| Abstract |
The Williamsburg Waste Treatment Plant is a complete-mix activated sludge plant equipped with surface-mechanical aeration devices. It is designed to treat 9.6 mgd of combined brewery and domestic waste. Only brewery waste was treated during the first three months of operation. Organic and hydraulic loads were low during these months since the incoming flow averaged only mgd. Plant loadings reached normal levels in April with the addition of domestic waste from the City of Williamsburg. The incoming flow averaged approximately 5 mgd for the final three months of the project. Despite many mechanical and operational problems associated with the start-up of the new plant, reductions in BOD5 averaged 97 percent while reductions in suspended solids averaged 92 percent.
