Guest Comment

Landowners cannot be held responsible for the actions of others that result in con-tamination of their property,

right? While that seems reasonable and logical, recent legal decisions in Ontar-io have forced innocent parties to re-mediate environmental contamination migrating from a neighbour’s property. This is a radical change to the perceived innocent landowner protections.

How do these changes impact envi-ronmental site assessments? What does it mean for merger and acquisitions? How could it impact commercial prop-erty transactions and how could lend-ers and insurance companies respond? While time and future transactions will ultimately provide these answers, the precedent-setting Kawartha Lakes case is worth the attention of senior environ-

BackgroundThe Kawartha Lakes incident be-

gan to unfold in December 2008. In what would be considered a relatively “routine” task, a homeowner had their

to a discharge point at Sturgeon Lake.

their insurance provider. After three months of conducting remedial activities on the subject and off-site properties, the homeowner’s insurance coverage was

now exceeding hundreds of thousands of dollars. Therefore, there were no funds available to continue the cleanup.

This is where the case becomes “in-teresting”. The Ontario Ministry of the Environment served an order on the Municipality of Kawartha Lakes, which had no involvement in the release, to take action to address this spill beyond the residential property. According to

the court documents, the MOE stated that the municipality was a “viable par-ty that can expeditiously act…” to ad-dress this contamination.

This “deep pockets pay” approach to remediation has raised concerns about how far reaching it can be. Additional-ly, does an innocent party need to clean up their own property if another party caused the pollution?

Assuming the Kawartha Lakes de-cision truly is the precedent-setting de-cision it appears to be, it may be wise to re-examine risk formulas relating to commercial or industrial property pur-chases. The fallout from this ruling may complicate transactions and, certainly, will require a more thorough under-standing of site and, also, surrounding site conditions.

Routine commercial/industrial property transactions

Most commercial property buyers know to start with a Phase One Envi-ronmental Site Assessment, which in-cludes an evaluation of the history of the subject property and the surround-ing properties. However, a Phase One is just information gathering and there is no intrusive sampling involved. This

-

Kawartha Lakes decision, are increas-ingly important in managing risk.

A typical Phase One is not likely to produce details relative to groundwa-ter, unless a historical hydrogeological investigation has been conducted. In most cases, the environmental profes-sional must look at topography, surface features, nearby surface water bodies or other data resources to infer a ground-

which of the surrounding properties is upgradient is of utmost importance.

To more thoroughly evaluate ground-

need to be installed and analytical data collected along the upgradient property boundary. This allows you to make an informed decision about the potential for migration of contaminants to your property. Prior to the Kawartha Lakes decision, it may not have been neces-sary to conduct a Phase Two investi-gation. However, after the Kawartha Lakes decision, these Phase Two inves-tigations may become more prevalent.

It is also important to consider what is hydraulically down gradient of your property, especially if the upgradi-ent neighbour already has impacted

groundwater. For example, if a sensitive ecosystem such as a lake, parkland, or residential property could be impacted by contamination that simply crosses your property, would this be an “unrea-sonable” risk for your company to con-sider? Could the MOE name you as one of several responsible parties to address the contamination?

In other words, the Kawartha Lakes decision leads us to believe that if your polluted neighbour doesn’t address the groundwater contamination problem, it could become your problem.

When evaluating neighbouring prop-erties, you might want to consider their current chemical use and handling prac-

-cial health. For example, if your inves-tigation indicates that a neighbouring property owner handles chemicals poor-

healthy, could this impact you in the future? What if they have a release and subsequently go bankrupt? This may be an overly cautious but not unreasonable consideration, in light of the Kawartha Lakes decision.

If you are concerned about the neigh-bouring property, should you consider conducting annual monitoring of the groundwater to document the ground-water quality conditions? Could you use this data and information to demonstrate impacted groundwater has migrated onto your property? How would your lawyer advise you to protect your investment?

Future real estate developmentsThe Kawartha Lakes decision may

have developers, business owners, and municipalities contemplating their future liabilities. Purchasers of com-mercial properties will now want to reconsider the cost to purchase land in

likelihood of contaminated neighbour-ing properties. Municipalities could see an increased interest in businesses pur-

Mergers and acquisitionsThe Kawartha Lakes decision may im-

pact the merger and acquisition (M&A) decisions process and could lead to more asset purchases rather than property pur-chases. The majority of our clients have elected to conduct Phase Ones (or at least

hybrid Phase Ones) when considering an acquisition of another company. Typi-cally, clients considering M&A activity want ballpark environmental liability estimates, such as, “is the potential lia-bility at the property $50,000, $500,000, $5,000,000, and so on”.

However, the Kawartha Lakes de-cision may shift attention onto the po-

-ability of neighbouring properties and companies.

Risk factors

Lenders may be somewhat reluctant to provide mortgage funding if it is dif-

-ly as it relates to impacts from another party. They may also consider re-eval-uating their risk formula. Of course, each project is different, but from our

concern for a lender.If you are the innocent party that is

served an order from the MOE, will your insurance policy cover you or will you be paying out of pocket for any remedial costs? We are not aware of an insurance company that has developed a policy that would cover environmental impacts emanating from another property. Again,

industry to develop a policy if the future

environmental costs are unknown or can-not be accurately estimated. This is an-other risk factor to consider.

ConclusionAs it stands, the Kawartha Lakes

decision is a “game changer.” It may be wise to consider a number of “what ifs.” What if the neighbouring property

have a good environmental policy in place? What if they have a release of these chemicals? What if these chem-icals migrate to your property and to downgradient properties? What if they

the only “viable party that can expedi-tiously act?”

At a minimum, it is important to un-derstand where potential contaminants are, and whether they pose an exposure risk, an off-site risk, and/or if they pose an investment risk.

By surrounding yourself with the right legal and technical advisors, you can get help with any transaction process and get feedback early. Trust the advice of your team, especially when they tell you things you don’t want to hear.

Railroad associations support safer rail car

regulations

Canadian Minister of Transport Lisa Raitt’s proposed regulations will intro-duce new standards for certain rail tank cars, replacing existing standards ref-erenced in the Transportation of Dan-gerous Goods Regulations. Regulations will require that new DOT 111 tank cars be built with thicker steel requirements,

The Railway Association of Canada believes this is an important step toward a North American phase-out of lega-cy tank cars and introduction of higher standard cars. In November, the Associ-ation of American Railroads urged the U.S. Department of Transportation to press for requiring all tank cars used to

EPA describes impacts to salmon and water

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s report, “An Assessment of Potential Mining Impacts on Salmon Ecosystems of Bristol Bay, Alaska,” concludes that large-scale mining in the Bristol Bay watershed poses risks to salmon and Alaska Native cultures.

To assess potential mining impacts to salmon resources, the EPA consid-ered realistic mine scenarios based on a preliminary plan that was published by Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. and submitted to the U.S. Securities and Ex-change Commission.

The EPA estimates extensive tracts of wetlands, ponds, and lakes would be destroyed and/or polluted from both the routine operation and accidents and fail-ures of mines and waste and wastewater management operations.

The assessment found that the Bristol Bay ecosystem generated $480 million in economic activity in 2009 and pro-vided employment for over 14,000 full and part-time workers. The region sup-

Chemical spill forces “do not use” order

West Virginia declared a state of emer-gency as contaminated water supply affected hundreds of thousands. A leak of 4-methylcyclohexanemethanol (MCHM) into Elk River, 2.5 km up-stream from a public water supply in-take, caused the West Virginia American Water Company to issue a “do not use” order to its customers. MCHM is used to process coal and has an obvious odour reported to smell like licorice.

The West Virginia Department of En-vironmental Protection issued a Cease Operations Order to Freedom Industries Etowah River Terminal, LLC, in con-nection with the company’s leak. It was ordered to empty 11 remaining storage tanks.

According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention, scientists rec-ommended a screening level of 1 ppm for drinking water. Pregnant women are cautioned to consider an alternative drinking water source until the chemical is at non-detectable levels in the water distribution system.

‘Doomed Glaciers of Africa’ to be profiled

A two-week expedition of western Uganda’s Rwenzori Mountains, con-ducted by Pax Arctica, Makerere Uni-versity’s Mountain Resource Centre and Green Cross International, is being launched to raise awareness on Africa’s vanishing glaciers and the global water crisis.

Scientists have predicted the glaciers located in the Rwenzori Mountains, or Mountains of the Moon, may cease to exist in two decades, possibly as early as the mid-2020s. Studies have shown that from 1906 to 2003, the area covered by glaciers has been reduced from 7.5 km2

to less than 1 km2. It is expected that the Uganda expe-

dition will provide valuable information about the effects of climate change on Africa’s fast-vanishing glaciers, and the consequences on water shortages and water ecosystems in this region. Other

objectives are to investigate the compo-sition of plant species in the region, and develop the Mountain Research Cen-tre’s glacial monitoring capacities.

Pulitzer Prize winning writer Tom Knudson wrote that people familiar with the Rwenzori Mountains have noticed a disturbing shift in decreasing precipita-tion patterns in recent years. The lack of rainfall has caused many trees to die, diminishing the region’s ability to soak up and store water, leaving downstream villages at risk for water shortages.

$764,000 grant goes to Alberta boreal forest

researcher

A University of Alberta Agriculture, Life and Environmental Sciences (ALES) researcher was awarded an NSERC Strategic Grant of $764,000 to develop tools to optimize the harvest of Alber-ta’s boreal forest, while safeguarding its biodiversity and productivity. Ellen Macdonald is a forest ecologist with the Department of Renewable Resources.

The three-year study will be conduct-

ed on the EMEND (Ecosystem Manage-ment Emulating Natural Disturbance) site, an experimental forest located just northwest of Peace River in which a very large experiment in variable reten-tion harvesting (leaving trees or clumps of trees in a harvested area because it helps maintain forest biodiversity) was established in 1998.

Macdonald said the value of variable retention harvesting is well understood but not necessarily how to optimally place that retention in order to support the recovery of forest productivity and biodiversity after a selective harvest.

“We haven’t talked about where on the landscape would be best to harvest or leave alone, for example, if it’s wet-ter or drier. How important is landscape position and land type? Are there some

the forest site, the moisture of the site, and the biodiversity of the site - that will allow us to be able to tell forestry com-panies to harvest or leave it un-harvest-ed? This will help us understand this,” explained Macdonald.

Macdonald and her collaborators will use data collected over the past 15 years,

on a wide variety of measures such as soil carbon, plant and beetle diversity and ecosystem function. In addition, the researchers will be using data obtained from remote sensors, providing data on topography and important site condi-tions such as wetness and tree heights and distribution.

System Design

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the appli-cation and approximate solution of fluid dynamics equations to predict the behaviour of a fluid within a specified boundary. While CFD modeling has been

an accepted design tool in the aerospace and automotive indus-tries for several decades, it is now becoming an increasingly popular tool in the water/wastewater industry.

The aim of this article is to give water and wastewater pro-fessionals an overview of the basic concepts of CFD modeling, so that they will have a better understanding of how this tech-nology can be applied to their industry.

Basic CFD theoryThe main equations that describe fluid dynamics were for-

mulated in the 19th century. These are called the Navier-Stokes Equations. A variation of this equation is defined as follows:

Where:U: velocity (vector)t= time

= fluid densityp=pressure (scalar)R=turbulence dissipation

In simple words this equations means:

Until now, the Navier-Stokes equations have only been solved for very particular and simplified cases. However, with the evolution of computers, approximations to these equations can be obtained by using “numerical methods”. The above equation states that mass and momentum is conserved; if it were to be used for energy, it would have to be modified to include energy conservation.

Because differential equations describe continuous rates of change, the strategy for solving these complex equations is dis-cretisation. Discretisation is defined as the approximation of a continuous problem into finite quantities, thus obtaining a “numerical solution” of the equation. The simple example in Figure 1 illustrates this concept.

In Figure 1, the area of the shape “A” is to be calculated. It is bound by a continuous line. Due to the shape of the area, it can-not be easily calculated with any simple formula. Therefore, the large region is divided into smaller rectangles, the area of which can be easily calculated, and the area is approximated. With smaller rectangles, the accuracy of the solution is increased as the error is reduced.

The development and usage of numerical methods for ob-

taining approximate solutions of equations is an extensive and complicated science. Although commonly used by engineers, development and implementation are usually left almost solely to mathematicians and computer scientists. Nevertheless, it is important for any engineer, who uses CFD to model real world engineering problems, to have a basic understanding of fluid mechanics fundamentals and numerical solution algorithms.

While the complexity of CFD models can vary widely, the basic steps are common to all models. They are the following:• Building the model geometry – similar to CAD, a two or

tridimensional model is generated using software.• Meshing the model – transforming the geometry into a col-

lection of cells (i.e., finite volumes), which will be used for the CFD model calculation.

• Setting up the boundary conditions – establishing the bound-aries of the model, and the inlet and outlet conditions (veloc-ity, pressure, turbulence kinetic energy, etc.).

• Running the CFD model – the computer starts calculating the fluid behaviour across each cell in the model.

• Post-processing – displaying the results of the CFD simula-tions using graphical representation.When developing a CFD model, it is often fluid dynamics

behaviour that needs to be considered, as these properties can have a significant impact on the behaviour of the fluid being studied. For example, it is important to remember that turbu-lence and vorticity are not to be confused, and require different CFD boundary conditions.

Turbulence is defined as chaotic or erratic behaviour of flow. In fluid mechanics, the Reynolds number is defined as the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces. As the number is increased, the fluid flow becomes turbulent.

In basic fluid mechanics, the Bernoulli Equation is modified

to include a headloss factor which accounts for pressure losses due to turbulence effects. Darcy-Weibasch or Hazen Williams equations can be used to determine headloss factors and to pre-dict pressure loss between two points. This practical approach is often sufficient for most fluid mechanics engineering problems, when the actual turbulence effects and mechanism do not have to

be fully modeled (e.g., estimating pressure loss in a force main).For many other engineering problems, this approach is not

sufficient (e.g., anaerobic digester mixing optimization), and a more detailed modelling and understanding of turbulence is required.

Detailed turbulence models were developed in the 20th century. One of these models is the “k-epsilon” turbulence model, which is one of the most widely used and validated in CFD. The model is based on the Reynolds Averaged Navi-er-Stokes equations,which are a statistically averaged modifi-

cation of the original Navier-Stokes.The model defines two parameters - “k” which is the turbu-

lence kinetic energy factor and “ ” the turbulence dissipation rate. There are many variations of the k-epsilon model. One of them is the two-equation k-epsilon model, where an equation for the kinetic energy is described as follows (steady-state and no-source):

Likewise, a second equation is developed for the epsilon fac-tor (energy dissipation rate):

Where:=turbulence dissipation factor

= constant, equal to 1.3C1 = constant equal to 1.44C2 = constant equal to 1.92

The “k” and “epsilon” equations have to be discretised and solved for all the domain’s finite volumes, as they relate to ve-locity gradients in all three directions.

The k-epsilon model is only valid for fully turbulent flows. An additional model has to be developed to model turbulence near wall boundary conditions, where viscous, low-Reynolds number effects are dominant. In this domain, shear stresses by a wall friction factor, which is not the same friction factor used in standard headloss equations such as Darcy-Weibasch.

SolversThere are many solvers available for various cases and ap-

plications. If steady state, incompressible, turbulent, and single phase flow is assumed, the Semi Implicit Methods Pressure Linked Equations (SIMPLE) algorithm solver can be success-fully used with good results and reduced computation time.

The flowchart in Figure 2 describes the SIMPLE algorithm.

Each iteration described in Figure 2 calculates parameters for each finite volume cell created during the geometry and meshing generation. This requires the computation of a for-midable quantity of calculations that would not be practical without a computer. This is one reason why CFD software has become popular in conjunction with the advancement of com-puter technologies.

For many water engineering problems, the SIMPLE algo-rithm provides a simplified but robust solution. Many more al-gorithms are available; however, the SIMPLE algorithm is used in 95% of water/wastewater CFD simulations.

It is also important to note that CFD solvers, turbulence models, meshing utilities, and codes are being continuously developed every year. As the field progresses, some of the ma-terial introduced here could be completely obsolete in a few years.

As previously mentioned, many other solvers are available and many more are being developed every year. This applies not only to fluid dynamics, but also to heat transfer phenomena. The various types of physics that can be modeled with finite element and finite volume techniques, along with the adequate solver algorithms, are shown in Figure 3.

Case study 1: TorontoThe first case study discusses the design of a vortex inlet

for a new construction stormwater sewer located in Toronto, Ontario. Unique design constraints required hydraulic modeling using pilot scale models. Following the testing of the pilot mod-els, a CFD model was developed to verify the design. This was initially validated by comparing the results with the pilot scale model. Once validated, the CFD model was run at multiple flow rates to evaluate performance of the vortex inlet.

The Vortex Inlet model mesh is shown in Figure 4, with points indicating the corners of each mesh cell. This model was created using a CFD geometry program where the model is constructed, followed by a meshing program that converts the geometry into mesh cells, to be used for the numerical sim-ulation. The size of the mesh cells is dependent on the detail

required. Simulations with large numbers of mesh cells, require greater computational power, therefore optimization of mesh size is often required for CFD simulations.

CFD simulation results of the Vortex Inlet model at varying flow rates are shown in Figures 5, 6 and 7. Given that the Vor-tex Inlet was to be located in a storm sewer, there was a high degree of variability in the flow. Running CFD simulations of the wide range of flow rates gave the design team increased confidence in their design.

Case study 2: SudburyThe second case study covers CFD modeling of a bypass

channel as part of a retrofit project at an existing wastewater treatment plant in Sudbury, Ontario. The conceptual design of

the retrofit included a bypass channel for peak flows. However, the geometry of the bypass channel was unconventional, and a CFD model was developed to better understand the flow pat-terns within the proposed bypass channel.

Once created, the model allowed the design team to better understand the areas of the channel affected by high levels of turbulence and vorticity. They could then consider geometry changes to reduce these turbulent zones, or increase them (in a dedicated stilling well mixing chamber). The model also al-lowed the design team to identify areas of stagnant flow.

Edmonton completes 1.2 km $44M sanitary sewer tunnel project By Mohammed Al-Bataineh and Jason Lueke

Cranes carrying equipment from barges travelling across the river to avoid environmental damage.

22-West Edmonton Tunnel.indd 28 2/7/14 12:36 PM


Wastewater CollectionThree additional advanced tech-

niques were used: construction simu-lation, 3D and 4D visualization, and failure mode and effect analysis. These were typically employed as part of risk analysis, value engineering, or con-structability workshops.

Hydraulic and particle modelingAdvanced hydraulic modeling tech-

niques were used in the design, includ-

dynamics models, and a physical model of the tunnel itself. University research-ers helped to develop and review the models. The real-time control structure was especially challenging to model, and multiple rounds of modeling were required, as construction challenges and

on the entire system also had to be in-vestigated, and several critical down-stream improvements and changes that would be necessary for its full operation

A grit analysis was also performed, which considered particle size, settling velocity, scour velocity, rising velocity,

This analysis was used to show that the $7-million pump station in the original design could be eliminated, as the scour-

pipes would remove over 99% of the grit.

Construction simulationThe use of a simulation modeling

approach develops construction plans

that are both accurate and transparent, especially for tunneling projects. These plans account for resource interactions, processes on-site, external interferences, and various constraints. Site layout, site

-ference with the construction processes can be analyzed and accounted for.

The results are realistic plans that consider project constraints and inter-actions with the outside world. A sig-

over traditional forecasting methods is the factor of randomness beyond that of distribution sampling.

3D and 4D visualization3D models of individual pieces of

the structures to be built are constructed -

tions provided by the design/drafting team. As in the real structure, the model

pieces can then be arranged into sub-structures, and subsequently assembled into structures of increasing complexity. Employing additional modeling soft-ware to manage the model pieces, their arrangement, and their sequence in a construction context, gives the visual-ization a fourth dimension, that being time. Video replay of the construction sequence proved to be an invaluable discussion tool.

Failure mode and effects analysisBecause the real-time control struc-

ture gate operation was critical to the success of the project, a full failure analysis was performed. Failure mode and effects analysis is a method that examines potential failures in products or processes and helps select remedial actions.

with the tunnel, the method productivi-ty delay model technique was used for several months to quantify defective components and pinpoint the sources of delay during day-to-day operations.

Production was tracked for every shift, and interruptions were recorded via a data sheet and allocated by per-centage to certain causes, such as ex-ternal (e.g., weather), electrical, crane, etc. The key causes for any delay then quickly became clear.

The construction of the tunnel was planned to have minimal impact on the sensitive river valley. The laydown site was placed within a park, which was extensively re-landscaped after the completion of the project. Only exist-ing access roads were used, and trucks and cranes were barged across the river where necessary.

Water SupplySingle cases of Legionnaires’ disease

are more common than outbreaks. Here in Canada, in late September 2005, 127 residents of a nursing home in Toronto were infected with Legionella pneu-mophila. Within a week, 21 of the res-idents had died. The source of the out-break was traced to the air-conditioning cooling towers on the roof.

More recently, in September 2012, there was an outbreak in Québec City. One hundred and eighty people were infected and 13 of them died. This outbreak was associated with contam-ination of water in industrial cooling towers.

Occurrence of Legionella in water systems

Legionella species are found virtu-ally everywhere in nature but primarily exist in aquatic environments. However, some species have been isolated in pot-ting soils and moist soil samples. They can survive in a wide range of water conditions such as in temperatures of 0oC – 63oC, a pH range of 5.0 – 8.5 and a dissolved oxygen concentration in wa-ter of 0.2 – 15 ppm.

Several studies have demonstrated that Legionella is widespread in natural surface freshwater sources such as lakes and streams. It has also been found in marine waters.

Legionella bacteria have been detect-ed in groundwater, but at levels lower than generally found in man-made water environments. This is thought to be due

groundwater compared with the often -

face waters and man-made environments.Man-made water systems, such as

components of water distribution sys-tems and cooling towers, are believed to

of Legionella in potable water. Outbreaks of Legionella infection

in several countries have been linked to cooling towers and evaporative con-densers in hospitals, hotels, and public buildings.

Whirlpools and spas provide ideal conditions for Legionella because they are maintained at temperatures suitable for their growth. Organic nutrients that often accumulate in these waters also support Legionella -ters can act as protective reservoirs or niches. Other related sources include

spring water spas and saunas.Legionella has rarely been isolated

from wastewater. This could be because

high concentration of other fast growing bacteria in wastewater.

Potable water supplies and distribution systems

There is extensive evidence of Legio-nella occurring in a variety of plumbing equipment, including faucets, shower heads, hot water tanks, and water storage tanks. As awareness of the ecology and epidemiology of Legionella has increased, attention has shifted from heat-exchange units, such as cooling towers, to potable water distribution systems as sources of human exposure and infection.

Transmission to humansTransmission to humans is primar-

of contaminated water are drawn deep into the lungs.There is very little, if any, evidence of human-to-human transmis-sion, and there is no evidence of any an-imal reservoirs.

Sampling for LegionellaSampling is an important part of

monitoring water systems for Legionel-la contamination. Test samples can be collected from sources such as faucets,

-heads. These sources are usually sam-pled by disassembling, swabbing and scraping to obtain Legionella-bearing debris or scale.

The most effective procedure for ob-taining samples is by inserting sterile cotton swabs into the interior surface of the water source. Swab sampling has been shown to recover higher con-centrations of Legionella organisms than water sampling. It is also the pre-ferred sampling method because swabs

are easier to transport and require less processing time than straight water samples.

To collect samples for Legionellatesting, use the following procedures:• If sampling high risk environments,

use high efficiency particulate respi-rators, gloves and safety goggles for personal protection.

• Take care not to generate fine drop-lets when sampling.

• Obtain sterile bottles containing a preservative from the lab. One thou-sand mililitre bottles are required for potable water and 500 ml bottles for non-potable water.

• Leave an air space in the bottle.• Label the samples.

When collecting samples from a po-table water source: • Collect two sets of samples if possi-

ble. One set from the hot water sup-ply and the other from the cold water supply. Take the first sample of 1000 ml directly from the tap and let the water run for 60 seconds or longer then take the second sample.

• Wearing gloves, carefully remove

aerators and swab inside the faucet or showerhead.

• Label the samples.When collecting samples from a

non- potable water source:• For water from cooling towers,

whirlpool spas or ornamental foun-tains, collect 300 ml from the inlet and outlet side and from any filters and cooling tower pack and sump.

• Leave air space in the bottle. • Look for any slime or biofilm and

take swab sample.• Label the samples.

Controlling Legionella in water systems

Effective control of Legionella re-quires full risk assessment of hot and cold water systems and ensuring that adequate measures are in place to con-trol the risks. Several strategies can be applied to control Legionella growth. These include:

a) Using temperature control - Water services should be operated at temperatures that prevent Legionella growth. For example:• Hot water storage tanks should store

water at 60°C or higher.• Hot water should be distributed at

50°C or higher.• Cold water should be stored and dis-

tributed below 20°C.Hot water storage tank temperatures

should be checked every month and

cold water tank temperatures at least every six months.

b) Routine monitoring of the water system - The water system should be routinely checked by a competent per-son and cleaned in accordance with the risk assessment.

Stagnant water favours Legionella growth. Therefore, to reduce risk:• Remove dead legs/dead ends in pipe-

work. • Flush out infrequently used outlets

(including showerheads and taps) at least weekly and clean.

• De-scale shower heads and hoses at least quarterly.

• Clean cold water storage tanks pe-riodically and drain water from hot water tanks to check for debris or signs of corrosion.c) Engineering controls - Design

water systems to minimise Legionella growth by:• Keeping pipe work as short and direct

as possible.• Adequately insulating pipes and

tanks.• Using materials that do not encourage

the growth of Legionella.• Preventing contamination, for exam-

ple by fitting tanks with lids and in-sect screens.d) Use of biocides - Since Legio-

nellaand other micro-organisms, complete control using biocides, such as chlorine

biocides remain effective, their appli-cation will need suitable assessment as part of the overall water treatment program, including proper installation, maintenance and monitoring.

e) Regular monitoring of the wa-ter systems - Water samples should be collected and analyzed for Legio-nella periodically (usually every four to six months for routine monitoring), to demonstrate that bacteria counts are acceptable. The frequency should be determined in accordance with the risk assessment.

Wastewater Aeration

many small municipalities have either replaced their lagoon systems with a mechanical plant, or have opted to pump their wastewater to a nearby municipal-ity for treatment. Initially, a mechanical plant appeared to be a very desirable op-tion for Aylmer. Higher quality effluent can be achieved in a smaller footprint, which allows more land for other devel-opment and improvements.

Unfortunately, a deeper analysis re-vealed that the cost of designing and building a new mechanical plant was going to far exceed the available budget. The only feasible alternative left was to upgrade their existing infrastructure. Furthermore, they needed a wastewater treatment system that would not increase ongoing operational and maintenance costs. A mechanical plant, with many more moving parts, would not be likely to accomplish that.

Similar to much of Canada’s wastewater treatment infrastruc-ture, the majority of the Town of Aylmer, Ontario’s wastewa-

ter lagoons were significantly expanded in the 1980s. Now, more than 30 years later, they have begun to show their age.

Despite the fact that Aylmer (Pop. 7,300) has one of the largest wastewa-ter lagoon systems in Ontario, they were still relying on a severely outdated aer-ation system. One hundred and ninety two coarse bubble static tube aerators and their air laterals were beginning to fail. Air from the blower system gushed out of breakages in the aeration lines. As a result, ammonia and BOD levels suffered greatly, and the facility risked falling out of compliance with Ontario Ministry of the Environment.

Rod Tapp, Director of Operations for the Town turned to Peter Penner from Cyril J. Demeyere (CJDL) Consulting Engineers to help rectify this problem.

Evaluation criteriaThe largest hurdle for Aylmer to

overcome in this project was funding. They needed a system that could be installed on a limited budget, as well as maintained and operated without in-creased costs. Also, as the lagoon cells work in series to provide sufficient stor-age and treatment time, they could not afford to incur a long period of system downtime. Lastly, they wanted to main-tain the turbulent and effective water mixing in the 5.2m deep Cell #1 that they received from their existing coarse bubble system. This was needed in order to ensure only limited sludge accumula-tion over time.

Mechanical treatment plantIn recent years effluent release limits

have become increasingly stricter. These regulations, combined with ever-grow-ing populations, can be difficult to man-age for small municipalities like Aylmer that have limited financial and human resources.

In an effort to meet new standards,

Mechanical surface aeratorsSurface aerators are commonly uti-

lized in wastewater lagoons, similar to Aylmer’s. There are some benefits that met Aylmer’s evaluation criteria. For example, they are portable, and can be quickly installed without incurring downtime. However, maintenance and operation costs would increase from their current system, as surface aerators can malfunction, especially in colder climates.

Furthermore, surface aerators have relatively low energy efficiency (SAE 1.5 to 2.25 lb O2/hp-hr) as compared to diffused technologies. This level of energy efficiency was bound to increase the operation costs of the Aylmer lagoon aeration system.

Tapp was also concerned about the limited zones of mixing influence. Sur-face aerators with the most advanced

Wastewater Aerationmixing capabilities max out around 2.5 to 3.0m. Since Cell#1 at the Aylmer la-goons is 5.2m in depth, the lower half of the water column would remain un-touched. This would result in decreased aerobic activity and increased sludge accumulation.

According to Penner, “the longer that the solids remain in suspension, with opti-mum oxygen levels, the greater the micro-organisms’ ability to complete the natural treatment process to remove nutrients and minimize sludge accumulation.”

Fine bubble aerationAs a means of counteracting the low

energy efficiency of the surface aeration system, CJDL also considered fine bub-ble aeration technology. SAEs of 4-7 lb O2/hp-hr translates into much lower operating costs, and a much more sus-tainable system option. Furthermore, a fine bubble system could potentially utilize the existing blowers. This type of arrangement would result in fewer on-shore motors to maintain, as compared to surface aeration.

However, research performed by Pen-ner revealed that fine bubble diffusers were prone to clogging. The tiny holes in the diffuser material are susceptible to being blocked by solids or natural foul-ing buildup. This would likely increase maintenance costs as they would have to be cleaned and replaced regularly.

With a fine bubble system such as this, a floating lateral design is neces-sary. Tapp expressed serious reserva-

tions about this type of design, saying: “Cell#1 in the lagoons has 7.8 hectares of surface area and is wide open to the prevailing winds. Once the ice starts to melt around the edges, the whole sheet of ice will move and shift with the wind, causing a lot of stress on a float-ing aeration system. If we lose one of the floating laterals, the whole string of individual aerators gets shut down and taken out of service until spring when repairs can be completed.”

MARS Aeration SystemAs a result of research on the internet,

CJDL discovered the MARS Aeration System and, through detailed consulta-tion with Triplepoint Water Technolo-gies, were able to design a system that met all of Aylmer’s criteria.

The MARS Aeration System is a hy-brid that combines the efficiency of fine bubble systems with the mixing capabil-ities of coarse bubble static tube technol-ogy in one portable unit. As a result, it can be easily lowered from a small boat into a lagoon from the surface of the water, eliminating the need for dewatering of the lagoon and limiting system downtime.

Each unit’s air supply can be isolated via its own individual airline and on-shore valve. Similarly, a stainless steel tether allows each unit to be pulled to the surface individually, in the event that maintenance is necessary.

The unique design incorporates EPDM fine bubble diffusers to avoid clogging problems.

Triplepoint’s staff worked closely with CJDL and the Town of Aylmer to customize the system layout to suit the high organic loading at the lagoon’s Cell#1 inlet location and to avoid the defunct aeration system that was par-tially abandoned in place. Triplepoint also addressed the Town’s concerns with coupling successive lengths of weighted tubing by using stainless steel fittings to provide strength and corrosion resistance.

Following the first two years of op-eration, there has been no maintenance required or deficiencies to address. The quality of the treated lagoon effluent has improved and has easily met the strict quality objectives set out in the Minis-try of Environment’s Certificate of Ap-proval.

The Ontario Clean Water Agency (OCWA) operates the lagoon system under contract with the Town. Ac-cording to Dale Le Britton, Operations Manager at OCWA, “the new aeration system has definitely made an improve-ment in the quality of our final effluent for release. We have experienced higher dissolved oxygen levels with less run time on the blowers and we have been able to reduce the discharge phosphorus using less chemical addition. The op-erators are pleased with how easy it is to control air flow and have not experi-enced any maintenance issues.”

Pumps

Positive displacement peristaltic (hose) pumps technology was patented in 1925 in France. Its design and operational charac-

teristics make it a wise choice in a wide range of water-handling applications - from moving viscous and/or abrasive slurries to the transfer of water-thin,

-tive materials.

Peristaltic pumps satisfy the require-ments of such a wide range of applica-tions because their operation is based on the alternating contraction and relax-ation of the hose, forcing the contents to move through the pump and into the

-

and is squeezed between shoes on the rotor and the inside of the pump casing. This rotating action moves the product through the hose at a constant rate of displacement. The hose restitution after

Peristaltic pump technology proves its worth in water/wastewater-handling operations By Tom O’Donnell

Complex water and wastewater treatment operations require reliable pump technology, like that offered by Abaque™ Series Peristaltic (Hose) Pumps (inset).

#12 Peristaltic pumps.indd 38 2/7/14 1:07 PM


the squeeze produces an almost full vac-uum that draws the product into the hose from the intake piping.

The pump casing is lubricated to cool the pump and lengthen the service life of the shoes and hose. Since the product only contacts the hose and not the in-ternal pump components, this pumping technology is well suited for abrasive and corrosive applications.

Peristaltic pumps also main-tain excellent volumetric consis-tency, making them ideal for the strict dosing and 24/7 operating cycles that can be required in wastewater treatment applica-tions. The pump’s seal-free de-sign makes it dry-run, self-priming and low-slip capable, and eliminates any potential leak or contamination points, while simultaneously providing superi-or suction lift. Peristaltic pumps are easy to operate and easy to maintain, and re-versible operation allows for pumping in both directions.

In order to successfully handle the challenges of water and wastewater handling and treatment, the peristaltic pump’s hose needs to achieve the high-est level of material compatibility. At

the same time, it must reliably deliver the millions of pumping cycles that are required during its lifetime.

When selecting a hose material, it is important to consider the fatigue resis-tance of the hose. A material that is sus-ceptible to developing cracks and holes relatively early in its operational life, is not as desirable as a material that can

reliably handle the demands of repeated contraction and relaxation of the hose, especially when particulate-laden liq-uids are being pumped. The reinforced construction of the peristaltic hose and use of rubber compositions that have been specially designed for the stresses within it, provide optimal performance and a long life cycle.

While all peristaltic pumps can be a reliable component in the optimization of water and wastewater operations, Ab-aque® Series Peristaltic Pumps from Do-

ver Corporation’s Pump Solutions Group (PSG®) are a good choice for lime dosing applications. PSG was formed in 2008 and has grown to become a global corpo-ration with facilities in the United States, France, Germany, India and China.

Abaque Series pumps feature a seal-free design that eliminates leaks and product contamination, enabling them

to handle the toughest water/wastewater pumping applica-tions, from abrasive and aggres-

viscous materials. The pumps, which can run in either forward or reverse, are self-priming and offer suction-lift capabilities to

nine metres, as well as the ability to run dry continuously without adversely af-fecting the pump’s performance. Ductile iron and steel construction lets the pump produce discharge pressures as high as 16 bar (232 psi).

The Abaque pump’s hoses are avail-able in: natural rubber, which has excel-lent abrasion resistance and strength; EPDM which has high chemical resis-tance, especially when handling concen-trated acids, and alcohols; and, Buna®-N

which is highly wear resistant to natural gas containing products.

Abaque pumps can handle products with water-like viscosities to those as high as 70,000 cSt, solid particle sizes from 1.5 mm to 18 mm and soft particle sizes from 1.5 mm to 31 mm. All pumps can handle product temperatures rang-ing from 0ºC to 70ºC, with models fea-

turing an EPDM hose capable of han-dling maximum temperatures to 80ºC.

ConclusionThe diversity of water and waste-

water operations means that pumps must be versatile enough to cope with

viscosity, temperature, corrosiveness, toxicity, abrasiveness and particulate

levels. These characteristics must also be successfully handled while adhering to strict production quotas and environ-mental requirements.

Water Distribution

Municipalities are finding their older underground control valve and meter chambers are routinely

flooded. This degrades the concrete and reduces the useful life of these structures. Servicing the equipment in these stations becomes difficult and even dangerous. Furthermore, it often fails prematurely because of the high humidity.

Replacement chambers are made using either pour-in-place or pre-cast concrete structures. In either case, water leakage may still occur and the cycle of deterioration will begin again. Concrete is porous and it contains inclusions; cracks can occur in handling and as the ground settles. Mastic coatings and wa-ter-stops at pipe-ways into and out of the station may not resist hydrostatic pres-sure and leaks may occur.

Flooded chambers represent a hidden cost of servicing. Workers must spend time and effort to pump them out before entering and when they do, they may find a very unfriendly environment. Piping and valves corrode and become slimy to the touch. Undesirable life-forms con-sider these chambers their home. The dark, damp and slippery conditions are often the cause of worker complaints and injuries. Additionally, without proper ventilation, noxious gases can collect, creating additional safety concerns.

Finding that several of their chambers were in poor condition, the City of Barrie, Ontario decided to look for alternative solutions. Engineered Fluid Inc. (EFI) produces pre-fabricated, water-tight steel chambers for the municipal water distri-bution market. Approximately 12,000 of these have been installed throughout North America. These factory-built, in-stallation-ready equipment chambers offer many advantages:

Leak-proof: Steel is non-porous. The seal welded, steel-walled chambers are constructed so that there are no op-portunities for water or gases to enter. All ports into the chamber are welded joints, made physically strong enough to remain in position and “leak-free”

regardless of groundwater, or ground shifts that occur over time.

EFI chambers provide a user-friendly environment for workers to enter with-out fear of having to deal with flooding or “surprise guests”. They are formed, coated and provided with cathodic pro-tection to resist corrosion. Special coat-ings systems can be used where “hot” soil conditions are apparent.

Controlled climate: When electric-ity is available for these chambers, they typically include a heater, ventilation fan, de-humidifier and sump pump. The heater and de-humidifier are self-regu-lating units that turn on/off as required. Together the heater and de-humidifier maintain a warm, dry environment that minimizes humidity, is suitable for elec-tronic equipment, and will extend the working life of all chamber components significantly. Along with the ventilation fan, return air and fan discharge ports are designed to ensure that fresh air is circulated through the chamber when the hatch is open.

Custom-design: The City of Barrie worked with EFI to design the layout and contents of their chambers. The City

selected the product types and manufac-turers they preferred. An iterative design process was used, whereby the cham-ber manufacturer supplied a proposed, to-scale layout drawing which the City reviewed and provided feedback on. This led to a revised layout drawing and further feedback, until a final design was reached.

Spacious environment: These chambers are designed for operators to safely work on the internal equipment, by leaving proper room around piping components and electrical equipment. The chamber lighting also instills a feeling of spaciousness because the cap-sule’s smooth metal walls reflect light, making the entire chamber brighter and more user-friendly.

Reduced installation time: Pre-fab-ricated stations significantly shorten the time required for site work, thereby min-imizing road disruption and “open-hole” safety concerns. The finished cham-ber is delivered fully assembled and pressure tested. Site logistics are only needed for scheduling delivery of the sta-tion, excavating the hole, pouring a small concrete pad at the bottom of the hole (to

Water Distributionact as ballast), placing the chamber on the pad, securing it to the pad, connecting the water main to the station’s inlet/outlet piping and then burying it.

Conduit ports for electrical power, I/O and telemetry are pre-arranged and all electrical connections are greatly sim-plified because the interior of the cham-ber is delivered pre-wired.

Quality: Within the factory controlled environment, precise computer-con-trolled cutting and welding equipment are used to build each station. Factory personnel, who may build 500 stations each year, bring this depth of experience to station fabrication and component as-sembly. An independent Quality Assur-ance department checks to ensure work is performed to industry standards. Each station is fully assembled, pressure tested and functionally tested.

Capsule longevity: When designed, constructed, coated and properly pro-tected, steel-walled chambers should last as long as, or longer, than concrete valve chambers. Design and quality standards are important. Chambers must be made such that their top and bottom plates are joined using a cold-formed, rolled edge,

double welded, lap seamed weld joint. The lap joint, including continuously full fillet welds on the interior and exte-rior of the chamber, minimizes corrosion potential and maximizes epoxy coating effectiveness.

A proper epoxy coating process en-sures that all interior and exterior sur-faces receive an adequate thickness of coating. The chamber’s sidewalls are then covered with a flame-retardant in-

sulating material, which is then sprayed with a UV retardant hardening coating. Depending on soil conditions at the site and the size of the station, one or more sacrificial anodes will be supplied. A test box can be supplied, to determine when an anode should be replaced (ty-pically five to ten years).

Maintenance requirements: Steel chambers do require some maintenance.

Finished chambers are delivered fully assembled and pressure tested.

TOGETHER, MEETING THE CHALLENGES OF CLEAN WATER




Anodes need to monitored and changed periodically. Depending on frequency of entry into the station, the floor should be swept periodically. It should be re-coated every five to seven years. This recoating will require a worker with a breather pack to solvent wipe the was-hed and dried floor and to apply a coat of the two-part epoxy coating.

Warranty: The chamber manufac-turer is solely responsible for the en-tire station, including delivery to site, start-up, commissioning, training, war-ranty documentation and any and all operational issues. Despite the fact that there are many components from many different manufacturers, the station manufacturer takes on the full warranty responsibility.

Data collection: A key tool for managing distributed fluid systems is pressure and flow data collected from a variety of locations. Control valve chambers are ideal for collecting this data, since they are often located at zone boundaries. This allows the logging of pressure from two zones, at one loca-tion. The environment provided by steel

chambers makes the collection of this data easier and more cost-effective.

Confined space issues: Ontario Regulation 632/05 defines a confined space as a fully or partially enclosed space, that is not designed nor construc-ted for continuous human occupancy, and in which atmospheric hazards may occur because of its construction, loca-tion or contents, or because of work that is done in it.

Discussions are being held with the Ministry of Labour to determine whether these steel-walled chambers are not confined spaces. The stations are de-signed with worker safety and building codes in mind. Harmful fumes cannot enter through the walls of the chamber. As long as electrical power is available, these chambers provide lighting and ventilation, whenever someone is inside. Ventilation is sized to “turn the air over” a minimum of 10 times per hour.

Based on the regulation’s definition, it is felt that these chambers should not be considered a confined space. An air monitor should be used when person-nel are inside, but no confined space

recovery equipment, or a rescue plan, should be required.

In May 2013, an EFI pre-fabricated pressure reducing chamber was ins-talled in a residential area of Barrie. It consisted of a 150 mm fire flow and a 50 mm regular-daily-flow pressure reducing valve, 150 mm and 50 mm insertion flow meters, upstream and downstream pressure transmitters and a cellular-based telemetry system. Ins-tallation of the chamber began shortly after it was delivered to the site and the chamber was in place and buried within a few days.

The City has ordered three more pres-sure reducing valve chambers, which were due to be delivered in early De-cember 2013. It has budgeted for addi-tional pre-fabricated chambers in 2014.

Other Ontario municipalities have recently ordered four water-tight valve chambers, with more at various stages of project designs that call for similar ones.

Biological systems, such as sewage lagoons and wetlands, are at the mercy of the natural environment and, there-fore, inherently variable regardless of latitude. If excessive cold temperatures are thrown into the mix, then biological systems are not reliable enough to con-sistently meet a prescribed low target, such as the CWS guidelines. The 2008 sampling study of Far North communi-ties clearly demonstrated this, with over 60 per cent of the samples not meeting

CWS standards for TSS and CBOD. The logistical challenges of moving

“stuff” around the North are intuitive for anyone who has done work there. The dif-

challenge the validity of using the CWS standards in the North. Including the re-ality that only 50 per cent of the sampling points are accessible and the argument against applying the current CWS frame-work in the Far North is strengthened.

Water Supply

The Regional Municipality of York is a two-tiered confed-eration of nine local munici-palities that has more than 30

steel water-storage structures providing critical storage requirements for these communities. Over the last three years, it has installed more than 10 passive mixing systems in these systems to im-prove water quality by decreasing water age and stagnant zones.

Operational concerns Maintaining acceptable water quali-

ty in potable water storage facilities is an important challenge faced by public utilities. Low turnover rates, poor mix-ing and short-circuiting, cause stagnant

-tion and ice formation. All of these con-tribute to quality problems, including: loss of residual disinfectant; disinfec-

in chlorinated systems; bacterial re-

taste and odour problemsProper mixing in water storage facil-

ities can eliminate and/or mitigate these problems. By providing suitable mixing of the tank, a homogeneous water mass can be maintained with equal concen-trations of residual disinfectant and any unwanted elements. This helps to en-sure that the samples taken, often at a single location, are representative of all of the water in the tank and allow for early detection of any problems.

To address these concerns and main-tain high quality water, the Region conducted an investigation of methods to encourage tank mixing, reduce strat-

quality within the storage vessel as well as the distribution system.

The passive system scored the high-est on performance, maintainability and operability. It is able to deliver the desired mixing with zero maintenance and operational requirements outside

of the reservoir. It was chosen as the ul-timate solution.

Four pilot test sites were selected for the installation of the passive mix-ing systems: Ridge Road in Aurora, and Newmarket’s Magna Tower, London Road Tower and Bathurst Tank. Based on the evaluation of the pilot test sites, the Region added mixing systems to seven additional sites.

Dropping chlorine residualIt was suspected that the mixing sys-

tems installed in the storage tanks were

not functioning as intended. Chlorine residual levels measured at the storage facilities were showing a rapid drop during drain cycles, which created con-cerns with respect to the water quality within the distribution system.

At the Magna and London Road one-pipe tower systems, chlorine levels measured using existing analyzers were still showing a rapid drop during the

Utilizing the tanks’ data, a model was developed to estimate the concen-tration of the chlorine residual in the elevated tanks.

The values for the estimated chlo-rine concentration at the start of the drain cycle closely correspond to chlo-rine levels shown on the tank graphs (real data) and actual tank data.

Results of analysis Upon an initial review of the data, it

was observed that the chlorine concen-tration was dropping drastically at the start of the drain cycle. This initially suggested that there might be a problem

with the mixing systems leaving un-mixed aged water at the bottom of the tank. After a review of the layout of the elevated tanks, it was determined that the location of the sample point for the

The Region added a second sam-ple point for the analyzers directly at

the water storage tank. This allowed the analyzers to directly compare the

in the water storage tank. The Region completed this change and the chlorine concentrations measured were in line with those shown in the model, without the drastic swings in measured chlorine residuals.

From an analysis of longer term data than that used in the creation of the model, it was determined that water age played a major role in the deterioration of chlorine residuals for the Magna and London Road elevated tanks. The Re-gion is studying the water demands of the pressure district systems of the two elevated tanks, to determine whether it is possible to increase tank turnover and reduce water age, by reducing storage capacity during lower demand periods.

The addition of mixing systems has allowed the Region to produce a consis-tent residual leaving the storage facili-ties. Previously, it had to drain the tow-ers due to water quality. This is now no longer the case. The Region has added the mixing systems as its standard for

older tanks as the opportunity arises.

Stormwater Management

Established in 2010 through the adoption of the Keswick Neighbourhood Structure Plan (NSP), Keswick on the River

is a new community in southwest Ed-monton, Alberta. It is bounded by the North Saskatchewan River to the west and the Windemere Golf and Country club to the north. The 200-acre neigh-bourhood is named for a town in north-west England and features more than 1,500 homes that offer old world English architecture, designed to look and feel like a country village.

As with much of Edmonton’s storm-water system, the Keswick development required a system to drain surface water

-nected ponds surrounded by parkland will collect and clean rain water and re-turn it to the river through an innovative outfall system. While the wetlands were designed to recreate the natural system of a river valley, they are also functional.

-tion, the system conveys the stormwater through an underground trenchless sys-tem along the southern edge of the golf course and into the North Saskatchewan River. This required more than 500 me-tres of horizontal directional drilling (HDD) that dropped 32 metres to the river bank, and a pipe large enough and reliable enough to handle the volume. Flexibility was also required to accommodate a com-pound bend during the pull.

Delivering a larger, better alternativeTo handle maximum stormwater

Keswick had to be 750 millimetres (30 inches) in diameter. Many municipal-ities have historically used tradition-al HDPE (high-density polyethylene) pipe in these trenchless applications, but PVC (polyvinyl chloride) was cho-sen by the City of Edmonton for its pull force and other advantages.

PVC has grown steadily in popular-ity as the material of choice for storm-water systems throughout North Amer-ica. CIOD (cast-iron outside diameter) Fusible Brute TM PVC pipe from IPEX

enables fully restrained joints with a tensile strength equal to that of the pipe.

By combining the mechanical proper-ties of PVC with an innovative patented butt fusion process, Fusible PVC pipe is capable of being installed in long contin-uous trenchless applications like the Kes-wick stormwater outfall system. PVC’s reduced wall thickness also requires less

“Because this system was going into the river, we needed an environmental-ly-friendly option. The pipe had to be corrosion resistant to avoid causing any contamination of the water,” explains Jordan Rice, project manager for Ray-walt Construction Co. Ltd., the general contractor for the project.

During the preliminary design stag-es of the project, Raywalt Construction met with IPEX to analyze options and determine if it was possible for the Fus-ible Brute pipe to be manufactured in a 750 mm diameter.

The use of Fusible PVC allowed for easy connections via simple standard

the entire system. The CIOD Fusible PVC pipe will also be easier to main-

tain over the life of the system because all the accessories are readily available, and its gasket-free joints and abrasion and scratch-resistant properties ensure long-term reliability.

Solving a challenging, unique installation

Fusible Brute PVC pipe is available in 12.2-metre lengths. To create longer pipe lengths for the installation, the pat-ent-pending fusion process incorporat-ed a proprietary PVC formulation and a unique combination of heat, pressure

Stormwater Managementmaintained at a temperature above 4°C and that both the pipe ends and fusion machinery are sheltered from the ele-ments. Temperature was not a concern for the Keswick project, which began in the warmer weather of June 2013.

“I ended up fusing about 40 joints

joints a day. The warmer weather meant more cooling time for the joints, but it was a lot easier than needing to bring in shelter and heat,” said Roger Zwaan, the fusion technician with Clean Harbors Direction Boring. “Because the direc-tional boring process was taking place later, I did about 300 metres in June and

-maining joints about a week before the pull date in September.”

The vertical drop, river bank, soil and larger pipe diameter proved to be a challenge for Clean Harbors Directional Boring. “We had to bring out our big-gest drill and consolidate crews to make sure we had enough people to operate the equipment”, said Matt Porter, op-erations manager with Clean Harbors. “The higher pull strength of the Fusible

Brute pipe certainly came in handy. We were able to fully use our equipment’s pulling ability, without the risk of pull-ing apart joints or damaging the pipe.”

Unlike typical HDD installations that form an arc underground from surface to surface, the vertical drop to the river bank also required a unique approach. “We had to build a berm on

our equipment and then drill upwards towards the surface,” said Porter. “This

presented the challenge of the drilling -

ery and building up.” The new stormwater system at Kes-

Fracking

As hydraulic fracturing wells increase in number, so does the stress on surface and ground water supplies.

Large volumes of water are consumed in the fracking process, with one well needing up to one million gallons (al-most 24,000 barrels) of fresh water for the fracking process alone.

Equally important is the increasing volume of wastewater generated from fracking wells, which requires disposal or recycling. Up to 60 per cent of the water injected into a wellhead (poten-tially 600,000 gallons) during the frack-ing process will discharge back out of

wastewater. Thereafter, and for the life of the wellhead, it will discharge up to 100,000 gallons per day of produced wastewater.

biggest component in hydraulic frac-turing, it is a critical factor in the op-eration and economics of shale oil and

growing water management challeng-es are impacting hydraulic fracturing. Fresh water and wastewater operating procedures drafted in the late 1990s are facing increasingly stiffer governmen-tal regulations on water availability and disposal limitations.

One solution which integrates all as-pects of fresh water and wastewater man-agement and optimizes the utilization of water resources is a centralized approach to the treatment and reuse of wastewater. Centralization provides treatment and reuse of wastewater from a large num-ber of wellheads both in the initial frack and throughout the well’s lifecycle. Fur-thermore, a centralized system can more easily access and utilize alternative wa-ter sources, such as municipal wastewa-ter facilities, which would otherwise be inaccessible.

Wellheads producing shale oil and gas are long-term processes, typically exceeding 20 years. However, conven-tional solutions for handling fresh wa-

ter resources and wastewater are geared towards the short-term. Impounding wastewater for evaporation in surface ponds, trucking water over long dis-tances to deep-well injection sites, and

at the wellhead, are all short-term op-tions which do not address critical long-term issues.

The centralized wastewater manage-ment concept is gaining momentum. In North America, more than a dozen cen-tralized wastewater treatment facilities servicing shale oil and gas drilling are now operational or in development.

Wellhead wastewater treatmentWastewater from shale oil and gas

extraction can contain high levels of to--

ditives, total suspended solids, hardness compounds, metals, oil and gas, bacte-ria and bacteria disinfection agents, and naturally occurring radioactive materi-als. These contaminants are partially a combination of chemicals and agents

inserted deep into the well (9,000 feet and deeper) which facilitate fracking by modifying the water chemistry to increase viscosity, carry more sand and improve conductivity.

Essentially, the fracking process pushes water down into the rock for-mation, trying to wedge the rock

propped open. Once the fracking is done, much of the water comes back up

Some drilling operators elect to re-use a portion of the wastewater to re-place and/or supplement fresh water in

shale oil and gas wastewater is, in part, dependent on the levels of pollutants in the wastewater and the proximity of other fracturing sites that might reuse the wastewater. This practice has the potential to reduce discharges to surface ponds, minimize underground injection of wastewater and conserve and reuse water resources.

Centralized treatment of fracking wastewaters becoming a viable solution By Jeff Easton

Centralized wastewater treatment facilities handle both the flowback waste-water and produced wastewater from oil and gas hydraulic fracturing wells within a region, at a radius of 40 to 50 miles. Pipelines connect all wellheads directly with the central treatment plant.

Plant Operation

A Motor Control Center (MCC) is major power dis-tribution equipment regu-larly found in any water/

wastewater treatment plant or, in gen-eral, any facility that requires electrical power. MCCs are enclosed assemblies, divided into sections with a common power bus. As the name suggests, they consist of motor control circuits, motor starters, feeder breakers and panel boards. In Canada, low voltage MCCs are generally rated for 600V, 60Hz, 3phase, 3 or 4wire systems.

Just like every other piece of elec-trical equipment, MCCs have a certain design life, after which they either need to be refurbished, or be completely re-placed with a new one. Replacement can become quite a complicated pro-cess, especially if the equipment pow-ered by the MCC cannot be shut down for an extended period of time, due to process constraints.

For example, a booster pump feeding an old, underground water supply pipe, cannot be shut down for an extended period of time because small cracks in the old pipe could cause groundwater to infiltrate.

Another common challenge is the unavailability of accurate MCC as-built wiring diagrams. MCCs can undergo numerous upgrades and modifications over time, for which the record data may not be available.

The following is a step-by-step guide to a typical replacement process which, for this example, assumes that the new MCC will be installed at the existing MCC’s location.Step 1 – Reconstruction of wiring dia-gram based on field verification:

This step is only required, if the up-dated “as-built” drawings are not avail-able. It can be easily done by hiring a licensed electrician, who can trace down the wiring for each individual load, with the help of plant operation staff. Step 2 – Designing the replacement Motor Control Center:

This step involves the electrical en-gineer designing the MCC replacement.

It will also require input from the client regarding any specific MCC make or model that is standardized or preferred. It is highly recommended that digital power meters be installed, as they can provide valuable data on consump-tion. Measuring and monitoring energy consumption is an important factor for sustainable infrastructure design and development, highlighted in rating sys-tems such as LEED® and Envision™.

The design engineer can also incor-porate additional control and commu-nication features for remote control or alarms display. This can be done by either providing the hardwired dry con-tacts wiring to the plant SCADA system, or by using communication protocols such as DeviceNet or Profibus, etc.Step 3 – Determination of critical loads:

This step requires substantial coor-dination and input from the operation

staff. MCCs typically handle different types of loads, some of which can be shut down for extended periods. Oth-ers may only be switched off for a very limited time period. For example, in a wastewater treatment plant, it may not be as critical to power off the space heaters, but the raw sewage pumps may not be kept off for long.

As a result of this step, a critical load table is created, identifying all crit-ical loads and the maximum allowable downtime for each (See Figure 1). The larger the critical load list grows, the more complicated the MCC replace-ment process becomes.Step 4 – Designing temporary power distribution scheme:

The next step is to design the tem-porary power supply for critical loads. Based on the location of the MCC and the critical loads, temporary feeders and

starters can be installed at a suitable location. Also, depending on the instal-lation configuration, either the exist-ing cables can be used with temporary starters, or new temporary cables are in-

stalled for quick change over purposes. Typical arrangements of temporary

feeders and starters with temporary ca-bles are shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3. The main feeder to the MCC is split to power the temporary arrangement for critical load.Step 5 – Staging the shutdowns and transfer of critical loads on tempo-rary starters and feeders:

This step is generally carried out once the new MCC has been manufactured,

delivered to the site and passed site in-spection. Critical loads are shifted to the temporary starters one by one. This can be done in a single shut down, or multiple ones, depending on the maximum allow-able shut down time for each critical load. Step 6 – Replacement of the MCC:

Once all the critical loads are suc-cessfully transferred to the temporary arrangement, the existing MCC is de-commissioned. The new MCC is in-stalled and all non-critical loads are connected to it and tested for proper functioning. Step 7 – Staging the shutdowns and retransfer of loads on the MCC:

Finally, the critical loads are trans-ferred back to the new MCC. Again, this can be done in a single or multiple steps, depending on the allowable shut down for each critical load.

This list of steps is not all inclusive and other factors need to be considered, based on different site conditions and new code requirements.

Instrumentation

Lying within the frozen soil and ice of the Arctic are enormous quantities of greenhouse gas-es (GHG). As melting perma-

frost could cause a dangerous climate tipping point, a clear understanding of the relationship between GHG in the atmosphere and in the ice/soil is vital.

There can be few more challenging environments than the High Arctic for monitoring gases, but PhD researcher Martin Brummell and professors Ste-ven Siciliano and Rich Farrell from the University of Saskatchewan have con-ducted a successful research expedition.

-ber of requirements for analytical equip-ment. However, the extreme weather conditions of the High Arctic demand a level of capability that is rarely avail-able as standard. Field work in such

fast, but most importantly, according to Martin Brummell, “the equipment must also be extremely reliable because you do not have the luxury of a local engi-neer/supplier”.

To work in the Canadian Arctic, the team used a Gasmet DX4015 FTIR an-alyzer. Brummell says that, “it was also the ideal choice because, as an FTIR analyzer, it is able to monitor almost any gas. This is normally a feature of mains powered laboratory instruments, but the DX4015 is portable and pow-ered by a small generator, so it is ideal for monitoring in remote locations.”

Sampling and analysis in the Arctic

The research was carried out on

of Nunavut. The analyzer was used to monitor the production, consumption and atmospheric exchange of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. All three of these greenhouse gases are ma-jor components of natural biogeochem-ical cycles. They are each released and up-taken by soil microbes in the Arctic.

A set of simple, perforated steel tubes was driven into the soil, to the point of the permafrost threshold. In-

side these tubes, gases within the soil were allowed to reach equilibrium via diffusion over 24 hours. This allowed the researchers to analyze gas concen-trations to a depth of 0.5 metre. The procedure was simple and, therefore,

reliably repeatable. Furthermore, mea-surement of gas concentrations at dif-ferent depths enabled direct comparison with soil analyses.

The Gasmet DX4015 is a portable FTIR gas analyzer for ambient air anal-ysis. FTIR, an abbreviation for Fouri-er-transform infrared, is an interfero-metric spectroscopic instrument (inter-ferometer) that uses the infrared com-

ponent of the electromagnetic spectrum for measurements. A Fourier-transform function is applied by the interferome-ter to obtain the absorption spectrum as a function of frequency or wavelength. Consequently, the DX4015 is able to si-multaneously analyze up to 50 gas com-pounds. The analyzer is typically set up to measure a variety of different gases, including VOCs, acids, aldehydes, and inorganic compounds such as CO (car-bon monoxide), CO2 (carbon dioxide), and N2O (nitrous oxide).

The DX4015 is operated using a lap-top computer running Calcmet™ soft-ware, a program that not only controls the analyzer but also undertakes the analysis. It is capable of simultaneous

-tion of ambient gases, which gives the DX4015 its ability to simultaneously analyze multiple gases in near real-time.

On Ellesmere Island, the analyzer

active layer above the permafrost. In doing so the FTIR provided raw data consisting of gas concentrations in

Comparisons between the surface flux and the

How do we go about changing the way our youth are taught when it comes to water, a life-force so vital to our ex-

a huge success that the team committed to, and successfully pulled off the sec-ond Children’s Groundwater Festival in Milton in 1995.

A watershed momentAfter two successful festivals and see-

ing the potential for this type of water ed-ucation beyond the classroom take place in communities elsewhere, we faced a watershed moment. How could this vol-unteer-led educational initiative not only survive, but become a mainstream meth-od of education for a new generation of water savvy kids across the province?

After much debate, the original steering committee decided to approach new potential partners in their home communities, along with support from some of the initial team members. Thus, the concept of children’s groundwater, or water festivals expanded to commu-nities in Waterloo, York, Durham and Peel Regions.

Thanks to continued support from all the partners, these festivals are heading into their 21st consecutive year in more than 27 communities across Ontario.

They have reached more than 500,000 elementary students, and each festival is constantly evolving and growing to meet the ever-changing educational needs and expectations.

The success of the children’s water festivals across the province has been based on numerous factors, including:• Each festival is designed to be fun

and interactive. If students learn in a fun setting, the message will have a lasting effect.

• People are becoming more concerned about the environment, especially water. They want to be more aware about water conservation and protec-tion for future use, as these concepts can be discussed and managed right in the home.

• Teachers appreciate the opportunity to have experts educate their students about water in a fun setting, with teaching at all activity centres linked to the Ontario curriculum.

• The festival takes a hands-on ap-proach from which all benefit.

After 20 years, there have been stu-

dents who have attended a water festi-val as an elementary student, come back and volunteer to instruct at an activity centre as a high school or university stu-dent. Then they graduate from universi-ty to work in the water/environmental /engineering eld and come back and sit as a member of a local festival steering committee! Now that’s full circle – just like water makes its way through the water cycle!

More water education beyond the classroom

As the children’s water festival mod-el continued to expand across Ontario, the need also developed for the sharing of ideas and resources for other educa-tional opportunities.

In 2001, the not-for-pro t organi-zation, the Children’s Water Educa-tion Council (CWEC) was formed as a group of education and water profes-sionals. Its mandate was to respect our water sources, and preserve it for future generations through greater awareness of, and appreciation for, this vital life force. The organization, which received

resources and understanding more about the science of water, participants also in-teract with their peers in university and young professionals in the water indus-try. Mentoring opportunities are provid-ed, allowing them to gather information about various career options.

World Water Day celebrationCWEC celebrates World Water Day

on March 22 with Soup Fest – Just Add Water, an annual event that brings to-gether supporters of the water commu-nity to share a cup of soup. World Water Day is an international observance ini-tiative that grew out of the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro.

This networking event allows attend-ees to sample soup, enjoy a buffet of breads and desserts, and cast a ballot for their favourite soup. The winner takes home the coveted Soup Fest trophy.

Water careers presentationIn 2012, CWEC developed a pro-

gram to provide an in-class presentation to high school students about potential water careers. Through nu-merous demonstrations, students learn about the importance of water science and understand the source of the water that is delivered to their tap. The concept is re-inforced with a hands-on demonstration of an edible aquifer using ice cream, syrup, pop and nuts to replicate what lies beneath their feet.

An overview of the water indus-try provides the resources for students to make an informed decision when choosing their career path.

SummaryWe have all heard that it takes a

village to raise a child; well, it takes a

changed and engaged society to manage and protect our most pre-cious resource, water. Wars are fought over it, people die without enough of it and yet in some places it is con-taminated, overused and wasted.

Hopefully, some of the more than 500,000 and growing students, who have been exposed to a water education ini-tiative beyond the class-

room, will continue to contribute sig-ni cantly to the changed society that is required to ensure that future generations will be blessed with the water supply that the students have grown up with.

WERF researching cooperative management of

water from all sourcesThe Water Environment Research

Foundation is researching the institu-tional issues and governance structures impacting established water, wastewater and stormwater management agencies. “Institutional Issues for Green-Gray In-frastructure Based on Integrated ‘One Water’ Management and Resource Re-covery,” aims to understand what insti-tutional challenges have faced organi a-tions engaged in the ne Water approach, and more importantly what strategies and actions were adopted to overcome them.

One Water is the concept that water from all sources must be managed cooper-atively to meet economic, social, and en-vironmental needs. WERF is seeking to: • Understand the current state of insti-

tutional barriers or opportunities for more integrated planning and manage-ment of water services.

• Illustrate the institutional issues iden-

tified, furthering discussion about how barriers may have been overcome.

• Capture key institutional challenges and associated solutions confronting the development of a ne Water ap-proach in a useful framework.

• rgani e a series of workshops to en-gage international experts on this topic.WERF Program Director Theresa

Connor said that water management governance systems and institutions de-veloped over the past century, may now be barriers to effectively meeting current and future challenges.

“Since institutions are dif cult to change, it is critical to look at how commu-nities are overcoming these barriers, so that we can learn from each other and nd ways to collectively manage our water resources for the needs of our communities, our econ-omy and our environment,” said Connor.

The contract for this research was awarded to the Institute for Sustainable Futures at University of Technology in Sydney. WERF is collaborating with the Water Research Foundation and Water Research Australia in this effort.

More and more water and sewage treatment plants are operating at reduced staff levels. What happens to a lone worker should they get into trouble? Who will respond and how will they know to respond? The ability to rapidly react to an employees call for help, whether activated manually or automatically, can mean the difference between life or death.

The G.E.M. monitors from 1 to 16 workers. The worker wears a small transmitter which incorporates a solid state motion detector. Should the worker be rendered unconscious, the motion detector activates local audio and visual alarms. The alarm is transmitted to a local receiver that provides a verbal alarm that can be sent out over telephone or radio. A relay contact Is also available at the receiver for additional alarms. Should the worker be hurt, but not rendered unconscious, a panic button on the transmitter can be activated to manually transmit an alarm. An 8 second pre-alert warns the worker before the actual alarm is activated.

Each pocket sized transmitter runs from a 9 Vdc battery and the receiver operates from 115 Vac and has an internal battery back-up in the event of a power failure. The transmitted signal is good for 3/4 mile line of sight.

ES&E NEWSWater utilities implement

biological filtration treatment processes

The Water Research Foundation is helping water utilities improve their understanding of monitoring and con-trolling iological ltration through a recently completed monitoring and con-trol guidance manual.

iological ltration F is an afford-a le effective ut not commonly used water treatment process that reduces multiple contaminants and increases the biological stability in distribution sys-tems while minimizing the production of waste streams and the formation of disin-fection by-products.

istorically drin ing water utilities in North America have underutilized BF because of the perception that it is most suitable for wastewater treatment. Utilities interested in utilizing BF do so without the support of industry-accept-ed BF design operations and treatment guidelines and with limited monitoring and control tools.

Water Research Foundation’s research project “A Monitoring and Control Tool-box for Biological Filtration provides a BF monitoring and controlling toolbox that contains practical innovative and standard monitoring tools for utilities loo ing to boost their technological un-derstanding and application of BF.

The guidance manual describes pros and cons of tools how they are applied typical measurement ranges recom-mended monitoring fre uencies and re-lated costs.

“Biological ltration can play a ey role in helping water utilities meet the in-creasing demand for high- uality water explained Rob Renner xecutive irec-tor of WRF. “While BF has been in use for decades its adoption in North Amer-ica has been fairly limited. This research project provides a comprehensive collec-tion of information and tools to help the water community understand and apply related best practices.

As part of this study BF practices at 21 utilities in the U.S. and Canada were evaluated resulting in the development of benchmar s for design operations and monitoring as well as the identi ca-tion of optimal control methods.

New report studies changes in water use

A new study by the Water Research Foundation examines the potential im-pact of climate change on water demand and what it might mean to water utilities.

“Changes in water use under region-al climate change scenarios studied an-ticipated water demand and use patterns under a range of climate change scenari-os. t is categorized by speci c customer class and industry sector so water util-ities may better plan for and respond to changing water use patterns as a result of climate change.

The study resulted in several principal conclusions spanning several topics that are important to evaluating the potential effects of climate change on water de-mand. These include: • Weather sensitive demands are

prevalent and will be affected by cli-mate change. Weather-sensitive water demands exist in virtually all places in the country. They account for a sub-stantial portion of total municipal water demands in most regions and a major-ity of total demand in some areas and times of the year.

• Evaluation of weather and climate impacts involves a host of technical modeling requirements, choices, and tradeoffs. With regard to water use modeling an over-riding con-clusion is that only certain types of models specifically those that con-tain and relate weather and climate indicators to water use are relevant for evaluating the potential effects of climate change.

• Derivation and processing of climate model projections is a data intensive process.

• Climate projections and esti-mated demand impacts vary geo-graphically.

• A range of options could assist in adapting to demand impacts. Accord-ing to Rob Renner xecutive irector of WRF impacts of these changes on water demand will vary because of different geographical sensitivities of demand to climate and weather. The impacts on demand could be relatively large for some locations and relatively moderate or even minor for others.
