HCTP is rated to treat up to 14-million gallons of wastewater per day and operates 24-hours per day, seven (7) days per week, and must comply with a wide variety of operational and plant discharge permits. The treatment process consists of screening, grit removal, clarification, aeration with nutrient removal, secondary clarification, multi-media filtration and disinfection.
