Abstract:The present scale of a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Suzhou is 40 000 m3/d, and the effluent standard reaches the first grade A standard of Discharge Standard for Pollutants in Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plant (GB 18918-2002). According to the "Three-year Action Plan" in Suzhou, the effluent standards of WWTPs in the administrative area are required to comply with Suzhou Special Discharge Restrictions from January 1. 2021. The difficulty of the project lies in the stable standard of TP (<0.3 mg/L), short construction period and land shortage. Through the comparison, the coagulation air flotation process is adopted as the advanced treatment process of TP. And the principles and core design parameters of the process are introduced. The data and costs of the influent and effluent since its put into operation are analyzed. The results show that the effluent value of TP can be stable below 0.3 mg/L, the total head loss can be controlled within 0.7 m, and the direct operating cost is 0.076 yuan/m3. The use of integrated device can realize the quick start and quick operation. The relative experience can be referenced for the projects with short construction period and high water quality requirements.
