Phosphorus Removal without Filtration

Phosphorus Removal without Filtration

(OP)
We have a 1.25 MGD domestic wastewater extended air plant and will need to meet a 1.8 mg/L T-P limit.  Can we meet this by alum addition ahead of the clarifiers without filtration?

Thanks  

RE: Phosphorus Removal without Filtration

You will be able to achieve this if your clarifiers are conservatively sized at 600 gallon per day per square foot for peak hourly flow.
