New Secondary Aerated Stabilization
Basins at the Moraine Division
WILLIAM M. LAING, Technical Superintendent
Moraine Mill
Kimberly-Clark Corporation
West Carrollton, Ohio
INTRODUCTION
The Moraine Mill of Kimberly-Clark Corporation in West Carrollton, Ohio
operates rather complete waste treatment facilities at a high level of efficiency.
This paper will describe these and some of the operating experiences encountered with the aerated stabilization basins, since they were first put into operation 16 months ago. The facilities, with a design capacity of 5.5 MGD provide primary clarification, sludge dewatering, and secondary treatment in two
aerated stabilization basins.
MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS
The mill is located on the southern edge of the Greater Dayton Area --in
West Carrollton. It is a two machine operation -- one of the three mills which
comprise the business paper group of Kimberly-Clark. Products include a wide
range of sulphite business papers -- envelope, index, bristol, bond, mimeo, duplicator, ledger and offset --all uncoated grades. Production amounts to 280
tons/day. A secondary fiber pulp mill forms an integral part of the operation.
High grades of bleached, uncoated, groundwood-free waste paper are deinked and
decolored. Bleaching consists of one stage -- hypochlorite. Production of secondary fiber amounts to approximately 125 tons/day.
RECEIVING STREAM
Fresh water for all operations is obtained from deep wells. Discharge from
the waste treatment plant is into the Great Miami River, which runs for 175 miles
through the southwest section of Ohio. Serving a total drainage area of 5,400
square miles, the Miami joins the Ohio River just downstream from Cincinnati,
near the Indiana border.
The Miami does not receive heavy industrial and municipal loads until it
flows through the highly industrialized area which extends from Dayton to Cincinnati. River flow at West Carrollton varies from springtime levels in the order
of 15, 000 cfs or more, to low-flow summer conditions of 280 cfs or less.
Discharge to the river is regulated by standards established by the Ohio Water
Pollution Control Board. Our annually renewable permit requires us, in addition
to meeting general criteria, to effect an 85 per cent reduction of an assigned
