Triple Point News: District of Hope, British Columbia, Selects MARS Aeration

The Pollution Control Facility in Hope, British Columbia, was recently upgraded with MARS aeration. Engineered by True Consulting in Kamloops, the project involved desludging the 1 MGD three-cell facility and replacing the old aeration equipment with a MARS system.

The contractor praised the ease of installation, calling it the easiest aeration job he has ever done. After a month of operation, effluent BOD is 11 mg/L, well under their 30 mg/L limit.
