Presentation Transcript

  1. Assessment of U.S. Corps Aerators in the San Joaquin River for the Port of Stockton September 2004 Jones & Stokes Russ Brown, Tom Trexler, Megan Robinson

  2. Goals/Objectives • Determine the current level of performance of both aerators • Estimate the oxygen loads from the aerators and the oxygen transfer efficiency • Compare aerator performance to release of oxygen gas from jets and different aerator device (Biox Hose)

  3. View of Aerator Dock

  4. Measurement Efforts • Measurements in Front of North Jets while Operating Both Aerators • Measurements in Front of South Jets while using Oxygen Gas

  5. Measurements and Estimations • Measured Velocity and DO concentrations of upwelling and/or flow-away currents • Estimated flow-away or upwelling width and calculated flows • Estimated Oxygen Loads from upwelling or flow-away flows and DO pick-up (measured DO minus background DO)

  6. Operation of Both Aerators

  7. Operation of South Jets with Pure Oxygen Gas

  8. Both Aerators DO Pick-up of 0.78 mg/l (Back. DO = 3.2 mg/l) Total Flow-away Flow of 90 cfs Total Oxygen Supply Rate of 402 lbs/day (assuming 40 ft flow-away width) South Jets with Oxygen DO Pick-up of 2.19 mg/l (Back. DO = 2.9 mg/l) Avg. Upwelling Flow of 191 cfs Avg. Oxygen Supply Rate of 2270 lbs/day Oxygen Transfer Efficiency of 45% Summary
