Impact of Distillery Effluent on Snug Cove WWTP Capacity Our File 0744.037-300

1. Introduction A new distillery on Bowen Island, Copper Spirit Distillery (the Distillery), has requested to discharge treated effluent from their operations to the sanitary sewer system for the Snug Cove wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in the Bowen Island Municipality (BIM).

The distilling operation is a typical batch type process. The Distillery proposes to install a preliminary wastewater treatment system to reduce their effluent total suspended solids (TSS) and adjust the pH to within a range comparable to typical domestic sewage concentrations. However, the Distillery does not expect that the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) can be reduced to typical domestic sewage concentrations for discharge into the sanitary sewer.

High BOD wastewater discharged into BIM’s sanitary sewer system will reduce the available treatment capacity and has the potential to cause process upsets and/or effluent exceedances at the WWTP. Other municipalities have applied a high strength liquid waste surcharge fee structure to charge sanitary sewer users for high strength wastewater; BIM may want to consider a similar approach.

The objectives of this memorandum are twofold:

1. To review and update existing and projected municipal flows and loads to the WWTP; and 2. To determine the potential impact of the Distillery high BOD wastewater on the WWTP.

It is expected that the BIM will use this information to inform how they contract with the Distillery to accept their waste.

2. Municipal Flows and Loads A site visit by Jason Vine and Karen Sutherland was conducted on March 24, 2017 to review the current operation of the WWTP and collect BIM’s record data.

The WWTP was built in early 1999 and was expanded in 2011. It is being operated under permit PE-07859 (refer to Appendix A). The original WWTP consisted of two Upflow Sludge Blanket Filtration (USBF) process bioreactors; a third bioreactor was installed during the 2011 upgrades. Refer to the Snug Cove WWTP Assessment (MESI, 2013) for details about the upgrade.

In reviewing data on site, it was noted that the effluent flow meter output signal did not correspond to pump operation. In addition, it was identified that the effluent weir level sensor used to calculated plant effluent flows might not be properly calibrated.

2.1 Weir Calibration and Corrected Flows KWL was tasked with calibrating the effluent weir, reviewing the historical flow records, and adjusting the historical records to reflect the results of the calibrated weir. BIM’s historical records are stored in FlowWorks.

In April 2017, Jason Vine and Tabe Johnson visited the site to calibrate the effluent V-notch weir. V-notch weirs are used to measure flow rate based on measured liquid elevation above the V-notch which is converted to a flow rate using a well-established formula, as follows:

1380 ∗ ^2.5 Where:

Q = flow, m3/s 1380 is a coefficient H = height of water above the notch, m

Based on the information and data collected at site, the coefficient was reduced by 17%, from 1380 to 1145.4, to improve the correlation between the measured and recorded flow rates. The revised formula is as follows:

0.83 ∗ 1380 ∗ ^2.5

The conversion formula in FlowWorks was then updated to reflect the coefficient adjustment and historical flows were recalculated. The following analysis is based on the corrected FlowWorks historical data.

2.2 Flows and Loads

Current Flows The current WWTP flows and loads were estimated using the following information:

BIM estimates that approximately 100 connections have been added to the system since the MESI 2013 report which yields a current population of 469 people. Refer to the Catchment Summary Table in Appendix B;

The commercial flows contribute 0.052 L/s or 4.5 m3/d to the system. Refer to the Catchment Summary Table in Appendix B; and

A summary of influent and effluent data, either collected by the operations staff for plant control or reported to the Ministry of Environment (MoE) for permitting requirements, is included in Appendix C. This includes the updated FlowWorks data.

Based on historical data, the current minimum, average and maximum daily flows are summarized in Table 1. Daily flows from April 2015 to March 2017 were used as there was more confidence in the accuracy of this data. The data was further broken down into average winter and summer flows for each year, to better understand seasonal variations. Winter flows during this period were significantly higher than summer flows.

77 88

Average Summer (Apr-Sep 2016) Average Winter (Oct 2016-Mar 2017)

74 96

Based on the current population of 469, the flow per capita was estimated at 180 L/capita. The per capita flow was used to estimate the contributions from the single and multiple family dwellings and is presented in the Catchment Summary Table in Appendix B.

180 L/capita·day water use falls within the typical range for domestic indoor use of 150 to 300 L/ capita·day, significant outdoor use could add another 60-350 L/ capita·day.1 BIM water users are considered ‘water conservation aware’ therefore the indoor use projection of 180 L/capita·day was used for calculations.

The average winter flow in 2016, 96 m3/d, was very close to the WSER limit of 100 m3/d and the peak recorded flow was 151 m3/d. Above an average daily flow of 100 m3/d, the Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations (WSER) comes into effect and changes in treatment and reporting are required.

Wastewater Systems Effluent Regulations (WSER) The WSER is a federal wastewater regulation announced by Environment Canada, effective June 29, 2012. This regulation applies to all discharges of over 100 m³/day (average) to water.

Reports for discharge flow rate, carbonaceous biochemical oxygen demand, total suspended solids, and un-ionized ammonia are required under the WSER as outlined in Table 2.

The frequency of reporting varies based on average discharge rate. Combined sewer overflow reports are also required on an annual basis. The WSER is likely applicable to the Snug Cove WWTP as the current discharges sometimes exceed 100 m³/d.

Current Loads There was limited influent BOD and TSS data because reporting to MoE is limited to effluent BOD and TSS concentrations. Data from 17 available influent samples taken from 2005 to 2015 along with the WWTP design concentration from the 2011 O&M manual are presented in Table 3.

The average day influent BOD and TSS concentrations were both within the range of typical municipal systems.2 The design BOD concentration (400 mg/L) was used for loading rate calculations since BIM indicated that concentrations are typically higher in the summer due to lower infiltration. The average measured TSS was used to calculate loading rates.

The estimated BOD and TSS loads are summarized in Table 4 below. The WWTP design load from the 2011 O&M manual are also presented.

The calculated average influent BOD load per capita, based on the design value of the plant to approximate summer loading, was typical of American BOD loading values of 0.075 kg/c·d.3

The design BOD concentrations used is significantly higher than the average calculated concentration of 288 mg/L. BIM may want to consider collecting additional influent data to confirm influent concentrations and better understand the impact of additional development on the system.

Projected Flows and Loads BIM indicated that the system will likely be expanded to include the following connections for a total of 132 additional people:

Abbey Field; A senior’s complex; 12 new lots; and 10 houses along Miller Road.

The projected flows and loads were compared to the WWTP design values from the 2011 O&M manual and are presented in Table 5.

Total 601 112 30 28 WWTP Design Values 240 58 38

Based on the current calculated flow rate of 180 L/cap·day, the WWTP has the capacity to treat a population equivalent flow of 1,300 people.

The additional connections are expected to result in the plant exceeding 100 m3/d which will trigger WSER compliance requirements. However, flows and loads are expected to fall well within the design capacity of the WWTP.

3. Impact of Distillery High BOD Wastewater The Distillery will include both a production facility and a small restaurant for the public. Wastewater generated as part of the distilling process will be separated from other wastewater streams generated at the site, such as toilets and the kitchen. The Distillery confirmed that a grease trap will be installed on the kitchen effluent line.

The Distillery provided the following information on the expected flows and loads of the distillery and their intended operation to manage the wastewater:

The distilling operation is a batch type process. Three equalization tanks will collect wastewater generated by the process to allow for control of pH, temperature and TSS;

The intent is to monitor the pH, temperature and COD in the equalizations tanks and discharge a consistent amount of wastewater daily to minimize surges to the municipal collection system; and

The wastewater is expected to have the characteristics presented in Table 6. This data was provided by the Distillery in an email dated April 4, 2017 (see Appendix D). KWL has not reviewed the calculation of the expected loadings.

The connection of a distillery to BIM’s sanitary sewer system will increase the BOD loading to the WWTP disproportionately compared to the additional flow because distillery effluent is high in BOD compared to domestic sewage. The additional flow has the potential to reduce the available WWTP capacity to treat additional loads from other residences or commercial activities.

To quantify the impact of the Distillery’s high BOD strength wastewater on the WWTP, the Distillery’s estimated BOD loadings have been converted into equivalent per capita BOD load in Table 7 and equivalent flow for comparison. The actual flow increase of 850 L/d is included in the table as a reference.

The current connected BIM population is approximately 469 full time residents with a projected connected population increase of 132 residents. The maximum increase in BOD load due to the distillery is equivalent to a population of 56 persons.

The maximum recorded daily flow to the plant was 151 m³/d on January 28, 2016.

The existing WWTP was designed for an influent average dry weather flow (max day) of 240 m3/d and peak hourly flow of 21 m³/hr with an average influent BOD of 400 mg/L or 58 kg/d. The addition of the distillery flows and projected flows from system expansion are below the design values of the WWTP, as outlined in Table 8. The WWTP should be able to treat the additional flows, provided the distillery flows are discharged to the system slowly.

Subject: RE: DBI Water and Wastewater

Numbers are correct but a bit misunderstood. Let me detail my calculations:

I assume 3 batches per week at peak production.

Main full load process water has COD 3000mg/L and equivalent BOD 1800mg/L and TSS 400mg/L. I will be

doing side-streaming (i.e. removing some of the heaviest load process water at the source) so loads might

actually be lower, but rounding up. There will be 900L x 3 batches per week for a total of 2700L/week of

process water with these loads.

There is also about 1000L/batch of process water for cleaning, with loads of COD 1200mg/L and BOD

700mg/L, which is another 3000L/week at these lower loads.

I will install a sedimentation and equalization tanks to mix this process water with the cleaning water and will

actually be releasing 2700+3000=5700L/week which is around 815L of combined effluent with a combined

load of COD 1.671kg and BOD 0.994kg per day. For the COD/BOD @ peak you have in your table, I didn't

take into account the difference in process vs cleaning water loads and was rounding up for safety.

I include my calculation table below.

Hi Bob,

I’m been looking at the expected data provided by the Distillery.

• They mentioned a 3kg BOD/d daily load but I can’t figure out where that comes from if the peak flow is

850L/d. (3000 mg/L * 850 L/d * 10-6kg/mg) = 1.53 kg/d

• They also mention 1070 mg BOD @ 850L load. Again, not sure if the BOD concentration is lower at

peak flows due to higher amount of wash water.

Can you forward my questions with the table below and ask them to confirm how they calculated 3-4

kg/d BOD. Thanks.

Subject: Re: DBI Water and Wastewater

Hi Bob,

I see the BOD/COD as parameters of the treatment plant that should be already known,

all I'm looking for is a number (a maximum in good faith) that I should not exceed so I

can then plan accordingly. It's not about the impact of the distillery, is more about

figuring out plant capacity. I'm not really happy about being charged to figure out this

treatment plant maximum but was told that there will be no permit if I don't pay, so what

can I say?

The numbers I'm calculating are based on industry standards for average loads, I've

talked to other distillers as well and they confirm. Having said that, I don't want to be

limited by these, again I'm looking for a number to hit because my loads are actually

variable and I have flexibility. Also I'd like to know what possibility I have of expanding

in the future, so I definitely don't want the engineers to think that these are set in stone

numbers and instead have them think on plant maximum numbers and what would

happen if we exceded them later on.

Also since we are going to have to have a 4" main, we didn't pay for the water

connection yesterday, as it was indicated as 1" in the form. What will the process to hook

up a 4" main look like?

I'm looking for all the help I can get on these Bob, hopefully the project is still viable

after all.

distillery . I have received a quote for $ 781.00 to assess the impact of the

distillery on our treatment plant. This will be added to the permit for the sewer

hookup. Are you fine with this? One question would be where did these

numbers come from?

Below is a list of questions that needs to be answered before Public Works will issue a permit to connect to the sewer. this will help us figure out the impact of the distillery waste on the WWTP:

1. Will distillery waste be separate from other waste (i.e. toilets)?

Yes, completely separate.

2. Will there be wastewater other than distillery waste? I.e. – are they planning on having a kitchen and serving food?

Yes, there is a kitchen and we are planning on having a grease trap for this.

Regarding distillery waste only:

3. Will there be holding tanks for the distillery waste? What is the plan for discharging to the sewer system? Discharges need to be controlled to limit system surges.

Yes, there will be 3 equalizing tanks for pH, temp and sediment. I plan to monitor and log pH, temp and COD in the equalized tanks, then discharge a consistent amount of wastewater daily to contain surges. Wastewater will have a pH of 6.5-8.5, temp 20-40°C, COD of around 3000mg/L and equivalent BOD of around 1800mg/L.

3. Flows:

a. Expected average daily flow (m3/d) and peak flow (m3/d) discharged. At peak production, the expected daily flow will be around 850L with 1790mg of COD load or 1070mg of BOD equivalent load. No peak surges since the flow is managed.

Or

b. Number of expected batches/month and Volume of wastewater/batch. At peak production, I will have 12 batches/month and 1900L of wastewater/batch or around 23m3/mo.

5. BOD of wastewater (mg/L) 1070mg at 850L daily load.

6. COD of wastewater (mg/L) if available 1790mg at 850L daily load.

7. TSS of wastewater (mg/L) 400mg at 850L daily load.

8. pH should be controlled to between 6.5 and 8.5 (TBC w/ Bowen); How will pH be controlled? I will monitor and

log pH in the equalizing tanks to fit this range before discharge.

Hello Bob,

I realize after the fact that I had included non-process water in the calculations and it's really a 3-4kg daily load not 6kg like a mentioned yesterday. 4kg a day would be operating at maximum capacity which I don't expect to be in the first year. So it's closer to a 3kg a day BOD load.

Also forgot to ask, is there a recent water quality report available? I'm planing the filtering system and it would be helpful to know what kind of water is available at the cove. I imagine you have the water quality tested frequently.

Hi Daniel,

We have looked into some of the questions from the municipality regarding civil works. We believe to have strategies in place for all concerns.

Agreed, a meeting prior to submission would be ideal. Would next Tuesday work well for everyone?

We should have a round of all mechanical, electrical, structural and architectural drawings with us to review.

Best,

Hi Rafael,

Yes, all looks good from the ADP. I’ll be drafting the DP either Friday or early next week.

Regarding the BP, Bob is still waiting for information on the sewer. In addition, he had questions about the basement. He says that in lower Snug Cove the water table can be quite high, so building a full height basement may mean that you will have to have a pump running to keep the basement dry. Have you looked into this?

I don’t know that we have issued a BP in stages before. I’ll look into our Building Bylaw and see what it allows us to do.

I would still recommend if you are able to come over to have a meeting with Konrad and Public Works in advance of submitting your Building Permit so we can discuss logistics including how construction will take place.

Hi Daniel,

I’m heard news from Miguel that the DP seems to be in the final stages of approval which is great to hear!

As he review some last minute changes to the basement and structural implications, I have to ask if the municipality could consider phasing

Building Permits so that the contractor can begin fencing and excavation sooner than later.

Our plan was to submit a building permit application next week, but we are likely 2 weeks late with that target. Contractor however, anticipated March 21st as the ground break milestone. What would you recommend?
