City of Batavia Wastewater Treatment Facility - Executive Summary |
|
The City of Batavia currently operates a wastewater treatment facility with a design flow of 3.65 million gallons per day. The facility currently disinfects its effluent with chlorine using a gas based injection system that is fed by one-ton cylinders. Each vessel is capable of containing a maximum of 2,000 lbs of chlorine gas. The plant is to be expanded within the next two years to treat a design flow of 4.20 million gallons per day. The expansion will also include the installation of a ultra-violet disinfection system that will eliminate the need for the one-ton cylinders. The construction for this portion of the project is expected to be completed by June 2000. |
