• Shortcuts traditional
nitrification and
/denitrification
• Stopping at nitrite
rather than nitrate.
• Uses 25% less
oxygen (theoretical)
• Uses 40% less
carbon (theoretical)

There are more energy and carbon
efficient pathways for nitrogen removal.

• The most energy-efficient and low cost way to remove nitrogen
• Uses 62.5% less oxygen
• Does not require any supplemental carbon
• Utilizes annamoxbacteria
Nitritation and Deammonification is an
even more efficient N removal pathway.

The big picture take away items…
• The “on-site” residuals stabilization and handling requirements are largely governed by the needs of the “off-site” residuals management program.
• Thickening, stabilization, dewatering, and post-dewatering treatment must work together as a system to effectively achieve residuals processing objectives.

Electrical Utility Billing
“How” you are charged for
energy is just as important as
“how much” energy you use.

Electrical utility bills are typically
comprised of several “charges”.
• Energy Usage Charge (kWh)
Energy consumed during the billing period.
Typically “Flat Rate” or “Time of Use”.
• Demand Charge (kW)
Typically 15-30 minute peak power demand during a
billing period
• Fixed Charges
Independent of demand or usage.
Facility charges
Minimum demand/energy charges

“demand” and “energy usage”.

• Demand Management primary objective is to lower energy costs.
• Demand Management strategies can be implement at a low or zero cost.
• Power monitoring and an understanding of the utility billing structure are key components to developing demand management strategies

End user’s ability to shed load is valuable to
electric utilities
Many electric utilities will pay end users for
“capacity”.
Plant owner is compensated by the utility to
have the standby power generators available
in the event of an utility emergency
Generally less than 100 hours/year of
operation

EPA Emission Requirements
• EPA National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
Regulates the Carbon Monoxide emissions for existing non-emergency engines
Regulations not applicable to emergency use application and biogas fueled CHP systems.
• EPA New Source Performance Standards (NSPS)
New non-emergency generators must meet stringent emission limits. Most applications require emissions after treatment for non-emergency applications
• Air Permitting

Combined Heat and Power Generation
Systems - CHP
CHP systems can be used to drive process
equipment
Offset plants purchased power with
mechanical energy
Common applications are process pumping
and aeration
Benefit is
dependent
on the process
demand.

CHP System Benefit Analysis
SVEC – Rate LP10
• 3 day CHP peak period downtime resulted in a 40% loss of the CHP system benefit for the billing period.
• Demand ratchets can extend the loss for up to 12 months! – 80% 12 month ratchet could result in a loss of ~$170,000/year

Energy Optimization – Secondary
Treatment Considerations
• Excessive operating units (too many tanks online)
• DO control (excessively high DO)
• Blower turndown limitations
• Over mixing
• Diffuser fouling
• Inefficient aeration equipment
• Primary clarifier efficiency

Aeration equipment can impact energy
efficiency
• Conversion to fine bubble is not always cost effective.
• Have to make an economic case to change to fine
bubble from surface aerators
• Cost of energy impacts economic case
