Waste Water Treatment Plant
City of Moscow Wastewater Treatment Plant
Brief History
The first Moscow Wastewater Treatment Plant was constructed in 1918, consisting of two large septic tanks with contact beds for secondary treatment. The treatment plant was again upgraded in 1957 with two new primary and secondary clarifiers.
In 1961, the plant was again upgraded with an effluent irrigation system for the lawn, pre-chlorination, new digester gas control equipment, automatic chlorine feed, and liquid digested sludge disposal facilities. In 1973, a chlorine contact tank and an aeration system were constructed.
