1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
This USFilter LO/PROTM Odor Control System was custom-designed and built for the
Estrella WRP by RJ Environmental Products Group of San Diego, California. The system is
designed to remove hydrogen sulfide (H2S) odors from wastewater operations by contacting the
gas stream with a dilute solution of caustic and bleach.
This Operation and Maintenance Manual presents the operating instructions and
background information needed to safely and reliably operate the odor control system. Do not
attempt to operate the system until the operating principles and procedures presented in
this Manual are fully understood. If there are any questions about the instructions or operating
procedures outlined in this Manual please contact RJ Environmental Products at (619) 455-7688.
It is our commitment that operation and maintenance personnel at the plant thoroughly
understand and follow the procedures in this Manual. Failure to do so could result in a decline in
system performance and potentially costly and dangerous mistakes.

1.2 SAFETY
The USFilter LO/PROTM odor control system has been designed to provide safe and
reliable service. However, as with all industrial equipment, it is potentially dangerous if operated
or maintained improperly. Corrosive chemicals are stored and used in the scrubber system. The
scrubber system operates on 480 volt power, and uses powerful rotating equipment (pumps and
fans), as well as sensitive and critical electronic components and gauges. No one should attempt
to operate or perform maintenance on the scrubber system equipment unless they have
been specifically trained to do so, and have read and understand the processes and
operating procedures described in this Operation and Maintenance Manual. Failure to take
appropriate safety precautions, or improper operation of the scrubber system could result in
serious injury to personnel, damage to equipment and harm to the environment.
Safety is ultimately the responsibility of the people operating and maintaining the
equipment. They need to be familiar with both the operation of the odor control system, and how
the system interfaces with plant processes and services. In addition to the procedures in this
Manual, the plant Health and Safety officer should be consulted, and all plant health and
safety procedures and policies, as well as all applicable federal and local safety codes and,
regulations must be followed.
RJ Environmental Products engineers should be consulted before making any
modifications to the system installation, controls or other components. Improper
modifications and/or substitutions of parts can affect the system performance and can lead to
costly repairs and unnecessary hazards.
Typical Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for the hazardous chemicals used in this
system are presented in Section 6 of this Manual for general reference. These MSDS documents
are provided for general information. The specific MSDS information provided by your chemical
supplier may be different and should be followed. The MSDS presents information regarding
associated health risks, recommended personal protective clothing and safety gear, first aid
procedures, storage and handling precautions, and spill or leak cleanup and disposal practices.
MSDS recommendations should be read, thoroughly understood, and followed.

Particular care should be taken when working with or around the following system components
which contain the most concentrated solutions of corrosive chemicals:
 Chemical metering pumps and associated piping, tubing and fittings
 Chemical storage tanks and associated piping, tubing and fittings
 System recirculation pumps
1.2.1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The following list of recommended safety precautions is presented as a place to start. This
list is not intended to be comprehensive, and should be reviewed with your plant Health and
Safety Officer, and updated by plant personnel to be consistent with the plant health and safety
program and all applicable codes and regulations.
1. Keep work areas clean. Spills and leaks should be cleaned up immediately to
prevent accidental contact with corrosive chemicals. A clean work area is a much
safer area.
2. The system must be shut down and power turned off prior to initiating repairs of
any kind. Adhere to all electrical lockout (tagging) procedures to avoid accidental
starting of equipment. Be aware that even when the main disconnect switch on the
control panel is OFF, the leads up to this switch are still HOT unless the plant power
supplying the control panel has been shut off.
3. Keep all equipment guards in place. If removed to service the equipment, make
certain the guards are replaced properly.
4. Locate and test the nearest emergency shower and eyewash stations prior to
operating or working on the system components.
5. Wear eye and face protection around rotating and pumping equipment and
whenever working around or handling chemicals. Be especially cautious of
splashing when disconnecting piping, valves and fittings.
6. Wear ear protection as necessary.
7. Wear appropriate personal protective clothing and safety gear. Non-skid

footwear is recommended. Note that concentrated caustic will eat through leather
quickly. Rubber boots should be worn if there is a spill.
8. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry which could be caught in machinery.

9. Wear an appropriate respirator for the chemicals expected. Toxic vapors will
be present inside the chemical storage tanks. Hazardous process gases will be
present in the fan and associated ducting. Particular care should be taken between
the fan outlet and the scrubber where the process gases are under positive
pressure.
10. After working on equipment make certain that all tools and supplies have been
put away before energizing the system.
11. Read, understand and follow the recommendations in the Material Safety
Data Sheets for all hazardous materials (see Section 6).
12. Gaskets must be used in all flanged connections. Inspect and clean or replace
gaskets as necessary, and tighten fasteners securely to assure a proper seal.
13. Follow all applicable OSHA standards and guidelines, and electrical codes
including those relating to working in confined spaces, working with 480 volt
electrical power, working around rotating machinery, and working with hazardous
chemicals.

1.4.1 LO/PRO™ Scrubber with Integral Sump The scrubber is rectangular in shape
and consists of three odor absorption stages. The vessel is made of fiberglass reinforced plastic
(FRP) and is fabricated in accordance with ASTM 4097 & PS15-69 standards. The absorption
stages are filled with a polypropylene packing media manufactured by Lantec Products. Details of
the packing media are presented in Section 7. The fiberglass is coated on the internal
surfaces of the scrubber with a vinyl ester resin, manufactured by Ashland Chemical. This resin
provides superior protection against corrosion from the chemicals used and produced in the
process. The scrubber is custom fabricated for each installation and is provided with ports for pH,
ORP and liquid level monitoring, anchor lugs, access manways, drains, overflows, pump suction
and discharge fittings, and gas inlet and outlet fittings. The following table shows the overall
dimensions of the scrubber:

Length: 16'-3"
Width: 9'-0"
Height: 11'-9"
1.4.2 Recirculation Pumps (see Section 8):

The recirculation pumps move the scrubbing liquid from the sump to the spray nozzles at
the top of the scrubber. Two recirculation pumps are used: one for Stage 1, and one for Stages 2
& 3. The specifications for the pumps are as follow:
Stage 1 Stage 2/3

1.4.5 Local Control Panel (see Section 11):

The odor control scrubber includes a NEMA 4X control panel. Please refer to Section 11
of this Operation and Maintenance Manual for details. The control panel has been built in
accordance with Federal Standard UL-508 and has been tested, certified and labeled by ETL
Testing Laboratories. As a safety feature the control panel door cannot be opened unless the
main system disconnect switch is OFF. The drawings in Section 11 present the control panel
layout, wiring and logic diagrams.
1.4.6 Other Instrumentation

The odor control system is provided with pressure gauges on each recirculation line. The
normal pump discharge pressure should be 10 - 15 psig. Higher pressure may be an indication of
a plugged nozzle or other flow restriction. Lower pressure may indicate an internal piping leak.
Each gauge assembly is fitted with a ball valve. The purpose of these valves is to protect the
flexible tubing connected to the pressure gauge. The valves should normally be closed. When
making a pressure reading, the valves should be opened temporarily to make the readings, then
closed again to ensure the flexible tubing does not break during operation.
Differential pressure gauges are provided for the scrubber pressure drop and mist
eliminator pressure drop. Normal operating ranges are 4.0” w.c. to 5.0” w.c. through the
scrubber and 0.1” w.c. to 0.2” w.c. for the mist eliminator. Higher differential pressures may
indicate that the scrubber needs cleaning. Lower pressure differentials may indicate an air flow
restriction or fan problem. Each differential pressure gauge is provided with two ball valves

beneath the gauge. The purpose of these valves is to keep moisture from getting into the gauge.
The valves should normally be open. When making a differential pressure reading, the valves
should be closed temporarily to make the readings, then opened again to allow outside air to fill
the gauge and keep it dry.
Each sump is provided with a sight glass and overflow drain piping. During normal
operations, there should be constant flow out of the overflow drain of stage 1. The top of the
sight glasses should always be open to the atmosphere to prevent siphoning out the overflow
drain.
A stack air sample pipe is provided so the exhaust air can be sampled at ground level. A
ball valve is provided at the sampling end of this pipe.
1.5 System Description:

The process and instrumentation diagram of the odor control system is shown in Section
12. The general arrangement drawing in Section 13 shows the physical arrangement of the
scrubber and components. To better understand how the system process works, a step by step
description of the LO/PROTM odor control system follows.
An air exhaust fan pulls foul odorous air from the process sources through a network of
FRP ducting and volume control dampers and passes it through the scrubber system. The foul air
enters Stage 1 (pre-treatment) where it contacts a dilute solution of the scrubbing chemicals. The
scrubbing liquid is sprayed over the packing at the top of the scrubber, and allowed to fall slowly
through the packing as it contacts and reacts with the odorous gases in the air stream.
Under alkaline conditions (pH>9) and in the presence of excess sodium hypochlorite,
hydrogen sulfide is oxidized to sulfuric acid, which is then neutralized by the sodium hydroxide to
form salt and sodium sulfates. The basic chemical reaction is as follows:
4 NaOCl  2 NaOH  H2 S  4 NaCl  Na2 SO4  2 H2 O

In Stage 2 the process gases are contacted with the scrubber liquid supplied by the Stage 2
& 3 recirculation pump and the Stage 2 & 3 NaOH and the NaOCl metering pumps. A final
"polishing" takes place in Stage 3 where any odorous gases remaining in the air stream are
removed to achieve the required removal efficiency.

The chemical concentration in the sumps is maintained at pre-set pH and ORP levels by
controlling the amount of NaOH injected into the first stage and the amount of NaOH and NaOCl
injected into the second and third stages. The pH and ORP probes send signals to the pH and
ORP PID controllers, which control the chemical injection rate to the sumps. The controllers
send a 4-20 mA signal to the DC converters in the electrical control panel, which is relayed to the
metering pumps. The variable speed motor changes speed depending on the signal voltage and
thus the controllers determine the amount of chemical that is pumped into the scrubber.
Overflows are used at the Stages 2 & 3 sump and at the Stage 1 sump to control the liquid
level in the sump and the liquid flow between scrubber stages. The overflows provide two
functions:
1) they allow chemical salts formed in the neutralization process to be discharged from
the system, and thereby limit the buildup and eventual deposition of salts inside the
scrubber; and
2) they maximize chemical utilization by supplying unreacted chemicals to Stage 1 by
overflowing them from Stage 2/3 to Stage 1 through an internal overflow.
Makeup water is metered through a manual needle valve and rotameter into the Stage 2/3 sump
to control the overflow rate.
A low level alarm is provided for each of the sumps. The alarm is used to protect the liquid
recirculation pumps, which can be damaged if run dry. The alarm is activated by a float switch
that illuminates a lamp on the electrical control panel and in turn shuts off that sump’s
recirculation pump.

1.6 System Alarms
Push to test, labeled amber lamps are provided for the following alarms on the electrical control
panel and should be tested regularly for proper functioning.

2. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This section describes how to operate the odor control scrubber system. Please read the
following instructions and follow all procedures when operating the system.
2.1 Installation:
The odor control scrubber is delivered to the owner with all internal components installed.
If for any reason internal components need to be removed, please contact USF/RJE to obtain
specific instructions.
2.2 Start-Up Procedure:

The odor control system may be operated in either the Manual (HAND) mode or in the
Automatic (AUTO) mode. The Manual mode allows each component to be operated separately,
and is designed to be used for component testing and maintenance. The Automatic mode is the
normal operating mode for the system.
2.2.1 Manual (HAND)

1. Turn all switches at the Scrubber Control Panel to the OFF position.
2. Ensure that the sump drain valves are closed.
3. Open the makeup water valve and fill the scrubber with clean water until the
overflow piping begins to drain water. Once the unit is full, adjust the flow to about
1 gpm. This will be the normal operating drain flow. CAUTION: Verify that the
sump LOW LEVEL STAGE 1 and LOW LEVEL STAGES 2&3 alarm lamps are
not illuminated before proceeding. Severe damage to the recirculation pumps may
occur if they are permitted to run with a low sump level. Turn the recirculation
pump switches (RECIRC. PUMP STAGE 1 and RECIRC. PUMP STAGES
2&3) to the HAND position. The pumps should activate, and the discharge pressure
gauges should indicate a pressure of approximately 10-15 psig.
5. Turn the fan switch (FAN) to the HAND position. The fan should activate.
6. Ensure that all valves in the chemical feed lines are open and clear of obstructions to
allow the metering pumps to draw chemicals from the chemical storage tanks. Verify

that there is an adequate supply of chemicals in the storage tanks. Turn the NaOH
PUMP STAGE 1, NaOH PUMP STAGE 2/3 and NaOCl METERING PUMP
STAGE 2/3 switches to the HAND position. The metering pumps should now be
operating and feeding chemicals into the scrubber sumps. Refer to Sections 9 and
12 for operating instructions for the metering pumps and controllers.
7. Set the ORP controller and pH controller set points as described in Section 12.
2.2.2 Automatic Startup (AUTO):

1. Turn all switches at the Scrubber Control Panel to the OFF position.
2. Ensure that all sump drain valves are closed.
3. If not already filled, open the makeup water valve and fill the scrubber sump with clean
water until the overflow piping begins to drain water. Once the unit is full, adjust the
flow to about 1 gpm. This will be the normal operating drain flow. CAUTION:
Verify that the sump LOW LEVEL STAGE 1 and LOW LEVEL STAGES 2&3
alarm lamps are not illuminated before proceeding. Severe damage to the recirculation
pumps may occur if they are permitted to run with a low sump level.
4. Turn the FAN and RECIRC. PUMP STAGE 1 and RECIRC. PUMP STAGES
2&3 switches to the AUTO position.
5. Ensure that all valves in the chemical feed lines are open and clear of obstructions to
allow the metering pumps to draw chemicals from the chemical storage tanks. Turn
the NaOH PUMP STAGE 1, NaOH PUMP STAGE 2/3 and NaOCl METERING
PUMP STAGE 2/3 switches to the AUTO position.
6. Turn the system switch to HAND or AUTO. In AUTO the system will operate when
an external start signal is received. If the system switch is turned to the HAND
position the system will start and continue to run automatically until shut down
manually. The pH and ORP of the scrubber liquid will automatically be regulated by
the controllers on the control panel face (once the controllers have been set up by
USF/RJE at the initial system start-up). All automatic safety features will be
operational.

2.3 Shut-Down Procedures
The system is normally shut down by turning OFF each switch individually. The
recommended shut-down procedure is as follows:
1. Turn OFF the chemical feed pump switches.
2. Turn OFF the scrubber fan switch.
3. Turn OFF the scrubber recirculation pump switches.
4. Shut all chemical supply valves to minimize accidental leaks or damage.
5. Turn OFF the system switch.
In an emergency, the entire scrubber system can be immediately shut down by turning OFF the
main system disconnect breaker.

3. OPERATING SET POINTS
This section describes what set points the system should run at and how to change those
set points to maximize system efficiency. The following table contains approximate values of set
points for similar applications.

3.1 System Operation Settings
The following section is intended to provide the operator with a better understanding of
the odor control system parameters to more closely optimize system effectiveness and minimize
operating costs. Many factors affect the scrubber system performance and optimum settings
including inlet concentrations, flow rates, water quality, and so on. Each installation will be
different and settings should be documented and adjusted as needed to optimize performance.
Optimal system operation means maintaining acceptable odor removal while minimizing
costs associated with chemical usage, water usage and maintenance. The operator should
consider the operation of the system during all times of the day and night, to ensure that the
system is set to handle peak loads that may occur when plant staff are not normally available.
3.1.1 pH Control: Stage 1

The pH of Stage 1 of the LO/PROTM odor control system is monitored and controlled to
maintain the pH in the proper range to promote the desired chemical reactions in Stage 1. The
scrubber solution pH is monitored continuously by the pH probe. The measured value is

compared to the set point, and the Stage 1 caustic metering pump is activated as necessary to
maintain the pH.
As hydrogen sulfide (H2S) reacts with the caustic (NaOH) and the bleach (NaOCl) that
has overflowed from Stages 2 & 3, the pH is driven lower. Caustic is added by the controller to
counteract this effect, and provide an alkaline condition (pH > 9), in which the solution is more
reactive. In general, a higher pH set point will result in higher H2S removal.
3.1.2 pH Control: Stages 2 & 3

The pH of the liquid in Stage 2 & 3 of the LO/PROTM odor control system is monitored
and controlled to maintain the pH in the proper range to promote the desired chemical reactions in
the scrubber. The scrubber solution pH is monitored continuously by the pH probe. The
measured value is compared to the set point, and the Stage 2 & 3 caustic metering pump is
activated as necessary to maintain the pH.
As hydrogen sulfide (H2S) reacts with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), the pH is driven
lower by the formation of sulfuric acid. Caustic (NaOH) is added to neutralize the acid and
provide an alkaline condition in which the NaOCl + H2S reaction is more effective. In general a
higher pH set point will result in better H2S removal. However running the set point too high can
result in excessive NaOH usage and quicker formation of sodium bicarbonates, which will lead to
scale build up on system parts such as piping or packing media, thereby requiring more frequent
acid cleaning of the system. A pH of 10 to 10.5 has been shown to work well in similar
applications.
3.1.3 ORP Control: Stages 2 & 3

The ORP of the liquid in Stages 2 and 3 of the LO/PROTM odor control system is
monitored and controlled to provide an appropriate level of oxidizing chemical (NaOCl) for the
reaction. The scrubber solution is monitored continuously by the ORP probe. The measured
value is compared to the set point and the NaOCl (sodium hypochlorite or bleach) metering pump
is activated as necessary to increase the ORP of the system.
NaOCl is a strong oxidizing agent, and is the primary reactant of the odor control system.
In general, the higher the ORP value, the better the H2S removal. However too high of a set

point may result in excessive chemical usage. The ORP reading should normally be set at about
600 mV.
The pH is held relatively constant under normal circumstances. However a rise in pH of

roughly 1.0 will lower the ORP reading by about 100 mV. More NaOCl will then be needed to
maintain the same ORP level. Similarly a drop in pH will cause the ORP level to increase. This
may be noticed if a caustic metering pump is shut down for some time, resulting in a lower pH
and a higher ORP reading.
The operator should also be aware that NaOCl solutions contain some NaOH as a
function of the method of manufacture. This may have an effect on the pH reading.
Under normal circumstances the effects of variations in pH and ORP levels will likely go
unnoticed by the operator. Nonetheless these concepts can be helpful in understanding the system
chemistry.
3.1.4 pH and ORP Set Points

As discussed above, higher pH and ORP settings result in better odor removal, but will
use more chemicals. While the actual settings must be left to the judgment of the operator, the
following information should be evaluated as a basis for making an informed decision:
1) Chemical usage records
2) Outlet H2S concentrations during peak loading
3) Inlet H2S levels during normal and peak loading periods
4) Ability of system to hold desired set points
As a starting point, we recommend that the odor control system be run at a pH = 10.0 and an
ORP = 600 mV. If higher H2S concentrations are experienced during the hot months, an
adjustment of the pH set point to 10.5 may be appropriate. Similarly the pH set point might be
lowered to 9.5 during particularly cold months to conserve chemical costs. When such
adjustments are made the operator should document the adjustments and the H2S concentrations,
then continue to monitor the operation closely.

3.2 Variations from Set points
The pH and ORP values are normally controlled to  0.2 and  50 mV respectively from
the set point values.
The following procedure can be used to check the variation from the set point. Press the
MEAS button on the pH controllers until the screen of the controller looks like this:
Var 10.00 pH
Set Pt 10.00 pH
Output 0.0 % AUTO
where Var = the actual pH value of the system at that exact moment (the process value),
Set Pt = the target reading for the pH value, and
Output = the percentage of the 4-20 mA signal range that the controller is sending to the
chemical metering pump.
For example, a low reading might look like:
Var 8.80 pH
Set Pt 10.00 pH
Output 100.0 % AUTO
and a high reading might look like:
Var 10.20 pH
Set Pt 10.00 pH
Output 0.0 % AUTO
A similar procedure can be used with the ORP controller where after pressing the MEAS
button, the screen should read:
Var 600 mV
Set Pt 600 mV
Output 0.0 % AUTO
where Var = the actual ORP value of the system at that exact moment (the process value),
Set Pt = the target reading for the pH value, and
Output = the percentage of the 4-20 mA signal range that the controller is sending to the
chemical metering pump.

An example low reading might be:
Var 450 mV
Set Pt 600 mV
Output 100.0 % AUTO
An example high reading might be:
Var 740 mV
Set Pt 600 mV
Output 0.0 % AUTO
The Output value will normally move up and down a certain amount in response to the
PID control of the system. Typically, what is happening is that the pH or ORP controller
remembers the time interval from the last point that the process value deviated from the set point
and how much chemical it had to instruct the metering pump to add to correct the process value.
The controller is automatically changing the Output before the process value is affected.
If the Output stays high for an extended period of time, (fifteen minutes or more) and the
Var reading does not increase, the flow rate of the metering pump associated with the controller
should be checked, using the calibration columns. If the metering pump is operating properly
there is probably a problem with the chemical feed system because the required chemical is not
getting into the system.
3.3 Changing the System Set points

To change the set points of either the pH or ORP controllers follow the procedures in
Section 12. A brief outline of the procedure is presented below:
1. On the appropriate controller press the CONFIG button on the controller face.
2. The PID OPERATION notation should be illuminated. If it is not, use the UP or
DOWN ARROWS to move the highlight to the PID OPERATION. Press ENTER.
3. Use the ARROWS to highlight the PID MODE. Press ENTER.
4. Use the ARROWS to highlight the SET PT. Press ENTER.
5. Use the ARROWS to change the set point of the system to the desired value. Press
ENTER.

6. Use the ARROWS to highlight SAVE & RETURN. Press ENTER.
7. To return to the main screen press the MEAS button on the controller face.
Note: If at any time the operator wants to exit the system configuration setting without changing
the configuration. Press the MEAS button. When the controller prompts you “Do you want to
save changes” highlight the NO using the ARROWS and press ENTER. This will return the
operator to the main display. Please refer to Section 12 for more information.
3.4 Calibration of the pH and ORP probes

The probes should be calibrated at least once a month in order to ensure proper operation
of the system. The following buffered calibration solutions are recommended:
For ORP: 200 mV solution (one point calibration)

For pH: 4.0 and 7.0 solutions (two point calibration)
Prior to calibration, clean the probes with a dilute Muriatic Acid solution. Use a toothbrush to
carefully remove excess scaling from the glass bulb. Use caution not to scratch the glass. Rinse
the probes and wait 30 minutes before calibrating. The following procedure can be used to
calibrate the probes. See Section 12 for more details.
1. Press the CAL button on the main display.
2. The controller will prompt what the operator wants to calibrate. If pH (ORP) is
highlighted, press ENTER. If pH (ORP) is not highlighted use the ARROWS to
highlight pH (ORP), press ENTER.
3. Ensure that the ARBITRARY BUFFER is highlighted and press ENTER.
4. HOLD should be highlighted by a blinking cursor; press ENTER.
5. Cursor highlights CONTINUE; press ENTER.
6. The controller will prompt “Is this sensor being calibrated for the first time?”. If the
answer is NO, use the ARROWS to highlight NO; press ENTER.
7. Cursor highlights CONTINUE; press ENTER.

8. The controller will prompt “Clean and rinse sensor, then place in first buffer.” Follow
these instructions and ensure that CONTINUE is highlighted; press ENTER.
9. The BUFFER VAL should be highlighted. Use > ARROW to ensure that the buffer
value matches that being used. Press ENTER.

3.5 Other Instrumentation
3.5.1 Recirculation Pump Pressure Gauges

The recirculation pump pressure gauges are provided to measure the liquid pressure at the
discharge of the pumps in order to provide a quick, visual indication that the pumps are working
properly. Each gauge is provided with a ball valve. The valves should normally be left closed to
protect the flexible tubing. To make a reading, simply open the ball valves, let the gauge needle
stabilize, record the value and then close the valve again. The recirculation pressure should be
around 10-15 psi. Actual recirculation pressure may vary slightly from one installation to another.
Pressure readings should be recorded daily in order to identify the normal operating level and
deviations from it.

3.5.2 Differential Pressure Gauges
The differential pressure gauges are used to provide an indication of changes in the air
flow through the scrubber which may be related to a system malfunction or the need for
maintenance. For example, an increase in the pressure drop may indicate solids buildup inside the
scrubber, while a decrease in the pressure drop may indicate an airflow leak. In either case the
change in pressure drop indicates that there is a potential problem and further investigation is
warranted. Separate differential pressure gauges are provided for the scrubber and for the mist
eliminator. Each gauge is provided with a ball valve on each leg. The valves should normally be
left open to prevent moisture buildup inside the gauges. To make a reading, simply close the ball
valves, let the gauge needle stabilize, record the value and then open the valve again. Normal
operating ranges are 4.0” w.c. to 5.0” w.c. across the scrubber and 0.1” w.c. to 0.2” w.c. across
the mist eliminator. Actual differential pressure may vary slightly from one installation to another.
Pressure readings should be recorded daily in order to identify the normal operating level and
deviations from it.
3.5.3 Makeup Water

Makeup water is added to force the continuous removal of spent liquids from the Stage 1
sump, and make up for any evaporation that may occur. The proper makeup water flow rate will
provide a balance between maximizing chemical utilization and minimizing salt buildup in the
scrubber liquid. A rate of one to two gallons per minute is typical, however the optimum setting
may vary for each system installation.
3.5.4 Sample Port

An air sample line is provided with a ball valve to facilitate collection of exhaust air
samples.

4. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
Periodic maintenance will ensure long and reliable system operation. This section includes
periodic maintenance checklists and Maintenance Summary Forms.
Daily Checklist
4.1.1 pH and ORP Reading

The pH and ORP readings should be checked and recorded daily. They are important to
verify that the system is getting an adequate supply of chemicals to react with the foul odors being
processed. If the readings are significantly different from the set points then there could be a
problem with the chemical feed system, or the probes could be dirty. Follow the procedure in
Section 12 for cleaning and routine maintenance of the probes. To verify the probes are reading
accurately, test them in an approved buffered calibration solution. Ensure that calibration
solutions are accurate by replacing them before their expiration date.
4.1.2 Pressure Readings

The pressure readings on the differential pressure gauges and the recirculation pressure
gauges should be made and recorded daily. If the differential pressure gauges begin reading high
over an extended period of time the packing may be starting to exhibit signs of solids buildup. If
this problem is caught early enough, it may be possible to reverse the solids buildup process by
increasing the makeup water flow rate. If solids buildup continues to worsen, an acid wash of the
system will be necessary. Refer to Section 4.6 for the acid wash procedures.
If the recirculation pressure is too high it is possible that the nozzles are becoming fouled.
This could result from solids in the solution, or from a foreign particle working its way into the
recirculation line. If this happens it will be necessary to open the system manway, inspect the
nozzles visually and clean them as needed.
If the recirculation pressure is low the most likely causes are either that the sump liquid
level is low, the pump intake is blocked, or that one of the nozzles has become loose or dislodged
from the recirculation line.

4.1.3 Sump Liquid Levels
The liquid levels should be checked visually at the sight glass and recorded to ensure that
the liquid level is high enough and that the liquid in the sump is overflowing from Stage 1.
Absence of overflow indicates the makeup water flow is being interrupted.
4.1.4 Makeup Water

Check the makeup water flow rate at the rotameter to verify that makeup water is being
provided at the correct rate.
4.1.5 Fan Operation

The fan should be observed daily for any unusual noises or vibrations in order to identify
potential problems. Please refer to Section 10 for detailed maintenance requirements and
procedures for the fan.
4.1.6 Chemical Storage Level

The chemical level in the NaOH and NaOCl storage tanks should be checked and recorded
daily, and the quantity of chemical used should be calculated. This allows the operator to
determine how much chemical is being used by the system, when to order more chemical, and the
times of the year that more chemical is required. It is also a good indicator of a problem with the
chemical feed system.
Note that the chemical supply of NaOCl and NaOH is critical to the proper operation of
the USFilter LO/PROTM odor control system. Any interruption in the supply of these chemicals
could result in unacceptable process odors.
4.1.7 Metering Pump Operation

Every day the metering pumps should be inspected to ensure that they are operating
properly. The liquid connections should be checked for leaks and proper operation of the motors
should be verified. If the ORP or pH values, or chemical storage tank levels indicate a possible
chemical feed problem, it may be necessary to remove and inspect the chemical feed lines to verify
that they are not obstructed.
4.2 MONTHLY CHECKLIST
4.2.1 Calibrate the pH and ORP Probes
The pH and ORP probes should be calibrated at least once a month against standard
solutions to ensure their accuracy. A checklist and procedure for calibration of the probes is
presented in Section 12. Ensure that calibration solutions are accurate by replacing them before
their expiration date. If the probes do not hold calibration refer to the cleaning procedures and
other maintenance procedures in Section 12.
4.2.2 Check Fan Belt

It is important to check the fan belts at least once a month. Stop the fan and remove the
fan weather cover to visually inspect the belts. If they are worn down or the material appears
“cracked” they need to be replaced. Worn belts, if not replaced, could snap at any time and leave
the system inoperative.
4.2.3 Check Inlet and Outlet H2S Concentrations

If suitable analyzers are available, a quick check of the inlet and outlet H2S concentrations
can provide useful data to document that the system is working properly. The removal efficiency
should be greater than 99%. Alternatively colorimetric indicator tubes can be used at the
scrubber exhaust stack to obtain a rough measure of the outlet H2S concentration.
4.2.4 Check Airflow

This is a good indicator that the fan is operating properly. The airflow should be within +
10% of the system design airflow rate. The air flow rate (ft3/min) can be determined by
measuring the air velocity (ft/min) using a Pitot tube or other air velocity instrument and
multiplying by the cross sectional area (ft2) at the location where the velocity was measured.
4.2.5 Check Recirculation Pump Operation

The pumps should be inspected to determine that they are not operating with excessive
vibration or unusual noise.
4.3 SEMI-ANNUAL CHECKLIST
At least twice a year the manways should be removed and the scrubber internals inspected.
The internals include the packing, nozzles, sump, mist eliminator, and recirculation pumps. The
system is equipped with manways to allow access to every section of the system. A flashlight
should be used in the sump of the system to inspect the walls for solids buildup and also to inspect
the condition of the recirculation pumps. The packing should be inspected to ensure that it is free
of solids build-up and looks clean. The nozzles should also be removed from the recirculation
piping and inspected for solids build-up. The mist eliminator should be checked to ensure that
there is no excessive scaling, which would adversely affect its performance.
If solid deposits are apparent in the packing and other scrubber components an acid wash
should be performed. Please refer to Section 4.5 for the acid washing procedure.
4.4 GREASING FAN AND PUMP BEARINGS

The bearings on the recirculation pumps and exhaust fan should be lubricated with a frequency
according to the manufacturer’s specifications. More frequent lubrication could cause damage to the
bearing seals. Less frequent lubrication could cause severe damage to the shaft or bearings. Refer to
the Maintenance Summary Forms in Section 4.6. Detailed manufacturer’s information is in Section 8
(pump) and Section 10 (fan).
4.5 OPERATIONS LOG

It is recommended that an operations log be kept to record daily, monthly and annual checklist
results. This information will be valuable as a record of maintenance activities and as a means of
documenting observations that may be useful in preventing or troubleshooting future problems. The
following sample daily operations log may be used as a guideline for the operations log.

4.7 ACID CLEANING OF PACKING MEDIA
The packing and the mist eliminator should be inspected regularly for signs of fouling and
plugging. Fouling occurs because of the collection of deposits such as iron, carbonate, and
bacteria that have accumulated on the packing and in the mist eliminator. Cleaning can be done
with a chemical acid bath. If an acid cleaning of the media is necessary, the following procedure
is recommended. Note that the packing media should not be allowed to dry when dirty. It may
not be possible to clean packing effectively once the solids have dried.
1. Turn off the scrubber fan, the chemical feed pumps, and the recirculation pumps.
2. Drain both scrubber sumps.
3. Fill the scrubber with fresh water.
4. Turn on the scrubber pumps and let them run for one hour.
5. Operate all metering pumps with water at full capacity for one-half hour.
6. Drain both scrubber sumps.
7. Fill the scrubber with clean water.
8. Turn on the scrubber pumps.
9. Inject muriatic acid into the recirculating lines until the pH is about 3 (approximately
5 to 10 gallons of acid).
10. Run the scrubber for about 2 hours.
11. Repeat steps 2 through 8 two times, running the scrubber about 30 minutes each
time.
12. Inspect the packing and scrubber internals. If clean, you may start the scrubber per
the Startup Procedure (Section 2.2). If the packing is still dirty, repeat the acid wash
procedure. If repeated acid washes do not remove the solids, the packing media
may need to be replaced.

4.8 REMOVAL OF PACKING MEDIA
The packing can be removed and cleaned if fouling is permitted to get excessive. The
packing should not be allowed to dry because dry, solid deposits are much more difficult to
remove. The packing may be removed using the following procedure:
1. Turn off the scrubber fan, the chemical feed systems, and the scrubber pumps.
2. Drain the scrubber sumps.
3. Fill the scrubber with fresh water.
4. Turn on the scrubber pumps and let them run for about an hour.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for two additional times. The main objective of these
procedures is to rinse the chemicals off the packing so that it can be handled safely.
6. Drain the scrubber.
7. Open the top covers and scoop out the packing and put them in a box. A workman
can go inside the scrubber to remove the packing. When this is necessary, the
workman must wear protective clothing and use plywood to distribute his weight
over as large an area as possible. Never exert a concentrated load onto a few of the
individual pieces.
4.9 INSTALLATION OF PACKING MEDIA

1. Remove the manways on the top of the scrubber.
2. Distribute packing pieces in a random manner and never let them free fall more than
four (4) feet. In cold weather (temperature below 45°F), particular care must be
taken in handling and installing the plastic packing since the ductility of the plastic
resin will be greatly reduced. Make sure the packing fills all the space in the packed
bed section. Be careful not to leave any foreign materials in the packed bed section.
