Peristaltic Hose Pumps Address Plant’s Hypochlorite Metering Requirements


Columbus, Ohio’s Jackson Pike Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) uses seasonal disinfection. Located in a highly industrial/residential area, the plant has a design treatment capacity of 68 mgd and a peak treatment capacity of 110 mgd.

The city of Columbus has operated a treatment works at the Jackson Pike site since the 1910s. The activated sludge treatment plant was commissioned in 1937, when chlorine gas was used to treat the wastewater.  Although this method worked well, the city decided to change disinfection treatment methods and started using a sodium hypochlorite feed system in 2000.
