Flows in wastewater systems will vary from project to project. Then there are those projects that have high flows on one or two days during the week or even several months out of the year, and then receive almost no flow during the other days or months. These intermittent flow systems can pose a problem for designers and require special consideration.
Bill Hensley, one of our senior systems engineers, talks with us about what makes these systems unique and offers some insight into how to design a system to accommodate irregular flows.
