Plant/Process Description:
The Palmdale WRP provides primary and secondary
treatment (aerated oxidation ponds) for 15 million
gallons of wastewater per day. The plant serves a
population of approximately 150,000 people.
Effluent is reused for irrigation of trees and
feed crops on City of Los Angeles Department of
Airports' property. The Palmdale WRP processes all
wastewater solids generated at the plant. The
wastewater solids are anaerobically digested,
stored, and then dewatered by spreading them onto
concrete drying beds. The dewatered cake, or
biosolids, is hauled away for composting. Methane
gas is produced during the digestion process and
is utilized by a co-generation process that heats
water and produces electricity.
