  • Serves Washington DC, plus areas of

MD and VA

  • 391 MGD average daily capacity
  • Covers ~160 acres
  • Advanced secondary treatment –

filtration, N and P removal

  • Discharges to Potomac River, which

flows into Chesapeake Bay

Multimedia Effluent Filters

An opportunity to deploy analytics using historical data going back to 2009. One approach used MATLAB with support from the University of Cincinnati. DATA PREPARATION

‐ Perform Data Collection ‐ Identify Data Ranges and Failures ‐ Define Data Structure ‐ Perform Initial Analysis ‐ Perform Data Clean Up

Feature extraction

‐ Time‐domain statistical parameters ‐ Frequency‐domain features ‐ Time‐Frequency domain

Analysis ‐ Feature Selection ‐ Failure Signature ‐ Health Assessment

Using Existing Data Multimedia Effluent Filters

Multimedia filters are being used as the last wastewater treatment step to remove small floating particles from the wastewater using multiple media, underdrains, backwash waster and air. The backwash process occurs approximately once daily. A blown filter is described as an structural defect that would let the fluid pass media without being filtered (shortcut) and the media to be released and enter the backwash water during backwash. Blown filters are caused by rupture

  • f

the underdrains

Multimedia Effluent Filters

Filter 1‐South was reported blown on Jan 17th 2016. As the group comparison for head loss shows, the filter had an abrupt change in its behavior starting in early December, causing CV values to drop. Backwash flow CV suggests similar behavior in the same time frame. Using the final health metric for this filter, warning and failure alarms could have been raised by Dec 5th/ 6th, 40 days before the failure was reported.
