Description:

  The newly upgraded Stuarts Draft Wastewater Treatment Plant provides wastewater treatment for the Stuarts Draft Service Area. The design capacity is 2.4 mgd. The wastewater flow enters the plant through a 12- and 21-inch sewer line prior to entering preliminary treatment, which is an Aqua Guard Bar/Filter Screen with a screenings compactor. A portion of the influent flow can be directed to a two-cell aerated flow equalization lagoon for storage of excess flow during wet weather conditions. The screened wastewater is pumped to the Mixed Liquor Distribution Box before entering the two aeration tanks anoxic zone. The anoxic zone effluent flows over a weir into the aerobic zone, and then flows to the secondary clarifiers (2 units). Overflow from the clarifiers is directed to the denitrification filters. Alum feed facilities are provided to feed alum to the influent to the aeration tanks or to the mixed liquor flow to the secondary clarifiers for chemical phosphorus removal. Effluent from the denitrification filters flows to the ultraviolet (UV) disinfection before being discharged into the South River. The biosolids from the aerobic digesters are normally pumped to a belt filter press/gravity belt thickener (BFP/GBT) for dewatering prior to ultimate disposal. The dewatered biosolids are conveyed to a sludge truck loading station and then hauled to the landfill and mixed with soil and wood chips for a soil augmentation program. Alternatively, the digested biosolids can be land applied or can be hauled to the Fishersville or Middle River WWTPs for additional treatment.
