New method, for sewage .treatment is announced A revolutionary new process which will save Ontario "millions of dollars" in addition to removing algae -nourishing nutrients from sewage . was revealed by minister of energy and resources management, Geor Kerr, in a public address •in i ville last week. The process was developed by the Ontario Water Resources Commission. Designed to be inexpensively incorporated into existing sewage treatment systems,- the method effects a high degree. of nutrient removal from waste water via a lime precipitation process. In full-scale trials conducted at OWRC's Richmond Hill, Ontario, plant, reductions of 92 per cent of the phosphorus content of sewage were achieved. Similar reductions were achieved in • organic nitrogen content. Phosphorus and nitrogen are two nutrients in municipal sewage critically associated with the development of algae. The best methods of treatment currently in use throughout North America remove only ,about 39% of these ingredients.

"By effecting greater operating efficiencies . the method can ' increase the capacity of a plant 'by as much as '50 per ' cent," Mr. Kerr pointed out. "This means that - municipalities can now expand the capacity of their facilities at a fraction of what it would cost by conventional methods and remove phosphorus and nitrogen besides." He added that he expects the technique will be adopted with "a minimum of hesitation" since, .... it can be easily and inexpensively incorporated into the operating procedure of a conventional treatment plant. A second lime precipitation method, being developed as a guideline for the construction of new plants, is currently undergoing final tests on a pilot scale at. the OWRC laboratories.
