Chapter 6 Evaluation of Combined Heat and Power Technologies for Wastewater Treatment Facilities 6.2 Joint Water Pollution Control Plant Carson, California The Joint Water Pollution Control Plant (JWPCP) is a wastewater treatment facility, owned and operated by the Los Angeles County Sanitation District (LACSD). The JWPCP currently treats average daily flows of about 300 million gallons per day (mgd) with both primary and secondary treatment. Sewage sludge is anaerobically digested in 24 digesters, each with a volume of approximately 3.75 million gallons. Anaerobic digester gas is used to fuel the facility’s combined cycle power plant, which was completed in 1985 at a total project cost of $45 million. Figure 6-1. Solar Turbines Mars90 Combustion Gas Turbine at the JWPCP The combined cycle power plant consists of three Solar Turbines Mars90 combustion turbines and one Moog steam turbine, equipped with an Ideal generator. Two combustion turbines operate continuously with one unit in standby. Since their installation, the turbines have regularly achieved uptime rates in excess of 97 percent. In April 2008 the steam turbine-driven generator failed. Since the time of the generator failure the facility has continued to operate the combustion turbines as simple cycle. Efforts are underway to upgrade the steam turbine/generator system and once again operate the power plant as a combined cycle. 6-3
