Pepsi Howell Pepsi Howell • Pepsi Production Facility in Howell, MI – Production began in 1969 – Produce: • 12oz Cans • 16.9oz • 20oz • 1L • 2L • Fountain Syrup 2

Pepsi Howell • Pepsi Production Facility in Howell, MI – Produce 30 Million Cases/Year – 335,000 Square Feet Warehouse – Local Sales to Howell – Transport throughout Michigan Pepsi Howell 3

Pepsi Howell Can Line Filler – 1600 cans/minute 4

Can Line Packer – 12pk History • Why Pretreatment System – BOD Loading • Spikes in excess of 8,000 mg/L – Phosphorus • As high as 50 mg/L – Low pH • Acidic products, pH below 5 – Fluctuations Throughout the Day • High Sugar Days • Low Flow during Plant Downtime • High Flow during Production • Chemical Flow during Night 5

History • Constraints – Lack of Land Space – High Priority on “Clean” Effluent – Fluctuations in Flow from Production Facility • Initial Attempts – High BOD Capture for Slow-Release – Reduction of Waste Streams MBR Installation • Membrane System Installed – Maintain Healthy Biomass to Consume ‘sugar’ – Small Footprint – Very Clean Discharge • What is it? – Many Small Membranes to Filter Out Clean Water – Hollow Fiber Tubes with Nominal Pore Size of 0.04µm 6

MBR Installation • Overall System – Two Lift Stations – Equalization Basin – Aeration Basin (Digester) – Membrane Cassettes – Belt Press – Design flow rate 160,000 gallons per day, 220,000 gal. max MBR System EQ 7

Permeate Flow to City of Howell Challenges • Fragile Sludge • Fluctuations in Sugar Loading and Plant Flow • Solids Removal • High Oxygen Requirement 17

Challenges: Fragile Sludge Started with Feed-Back Control – To ensure healthy biomass 100:5:1 ratio required (Carbon/Nitrogen/Phosphorus) – Phosphorus needs met with flow characteristics – Aqueous Ammonia added to Equalization Basin based on TOC Anaylzer results Challenges: Fragile Sludge TOC Analyzer – Real time analysis of Total Organic Carbon of Equalization Basin • Total Organic Carbon: Amount of carbon bound in an organic compound and is often used as an indicator of water quality • Rapid and accurate alternative to COD (chemical oxygen demand) – Programming • Dose Aqueous Ammonia as TOC increases • Challenges: • Analyzer requires large amount of maintenance • Expensive to maintain • Cannot react quickly to large and quick increases of TOC 18

Challenges: Fluctuations in Sugar Loading and Plant Flow Fluctuations – Plant runs 16-20 hours per day of various sugar and non sugar products – During off hours, cleaning is completed with large amounts of water and chemicals – Weekends with no plant production = no sugar for biology for 2+ days • Challenges: • Constant awareness of sugar loading • Addition of sugar during periods of plant downtime • Minimal sugar = death of biology Challenges: Solids Removal Filter press upgrade Spring 2008 – Double belt press – Press wash water uses system water (reducing loading, increasing efficiency) – Change in polymer (custom blended) and Custom feed equipment built May 2008 – Solids exiting press transitioned from 5-6% up to 10-13% and have reached 14-17% – Flow across press has moved from 8-10 gpm to 30-50 gpm and now runs at 90-110 gpm. – Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids (MLSS) dropping to desired levels of 7000-9000 ppm • Challenges: – Expensive to haul away solids – Currently solids are not being recycled – looking into an alternative use for the solids 19

Challenges: High Oxygen Requirement Aeration Upgrade – Two 150 HP blower motors running continuously (previously one 100HP blower) – Electrical upgrade to support blowers Increased Testing – TOC/COD, NH3, permeate testing – Automatic pH control – CST (Capillary Suction Time) monitoring CST and associated permeability 20
