Annual Meeting,

NYC Marriott

Marquis.


Welcome to the 90th Annual Meeting!

It is my privilege to welcome you to the New York Water Environment Association’s 90th Annual Meeting. The NYWEA Board of Directors is pleased to once again host the meeting at the Marriott Marquis in New York City. This Times

opportunity to network with other water professionals, exchange information at the many technical sessions, and

NYWEA is excited to celebrate its 90th Annual Meeting by focusing on the many successes our industry has experienced over the last 90 years – none of which would have been possible without the hard work of the operators, managers, engineers, regulators and equipment suppliers we proudly call NYWEA members. Our industry has gone from open ditches to the nearest water body, to simple primary treatment, to secondary treatment, to in many cases advanced treatment facilities recovering essential resources such as nitrogen, phosphorus, heat, energy and most importantly water. We can easily see the evolution of our industry in the way some of our facilities have come to be known: from sewage treatment plants, wastewater treatment plants, water pollution control facilities, and advanced wastewater treatment facilities, to today’s water resource recovery facilities. The advancement and evolution will continue as will be necessary to address tomorrow’s water quality issues. That is precisely why we have the theme for this meeting of “Celebrating the Past While Moving Forward.”

Our Opening General Session will focus on this year’s theme of “Celebrating the Past While Moving Forward.” I am always amazed when I talk to colleagues in the water industry about how their facilities evolved over time. As a bit of a history enthusiast, I am looking forward to hearing our own Patricia Cerro-Reehil, NYWEA Executive Director, provide a summary of NYWEA’s 90-year history. Adrienne Esposito, from the Citizen’s Campaign for the Environment, will present a historical view of water quality challenges and accomplishments in New York State. I am very excited to hear from NYCDEP Commissioner Vincent Sapienza talk about his department’s long and interesting history. He must have stories that could only happen in New York City. We will also hear about water quality history and evolution from our New York State agencies, NYSDEC and NYSEFC, and welcome their participation. We will conclude the Opening General Session looking forward with students from City College presenting their green infrastructure and stormwater management

there are too many individuals and committees to name here, but I would like to recognize the great work of the

sessions and over 180 exhibitors.

suppliers and attendees’ interest in innovative technology and services. We moved the technical sessions that were

be in the Exhibit Hall to provide many opportunities to visit exhibitors who are a crucial part of our Annual Meeting.

The technical sessions commence Monday afternoon and run through Wednesday afternoon, during which you will have to choose between multiple concurrent sessions that will certainly make for a tough decision on which sessions to attend. Professional Development Hours (PDHs) for licensed engineers and Continuing Education Units (CEUs) for

technical content, so credits will not factor into your session attendance decision.

The strong technical program is enhanced with a number of social and networking opportunities including Sunday afternoon’s theater event, Monday night’s Exhibitor’s Reception, and the Young Professionals Reception Tuesday night. Wednesday at noon is NYWEA’s Awards Luncheon during which we will recognize well deserving individuals’ contribution

for the coming year at the conclusion of the Awards Luncheon.

Thank you for your attendance and participation at NYWEA’s 90th Annual Meeting. Enjoy everything the meeting has

we NYWEA members look forward to tackling the next water quality challenges. Thank you for making it a great meeting!

3:30 pm Strasburg Water Resource Recovery Facility Yields Major Cost Savings Andrew Casolini Dal Bo, Jamie Johnson, Wendel

The Town of Strasburg, Virginia, needed to expand and upgrade to a 2.0 MGD, state-of-the-art facility to meet Department of Environmental Quality nutrient reduction requirements. A progressive design-build model provided a transparent and inclusive planning process. Strasburg’s goals were met and an outdated Department of Public Works complex was also replaced with a new $5 million facility. Utilizing a portion of the existing facility resulted in innovative design savings, which paid for more than the new facility.

MODERATORS

1:30 pm Did the New Revenue Really Show Up? Operating Results from Virginia’s Newest Organics Co-digestion Facility Dennis Clough, Aidan Murphy, Energy Systems Group

In 2004, the Frederick-Winchester Service Authority made a bet, as part of a $47 million plant improvement project, that if they made the additional investment to oversize a new anaerobic digester complex so they could accept organics from the local region, it would provide them new sources of revenue that would make them a

Did it work?

2:00 pm Co-digestion of Organic Solid Waste at POTWs – Pre-treatment Options Joerg Blischke, Black & Veatch

Municipal publicly owned treatment works (POTWs) with excess digester capacity may be able to co-digest a wide range of organic feedstocks with promising biogas yields, but may be concerned with the inhomogeneous nature and level of contamination of organic solid waste. This presentation provides an overview of pre-treatment technol-ogies for organic solid waste with particular focus on the removal of physical contaminants (such as glass, plastics, sand and stones) and the generation of homogeneous, organic-rich waste slurry ready for co-digestion.

3:30 pm Is New York State Ready for Class A Exceptional Quality (EQ) Biosolids? George Bevington, Gerhardt LLC; Jim Belcastro, Lystek International

There are many methods available to dispose of biosolids generated at New York State wastewater treatment

into Class A material by many technologies including drying, composting, anaerobic digestion, lime stabilization and thermal hydrolysis. While these technologies can produce Class A material meeting stringent State and Federal

lessons learned attempting to permit and construct a Class A biosolids facility.

4:00 pm Understanding the Role of Mixing and Viscosity in Rapid Volume Expansion Due to Gas Holdup in Anaerobic Digesters Nicholas Bartek, Brown and Caldwell; Matthew J. Higgins, Steven Beightol, Bucknell University; Sudhir Murthy, DC Water


To prevent gas holdup and rapid volume expansion (RVE), biogas bubbles must rise through digester contents and evolve into the headspace at a rate equivalent to their nucleation/growth. Given the non-Newtonian behavior of digester contents, this study demonstrated that the extent of RVE decreases as mixing increases because an increase in mixing will lead to a decrease in viscosity and increase in bubble rise velocity. Therefore, adequate mixing is crucial for mitigating RVE.

3:30 pm Jamaica WWTP Turns Redundancy into Full Scale Operation Alyki Malliaros, William Pfrang, AECOM; Don Akamnonu, Courtnay Anderson, NYCDEP

Historically, the Jamaica Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in New York City has experienced poor thickening of combined sludges, with thickened sludge concentrations ranging from 4.0 percent to as low as 2.3 percent solids. Under the Jamaica Phase 2 stabilization upgrades, various improvements and upgrades to the existing sludge

-tions as well as provisions for one gravity belt thickener (GBT). While initially serving as a supplemental means to thicken sludge during construction, the GBT has proven immeasurable and is now an integral part of everyday oper-ations. In particular, the GBT has enhanced level 2 step-feed biological nitrogen removal (BNR), aiding in the removal of surface activated waste from the aeration tanks. As part of their normal operations, the plant wastes sludge

of this operation is a substantial improvement in sludge thickening performance, with the GBT producing thickened solids concentrations greater than 5 percent and achieving solids capture in excess of 90 percent. By maximizing the amount of waste activated sludge that is sent to the GBT, the gravity thickeners process mostly primary sludge, resulting in the production of thicker sludge that complies with the United States Environmental Protection Agency

Celebrating 100 Years!

They won this competition when they presented the following study:

Waterborne diseases cause 3.4 million deaths annually, concen-

trated in countries lacking sanitary water. Conventional methods,

such as PCR, can be costly, take several days, and have detection

limits up to 1,000 CFUs. Thus, the purpose of this study was to engineer

more rapid time frame and a lower detection threshold. Graphene was

utilized to create biosensors through the immobilization of enzymes

that target analytes released during respiration of Salmonella, Shigella,

Cholera, and E. coli. When these bacteria respire, they produce analytes

that, when in contact with the enzymes, produce a varying electric

current that can be read by an ammeter to determine the presence of

bacteria. The sensors were able to detect the presence of at least 1 CFU

of bacteria in 1 L of water instantaneously. A mechanized approach was

then taken to purify contaminated water samples through the use of

arduino micro controllers. This module was successful in detecting min-

ute levels of bacteria in a rapid time frame and purifying the water of

pathogens. These two systems can be used in conjunction to decrease

the threat of waterborne disease that exists in the world today.

BE A LEADER & HELP NYWEA’S SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM GROWMATCHING FUND PLEDGE FORM

Your contribution will help reinforce the foundation of the existing Scholarship Program. This is the third phase of the program. Your pledge will be used dollar for dollar to solicit matching donations from members that have not contributed and will make their contributions go further. This program is targeted to get as many new members as possible, so the matching funds will be used only to match donations from new contributors. Also, the amount is limited to $20/year for five years to spread the matching funds as far as possible. Matching fund contributors will be recognized uniquely on the website and in Clear Waters magazine.

We are looking for contributors to pledge at the $2,500 to $5,000 level – that is $500 to $1,000 per year for five years to establish the matching fund.

o YES! I would like to lead the way and pledge $ ________ .

Contact Person _______________________________ Phone _________________ Email _______________________

It is anticipated

that this program

will allow NYWEA

to grant over $50,000

in scholarships in 2018.

Phase III – Matching Fund Program

K eeping the scholarship fund momentum growing is essential to demonstrate NYWEA’s commit-ment to the water environment cause, is not just for ourselves but for our children and generations of children to come. This is truly a program of which each NYWEA member can be proud.

Remember, the success of our students is our success as well!

Make a donation or become a matching fund contributor and make a difference for a student pursuing an environmental degree. Phases I and II raised significant funds for the scholarship program, the goal of Phase III is to get as many of our members to be donors. We are looking for donations from members who have not previously given – become part of this program and your donation will be matched and provide double the benefit!

Contact Patricia Cerro-Reehil at (315) 422-7811 if you would like to make a pledge or donation to this important program.

Please Help Us Keep the Momentum

Going in 2018 and Beyond!
