take your politically motivated conspiracy theories to another forum mate.

you drain the positivity of the place

First post on a fun forum is about this?

Take it to the general forum or somewhere else.

Then provide scientific evidence of your claims.

This forum is all about SUP.....can't you read?

We have winds and currents that send that nasty water over to New Zealand..

I find it interesting you choose that as your

"While "to wank" means "to masturbate", the term "wanker" is seldom if ever used in British slang to denote "one who wanks". It is quite wrong to infer from somebody's being a wanker that they in fact wank (and vice versa), but of course, fair to assume they do in any case. Herein lies the genius of the insult: if you call someone a wanker, it's probably true, but only literally. I suppose it all originates from our repressed Victorian sexualities, from back when everybody thought they were the only ones to suffer the secret shame of being an actual wanker. Most children these days learn the word "wanker" long before they learn its literal meaning."

so dont you want to know how many kilos of Mercury get dumped in at Werribee...? I do

interesting, why not post some of the emails, letters, phone logs or documentation that youve found....we all love the ocean if what your found is what you say post it and maybe you'll find those who'll support you in your quest....mate.

wow!! boarder paul.....
how did you lose the other 4 toes ??

Class C Recycled Water
What is Class C recycled water?

A secondary treatment process combined with minor pathogen reduction is used to produce Class C recycled water. With strict management practices it may be used for the following:
- Cooked/processed human food crops
- Selected (raw/unprocessed) crops not directly exposed to recycled water (eg. apples)
- Grazing/fodder for cattle, sheep, horses, goats etc.
- Grazing for dairy cattle (subject to a five day holding period after irrigation)
- Urban (non-drinking) uses with restricted public access
- Closed industrial systems
- Non food crops such as woodlots, turf growing and flowers

----------------
Another definition of Class C seems to be;
E. Coli - less than 1000 particles per 100ml
Suspended Solids of 30mg/Litre
pH of 6-8.5
----------------

So as far as I can see, Class C water is pretty close to being considered as "Grey Water" (which is actually very clear).

Yes, 30mg of Suspended Solids is a concern, but the vast majority of this may be undigested organic particles, and not contaminants.

Any modern Sewerage Treatment Plant does the following tasks;
1) Grit Removal - removal of sand, coffee grounds, broken earthen pipe grit, soil, etc
2) Primary Sedimentation & aeration - floating and sinking stuff is then moved off for further process
3) Nutrient Removal - via a number of alternatives
4) Tertiary Filtration - via a number of alternatives
5) Disinfection, often via UV and Chlorination
6) Option for Ultra Filtration &/or RO (Reverse Osmosis) which is used for removal of very fine particles, and it even filters out some or all of the E.Coli particles. This process improves the "Class C" water.
7) Solids Treatment - a thickening process via centrifuges or gravity thickening tanks. Plus anaerobic or aerobic digestion, where bacteria eats and digests much of the solids, and you get solids reduction. Methane gas can be a bi-product, and some plants install electrical co-generation, to use the methane energy to make electricity which is used at the facility.
8) Chemical Dosing - a few different chemicals are required throughout the process;
- Disinfection uses a selection of sodium bisulfate and sodium hypochlorite (liquid chlorine), and in the old days, Clorine Gas, and UV
- Nutrient Removal uses a selection of Ferric Chloride & Ferric Sulphate for phosphate removal (please select low phosphate detergents), Alum Sulphate, Polymers as flocculant (particle binders to aid sinking or particles), and Lime and Magnesium Hydroxide for pH balancing.
9) Odour control via a number of options.

In all fairness to Melbourne Water, they are in charge of dealing with all of the sh!t that Melbournians put into the sewers, and if some of that includes mercury, it is not necessarily Melbourne Water's fault that it entered the system....

I would hazard a guess that some mercury ends up with the sludge, which is usually sent to land fill. But sure, some heavy metals might make it through... But if people didn't put the heavy metals into the sewer in the first place, it would be less of a problem.

Disclaimer - I do not work for Melbourne Water, but I do infrastructure estimating, and part of that involves water filtration and sewer treatment plants, from time to time.

POO PONDS

but wheres wanker?

wanker said...

That oily feeling on your skin from Port Phillip Bay...Whats that???

A lot of wanking going on in here,so could it be

Laurie please remove this unrelated topic to the general forum.
I know a few guys who would go to town on this one

who gives a razoo. about weather most people got it right or wrong. Its the same as what the government do. They create enuf spin about something that after a while we believe it. Like we have been told for the last 30 years that Werribee is a state of the art sewerage treatment process. Maybe it was when it was built but not now... They have to take the cattle that are grazing on the treatment plant pastures away for 6 months to wean the toxic build up from their system b4 they cut them up for human consumption. The sea grass beds have been eliminated from the top of the bay. Now we get toxic fish...any comments??
