Download as PDF 15304 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 63 / Friday, April 3, 2009 / Notices efforts, evaluate membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology as a competitive alternate to conventional activated sludge system (aeration basin and clarifier). This will be done by conducting pilot scale testing of a MBR system to treat refinery wastewater alongside conventional biological treatment. This setup will allow a quality comparison to be conducted. Preferably, both normal conditions as well as various upset conditions will be evaluated. Simulated upset conditions to be considered may include oil & grease upsets and possibly pH swing, high organic or nitrogen loading, and excessive debris or other solids that could potentially foul membrane. Current plans are that effluent from the MER will be analyzed for potential recycle/reuse applications (e.g., cooling tower makeup). The project will attempt to determine if this wastewater treatment technology is comparable or superior in operability and effluent quality to conventional biological treatment. Information regarding participation in this venture may be obtained from: Mr. Ryan Couture; ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company; 3225 Gallows Road; Fairfax, VA 22037. Patricia A.
