WASTEWATER LAGOON SYSTEMS
• Provide secondary treatment of domestic wastewater by the action of bacteria stabilizing the organic matter in the wastewater.
• Meets the treatment standard required by Federal and Provincial authorities
• Withstands high flow and organic loading fluctuations
• Less costly than mechanical WWTPs.
• Less operator attention required than mechanical WWTPs.
• Relatively easy to maintain.
• Do require attention.

DISADVANTAGES of WASTEWATER LAGOONS
• Algae in effluent
• Less effective in removing Ammonia than other technologies
• Pond turnover and other odour issues
• Potential leakage concerns
• Long-term solids accumulation
• Larger foot-print required

TYPICAL LAGOON CONFIGURATION
• ANAEROBIC CELLS (2 cells or 4 cells) – 3 days of detention time
• FACULTATIVE CELL – 60 days of detention time
• STORAGE CELL – current standard is 1 year of storage

FACULTATIVE CELL
• Facultative cell is relatively shallow (2 meters), open to the sun and air
• Three layers of treatment in the cell:
• Aerobic bacteria
• Facultative bacteria
• Anerobic bacteria
• Each decompose organic matter in three different zones
![Page 10: PowerPoint Presentation Presentation.pdf · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Mike Yakemchuk Created Date: 11/14/2019 9:04:38 AM](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071117/6002428ee33a634f044d6454/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
AEROBIC ZONE
• Bacteria uses dissolved oxygen to decompose organic waste by oxidation
•Oxygen comes from wind action and photosynthesis
• Algae reacts with sunlight to produce new cells, releasing oxygen as a by-product
![Page 11: PowerPoint Presentation Presentation.pdf · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Mike Yakemchuk Created Date: 11/14/2019 9:04:38 AM](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071117/6002428ee33a634f044d6454/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
FACULTATIVE ZONE
• At a depth of 600 mm, sunlight penertration is reduced in the cell and dissolved oxygen levels are lower.
• Facultative bacteria can decompose organic matter under these lower oxygen levels
![Page 12: PowerPoint Presentation Presentation.pdf · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Mike Yakemchuk Created Date: 11/14/2019 9:04:38 AM](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071117/6002428ee33a634f044d6454/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
ANAEROBIC ZONE
•Wastewater solids, bacteria, and algae settle on the bottom of the cell and form a sludge layer
• Anaerobic digestion occurs where the bacteria converts organic matter into different volatile organic acids
![Page 13: PowerPoint Presentation Presentation.pdf · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Mike Yakemchuk Created Date: 11/14/2019 9:04:38 AM](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071117/6002428ee33a634f044d6454/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
STORAGE CELL
• As the name implies, cell contains the wastewater for a predetermined period time, usually one year
• Key element of storage cell is ability to hold liquid
• Clay liner must utilize a clay that demonstrates the ability to retain water
• Synthetic liners are usually HDPE geomembranes

MAINTENANCE of WASTEWATER LAGOON SYSTEM
• Regular monitoring of influent and inter-cell flow (weekly)
• Remove duckweed and scum – facultative cell
• Cut grass, weeds, and shrubs along the berm
• Control cattails
•Maintain fence surrounding lagoon
• Control rodents and other animals
![Page 19: PowerPoint Presentation Presentation.pdf · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Mike Yakemchuk Created Date: 11/14/2019 9:04:38 AM](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071117/6002428ee33a634f044d6454/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
BIOCHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND (BOD)
•Measures the organic strength in the wastewater
• 5 day BOD test measures the amount of oxygen required in a five day period by the micro-organisms need to consume the organic matter in wastewater
•Normal domestic wastewater varies between 150 – 250 mg/L BOD
• Effluent standard is less than 25 mg/L
![Page 20: PowerPoint Presentation Presentation.pdf · Title: PowerPoint Presentation Author: Mike Yakemchuk Created Date: 11/14/2019 9:04:38 AM](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071117/6002428ee33a634f044d6454/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
SUSPENDED SOLIDS (SS)
• Suspended solids removal is a important as BOD removal for preventing receiving stream pollution
•Normal domestic wastewater has similar SS and BOD levels (150 –250 mg/L)
• Effluent standard is less than 25 mg/L
• SS are difficult to remove from lagoon effluents due to the high concentration of algae in late summer and fall discharges
