Thermite contains its own supply of oxygen and does not require any external source of air. Consequently, it cannot be smothered, and may ignite in any environment given sufficient initial heat. It burns well while wet, and cannot be easily extinguished with water—though enough water to remove sufficient heat may stop the reaction. [22]
West tunnel to Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant, March 2020. Oceanside is a secondary treatment plant handling about 20% of the city's wastewater from one-third of the city's residents. Its maximum capacity is 65 million US gallons (250,000 m 3) per day, with an average daily dry weather flow of 17 million US gallons (64,000 m 3).
The pipeline empties the water into a sea water intake sump on the shore where 3 vertical turbine pumps of variable discharge up to a maximum of 4,000 m 3 /h each are used to pump water into the plant. The average intake flow is 9,000 to 10,000 m 3 /h, and the average product water output of the plant is about 4,000 m 3 /h. The system is ...
The sea water intakes from the 1950s-era plant will now be used to pull ocean water in for desalination as the AES power generating plant is being rebuilt to use air instead of sea water to cool the plant. [6] The plant would include a brine diffuser system to help disperse the brine in the ocean upon release. [8]
Los Angeles has agreed to spend at least $20.8 million on improvements to the Hyperion sewage plant after a massive spill of untreated wastewater in 2021.
For water treatment, CWTP utilizes four ozone generators, designed to handle an average capacity of 275 million US gallons (1,040 million litres) per day—although average daily consumption is lower, at approximately 200 million US gallons (760 million litres)—and a peak level of 405 million US gallons (1,530 million litres) per day.
