Bioreactor water treatment

Construction of $4 million Bioreactor Water Treatment Plant at Former Coal Tar Plant

ProAct completed construction and prove out of a 100 gallon per minute groundwater treatment system in 2007 for a major chemical company. The primary treatment process used 3-9000 gallon bioreactors to remove organic contaminates from groundwater at a former coal tar plant. ProAct installed a treatment building, plumbing, reactor tanks and new storage tank at a former large coal tar plant. The groundwater was contaminated with moderate to high concentrations of naphthalene, phenols, PNA's and other semi-volatile organic compounds. Features of the construction included:
Building Construction Under road and railroad jack and bore Groundwater well pump installation Above and below ground pipe runs 50,000 gallon holding tank and secondary containment 3-9,000 gallon bio reactors Bag filters Oil/water separator Sludge thickener Carbon tanks Chemical injection pumps Allen Bradley Scada controls 30 day continuous operation prove out The project was completed in less than one year from award
