Chem Feed Problem

crack in chlorine chemical feed line cou

WWTF outfall

|
chemical feed malfunction. upon being notified of the high e-coli count we immediately took the indoor chlorine contact tank that we were using off line and switched over to the cleaned outdoor chlorine contact tank. upon investigation we found a leak in one of our chlorine chemical feed line couplings and repaired that. we changed the head on the chlorine chemical feed pump and checked the discharge volume for accuracy and it is accurate. we flushed the chlorine chemical feed line with carrier water. as an effective and temporary solution, we are currently running a chlorine chemical feed line over land so we can physically see the chlorine dripping into the effluent above the mixer in the chlorine contact tank. we plan to remedy the issue with a permanent fix over the next day or two.

chemical feed malfunction caused a drop in chlorine injection dosage to the chlorine contact tank final effluent. the sewage had been treated but the final effluent was not fully chlorinated which caused an elevated e-coli count.
