Representative Projects

Secondary Wastewater Treatment Plant for Stream Discharge
Chadds Ford, PA

Advanced GeoServices professionals designed the initial 50,000 gpd activated sludge wastewater treatment plant, prepared planning documents and secured regulatory approvals for stream discharge of the effluent. Engineering services to expand the facility to 100,000 gpd for the planned 276 housing units and a shopping center were also provided.
     
Surface water sampling of potential impacted groundwater discharge location Tertiary Wastewater Plant and Subsurface Disposal System
Kennett Township, PA

This 136-unit residential community needed PADEP approval for a 50,000 gpd tertiary denitrification wastewater treatment plant, duplex dosing pump station and two 16,800-square-foot infiltration beds for disposing of the tertiary effluent. Advanced GeoServices personnel provided engineering services and assisted the client in securing construction bids for the plant and infiltration beds, inspected the construction of the beds and plant, secured a temporary pump and haul permit for the client and  provided plant start-up services and operational services for the first year of operation.
     
Odor Control Project
Phoenixville, PA

Advanced GeoServices personnel designed this 8-mgd treatment plant, which included the influent chamber, two Parshall flumes, a flow splitter chamber, the center well and effluent launders of two 80-foot diameter clarifiers and clarifier effluent splitter chamber. The air is drawn from these covered areas by two 60-hp, positive displacement blowers and is discharged to two fine bubber air diffuser systems located in the two mechanically aerated activated sludge basins for biological treatment.
     
Inactive smelter site at time of investigation   Existing Community System Design, Repair, Regulatory Approval
West Whiteland Township, PA

Advanced GeoServices personnel conducted soil investigations with the Chester County Health Department (CCHD) to evaluate the reuse of the existing seepage bed site for new replacement beds. New pressure dosed sand mound beds were constructed on the site with CCHD and PADEP approval. A new 100,000 gpd treatment plant was engineered, approved and constructed to upgrade the quality of effluent discharged to the beds.
     
  Sewage Denitrification Treatment Plan Design, Regulatory Approval
East Fallowfield Township, PA

Advanced GeoServices professionals provided the engineering for a 9,500 gpd denitrification wastewater treatment system which will serve a 32-home subdivision and prepared the PADEP Part II Water Quality Permit application for the project. The treatment plant system includes a grinder pump station to transfer sewage to an SBR packaged treatment plant, sand filtration, disinfection and dosing pump station for 15,000 square feett of sand infiltration beds and trenches. A control building is provided to house airblower, sandfilters, disinfection system, electrical and instrumentation control and plant operator work station.
     
  Sewer System Repair and Upgrade, Regulatory Approvals for Upgrading Plant Rating and Construction Permit
Concord Township, PA

Advanced GeoServices personnel completed an infiltration/inflow investigation for approximately 17,000 lineal feet of sewer line and managed the repair to manholes and slip lining of 1000 feet of sewer line. The work has resulted in the reduction of approximately 20,000 gpd of groundwater and stormwater from the treatment plant. Engineering plans were also prepared to replace the existing influent pump station, install a new flow equalization tank, grit and screening equipment, replace existing positive air blowers and provide upgrades to existing piping and electrical systems to allow the plant to be re-rated from 54,000 gpd to 74,000 gpd.
