NC Reclamation Facility Boosts Denitrification & Compliance While Reducing MicroC® 2000 Cost

A North Carolina water reclamation facility engages EOSi’s MicroC® process assessment and optimization services and achieves reduced energy consumption, reduced carbon dosing rate, and high denitrification efficiency for consistent permit compliance.

The North Carolina water reclamation facility is designed for a maximum flow of 3.6 MGD, consisting of one anoxic ditch and two oxidation ditches configured as an MLE — a Modified Ludzack-Ettinger process using nitrate produced in the aeration zone as a source of oxygen for treatment bacteria needed in the event of the breakdown of raw wastewater in the anoxic pan.
