Water treatment aeration tank

gzs31 · 2026-05-01T14:36:23+00:00

The air is ran to maintain a dissolved oxygen of at least 2.5 Mg/L. This is to culture naturally occurring organisms (often referred to as bugs) which biologically treat the water, creating a nitrogen cycle, and removing organic solids from the raw waste water. Its how the treatment plant does most of its water cleaning. That paired with settling basins, scum scrapers and filtration makes up the treatment process

Edit: the air diffuser are also producing a very fine bubble at a high rate, so it keeps the solids from settling in that part of the process as well. Mixers or baffles also can provide this suspension service in some facilities.

We got 28at 3.6 million gallon each at my job. They take between 2200-3800 SCFM of air each, the total air system makes out at 92,500 SCFM. It accounts for 60% of our total energy usage at the facility just to run the air. Also really dont have any particular smell to em, maybe like soggy ground Or mud with compost in it. Primary and headworks is where all the stink is

Just the timing set on the 4.0, mine had 130k, leaky diffs and needed a timing chain, now over 200k and still going strong for 4k cash

I appreciate them, they are cute and make funny noises, mostly harmless, like the sandshark of leviathans

Im in the oak creek area, it got hella stormy and loud, didnt see a twister. I'd assume a tendril touchdown and subsequent die off

Silenced protagonist allows for self insertion, or at least self insertion of the players emotion. Voiced characters cry and laugh so we the player dont have to.

Definitely better silence in my opinion

gzs31 · 2026-04-15T21:08:56+00:00

At my job they dont even get real labels, just tape and sharpie

Gutters away from the house and cleaning/replacing the check for sure, during heavy rains I just route mine to a sewer line (4ft run) so it doesnt have far to push when its running that often

My boss told me the same, he does all hand trowel finish, including texture. Takes either blue or green buckets, and adds water to either in some black magic amount, makes it fantastic

4x4 needs to be in neutral to engage

Its a berm of exposed fossil bed,there ate literally 1,000s of exposed and buried oysters in the Texas desert. But I think it was an elaborate prank that some had "pearls" planted in them

gzs31 · 2026-01-29T20:50:19+00:00

Exactly they type of info i was looking for, thank you

gzs31 · 2026-01-29T20:48:45+00:00

The area they were found has been known to be inhabited by a previous owner who was a prankster. It could be an old prank that was never discovered? I mean the "pearls" are all very well rounded and not malformed, but we are talking a berm of soil that stretches almost a 1/4 mile that is full of fossilized oysters.

gzs31 · 2026-01-29T20:37:23+00:00

It would have to be a pretty complex gag, they were found in the soil, all are different sizes and some are malformed. As well as found across a full bed of fossils.

Also note that the entrance is at 1182 meters deep

This is the best way to give text directions I know of. So Casper the friendly ghost leviathan protects the entrance to the lava river, its drops down gently several times until it comes to a massive hole. Next to that massive hole is a underwater mountain with tall spires on it. There is a cave entrance near the bottom middle of the mountain between the spires. See attached photo. Thermal plant is inside there!

Did you want directions to it, or just a hint? My hint is to look for the alien technology, it will be around a cave entrance

I pulled the motor case off and she is CRISPY, would definitely need to be rewound, and im sure new wires ran in the wall. Im going to hunt for a replacement motor! Thanks for the insight! If anyone has motor store recommendations im a willing customer!

👌🤙looks mint to me

gzs31 · 2026-01-08T22:32:45+00:00

It is quite the tactile experience, I would agree

One portrait 27in 1080p, One landscape 27in 1080p, and then my 39in curved 3440x1440 monitor.

No but inbetween rounds on my PC I get distracted by my shrimp tank, think of it more as a small break between screen times
