Flow from the collection system enters the plant by gravity and flow through the following unit processes: • Manually cleaned bar screen • Two (2), 654,000 gallon aeration basins with 2 ea 15 horsepower floating aerators per basin • One (1), 50' diameter secondary clarifier • One (1), chlorine contact chamber with provisions for chlorination and dechlorination Supporting processes include: • Dual chlorine gas, flow proportional chlorinators with one unit serving as a redundant unit • Dual sulfur dioxide gas, flow proportional dechlorinators with one unit serving as redundant unit • Sludge holding tank • Sand drying beds • Return activated sludge pumps, 2 with one unit as a redundant unit • Laboratory/office building Proposed WWTP Upgrade: The Town of Biscoe has recently received a Clean Water Management Trust Fund grant to assist with a proposed WWTP upgrade. Design and associated permitting for construction are now in progress with an anticipated construction completion in 2014. The proposed upgrade is not in response to regulatory actions and no change in the permitted flow is being requested. The proposed upgrade is to provide the following plant improvements for improved treatment reliability: • Installation of a new mechanically cleaned bar screen with by-pass manually cleaned screen. • Addition of valves in influent piping to aeration basins to permit flow isolation between basins. • Installation of additional floating aerators in Aeration Basin #1 permitting treatment in one basin with second basin in reserve. • New clarifier flow splitter structure allowing control of aeration basin effluent flow to secondary clarifiers. • New secondary clarifier providing a redundant unit to the existing 40 year old unit. • New RAS/WAS pump station supporting the new secondary clarifier.

Town of Biscoe Sludge Management Plan Activated sludge from the extended aeration activated sludge process is periodically wasted to a 55,200 gallon sludge holding tank for storage by diversion of flow from the plant return activated sludge (RAS) force main utilizing the RAS pumps for wasting. The waste activated sludge (WAS) is periodically transferred to the sand drying beds (4 each @ 800 SF / each or 3200 SF total). When the WAS achieves a sufficient dryness on the drying beds, it is removed by the Town and disposed of in the Montgomery County Sanitary Landfill approximately 2 or 3 times a year.
