Wagner, J F

A case-history is presented of an industrial wastewater treatment system at a 200 MW coal-fired power station. Wastewater treatment facilities were constructed in 1979 to treat low-volume wastes, coal pile runoff and ash handling wastes. A new ash handling system was constructed at the same time. The collection and combustion of various wastewater streams, and clarifier sludge handling are discussed. The treatment systems include neutralisation with lime slurry, polymer addition, and clarification. The system has been operating since September 1980.
