Dewatering sludge, coming from the cellar of the Rijksmuseum with Geotube - Case Study
Foreword: In 1885, the first National Museum of Holland opened its doors in Amsterdam. The architect Cuypers designed the building in a mixture of both Gothic and Renaissance styles. Since the opening, the original building has been extended by the construction of new wings, and changes have been made to Cuypers' original design. An ongoing project to restore the Rijksmuseum started in 2003 and ...

Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant - Moss Creek Plantation, Bluffton, SC (Wastewater Treatment) - Case Study
THE CHALLENGE Moss Creek Plantation is a picture-perfect golf course community of 980 residences in the low country of South Carolina. The Moss Creek Owners Association (MCA) owns and operates Water Oak Utility, which treats about 450,000 gallons per day. The utility also contracts with Beaufort-Jasper County to treat some of their waste stream. James Buckner, Utility Operations Manager, ...

Pulp & Paper Mill’s #1 ASB Lagoon cleanout goes directly into Geotube containers - Case Study
Abstract: Integrated pulp & paper mill with an aerated stabilization basin built in 1969 was so full of solids that the mill was having several problems: degradation of treatment performance, inability to access aerators for maintenance, safety concerns, high energy usage, severe short circuiting. The decision was made that #1 Lagoon must be cleaned out. Evaluation of all types of removal, ...

Wastewater Treatment Plant - Newport, New Hampshire - Case Study
THE CHALLENGE Newport, New Hampshire is a small New England community of 6000 residents. The treatment plant treats primarily residential sewerage, although Newport is home to an internationally known firearms company, which also sends its waste to the municipal plant for treatment. This 1.3 MGD plant which operates at an average of .75 MGD, was built in 1971 and upgraded in 1988 to secondary ...

Pulp & Paper Sludge Dewatering - Stora Enso, Niagara Mill, Wisconsin - Case Study
The Stora Enso, Niagara Mill, was established in 1889. Niagara Mill uses 7,500,000 gallons per day of water from the river to make pulp & paper. The removal of the solids is accomplished by treating it with alum, then a flocculent, allowing the solids to settle out in a 2,000,000 gallon setting tank system. This tank requires yearly cleaning to ensure quality water for the paper making ...

Municipal WWTP Digester Cleanout - Cambridge, Ohio (Wastewater Treatment) - Case Study
THE CHALLENGE Cambridge, OH is a small town of 13,000 residents. Tim Wheatley, Superintendent of the Water Pollution Control Center operates a 3 MGD activated sludge plant at about 80% of its capacity. The plant recently switched from anaerobic digesters to an aerobic digester. They had been dewatering Iheir sludge on four vacuum assisted drying beds housed in a large shed. Alternatively, the ...

Dewatering with Geotextile Bags - South Gippsland, Australia (Water Treatment) - Case Study
A simple, cost effective new method of dewatering sludge is now available in Australia, writes Bill Kelly from CRS Industrial Water Treatment. The use of geotextilcs for containment and dewatering came about as a result of a major flood event in Holland in the 1950s. It prompted Dutch marine engineers to seek new methods and materials to build structures for coastal defences. The ensuing ...

Geotube Containment and Dewatering technology was used to dispose of slurry waste from North River Mine - Case Study
At the North River Mine in Berry, AL, two waste streams are created from the processing plant, coarse rock and fine rock particles. Coming from the processing plant, the fine rock particles are suspended in water forming a slurry. This slurry is normally disposed of via surface impoundments or injected into abandoned underground mine workings. The volume of this waste stream is very significant ...

Geotube Dewatering Technology Helps Manage Wastes From Power Generation - Case Study
Power generation by-products such as fly ash and bottom ash can be a real challenge to remove and manage. But a simple technology allows facilities large and small to easily consolidate these materials—and make adjustments as needed based on volume. It's called Geotube dewatering technology, and it involves pumping sludge through a specially designed fabric container. The water filters ...

Processing Wastewater Sludge Using Dewatering Containers
The relative cost of dewatering equipment varies widely and is directly related to the processing rate. For smaller utilities that need to dewater sludge in batches, dewatering containers are an alternative that can be relatively inexpensive and simple when compared to other technologies on the market. The most common type of dewatering container is based on a roll-off box design, although any ...

Geotube Dewatering Technology Helps Arizona Chemical Dewatering Technology Helps Arizona Chemical Solve “Tight Space” Challenge - Case Study
Arizona Chemical Company, a Division of International Paper, converts terpenes, generated by cooking wood pulp for making paper, into resins used to make adhesrves. The plant's process waste of inorganic compounds (magnesium hydroxide, crude tall oil and fatty acids) is sent to an equalization basin (EQ) for storage and settling. The supematantis discharged into Panama City's wastewater treatment ...
