Wastewater Lagoons, Diminishing Capacity
Advancing Water Treatment With Responsible Innovation™ Case Study: Wastewater Lagoons, Diminishing Capacity INTRODUCTION: A wastewater lagoon system in the state of Arizona was originally designed to treat 800,000 gallons of wastewater per day. After about 10 years in use, the capacity of the lagoon was diminishing and they could only treat about 480,000 gallons per day – a 40% reduction in capacity. The actual influent flow averaged
