unit, indicate that the chemical, paper, and food and
ldndred industrial groups generated about 90% of the DOD in industri.al
wastewater be pre t eatwent .
Similar statistics on net wasteload discharges are not completely available.
However, indications are that the extent of industrial wastewater treatment is
not greater than that currently practiced for municipal. wastewaters.
Industrial wastes differ markedly in chemical composition, physical charact-
eristics, strength, and to dcity from wastes found in normal domestic
sewage. Every conceivable toxtcant and pollutant of organic and inorganic
nature can be found in industrial wastewaters, as indicated in Table II
for selected industries. Thus the DOD or solids content often are not
adequate indicators of the quality oI’ i idustrial effluents. For example,
industrial wastes frequently contain persistent organics which resist the
secondary treatment procedures applied normally to domestic sewage. In
addition, some industrial effluents require that specific organic compounds
be stabilized or that trace elements be removed as part of the treatment
process.
It is therefore necessary to characterize each industrial wastewater to
permit comparative pollutional assessments to be made for individual
industries as well as industry groups. Characterization will permit
classifying the components ol ’ industrial wastewaters into as few as four
basic classes of pollutants to more readily collate pollution statistics
and to evaluate economics of methods of treatment as well as to project
lease cost methods. Proposed generalized basic classification parameters
are DOD, COD, SS, and TDS into which all known pollutants can be classed.
Also required is the establislunent of a relative pollution comparative
index for all significant pollutants. This index in combination with the
known characteristics and volume of a wastewater will determine the rela-
tive gross pollution sever ity of all industrial wastes and establish
(1)
Note the 1200 program described herein does not include thermal pollution
requirement and associated problems.
-------
a basis for comparing the Severity of pollution from industries.
Table III presents permissible criteria for surface water for public
supplies as obtained from the Report of the Conmittee on Water Quality
Criteria, April 1, 3968. The addition of an assumed BUD 5 value of
5m /lto these criteria permits comparisons of the listed pollutants to
be made against a unit of BOD. Under these circumstances it is relative-
iy apparent that pollutants such as drin and Phenol (on amg4 concentration
equivalent basis) are 5000 times more critical as pollutants than BUD.
Further work in thi s area will permit establishment of more accurate
priorities in terms of our nations most critical needs.
Industrial wastes will require the developnent, demonstration, and
evaluation of treatment methods suitable for each significant industrial
waste type which is significantly different from domestic waste.
Table IV is a listing of all major industry groups and industries of
suspected significant contributions to water pollution. These have been
selected on th basis of a p ocess water intake of at least 1 billion
gallons per year and with regards to the potential for pollution from
the process use of the water. For program planning and budgeting purposes,
the industries’are grouped ir to thirteen subprogram elements as shown in
column one of Table I. Within each element, the identity of industry
group(s) by their Standard Industrial Classification code number is also
presented as in column two of Table I.
The industries listed in Table III number appro d.mate].y 150 and represent
potentially equally numerous wastewaters of significantly different char-
acteristics, for which treatment technology must either be developed or
upgraded, The interchangeability of treatment technology between similar
type8 of wastewaters is anticipated but will have to be demonstrated
through results of grant research projects, or in house studies. Because
resource allocations may nqt be sufficient to encompass the potential R&D
demand imposed by the diverse nature of industrial wastes, a priority
system must be established and used in the allocation of R&D efforts for
industrial wastewater problems.
At this time a firm priority for R&D activities based on an ultimate com-
parable basis of pollution severity, has not been established for industrial
wastes, However, a cursory examination of Table I, and assuming the (BUD 5 )
parameters of pollution severity as the prime indicator of pollution,
initial basis for raiild.n,g the industry groups for priority R&D efforts, is
possible, However, 1a o4edge of 4.1 ]. chemical and physical parameters of
pollution, as well as the state of the art and economic considerations
are necessary to more adequately assess priority for R&D investments,
Tables V and VI list National Priorities for both pollution sources and
water quality parameters, These were established on the basis of best
available ini’ormation in order to establish an initial base.

-------
In spite of the comp1e dty and ma itude of industrial pollution, initial
estimates of the costs of clean waters from industrial sources have been
made. As suimnarized in Table VII industrial capital requiremenEs to
abate pollution by 1973 to the extent of providing 5% treatment effective-
ness, are substantially less than estimated capital requirements for
municipal treatment or collection facilities for separting combined sewers,
while the gross pollutional load contributed is substantially greater than
either. This indicates that the average cost of industrial waste treatment
is substantially less than f r municipal waste treatment when based on
treatment cost per lb BDD. If these estimates are reasonably accurate it
wculd appear that for the most part industrial pollution control to the
equivalency of secondary treatment is within a reasonable cost and need
only be developed and demonstrated for the various industries in our
econon r which are sigñific nt contributors of pollution.
In summary the needs show that the 1200 program must be primarily dedicated
to the attainment of:
1. Qualifying and quantitizing industrial wastes and treatment practices.
2. Implementation of undemonstrated but feasible treatment methods to
as many types of industries as possible.
3. Reduce cost of treatment by the beneficial recovery and reuse of waste—
water contaminants.

The alternatives shown primaril y consist of:

(2) ther (combined a—b—c methods as appropriate)
The alternatives best suited for implementation in specific 1200 programs
will depend on many factors and local conditions. Where the state—of—art
of treatment is essentially non—existing, emphasis on treatment to meet
envirormienta]. standards should prevail. For p.onprogressjve industries,
in—plant measures should be explored for potential application. For
industries which have demonstrated effective treatment methods, lower cost
alternatives of treatment stressing reuse and by—product recovery should
be gi’ren consideration.

-------
It should be apparent that extensive cooperation and conmrunication among
all participants and activities dll be required.
The program is orientated to upgrade th state-of art for industrial
waste treatment to the extent that industries will thereafter continue
to maintain the art in a progres 3iVe manner with minimum Federal R&D
assistance. Therefore, it is imperative that the cooperation of industry
be attained in the earliest phases of this program.
SCHEDULE AN]) NILESTONE&
There are three major milestones to be demonstrated for each major industry
category. Attainment of these milestones will provide an upgraded state—
of—art for industrial wastewater treatment which will allow substantial
decreased Federal R&D efforts to subside in favor of industry’s own continued
maintairienCe program.
The major milestones are:
1. DemonstratiOn of the equivalence of secondary treatment for all industries
of significance within each industrial category. The equivalence of secondary
treatment is the removal of about 85% of the primary pollutants from indus-
trial wastewaters.
2. Development and demonstration of the necessary treatment requirements
for industrial wastewaters of significance to the extent required to meet
state and local water quality criteria. In a majority of cases this require-
ment can be attained by the removal of up to 98% of primary pollutants, or
the removal to a high degree (85%) of secondary but significant contaminantes
from industrial wastewaters.
3. Develop and demonstrate the means to control all major pollutants from
all industries.
These aUestones are to be attained in the years as shown in Table VIII for
the industrial categories indicated.

PESCRTPTTON OF PROJECT : A secondary and tertiary sewage treatment plant
will be constructed for treatment of combined municipal and industrial wastes.
The industrial waste is generated by the manufacture of dog food and will
comprise 25% of the BOD load on the treatment plant. The plant will be
operated and studied for a period of one year. The tertiary-plant (consist-
ing of flocculation, settling and filtration) will be operated with the ad-
dition of alum for phosphate removal during the critical 6 months of low
stream flow. During the remainder of the year, the secondary effluent will
receive plain filtration to maintain a very high quality effluent. The
feasibility of alternate methods of chemical sludge disposal and the economics
of tertiary treatment with phosphate removal will be studied.

DESCRiPTION OF PROJECT:The project will be a study, evaluation, and
determination of the effectiveness, design, and operating para-
meters of four alternative biological treatment processes and
modifications for treating combined municipal and industrial
(primarily paper mill) waste waters. A pilot waste water treatment
plant for each process will b operated in parallel. The effluent
quality, operating parameters, design variables, and cost relation-
ships for each process will be determined. Each pilot plant will
have a 1 to 10 gpm capacity for combined waste waters. After se-
lecting the most promising process, an existing 60 gpm pilot plant
will be modified to suit the selected process and will be operated
for a year to demonstrate its performance and to generate perfor-
mance data. The final objective is to evaluate the design, per-
formance, and use of the systems and to generalize the results for
applicability to other locations.

VESCRIPTION OF PROJECT :
Onondaga Lake has been a receptor of domestic and industrial wastes
to such an extent that it is now in an advanced stage of eutrophication.
This project is part of a twenty million dollar program to restore
Onondaga Lake.
The objectives of this project are: (1) to demonstrate county-industry
cooperative wastewater management of municipal-industrial wastes based
on an entire watershed, (2) to demonstrate feasibility of treatment
of mixtures of industrial and domestic wastes, (3) to demonstrate the
treatment of an industrial waste stream with the waste effluent from
another industry, (14) to evaluate the effects of proposed nianagement
and treatment methods on the economics of the treatment processes and
on the restoration of the lake.

The Demonstration Project includes construction of (1) New Grit Chambers
(14 units) two for industrial wastes, one for sanitary sewage and one for
either industrial or sanitary wastes. These grit chambers will allow
sewage to be treated individually or in combination of the two basic
sewages in the treatment process following grit removal; (2) Mechanical
flash mix-facilities, laboratory and utility building improvements and
the necessary piping and other appurtenant construction. The City will
also construct an interceptor sewer, sludge ejector and pumping station
in conjunction with the demonstration project but is not a part of this

increased purification attainable by treating industrial wastes (packing
house), sanitary sewage, combined sanitary sewage, and stormwaters or
combinations of such wastes with polyelectrolytes and floc “weighting

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT : This project is to evaluate pre-treatment techniques
for rextile dyeing wastes. The dye wastes are reduced sulfur compounds with
high immediate and ultimate oxygen demand that cannot be satisfied in
en activated sludge system. The pre_treatment technique is to provide initial
oxidation by diffused aeration, chlorination, and the separate additions of
sodium nitrate and potassium permanganate. Ammoniation will also be used.
The project will be for two years and include a waste source investigation,
detailed baseline analyses, construction of the pre-treatment facilities
and full scale paralleling of the treatment system, and evaluation of the
pre-treatment techniques.

DESCRiPTION OF PROJECT : A full scale 14.5 mgd deinorstration and evaluation
of the joint treatment of municipal sewage in conjunction with potato
processing wastes using several pretreatment methods prior to final treat-
ment in existing stabilizations ponds. The pretreatment methods include
anerobic and aerated treatment, in series, a.nerobic treatment alone, and
aeration alone, under varying seasonal waste load conditions.
In addition to determining the most efficient operation of the pretreat-
ment methods, their effects on the conventional stabilization ponds will
be extensively determined.

A full scale (2—4 MGD) demonstration and evaluation of the joint treat-
ment of industrial herbicide and municipal wastes, by the use of a
municipal biological system composed of: primary clarification, bio—filters,
aerated and stabilization ponds. The herbicides are of the chioro and chioro—
oxyacetic acid deriviatives of phenol. Investigations will be conducted
to determine how the concentration of the phenolics in a receiving stream
can be reduced to a level below the tests and odor thresho]ñ, also to in—
vestigate the biological factors related to the removal of the herbicides
during treatment. Suitable methods are to be developed for the ideitification
of the various herbicide Compounds. The adequacy of nutrient values in the
joint waste to allow complete bio—processing of chlorophenolics and related
compounds will a o be demoatrated

The objective of this project is to develop a technique for the depression
of pyrites in the froth flotation of sulfide ores by the addition of organic
salts in place of commonly used cyanides. The oxidation potential of pure
systems will be varied to determine explicitly the conditions which must be
imposed to depress pyrites. Batch flotation tests on two tiatural sulfide
ores containing pyrite will then be conducted to determine the feasibility of
pyrite depression in a natural system under conditions prescribed for the pure
system.

hydrochloric acid pickling of strip-steel preparatory to cold-rolling.
The treatment process will consist of limestone neutralization,
aeration, coagulation, sedimentation, sludge recirculation, vacuum
liltration of the excess sludge, and effluent equalization.
All or nearly all of the acid and the compounds of iron will be
removed by the treatment process. The chloride content of the waste
is not changed by tI is process and may be such that dilution with
other available wastes will be required in order to meet the state?s
proposed standards regarding total dissolved solids.

SCR!PTTON OF PROJECT : The S. K. Williams Company proposes to in—
stall a chemical pre-rinse type waste treatment plant (designed
by La.ncy Laboratories) to treat the drag-Out from various op-
erations in their new job-plating plant. Each section of the
waste treatment facility will be expected to alternately or
simultaneously treat the wastes from three to seven different
proce&8ifl operations. Sludges will be disposed of by landfill
and 80-90% of the rinse waters will be reused. The blowdOwfl
rinse waters will be free of significant quantities of tèxic
substances.
The project period will be 8 months for construCtiOn and 12
months for operation, maintenance, and post construCtiOn
studies and reports.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT:ThIS is an industrial waste treatment project
for the installation and demonstration of a chemical pre-rinse
system fo the removal of toxic materials from the wastes from a
small electroplating plant. The treated effluent is expected to
have a pH of 6.5 to 8.5 and will contain less than: 0.1 ppm of
chromium, copper, nickel, or zinc; 100 ppm of chlorides or nitrates;
200 ppm of sulfates; 5 ppm of BOD; and will be color and odor free.
Approximately two-thirds of the treated effluent will be reused for
plating rinse water.
Precipitates of toxic metal ions will be produced by the chemical
treatment of the segregated waste streams from the various plating
lines. Sludges containing these precipitates will be routed to
sludge drying beds. Dried sludges will be disposed of by landfill.
There a e over three thousand similar sources of stream pollution
in the New England area alone and over twelve thousand plating
plants across the nation. This project will provide technical and
economic data on an effective waste treatment method. It is antici-
pated that this information will be of value to many firms, who be-
cause of insufficient funds, could not themselves undertake the
engineering and development costs required.

VESCRTPT1ON OF PROJECT : The full scale demonstration project will provide
additional facilities for the treatment end reuse of 7.2 rngd of blast fur-
nace gas washer water from the venturies and coolers on tvo blast furnaces.
The water before treatment contains 700 ppm of suspended solids, 1630 ppm
of total solids, 3ppm cyanidee, aM 100 ppb of phenols. An ani9mic po]j-
electrolyte viii be used to improve recovery of magnetite (Fe3 0 ) and re-
moval of cyanide a in the primary clarifier. In addition, polyphospbates
and chlorine vi].l be JiBed as required to prevent a hydrogen cyanide hazard
in the vacinity of the cooling tower. A new cooling tower will reduce the
water temperature and further reduce cyanides thus permitting reuse of most
of the water. The cooling tower blovdo ni will be used to cool slag. The
blovdovn stream will be evaporated and leave its dissolved solids on the
slag pile. The blowdown rate viii be determined by the allowable alkal inity
of the recirculated water. The water is passed through cooling coils in
the vall3 of the blast furnaces before routing through the venturies. Thia
is expected to limit the alkAlinity to 500 ppm.
The project period o ’ 18 months is based on anticipated completion of con-
struction in July 1969 aM Final Report by August 1, 1970.

VESCR1?TIO?! OF PWJECT : The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency proposes
to engage the North Star Research and Development Institute (3100 Thirty
Eighth Ave., So., Minneapolis, Minnesota, 55406) to conduct Phase I of an
anticipated three phase — three year project. The objectives of the pro-
ject are to develop reverse osmosis (RO)’ for the treatment of metal finish-
ing effluents (FIFE) for the purposes of (a) eliminating pollutants from
effluents, (b) recovery of valuable plating materials, and (c) recovery of
waste waters for reuse.
Phtse I will provide for screening of candidate membranes for effectiveness
anc. compatibility in single ion applications, compatibility of support
materials, investigation of promising membranes-f or improvement by modifi-
cation, and investigation of operating parameters, e.g. temperature, pressure,
thickness, strength, and permeability.
Phase II would extend the studies to mixed ion FIFE’s, life studies, and
production aspects and costs of membranes.
Phase III would consist of scale—up studies on simulated FIFE’s arid sub-
sequently to actual FIFE’s with generation of data for commercialization.

“Biological Removal of Carbon and Nitrogen Compounds
from Coke Plant Wastes”
The Armco Steel Corporation, under the sponsorship of the AISI and with the
assistance of the AISI Fellowship at Mellon Institute will design, construct,
operate, optimize, and evaluate a 1 gpm pilot facility for the three stage
biological treatment of raw ammoniacal liquors from the by—product coke plant
of Armco Steel located at Houston, Texas. A typical analysis of this waste
would indicate l2L 0 ppm of phenol, 60 ppm cyanide, and 6L400 ppm ammonia.
The three stage biological treatment system is designed to accomplish (a)
oxidation of carbonaceous material (aerobic), (b) nitrification of nitrogenons
compounds (aerobic) and Cc) nitrate reduction to nitrogen gas (anaerobic).
Laboratory testing indicates that removal of 75% of organic carbon, 99% of
phenol and cyanide and essentially all of the ammonia can be expected. The
pilot facility will provide the basis for the design of a full scale facility.

DE3CRIPTION OF PROJECT :
This grant supports Phase I of grantee t s anticipated three phase project to
provide an overall waste treatment system to treat effluents from an integrated
steel mill and the domestic wastes from the City of Weirton, West Va. The
mill produces the full spectrum of steel industry wastes. Waste water volumes
currently are 226 mgd and 1.2 mgd from the mill and the city respectively.
The general approach will be to reduce volumes by providing treatment to
maximize reuse, to provide pretreatment as required for subsequent combined
treatment, toprovide combined treatment of sanitary and specific mill wastes
where a sy-nergestic effect can be anticipated, in an expanded municipal facility,
and to provide complete treatment of the remaining wastes.
Phase I consist$ of three tasks which include wastewater characterization and
analysis of existing facilities, accessment of alternative treatment processes,
and determination of the feasibility of a joint municipal-industrial waste
treatment demonstration facility. Phase I will require twelve months to comp]ete.

VE. CR1PTION OF PROJECT : A development, demonstration, and evaluation
project for the bio-cheinical treatment of wastewatera from a typical
poiy vinyl chloride manufacturing plant, at a 0.85 ingd scale of operation.
The treatment system is to produce effluent to meet the receiving water
standards (Delaware River) of greater than 85% removal of BOD, turbidity
of not greater than 30 units above river water, and be free from taste
and odor producing substances.
The process will consist of chemical pre—treatment with primary sedi-
inentation, followed by activated sludge secondary treatment and a final
polishing pond. Tertiary treatment studies with activated carbon are
also contemplated to determine the extent to which the secondary effluent
will lend itself to tertiary treatment, as future Delaware River standards
may require the equivalent of tertiary treatment.

DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT :
Research will be conducted on predicting the effects of Kraft mill waste disposal
in the ocean on the marine environment. A remote sensing system and aerial
photography will be utilized to estimate waste concentrations, water currents,
diffusion coefficients, and vertical concentration profiles in a i ocean outfall
plume. Aerial photography will be taken with a niultispectral camera system of
the waste field. Boat sampling will be conducted at the same time to provide
“ground truth” data. Data will be compiled and an 1yzed by a system of
computer analysis which was developed for this purpose in 1968-69.
The investigation will include several Kraft mill outf ails along the Oregon
coast. Results of bloassays and chemical analyses will be related to photo-
graphic imagery. Zones of water quality influence about existing outf ails and
proposed outfalls will be estimated, and diffusion coefficients will be
estimated.

DESCRiPTION OF PROJECT : The broad objective of the presently proposed
research is to improve the effectiveness and to extend knowledge concerning
the possible industrial applications of the t ISEKOR?! process which, in
essence, comprises the counter-current steam stripping of Kraft pulp mill
condensate streams in order to bring about the removal of steam-volatile
organic compounds from the fluid and thereby provide relatively clean effluent
water which can be reused in pulp mill process or else discharged without
danger. The volatilized organic substances are condensed to yield water-
immiscible “SEKOR oils’ which may find uses in commerce. Use of the process
may also result in a substantial decrease in the odorous substances emitted
into the atmosphere from Kraft pulp mills.

The main objective of this research is to evaluate the slime growth
promoting potential of treated pulp mill wastes. Wastes treated
by various means will be tested for their ability to support slime
growth using various procedures. Additions]- studies will be carried
out in an effort to define specific carbon and nitrogen sources in
treated wastes which support the growth of Sphaerotilus . The effects
of environmental factors on growth of SphaerotilUS also will be
examined. This study will contribute to the development of abatement
procedures for contrplling slime growth as well as assist in establish-
ing suitable water quality criteria for streams receiving pulp mill
wastes. The study also will add. to the knowledge o haerOtilUS.

VESCRIPTTON OF PROJECT : The pulp and paper industry needs to find an alter-
native treatment process which is less expensive and difficult-to-operate than
the conventional activated sludge process. As a step in this direction, this
project will involve the continuous operation of a pilot treatment plant con-
taining plastic trickling filter, brush-aerated oxidation ditch, conventional
aerated lagoon, deep aerated lagoons, and two clarifiers in combinations and
evaluate possible efficiencies.
The specific research objectives are to: determine the effect of influent
quality on biological treatment; evaluate potential of plastic trickling
filters alone and in combination with brush-aerated oxidation ditch, conven-
tional aerated lagoon and deep aerated lagoon; and to achieve higher-than-
conventional BOD removals from kra .ft mill wastes.

PESCRIPTION OF PROJECT :
This project will determine the ability of cooling towers to both permit
heat dissipation and recycle of waste water back to the condensers as
well as the treatment efficiency that may be provided by passage of
waste waters through the tower. Condensates and decker filtrate will
be handled by this facility. Organic load reduction will probably be
gained by a combination of chemical oxidation, air stripping of volatile
constituents and biochemical oxidation.

DESCRiPTION OF PROJECT :
The project is directeo towara an examination of the possible separation,
in the foam phase, of a significant portion of the dissolved organics
contained in primary treated Kr ift Mill waste. Hopefully it may be
discovered that a high percent of the pollutional load may be separateo
in a relatively small volume by these means. This may then provide a
larger volume of ‘bottoms’ suitable for discharge and a smaller volume
of ‘tops’, or collapsed foam, directed to complete treatment.

VESCRIPT!ON OF PROJECT :
Kraft pulping wastes which are discharged into streams may darken
the color of the water, contribute to the biochemical oxygen demand
and increase the solids content of the stream. New federal and state
wa:er standards will require removal of such materials from mill
effluents. Lime precipitation in small scale operations has been
shown to remove certain of the solid constituents and demonstration
grants on lime treatments have been approved at three kraft mill sites.
The objective of the proposed project is to determine the chemical
and physical nature of the color bodies in the effluents from these
three kraft mills both before and after lime treatment. The investi-
gation should lead to a better understanding of the results of the
lime treatments, and may suggest means for more complete removal of
color.

TITLE OF PROJECT : “Aerobic Secondary Treatment of Potato
Processing Wastes with Mechancial Aeration”
PROJECT SITE : Shelley, Idaho DATE AWARVEV : Aug. 1967
FEDERAL GRANT : $483,217 TOTAL EST. PROJ. COST : $690,310
PROJECT NUMBER : WPRD 15 .-O1-R1-67 PPBS NO . 1206
DESCRiPTiON OF PROJECT : This project is designed to demonstrate the effec-
tiveness of an aerobic secondar3 treatment plant for treating the total
flow of potato processing wastes (1 MGD and 14,580 lb. BOD). The aerobic
treatment will follow an exis±ing primary treatment plant.
The secondary treatment plant will consist of three earthen aeration
basins equipped with inechancial surface aerators, a mechancially cleaned
secondary clarifier, an aerobic digester, and sludge disposal beds. In
adaition, a silt removal system will be constructed, consisting of
screening facilities, a pumping station, and two earthen ponds to re-
tain silt accumulations for one processing season.
The aeration system will be tested under three operating schemes:
1.) as an extended aeration system in which biological sludge is returned
to the aeration basin and the excess, to the digester; 2.) as a flow-
through aeration basin with sludge carryover into the effluent; and 3.)
as an intermittent aeration system in which the clarified upper portion
of the aeration basin contents is discharged directly to the river.
During these operations, studies will be made on the effects of foaming
ice, temperature, pM, and nutrients on the efficiency of the process.
STATUS : Contracts for long lead items such as the aeration equipment
and clarifiers to be awarded within thirty days. Final design and
specifications for construction of the treatment facility to be com-
pleted on or about ! y 1, 1968.

FEVERAL GRANT : $29,300 TOTAL EST. PROJ. COST : $43,200
PROJECT NUMBER : WPRD 1 0167
_____________ PPBS NO . 1206
VESCRIPTTON OF PROJECT : The Kehr Process, in essence, involves a combin—
ing of activated sludge aeration of 10,000 to 15,000 mg/i mixed liquor
solids with aerobid digestion in a single aeration tank. This provides
high removals of DOD, solids, and nutrients; facility for periodic high
strength wastes; a stabilized, drainable water sludge; and comparatively
low physical plant costs.
The Dbjectives are to:
1. Demonstrate the revised Kehr Process using liquid-solids separation by
high-rate flotation_densification system of activated sludge solids.
2. Demonstrate effectiveness of the process for treating cannery wastes
combined with domestic sewage having a BUD 5 of 1000 to 2000 mg/i.
3. Demonstrate performance of the process with densif led return sludge
solids of 4% to 8% on a dry weight basis, thus affecting plant economy by
use of smaller tankage volume.
4. Determine processing requirements for application to a full-scale
treatment plant.

FEDERAL GRANT : $350,000 TOTAL EST. PROJ. COST : $550,000
PROJECT NUMBER : WPRD 38-01-67 PPBS NO . 1206
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT :
In Florida, about 52 plants of the citrus industry discharge about 130
mgd of waste, having an organic concentration amounting to 318,000 lbs.
of SOD daily, into streams and lakes of Florida. This project is a step
towards solving this pollution problem.
The objective of this project is to demonstrate the design and opera-
tional factors for organic and nutrient removal of citrus process waste
by the activated sludge process, by stabilization in oxidation ponds
with and without induced aeration, and absorption of nutrients by plant
life with subsequent drying of materials in citrus feed mill.
STATUS : Bids have been reviewed, selected, and contract awarded for
construction of treatment facility at Auburndale. At Leesburg, the
site is operational, and worthwhile information being collected on
mixed municipal and citrus processing wastes by the activated sludge
System.

VESCR1PTTON OF PROJECT:Four oxidation channels will be constructed to han-
dle an equivalent load of 20,000 lbs. of BOD/day from a packinghouse on
a 7-day basis with estimated flow of 3.5 mgd. The objective is to find an
efficient, effective, and economical method of treating raw packinghouse
wastes so they can be discharged directly into streams.
Each channel will be 460 ft. X 60 ft. with a capacity of 150,000 Cu.
ft. Channels 1&2 will receive raw wastewater from existing primary treat-
ment systems. The overflow will be directed into Channels 3&4 which will
be operated intermittently as aerator and settling basins. Channel 4 will
allow the sludge to be returned to Channels 1&2 or removed for harvesting.
The solids removed will be centrifuged or evaporated ar i dried.
The most feasible way of handling solids will be determined. Tests will
be conducted to determine if the dried solids can be used an an animal-
food supplement.
The process will be designed to give variable rates of aeration and
flow to obtain maximum bio-chemical oxygen demand and nitrogen removal.
The flow will be sampled and analyzed for total nitrogen, chemical oxygen
demand, suspended solids, total solids, and grease; weekly samples will
be tested for total volatile solids, total fixed solids, phosphate, total
bacterial content, and coliform count.
STATUS : Final design and specUications for the treatment facility have
been completed. Expect to advertise for bids no latter than April 15,1968
and begin construction during May 1968.

The objectives of this project are to demonstrate the feasibility of;
treating potato processing waste using the activated sludge s tem ; com-
bining potato processing waste with sugar beet refining waste; and the
feasibility of three in-plant closed waste water systems in the sugar
beet plant.
The project will provide extremely valuable data to both the potato
processing and beet sugar industry. The aim is also to determine if
a $30 million industrial complex, composed of potato and sugar beet
processing and a residential community, can exist on a small stream,
as is proposed, and have clean water.

DESCRiPTION OF PROJECT.The cannery now dis charges it fruit-processing
wastes into the Yakiina River. The objective of this project is to de-
termine the most economical method of removing 90% of the SOD from an
expected flow of 2.6 MGD with a BOD 5 loading of 20,000 lbs.
Aeration methods, including modifications to the activated sludge
process, will be tested on a plant-size scale to determine their effec-
tiveness in treating fruit processing wastes.
Existing and specially designed new facilities, including lagoons
and clarifiers, will be used in prototype studies of the effects of
varying amounts of aeration, waste loadi waste detention, sludge re-
turns, and chemical on the BOD level.
During the 1967 canning season, the lagoon and clarifier will be
operated as a completely mixed activated-sludge facility. The new la-
goon, with added aerators will operated as an aeration lagoon with no
sludge return, each under varied loadings. During the 1968 canning season
the facilities will be operated as a modified contact stabilization
facility.
Information on the modifications will be compared and the results will
be applied to the activated sludge process for use by industry and govern-
ment as method for the biological treatment offruit processing wastes.
STATUS : Aeration basin completed and operational. Contracts being awarded
for balance of construction. Facility to be completely operational by
September 1968.

PROJECT NUMBER : WPRD 151-01-68 PPBS NO . 1206
PESCRTPTION OF PROJECT : The objectives of this proposal are as follows:
(1) to determine the feasibility of employing a high rate t];ickling fil-
ter in the San Jose, California canning plant to treat strong organic
wastes encountered in vegetable and fruit processing operations, which
although low in volume (approx. 20% of total), contribute as much as 60%
to the total BOD load. The I £‘ter will be 14 ft. in diameter and 21.5 ft.
high, employing synthetic media and operating in a range between 100 and
200 gpm. It will be subjected to variations in flow, pH control and nu-
trient addition to determine its optiinun working parameters. (2) To de-
termine the effectiveness of using an air flotation process with and with-
out addition of flocculants in removing suspended solids prior to secon-
dary treatment. (3) To evaluate ce iter discharge solids separation tech-
niques and its effect on the total BUD content.
A study will also be made of the usage 01 edible acids as a bacteriostatic
agent to prevent growth in recirculated flume water. Following the one
year testing operation, it is proposed to select units to be incorporated
in full scale plant operations for a further demonstration project. The
reason for the low project cost is due to NCA already having on hand
several pieces of equipment required to test these processes.
STATUS : Received worthwhile information on operation of units during
last fall’s processing operations. Will continue with evaluation of the
various units Ihis fall.

This is a 15 month project to demonstrate, over one full year of
operation, the application of anaerobic lagoons and two-stage trickling
filters for the treatment of strong wastes resulting from the slaughter-
ing and processing of hogs. This plant kills about 5000 hogs daily and
waste flows average about 0.85 mgd. Data will be collected on the
strength of wastes and the efficiency of individual treatment units
under various loadings and weather conditions so the results can be
prç)jected for new plants using any combinations of these treatment units.

VESCRZPTION OF PROJECT : Grant Period: 12 months
The purpose of this project is to develop detailed information on the
operational techniques required to permit the utilization of a limited
supply of’ treated domestic wastewaters for a variety of manufacturing
processes. Requirements for control of biological processes in waste-
waters impounded and recycled extensively within manufacturing processes
and operations is being investigated.
The project is being conducted at the Black and Decker Manufacturing
Companys’ Hampstead, Nd. plant.Operations in the plant involve stamping,
pressilLg, punching, grinding, forging, assembly, and performance testing
in a controlled environment requiring 2600 tons of refrigeration for air
conditioning during the w .rm months. The water supply from wells is very
limited. Domestic wastewaters are treated and routed to a nine acre
impoundment for recirculation through the plant processes and operations.
A Tho-additional-cost” time extension has been requested to permit
further evaluation through another summer season.

VF _ SCRIPT1O 1 OF PIWJECT :
This project is designed to demonstrate the effectiveness of a
total process-water reuse system involving diatomite filtration to
treat wastes from the production of glass fiber insulations and
elcoents.
Th objective of this project is to eliminate completely the
discharge of phenolic waste water from the Johns-Manville Plant. The
plant now discharges 30 to 50 9pm of waste water which eventually
flows into the Maurnee River. This river has been cited as one of
the critically polluted rivers of the nation.
The waste water now contains glass fiber, caustic, and phenols.
As a part of the project, all of the process waste water will be
rc circulated. The residual solids, consisting of glass fibers and
phenolic binders, will be removed by screening and diatomite
filtration. Caustic cleaning solutions will be segregated from
the ranufacturing process water, ponded, and treated as required
for dumping or for return to plant process use.
PR X3RESS TO MARCH 25, 1968 : Approval to purchase certain long-lead items
of equipment on low bids has been given with repayment subject to appro-
val of the final plans and specifications. The final plans and specifica-
tions are complete except for theelectrical wiring and should be submitted
for approval within two weeks.

DESCRiPTiON OF PROJECT : No completely satisfactory method has been de-
vised for treating tannery industrial waste. Since tanneries use large
volumes of water, containing organic and inorganic matter, su.itable treat-
ment methcds must be found.
The objectives of the project are to demonstrate the feasibility of com-
pletely treating tannery waste from the only plant in U.S. that tans all
three types of leather tannages - Chrome, Vegetable and Alum - and to
obtain basic data to design full-scale treatment plants usable for any
tannery.
The basic plan is to develop methods to pre-treat the three present leather
tannages, to combine their streams, and to completely treat tannery indus-
trial waste. The high alkaline content of beam house waste will be neu-
tralized with high acid made up of various tannages. The organic solids
will be reduced in an anaerobic-aerobic lagoon.

FEDERAL GRANT:$8 7 ,215 TOTAL EST. PROJ. COST : $124,593
PROJECT e 4UMBER : WPRD-133-01-68 PP8S MO . 1212
DESCRiPTiON OF PROJECT : The objectives of tF a oject are as follows:
1) To demonstrate on a pilot plant scale the primary and
secondary treatment, by the activated sludge process,
of mixed chrome tannery wastewaters aixi sanitary sewage.
2) To demonstrate the.pre-treatment of the tannery wastewater
by carbonation with flue-gas and up-flow sedimentation in
order to remove excess calcium, chromium, and sulfides.
3) To demonstrate the benefits of mixing municipal sanitary
sewage with tannery wastewaters to provide the biological
nutrients lacking in tannery wastes.
4) To determine design criteria for a scale up to a full
scale demonstration plant and to provide a basis for
estimating çhe costs of construction and operation of a
full scale plant.
5) To determine optimum methods of dewatering sludge, with
primary emphasis on concentration by centrifugation, with
aim being to dewater sufficiently to dispose of solids as
sanitary land fill.

VESCRIPTIOM OF PROJECT :
The four year proj ect wi].l provide a full scale demonstration and
Investigation of primary sedimentation, biological secondary treatment
utilizing aerated lagoons, and primary and secondary sludge dewatering
and disposal by means of pressure filtration and Incineration. The
system will treat the total waste flow of 2.1 MGD from the side leather
tannery. In addition an evaluation will be conducted to determine
the influence of final treatment plant effluent reuse on hide processing
and quality of the finished product by reusing it in the “limepaddle”
and “wash soak” tanning operations.
