Wastewater Treatment Plant
The City of Jeffersonville needed an additional wastewater treatment plant to ease the wastewater loads on its downtown plant and to build extra capacity for future growth. The new facility is capable of treating average daily flows of 3.0 mgd with peak capacity of 9.0-mgd hourly flows. Jeffersonville selected Lochmueller Group (Lochgroup) to provide preliminary engineering, design, and construction administration services.
Lochgroup used Pipeflow to model the needs of the on-site water system for the plant. The new facility includes:
- A headworks with mechanical fine screening & grit removal system
- Multiple loop reactor-type oxidation ditch
- Secondary clarifiers
- RAS/WAS pump station
- UV disinfection
- Non-potable water system
- Aerobic sludge holding tanks
- Sludge dewatering facility
