APPENDIX F ARBENNIE PRITCHETT WRF
Appendix F - The Arbennie Pritchett Water
Reclamation Facility
Okaloosa County is implementing a $ 65M program to construct the new 10 million gallon
WRF) that will replace the
per day (mgd) Arbennie Pritchett Water Reclamation Facility (
Garniers Wastewater Treatment Plant ( WWTP). The new WRF will provide new and
aging
improved technology, will have the capacity to serve a larger service area, will provide
enhanced operational performance, and will remove the existing Garniers WWTP from the
ever increasing residential congestion at its current location. The new WRF
is under
construction at the existing Garniers spray field property that is located on Eglin Air Force
Base ( AFB) property that is leased from the Air Force for this use. Construction is expected
to be completed in September 2009.
This program includes several elements

Biological Treatment Process
The biological treatment process is intended to remove or reduce organic constituents,
nutrients, and suspended solids from the wastewater. Treatment includes activated
sludge
bioreactors, secondary clarification, and return activated sludge ( RAS) and waste activated
sludge ( WAS) pumping. The process is designed and constructed to meet the influent
loadings based on an average daily flow of 10 mgd and the future peak hourly flow of 25
mgd.
The activated sludge bioreactor system is furnished to provide necessary biological
treatment of the wastewater to meet permit conditions, and is designed to reduce
carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand ( CBOD), ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate to the
prescribed effluent treatment levels, when this process is followed by secondary clarification.
The two biological treatment basins are configured with influent entering an anoxic zone to
provide both anoxic selector and denitrification when combined with the nitrate rich internal
recycle ( NRCY) from the aeration zone. The effluent from the anoxic zone flows into the
aeration zone for biological treatment and oxidation of the influent CBOD and ammonia.
Mixed liquor suspended solids ( MLSS) flow from the aerobic zone to a second
anoxic/ aerobic process where further reduction in the levels of CBOD, nitrate, and nitrite
occur before the MLSS flows to the two secondary clarifiers.
The secondary clarifiers provide liquid- solids separation and are designed based on USEPA
Class 1 Reliability Requirements. The RAS pumping system is provided to return MLSS that
have settled in the secondary clarifiers to the activated sludge biological treatment basins
before the first anoxic zone. The WAS pumping system is provided to remove a portion of
the MLSS from the secondary clarifiers to the solids digestion process. Figure F1 is a
process diagram of the facility.
Effluent Management
Effluent management includes UV disinfection and effluent pumping and an in- plant
reclaimed water system for process operations and landscape irrigation. The effluent
management structure includes the new UV light disinfection system, as well as the
pumping wet well for the effluent and in- plant water pumps. The structure has equipped to
handle the current average daily and peak flow of 10 mgd and 25 mgd respectively; but has
been designed and constructed to accommodate additional equipment to meet the future
average daily and peak hourly flows of 15 mgd and 37. 5 mgd. The new UV disinfection
system equipment shall disinfect the clarifier effluent to the limits prescribed in the permit.
The UV system shall implement low pressure high intensity lamps arranged in open
channels where the water shall flow by gravity continuously. The new effluent pumps
consist of three vertical turbine pumps designed to pump the peak hourly flow of 25 mgd to
the new RIBs.
