This technology is very appropriate at sewage treatment plants as from 40 to 60%
of the annual budget is going for electric ower cost.

The purpose of mixing with the activated sludge process is to bring the aerobic
microbes, the organics of the sewage and oxygen together throughout the entire
volume of the reactor tank.

The power cost savings of buoyancy and gravity mixing makes it possible to make
use of high purity oxygen (HPO) for the process. Air has about 21% oxygen. HPO
produced at 90% purity is economical to produce.

On September 11, 2003, Carlos Marin of IBWC authorized us to make a test run at the
Border Plant with our technology. We had excellent results. After 2 hours of
treatment the liquid portion, after the remaining solids settled (the portion that would go to the ocean), had suspended solids of 8 mg/L (similar unit as PPM) and a BOD of 17 mg/L.
Both of these are far below the 30 mg/L figure for ocean discharge.

With our technology it is possible to use the existing primary clarifiers as final
clarifiers without spending acent ot modify them.

We have estimated that at present construction costs, we can provide secondary
treatment to the 25 million gallons per day(MGD)throughput flow for less than
$20 million dollars. Parallel facilties can be constructed to bring another 25 MGD
on line at the Border Plant.

My first hands-on sewage treatment experience occured about 50 years ago when I had
to contend with the wastes from a 400-head-per-day beef packing company.

We have advocated spending much less money and in fact has filed complaints about existing contractors who work on maintaining existing sewage collector systems to actually do their job (they are now cleaning up these collector systems much better). These are issues to solve that actually do not benefit from huge wastes of taxpayer dollars. The money can be spent on small projects that actually solve the problem.

Our community is fighting hard against this project. Bajagua threatened Wildcoast with a lawsuit if we did not “cooperate” with them. Our Clean Water Now section of our website http://www.wildcoast.net has all of our info about our campaign to clean up the border and battle Bajagua.

And finally –the people who are getting sick from the sewage besides surfers, miitary families, fishermen and just plain old members of my community ( because Bajagua has blocked efforts to clean up this mess (that does not involve them getting a no bid contract)

–US Border Patrol officers and US NAVY SEALS who train just north of the border.

I haven’t done this in a while so I figured it’s passed due.

Lots of good stuff going on….

I have ‘publicly disclosed’ my ‘years proven’ method of biologically treating water borne biological material, (including sewerage from Tijuana), without building any plant construction, or using any chemicals!
It is such a simple idea, that I’m “not ever” considering filing a US patent!

I describe my method as Soft Pipe Biological Water Filter, or SPBWF.

How it works: “Most people”, (including you!) have walked within a clear flowing creek, & (if you can recall), having ever picked up a pebble from ‘said clear flowing creek’, said pebble felt slimy!

That ‘slim’ is in reality ‘microscopic bacteria’ that survives on consuming said passing biological material from said creek!
I have penned ah’ “professional sound” BLIP: “Within a Waste Water environment, naturally occurring micro organisms are known to attach themselves to any reasonably firm surface such as gravel.”

Upon request, I would provide ‘gratis commercial quality’ shop drawings! &, I would consult for coffee! (The method will work within existing sewerage systems!)
Regards, & May God continue 2 bless!
Sincere as hell, Rick W. White
