Case Study: Crown Point Wastewater Treatment Plant Selects In-Pipe Technology
By In-Pipe Technology Company
Crown Point selected In-Pipe Technology Company®, LLC with goals to reduce the quantity of waste sludge for disposal, increase organic capacity, and control odors at the plant. Crown Point, located in northwest Indiana approximately 45 miles from Chicago, spent nearly $200,000 on sludge expenses from polymer to hauling and disposal fees. Population growth in Crown Point increased sludge production that required expansion of the existing sludge storage building. In addition, they hoped increasing the organic capacity would increase the MCRT (Mean Cell Residence Time) to push back their need for a new anaerobic digester expected to cost $1 million.
