An Introduction to Wastewater Treatment Design Considerations for Professional Engineers (civil engineering)

By Paul Guyer

This discussion identifies treatment design considerations for wastewater treatment facilities and/or plants with relatively small capacities, those constructed in recreational areas with wastewater flows less than 379 000 L/d (100,000 gal/d). (Note: these considerations generally apply to large treatment facility planning as well.) Factors to be considered in the preparation of a design for small wastewater facilities include site selection, treatment system selection, and design steps. Site selection considerations are presented elsewhere, and certain design steps and process selection criteria are to be found elsewhere. For proper design it is mandatory to know the quantity of wastewater to be expected, the monthly and daily flow distributions, as well as the wastewater composition, constituents, and strength.
