@Mindful I should add that there’s 2 processes, sludge treatment and removal. And effluent quality and river discharge.. the final effluent has to meet a standard and the chlorine is used in the final clear water..
It would kill the bugs if we dropped chorine in the bioreactor 😁

We use Utra violate lamps at my plant.. the final eff just runs thru a channel of lamps before going into the river

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout haha I can't believe I actually understood that, that's what we do.. we have a treatment plant at our facility and use ultraviolet to purify the well water we use for drinking.. the waste water once processed we use to irrigate.

@Eclipsed at another plant I look after all the effluent goes into a dam and it’s a EPA requirement that every drop goes onto the farmers harvest.. if the dam over flows it’s a licence breach and big money fines.. imagine trying to handle that in all the rain.. the farmer can’t use it, the grounds already soggy.. 😑
