NewsThe Monclova Experience
The Town of Monclova, Mexico found it necessary to increase the hydraulic capacity of its municipal wastewater treatment plant by 35% - from approximately 11.5 MGD to 15.5 MGD. The increase in flow was accomplished by upgrading the plant’s biological treatment process. Once the modifications were completed, the flow through the plant was gradually increased. As the increased flow reached the plant’s three 112-foot diameter clarifiers, the total suspended solids in the effluent of each clarifier increased as well. It soon became apparent that increasing the flow much beyond the pre-modification level threatened to drive clarifier effluent TSS to an unacceptable 10ppm, where 5ppm was the desired limit.
NEFCO's CFD Study
NEFCO recently completed an extensive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study of baffle design and performance that resulted in the development of two advanced baffle systems that represent the first improvement in baffle performance in nearly thirty years:
