Wake Up to Wastewater!

CWEA Members are invited to a tour of the Southern Region Tertiary Treatment Plant (SRTTP) at Camp Pendleton.  

Date: Wednesday, January 20, 2010

8:30 – 9 AM:  Introductory Presentation

9 – 10:30 AM: Guided Tour of SRTTP

The Southern Region Tertiary Treatment Plant (SRTTP) located in Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base is designed to treat up to 5.0 MGD using Sequencing Batch Reactors (SBR).  Approximately 1.0 MGD is reclaimed for use on Camp Pendleton during the summer months.  The SRTTP, designed by CDM, came online in August 2006 to treat wastewater from the Marine Corps Air Station.  The sewage enters the treatment plant through a mechanical bar screen into a wetwell.  Dry pit submersible pumps then pump the sewage through a grit collector, which is followed by the SBRs where it is treated for 320 min.  The treated sewage then enters an equalization basin and is directed through disk filters and finally a chlorine contact basin (CCB).  Solids from the sewage are diverted to an aerobic digester and then thickened and dewatered using a gravity belt and dewatering belt press.  Hypochlorite is generated onsite using food grade salt.

Please sign up for the tour through eventbrite. Space is limited, so sign up today! 

 

The breakfast will be sponsored by ADS Environmental Services.
