Abstract |
Container Corporation of America's (CCA) integrated pulp and paper mill at Brewton, Alabama is in the process of increasing pulping capacity from 900 tons per day to 1050 tons per day. Its waste effluent flows into the Conecuh River and then into the Escambia River. Preceding this expansion is the installation of additional secondary waste treatment facilities. During August 17-28, 1970, prior to activating additional waste treatment units, the Southeast Water Laboratory, Technical Services Division, Federal Water Quality Administration, conducted a 10-day investigation of waste treatment facilities and related stream quality conditions. The report presents the results of this study. (Author) |
