Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant in Washington, D.C., is the largest advanced wastewater treatment plant in the world. [1] The facility is operated by the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority (DC Water). The plant opened in 1937 as a primary treatment facility, and advanced treatment capacity was added in the 1970s and ...
Dissolved air flotation. Dissolved air flotation ( DAF) is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewaters (or other waters) by the removal of suspended matter such as oil or solids. The removal is achieved by dissolving air in the water or wastewater under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank basin.
Tests will determine the quality of this wastewater. Wastewater quality indicators are laboratory test methodologies to assess suitability of wastewater for disposal, treatment or reuse. The main parameters in sewage that are measured to assess the sewage strength or quality as well as treatment options include: solids, indicators of organic ...

Moving bed biofilm reactor. Moving bed biofilm reactor ( MBBR) is a type of wastewater treatment process that was first invented by Professor Hallvard Ødegaard at Norwegian University of Science and Technology in the late 1980s. [ 1] The process takes place in an aeration tank with plastic carriers that a biofilm can grow on.
The standards are technology-based, i.e. they are based on the performance of treatment and control technologies (e.g., Best Available Technology). Effluent Guidelines are not based on risk or impacts of pollutants upon receiving waters. Since the mid-1970s, EPA has promulgated ELGs for 59 industrial categories, with over 450 subcategories.
Wastewater treatment. Wastewater treatment is a process which removes and eliminates contaminants from wastewater. It thus converts it into an effluent that can be returned to the water cycle. Once back in the water cycle, the effluent creates an acceptable impact on the environment. It is also possible to reuse it.
