For this operation, <br />all of the primary effluent and RAS is fed to the first aeration cell in each aeration basin. <br />Sludge volume indexes from over 2600 days of operation show that 25 percent of the <br />measurements fall between 150 and 175 rog/g; thus, 175 mg/g was used as the basis for <br />estimating future capacity with expanded facilities. Table 6.2.1-3 summarizes the dry and <br />wet season design criteria used for analysis for expanding the existing secondary system. <br /> <br />TABLE 6.2.1-3 <br />Design Criteria: Traditional Plug-Flow Aeration Basins <br />MWMC Facilities Plan, Eugene-Springfield <br /> <br /> Parameter Dry Season Wet Season <br />Temperature, degrees C 15.6 12.5 <br />Nitrification Safety Factor 2.0 N/A <br />Aerobic Volume 100% t00% <br />Aerobic SRT, days 7.8 5 <br />SVl, ml/g 175 175 <br /> <br /> Table 6.2.1-4 summarizes the facility requkements for expand~g the ex/sting secondary <br /> treatment facilities. <br /> <br /> MWMC_6.0_REV11 DOC 6-9 <br /> <br /> <br />
