Simultaneous Nitrification and Denitrification in Biofilms of an Engineered Integrated Fixed-Film Activated Sludge (IFAS) System

The Florida coastal community of Green Cove Springs is experiencing sudden growth pressures from the expanding suburbs of the city of Jacksonsville. An engineering firm (Camp Dresser & McKee) was retained to plan a treatment upgrade of the Harbor Road Wastewater Treatment Plant. The objective was to meet a consent order from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection to meet an unionised ammonia limit of 0.02 mg/L for river discharge.
