PAC dosing problems in SBR
PAC dosing problems in SBR
(OP)
Good day to all,
I haven't posted on here much but when I do I always get a lot of help, hopefully now is one of those times!
While I know all plants are built differently, I was curious if anyone could give me an idea where I should start. We are dosing our SBR's with PAC, and were very much so over dosing. I would like to optimize, and wonder if there is a standard (Say 50-100 ppm) that I could begin at?
Like I said we were pretty high, and while I don't want to make any sudden changes and shock my system, I need to optimize and it needs to happen quickly.
PAC is added after the Equalization tank, before it hits my basins.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I know we're all busy but ... Well I was handed a set of keys and told to operate. So any insite would be wonderful!
Thank you!
Samantha

RE: PAC dosing problems in SBR
If you feel that you have been overdosing PAC, you should experiment by making small changes in the PAC dosage and monitoing the treatment results.

Once you got a baseline figure for your PAC dose, repating this test every now and then helps you to dose the optimum ammount and save money on chemical!
Ideal kit would be to use a jar test rig, but the above works well enough to get you started
