Join fellow AWWEE members for a special walking tour of the Joint Water Pollution Control Plant in Carson, California.

The Joint Water Pollution Control Plant (JWPCP) is the Sanitation Districts' oldest and largest wastewater treatment plant. Serving a population of approximately 3.5 million people (see map for tributary area), JWPCP treats an average of 260 million gallons of wastewater per day. All solids from the Joint Outfall System are processed here and anaerobically digested to produce methane gas. The methane gas is then burned in the Total Energy Facility to produce enough electrical power to run the entire plant. After treatment, the effluent is chlorinated and discharged through two ocean outfalls a mile and a half offshore.
