The Design and Testing of a Waterwaste Treatment Process suitable for Arctic ApplicationBromley, David E.G. 10 1900 (has links)
The purpose of the project was to design and test the components of a potential package sewage treatment plant suitable for the Arctic environment. The designed treatment plant was simplistic in concept while utilizing the advantages of both biological and physical-chemical treatment.
The system was tested over a ten-week period. The emphasis of the testing was on treatment of high-strength wastes. In addition the effects of temperatures and system start-up-shutdown conditions were assessed. The results indicated that the system operated well under most of the conditions tested. Both the physical-chemical and biological processes complemented each other with the former providing the necessary treatment at start-up and the latter providing low cost treatment once the system had been in. operation for a month.
With the high degree of treatment performance achieved, it was felt the process was feasible for Arctic application. However, further testing was recommended to develop the complete package unit. / Thesis / Master of Engineering (ME)
