the best we could expect for 2-3 weeks until the mixed liquor'
suspended solids build up occurs. Sludge from aeration basins
which do not have the oper balance of mixed liquor suspended
py
solids and the proper sludge age'may be difficult to settle.
Coagulants such as polymers or line may be added to help
settle the sludge in - the clarifiers. All sludge should be
returned from clarifiers'to accomplish the fastest sludge
buildup, i.e. , do not waste sludge to the anaerobic digesters;
if one of the other plants has sufficient solids content in
the aeration basin and aludge'is being wasted, then transport
this sludge by tanker truck to the aeration basin to be used
as a seed sludge. This may hasten the process of obtaining
proper solids content in the aeration basins.
General plant preventative maintenance and upkeep was.
halted during the occupation and has not yet restarted. We
anticipate that minor start-up mechanical and electrical
problems will occur due the lack proper maintenance during'
this period.
