Collection System Take Home Problem Solution

Problem: Design a gravity collection system for 3 Type I (3 bedroom) and 3 Type I (4bedroom) homes. Each home connects to the gravity collection system directly (noseptic tank or effluent screen). The home lots are in line along Eagle Road and have afront lot dimension of 170 feet. Assume there is 170 feet between individual homeconnections and the treatment site is 600 feet from the last home connection. Useminimum slope.

1. What type and size pipe should be used for this collection system?

The minimum allowable diameter for the gravity collection sewer is 6” standarddimension ratio (SDR) 35 PVC pipe. The 6” minimum diameter pipe is used because thegravity collection system connects each individual residential service directly to thegravity collection sewer main.

2. Determine the design flow of the collection system.

From Minn. R. 7080.1860:Type I 3 bedroom home: 450 gpdType I 4 bedroom home: 600 gpd

3 homes x 450 gpd/home = 1350 gpd3 homes x 600 gpd/home = 1800 gpd

Wastewater flow from homes = 3150 gpd

Also need to incorporate inflow and infiltration (I/I) calculation.

From Minn. R. 7081.0140, need to allow for 200 gpd/inch/mile of collection sewer.

Need to determine the length of the collection system.

Length = 600 + 170 + 170 +170 + 170 +170 = 1450 feet

Page 5: Advanced Design and

Advanced Design and Inspection II • Homework • 05/10 5

1450 feet x (1 mile/5280 feet) = 0.27 miles

I/I = 200 gpd/in/mile x 6 in x 0.27 mi = 324 gpd

Total design flow of the collection system = 3150 gpd + 324 gpd = 3474 gpd

3. Will a 6 inch diameter gravity collection pipe have capacity to carry 50% of the dailyflow in 1 hour?

50% of the daily design flow = 0.5 x 3474 gpd = 1737 gpdNeed to convey this flow in 1 hour = need to carry 1737 gallons per hour1737 gph x (1 hour/60 min) = 29 gallons per minute

The capacity of the collection system is found using Q=VA and the Manning Equation

4. If this project were in St. Louis County, what is the minimum depth the gravitycollection pipe can be without insulation?

From the map in the Design Guidance, the minimum burial depth in St. Louis County is 9feet.

5. Assume the gravity pipe is placed at minimum depth at the first home connection.What is the depth of the gravity pipe at the treatment site using the minimumallowable slope?

The minimum depth is 9 feet from the previous question. The minimum slope if 0.01ft/ft. The length of the collection system is 1450 feet from a previous question.

Depth = 9 feet + (0.01 x 1450 ft) = 23.5 feet

Constructed Wetlands

1. In the operati on of wetlands, nitrogen and phosphorous may be assimilated by plant uptake, yet they both cannot be counted upon as being removed from the wastewater. Explain.

The uptake of nitrogen and phosphorous by plants occurs during the growing season, but during senescence in the fall and winter, plant death occurs and unless harvested and removed, the nutrients are recycled right back into the system.

2. Explain why normal non-pathogenic organisms known as coliforms are used to identi fy the presence of pathogens in wastewater.

It is very diffi cult and expensive to isolate and identi fy pathogens in wastewater, and since coliform organisms are excreted in large numbers by warm blooded animals and are relati vely easy to identi fy and enumerate, their presence is taken as presumpti ve, but not defi nite evidence of pathogens.

3. Although most species of animals are probably harmless or even benefi cial to the functi on of a constructed wetland, there are a few nuisance species. Name and describe two species and their impact on the wetland.

Burrowing rodents may disrupt berms and dikes and consume emergent vegetati on, and water fowl in large numbers may sti r up sediments and add excessive nutrients from their droppings.

4. In general does the climate have any infl uence on the functi oning of a wetland? Explain.

Since wetlands rely partly on biological decompositi on, the warmer climates are preferable. In additi on if ice covers the open water surface, it will impede the transfer of oxygen.

5. In spite of the wetland’s inherent appeal, there may be ti mes when the designer may have the unhappy experience of having to convince the public that they are not a viable opti on. Discuss.

Wetlands may not be an appropriate opti on for small communiti es where land and skilled labor are scarce and expensive. They should not be suggested if nitrogen and phosphorous removal are required.

6. At the present ti me wetland design is based upon current and reliable informati on. True or False? Discuss your answer.

False. At the present ti me wetland design is based upon a limited amount of observed data rather than scienti fi c theories, and thus the design is sti ll empirical.

7. A constructed wetland is 2000 ft 2 is area. Assume the surface edges of the constructed wetland are nearly verti cal. The media depth is 24 inches with the effl uent level maintained at 6 inches below the surface. The overall porosity (or void %) of the media surrounding the open surface area is 0.4 (40%).

How much fl ow (total volume) would have to enter the wetland to increase the water surface by 0.5 inches ? (Assume no outf low during this period.)

Page 22: Advanced Design and

Advanced Design and Inspection II • Homework • 05/1022

Aerobic Treatment of Wastewater and Aerobic Treatment Units

1. Name and explain two problems that severely complicate the proper functi oning of an aerobic treatment unit.

The extreme daily fl uctuati ons in wastewater organic strength and fl ow are parti cularly troublesome. The two to three hour period without nutrients stress the organisms and the two peak fl ows increase the surface overfl ow rate.

2. The nati onal Sanitati on Foundati on (NSF) Standard 40 has some signifi cant omissions when used to properly defi ne the water quality of ATU effl uents. Explain.

There should be standards for nitrogen, phosphorous, fecal coliform and possibly viruses.

3. Although there are two diff erent operati onal schemes used in small aerobic treatment units, there is one fundamental principle that remains the same for each scheme. Explain the fundamental process.

The fundamental process is to provide oxygen transfer to the wastewater with inti mate contact between the microbes and water.

4. Explain a good way to judge the quality of acti vated sludge in an aerobic treatment unit.

A good-quality acti vated sludge will have a golden brown color and an earthy smell if kept aerated.

5. Why is it likely that data from laboratory testi ng of aerobic treatment units should be viewed with cauti on?

Usually, typical residenti al wastewater is not used, conditi ons in the laboratory are ideal and the unit is not likely to be subjected to unatt ended operati onal problems.

6. Unless modifi cati ons are made to the aerobic treatment unit, no signifi cant nitrogen removal can be expected. Explain why.

While the organic nitrogen in the infl uent to the aerati on chamber will be in the ammonium form, it will be quickly oxidized to nitrate. Any biological conversion of nitrate to nitrogen gas will be limited by the lack of suffi cient carbonaceous matt er and an anaerobic environment.

7. In the ATU a very small insignifi cant amount of phosphorous may be removed by sedimentati on. If more removal is desired, what would have to be done?

Most likely, additi on of a chemical coagulant.

Disinfecti on

1. What is the goal of disinfecti on? The goal of disinfecti on is to reduce the number of pathogens in the treated effl uent so that the risk of disease is minimized.

2. Name 4 general categories of pathogens 1. Bacteria 2. Viruses 3. Protozoa 4. Helminths

3. Calculate the volume of the chlorine contact chamber required to provide 30 minutes of contact ti me for an average daily fl ow of 15,000 gallons per day.

Flow rate = 15,000 gallons per day ¸ 1440 minutes per day = 10.42 gallons per minute

Volume = 10.42 gallons per minute x 30 minutes = 312.5 gallons of chlorine x 1000 gallons x 1 gram/1000 mg = 0.033 gallons of liquid bleach

4. Disadvantages The chlorine residual, even at low concentrati ons, is toxic to aquati c life and treated wastewater

discharging to aquati c environments may require dechlorinati on. All forms of chlorine are highly corrosive and toxic. Thus storing, shipping, and handling pose a risk,

requiring special safety regulati ons. Chlorine oxidizes certain types of organic matt er in wastewater, creati ng more hazardous compounds

(e.g. trihalomethanes – THM’s). The level of total dissolved solids is increased in the effl uent The chlorine content of the wastewater is increased Chlorine residual is unstable in the presence of high concentrati ons of chlorine-demanding materials,

thus requiring higher doses to eff ect adequate disinfecti on. Some parasiti c species have shown resistance to chlorinati on, including oocytes of Cryptosporidium

parvum, Endamoeba hystolyti ca, and Giardia lamblia and eggs of parasiti c worms. Long-term eff ects of discharging dechlorinated compounds into the environment are unknown

5. Under what conditi ons would you recommend the use of UV disinfecti on? Why? Sites where fecal removal is needed and your registered product of choice requires UV to meet Treatment Level A or B.

Instructions for Completing an Operating Permit

The following instructions provide an explanation for local units of government to complete the operating permit template. This is intended to provide guidance to local units of governments (LGU) in developing operating permits for Type IV and Type V systems,including both residential and commercial systems. The template could be modified for holding tanks. Since the Management Plan is considered part of the operating permit, it needs to be attached to the operating permit. A signed contract, between the owner and Service Provider, should be attached to the operating permit to help ensure the owner has made the necessary arrangements to have the system maintained and monitored.

LGU Name, Department and Address – fill in the name, department and address of local unit of government at the top of the operating permit.

Wastewater Treatment and Dispersal Operating Permit No. – assign an operating permit number to be able to track the system over the years.

Permittee Name, Telephone Number, and Address – fill in the name, address and phone number of the owner.

Property Id. Number (GPS Location) – these are simply identifiers used by local units of government in the event the property address changes over time.

Name of Local Unit of Government – fill in the name of the local unit of government. This authorizes the Permittee to operate the wastewater treatment system at the address named above, according to the operating permit, attached Management Plan and contract with the Service Provider.

Issuance Date – fill in the date the operating permit is issued. The operating permit should not be issued until all required information is submitted.

Expiration Date – fill in the date when this operating permit expires. The first time an operating permit is issued to an owner, it should be issued for one (1) year. This helps ensure the owner actually does the required maintenance and monitoring during thefirst year. If the owner complies, the operating permit can then be issued for a longer period of time as determined by the local unit of government (typically 3 to 5 years). However, if the owner does not comply the first year, the second operating permit could,again, be issued for a period of one (1) year.

System Type – fill in as Type IV or Type V system. Holding tanks also require operating permits (Type II system).

Treatment Level – specify Treatment Level A, B, C, TN or TP. Treatment Level A = Carbonaceous Biochemical Oxygen Demand (CBOD) 15 milligrams per liter (mg/L), Total Suspended Solids (TSS) 15 mg/L, Fecal Coliform Bacteria 1000 per 100 ml; TreatmentLevel B = CBOD 25 mg/L, TSS 30 mg/L, Fecal Coliform Bacteria 10,000 per 100 ml; Treatment Level C = CBOD 125 mg/L, TSS 80 mg/L, Oil and Grease 20 mg/L; TN = 20 mg/L, or TP = 2 mg/L.

System Design Flow – fill in the design flow specified on the construction permit for the system. You may want to note both design flow and average daily flow, if applicable.

Residential/Commercial – specify if the system is residential or commercial. You may specify additional information, such as classification of dwelling, number of bedrooms; or type of commercial establishment.

System Components – provide a brief description of the system components. An example would be the following: 600 gallon trash tank, 600 gallon ECOPOD treatment device, 1 Salcor Ultra Violet (UV) light disinfection unit, 500-gallon pump tank, pump, floatsand controls, and 250-foot shallow trenches using pressure distribution.

Monitoring Requirements (Table)

The monitoring requirements specified in an operating permit are unique to the site and soil conditions of the property (its environmental sensitivity) and system complexity. The monitoring requirements include specific parameters to be monitored, targetlimits and the frequency and location of monitoring. The monitored parameters, at a minimum, would include: 1) wastewater flow -the most basic parameter to know in understanding system performance, 2) ponding in the soil treatment system and 3) surfacing ofthe soil treatment system. Monitoring for CBOD, TSS, fecal coliform bacteria and nitrogen are unique to the site, its receivingenvironment and complexity of the wastewater system. Field tests for temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen can be performed by the Service Provider to serve as general indicators of system performance.

1. Flow – flow to each system needs to be determined as specified in the Management Plan or as determined by the local unit of government. Flow can be determined several ways, using water meters, event counters, and running time clocks. Telemetry can also be used and has the advantage that flow can be determined continually.

The determination for the frequency of flow measurement is done on a case-by-case basis. At first, daily flow monitoring may be needed to determine average flow and peak flows to a system. After a period of time, weekly or monthly flow determination may be acceptable. Flow determinations once a year generally provide limited information.

2. CBOD – monitoring for CBOD is not typically required for the majority of wastewater systems used for single-family homes generating typical domestic strength effluent. However, monitoring for CBOD may be needed periodically. For example, there may be a need to audit systems as part of the product registration process in Minnesota or if the Service Provider is trying to troubleshoot a system. For commercial systems, monitoring for CBOD is generally necessary to determine CBOD removal efficiencies of proprietary treatment devices and/or organic loading rates to the soil’s infiltrative surface.

3. TSS – monitoring for TSS is not typically required for most residential wastewater systems that generate typical domestic strength effluent. However, turbidity measurements may be taken in the field by Service Providers. Monitoring for TSS may be needed periodically as part of an audit process for the registration of proprietary treatment products in Minnesota. For commercial systems, monitoring for TSS may be necessary.

4. Fecal Coliform Bacteria – monitoring for fecal coliform bacteria will generally be required for systems listed as Treatment Level A and Treatment Level B systems where reduced vertical soil separation is used.

5. Total Nitrogen and Total Phosphorus – monitoring for Total Nitrogen (TN) may be needed in areas identified as nitrogen sensitive environments. Monitoring for Total Phosphorus (TP) may be required in phosphorus sensitive lake environments.

6. Field Tests – these are tests performed by the Service Provider to help ‘monitor’ system performance and identify problems (troubleshooting a system). Although field tests are not a strict monitoring requirement, they are appropriate to list in the operating permit if specified in the Management Plan or in the product’s Operation and Maintenance Manual. The local unit of government will determine if the permittee is required to report field test results as part of the operating permit.

7. Ponding/Surfacing in Soil Treatment – all systems should be monitored periodically as specified in the Management Plan to determine extent and frequency of ponding in soil treatment systems. A check for surfacing is needed.

Maintenance Requirements (Table)

This table lists some of the basic maintenance requirements for each major component of the wastewater system. Since you can’t possibly list all the maintenance requirements in this table, it is best to reference the Management Plan. You could reference theproprietary product’s Operation and Maintenance Manual.

1. System Component – list each system component, including the septic tank, trash tank, effluent screen, pump tank and controls, proprietary treatment product, disinfection device, and soil treatment and dispersal system.

2. Maintenance – briefly identify the maintenance requirements of each major system component. For additional information, you could also reference the proprietary product documents listed on the MPCA Web site at http://www.pca.state.mn.us/programs/ists/productregistration.html.

3. Frequency – briefly identify the frequency of maintenance as per the systems Management Plan and Operation and Maintenance Manual.

Monitoring Protocol – this section of the operating permit states that testing needs to be performed in accordance with approved methods and the results submitted to the local unit of government.

Contingency Plan – briefly describes requirements if the system does not function as intended. The owner must notify the local unit of government when non-compliance occurs. The Management Plan may identify some of the corrective actions required or you will need to consult your Service Provider. The owner is responsible to obtain the services of a MPCA-licensed Service Provider to complete the required corrective measures. More detail could be added here by the local unit of government.

Authorization – fill in the length of time of the operating permit; this is typically one to five years. Fill in the name of the local unit ofgovernment in the second blank space. Next, fill in the name of the MPCA licensed Service Provider identified by the owner in contract; this is needed to help ensure the owner has made the necessary arrangements to have the system maintained and monitored.

The Operating Permits Hereby Granted to – print the name of the owner who signed the operating permit.

Signature of Permittee (and date of signature) – the owner signs and dates the operating permit.

By Order of – signature of the permitting authority, title, and date.
