- Abstract
- Control of nitrogen in municipal wastewater effluent is one of the key challenges facing coastal wastewater treatment plants. Natural treatment systems provide a cost-effective means of removing nitrogen, as well as trace organic contaminants – an emerging concern for wastewater treatment plant operators – from municipal wastewater effluent. One application of this concept is to place wetlands between existing flood control levees and the tidal mud flats that line SF Bay. These “living levees” provide multiple benefits by improving water quality, creating wildlife habitat and protecting coastal levees from storm surges. An experimental system at Oro Loma Sanitary District was constructed to demonstrate and study how these systems work. This system is being monitored to evaluate the ability of these systems to polish wastewater effluent.
