Tests carried out at the Jona Wastewater Purification Plant<br />
K. Wuhrrnann andH. Leidner<br />
BetweenJuly 1969 and the end of April<br />
1971 the EAWAG carried out extensive<br />
tests at the wastewater purification<br />
plant of Jona.<br />
The Jona plant isthefirst inSwitzerland<br />
to dispose of all three stages of waste-<br />
water treatment, which can be broken<br />
down as follows:<br />
1) Mechanical primary sedimentation<br />
(screen, degritter, aerated oil separator,<br />
primary sedimentation tank)<br />
2) Activated sludge stage<br />
(combined tank of the Aero-accelatortype,<br />
Lurgi AG)<br />
3) Subsequent chemical precipitation<br />
for P elimination (post precipitation)<br />
(Cyclatortype, Lurgi AG)<br />
In the choice of a sludge treatment<br />
method, aerobic sludge stabilization<br />
wasjustifiably preferredtoconventional<br />
digestion, as it offers theadvantagethat<br />
the exess sludge, which accumulates as<br />
a result of subsequent precipitation, can<br />
be used as a conditioning agent to de-<br />
water the ,,organic" sludges in the filter<br />
press.<br />
Some 4000 inhabitants were serviced<br />
by the wastewater purification plant<br />
during testing.<br />
The testing periods were broken down<br />
into smaller units of time, the length of<br />
which was determined by the duration<br />
of the tertiary stage of treatment under<br />
the various testing variables. Indepen-<br />
dentvariablesweresetfortheindividual<br />
testing objects. The minimum observa-<br />
tion period for plant operation under a<br />
particular testing variable was four<br />
weeks. More important tests, however.<br />
lasted considerably longer and, in the<br />
case of stabilization and post precipita-<br />
tion, were repeated after long intervals<br />
of time.<br />
Testing variables<br />
Indicated below are the values anticipated<br />
by the program and used as a<br />
criterion for determining the units of<br />
time for each test run.<br />
Post precipitation<br />
- L~me precipitation at a pH of 10.5 toll<br />
with1 mg Fe(lIlj11 usedasaflocculant<br />
- Lime precipitation at a pH of 10.5 toll<br />
with polyelectrolyte used as a flocculant<br />
- Lime Fe (Ill) precipitation with 10 mg<br />
Fe (III)/l and a limeadditive until a pH<br />
of 8.8 to 9 is reached in the precipi-<br />
tation chamber.<br />
Simultaneous precipitation<br />
- Fe (Ill) used; dosing until theeffluent<br />
has a total P content of 0.5 mg P/1.<br />
Sludgestabilization<br />
Two temperaturescales: ,,summerw and<br />
,,wintere' periods<br />
Sludge conditioning<br />
- using limeand Fe (Ill) as recommended<br />
by Lurgi<br />
- using sludge from post precipitation.<br />
possibly supplemented with lime and<br />
Sludge pressing<br />
- pressing the stabilized, conditioned<br />
organic sludge alone<br />
- pressing the sludge from subsequent<br />
precipitation<br />
- pressing a mixture of the sludge from<br />
stabilization and post precipitation.<br />
Table 1 gives a compilation of the main<br />
results and the actual values of the<br />
variables for all testing units. It shows<br />
that among the processes for post pre-<br />
cipitation, only those using lime pre-<br />
cipitation and flocculation with Fe (Ill)<br />
or combined lime Fe (Ill) precipitation<br />
were effective enough to produce the<br />
desired effluent concentration. Post<br />
precipitation with Fe (Ill) alone or Ca<br />
(OH)> precipitation with flocculation by<br />
means of polyelectrolyte proved un-<br />
satisfactory. Although this might seem<br />
surprising particulary for the latter pro-<br />
cess, it was found that the polyelectro-<br />
lyte was adsorbed to the precipitated<br />
CaC03, hamperingthegrowthof apatite<br />
and the adsorption of further compounds<br />
to a considerable extent. The insuffi-<br />
cient efficiency of Fe (Ill) precipitation,<br />
which roughly corresponded to that of<br />
simultaneous precipitation, isalso inter-<br />
esting. It must be concluded that, as in<br />
the case of post precipitation, the organic<br />
matter in the wastewater considerably<br />
impairs the adsorption capacity of the<br />
precipitated Fe (OH)&<br />
The unsatisfactory effluent quality with<br />
respect to P concentration duringsimultaneous<br />
precipitation that resulted despite<br />
the generous Fe (Ill) dose of<br />
19.2 mg/l was noted with surprise.This<br />
finding must, however, be accepted as<br />
valid for the process since no technical<br />
defects in the ~lant were found.<br />
The tests carried out on sludge stabilization<br />
under different testing variables<br />
(temperature, sludge concentration,<br />
02 input, mixing) revealed that no<br />
indication as to characteristic changes<br />
to be expected during stabilization<br />
could be inferred from the chemical<br />
composition of the solid matter in<br />
sludge. On the other hand, the observations<br />
showed that a correlation<br />
between stabilization variables and<br />
effects could be found on the basis of<br />
sludgewaterproperties.Sludgeconcentration,<br />
02 input, mixing as well as the<br />
speed with which oxygen is distributed<br />
to all points in the stabilization tank are<br />
decisive factors for effective stabilization.<br />
Experience has shown that the<br />
sludge concentration should not exceed<br />
209 DS/I, and the 02 concentration<br />
should be about 3 mg 021 1 (table 2).<br />
Agood solution tothe problemof sludge<br />
dewatering lies in the use of a filter<br />
press, which is safe and easy to operate<br />
and brings regular results (less than<br />
70% water content of the end product,<br />
less than 5%0 solid matter recycled to<br />
the plant for treatment). The sludge<br />
from subsequent precipitation that<br />
accumulates during the various<br />
processes of P elimination could be<br />
left to dewater without subsequent<br />
conditioning. The effectively "stabilized<br />
organic sludge could be thickened and
easily dewatered after conditioning with advantageous conditioning method tion without adding any further chemi-<br />
lime and Fe (Ill). From the economic was to mix the .,stabilized, organic cals: this mixture is the easiest to de-<br />
and operational point of view, the most sludge with sludge from post precipita- water.<br />

Pb (1I)Species in Natural Waters<br />
by Halka Bilinskiand WernerStumm<br />
The rate of release of lead exceeds the<br />
rate of natural circulation. Approxima-<br />
telyl million tons of Pb is introduced per<br />
year into the geosphere.Approximately<br />
75% of this quantity enters the waters.<br />
In order to understand the distribution<br />
of lead in naturalwaters(sedimentation.<br />
adsorption,association withsuspended<br />
materials, incorporation into the food<br />
chain) and its possibletoxicity, informa-<br />
tion on the forms of occurrence of Pb in<br />
dissolved and solid phases is necessary.<br />
With the help of anodic stripping (inversevoltammetry)<br />
using hanging drop<br />
mercury electrodes, the speciation of<br />
lead(ll) in dependence of solution variables<br />
(pH, alkalinity, organic ligands) has<br />
been investigated. Because of its great<br />
sensitivity, inversevoltammetry permits<br />
to investigate the solution behavior in<br />
the pH range of natural waters without<br />
precipitating of thesolid phases.<br />

mean N:P ratio in flowing pre-alpine<br />
waters varies from 20 to 200:1, while<br />
the figure for Central Switzerland is 60<br />
to 900:l. In Switzerland the tertiary sta-<br />
ge of wastewater purification, that is,<br />
the elimination of phosphates, is stipu-<br />
lated by law in the catchment area of<br />
lakes. Hence the N:P ratio in the drain-<br />
age area of lakes will never drop below<br />
20:l. Given balanced algal growth, the<br />
nutrients phosphorus and nitrogen are<br />
assimilated by these algae in a 7:l ratio<br />
by weight; consequently algal growth in<br />
such waters will be hampered by the<br />
phosphorusandnotthenitrogensupply.<br />
Although excessively high nitrate con-<br />
centrations can be a threat to ourdrink-<br />
ing water supply, our struggle to curb<br />
eutrophication must be oriented toward<br />
reducing phosphorus losses in the soil<br />
however insignificant they may be from<br />
the economic point of view.<br />

with an oligotrophic lake. Even with an<br />
annual phosphorus loss of as little as<br />
