Project Description:
Commonwealth has performed the design and coordinated with the
City's selected construction management team during construction of
a multi-faceted improvements project at the Belmont Advanced
Wastewater Treatment Facility. These projects generally
entail:
- Six (6) New Gravity Belt Thickeners (GBTs), Required
Modifications to Existing Facilities and Addition of Required
Support Equipment
- A New Primary Effluent Pump Station (PEPS)
- Improvements to the Existing Headworks, Trash Racks and Grit
Settling Tanks
- A New Plant Drain Pump Station
The major components of the GBT project include two gravity
sludge feed wells, four centrifugal pumps to feed sludge to the
gravity belt thickeners, six gravity belt thickeners, a polymer
feeding system, a non-potab
le water supply system, a filtrate
storage system and an odor control system.
The PEPs component of the project at the Belmont Wastewater
Treatment Plant (AWT) includes the construction of a new
submersible pump station to transfer primary effluent from the
Belmont AWT to the Southport AWT. This station consists of
three pumps. The firm capacity of the pump station (with two
of these pumps operating) is 30 MGD.
The Headworks component of the project is generally "maintenance"
in nature. Miscellaneous repairs and replacement work has
been designed and performed on the existing three (3) Infilco
Degremont, Inc. climber screens (150 MGD rated capacity) and Grit
Tanks / Equipment.
The Plant Drain Pump Station project at the Belmont Wastewater
Treatment Plant (AWT) includes the construction of a new drain pump
station consisting of one 20 mgd pump. The pump is
anticipated to be used only during wet weather flows when the screw
pumps are highly utilized.
