When compared to the conventional activated sludge option, the incorporation<br />
of nitrification into the process design increases the capital cost of this option<br />
by over $0.5 M, or approximately 35 percent.<br />
4.8 LIFE CYCLE COST ANALYSIS<br />
Seven basic options were identified in the previous sections as being<br />
appropriate for evaluation. Two of the options, Options 6 and 7, are based on<br />
maintaining full secondary treatment at the Blackbum WWTP site. These two<br />
options have been further subdivided into Options 6a and 6b, and 7a and 7b,<br />
respectively, to address the issue of ammonia toxicity removal. Conceptual<br />
level costing has been developed for each of the options as well as detailed
