Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facilities for Southeastern Michigan.

Abstract

This report delineates one major element in the Southeastern Michigan Wastewater Management Program. Presented herein are schematic designs and cost data for facilities to treat domestic and industrial wastewater, and surface runoff resulting from precipitation events. Facilities have been outlined to meet both present Michigan water quality standards and more stringent criteria which may be applicable in the foreseeable future. Conventional primary, secondary, and advanced waste treatment processes provide one approach to maintaining a high quality aquatic environment in the southeastern Michigan region. The information contained in this report provides the basis for evaluating this alternative for wastewater renovation. Further, the information is presented on a unit process basis so that it can be applied in various combinations with physical-chemical or land disposal arrangements to arrive at the most effective management program for the study region.
