Abstract
The Timpanogos Special Service District (TSSD) wants to improve their Wastewater treatment facility. They requested that the new facility accounts for the following:
• Smell coming from the drying beds.
• Future population growth in the area.
• New phosphorus limitations in the effluent set by the state of Utah.
• Treat wastewater to meet Type 1 reuse standards.
In Figure 1, the image displays the current service area for TSSD. TSSD serves 10 different cities, and currently discharges the effluent wastewater into Utah Lake. Utah Lake has problems with algal blooms. Reducing the amount of nutrients discharged into Utah Lake will prevent the algal blooms from occurring.
The state of Utah has set limitations on phosphorus removal to 0.1 mg/L. Aquatica Engineering has proposed a new design that addresses these set limitations.
