THE SEWAGE plant which is carrying a load 25 per cent greater than it was designed for is badly in need of enlargement. according to Tooele City Manager Sidney Noble. estimates are Preliminary now being prepared by Tooele City engineer for expansion of the plant. Tooele City Council authcrized the study last November. A second digester is needed to cope with the greatly increased load, and other plant equipment. SLUDGE accumulating during the past seven years reached a depth where bacteria could no longer cope with the liquifying of the material and the capacity of the digester and the sewage plant to cope with the solids iti the sewage was effected. The Tooele City Sewage Treatment plant employs a bacteria and chemical process that separates solids from the. affluent and the solids are then pumped into the digester where bacteria breaks down the solids into sludge and affluent. Heating of the material and maintaining it at constant temperature and chemical stability to encourage the digestion of the solids by the bacteria is carried on in the digester process. THE SEWAGE is circulated and filtered in a manner that turns the sewage into affluent and sludge free from disease producing bacteria. Flow of sewage into the plant has increased from the 1.100.--00- 0 gallons per day to 1,400,000. 0 gallons per day which is gallons or about 25 percent' according to estimates, greater than the plant was design-- , ed to process. According to Clyde Hopkins. Utah State Board of Health Sanitarian, a delicate balance must be kept In both temperature and ph factor in the material entering the digester not only to allow bacterial growth but to produce sufficient methane gas as a of bacterial action to make the treatment plant self sustaining for fuel. - 300,-00- -- Burglars Break in -- Two burglaries were reported to Tooele City Police Tuesday.
