Abstract This study demonstrates that feeding liquid alkaline alumina, identified as sodium aluminate, to a small to medium (2.5 million gal per day) activated sludge wastewater treatment plant is a practical method of gaining several operational benefits. Specific benefits were found in the areas of solids handling and ease of sludge volume index control. Additional benefit was noted in the concentration of aerobically digested solids, particularly in cold weather. Reduction of suspended solids carryout of secondary clarifiers resulted from the sodium aluminate feed, reducing the loading to the tertiary treatment unit. Phosphorus removal in amounts approaching 80% were achieved with feed rates of 10 mg/liter as Al to the aeration basins. The cost of alkaline alumina addition was 2.6 cents per 1000 gallons of raw wastewater flow.
