Sanitaire ICEAS in Portage, PA: Advanced Technologies Stop Plant Bypasses
PORTAGE AREA SEWER AUTHORITY
USA
Before a $10.2 million upgrade, the Portage Area Sewer Authority was operating in a facility built in 1972. Addressing additional peak capacity was a primary goal of the project to correct hydraulic limitations that previously required repeated bypasses during heavy rainfall events. Xylem's Sanitaire ICEAS advanced SBR system’s smaller footprint directly met their requirements and also resulted into lower construction cost and the flexibility to customize the continuous treatment cycle to respond to variable flows.
