Notes "January, 1971." "Research conducted by the Rand Development Corporation and the County of Lake, Painsville, Ohio." Includes bibliographical references (pages 63-66).
Contents Notes Spent pickle liquor, as a source of ferric ion, was added to primary treatment facilities and found to be effective in removing more than 60% of the phosphorus contained in the sewage. When advanced means for more complete removal of the insolubilized phosphates are available, removals in excess of 90% are indicated. In addition, overall suspended solids removals averaged 61.5% and BOD and COD removals averaged 61.6 and 55.3 percent during a 23 month test period. Required iron dosage ranged from the theoretical minimum of 2.7 to a maximum of approximately 3.1 weights of ferrous iron per weight of phosphorus. The weight increase in sludge solids due to chemical precipitation of phosphorus was 100 lbs/million gallons/mg/liter of phosphorus in the influent. Total costs for treating a raw sewage containing 13 mg/l phosphorus are given.
