AUTOMATED POLLUTION CONTROL FOR SCL

The pollution-control system of the Seaboard Coast Line Railroad near Tampa is far more automated than any other oily waste water system to date. The system comprises two subsystems: a gravity-separation-type roughing operation designed to save money and trouble in final purifying; and the main treatment plant, where the water is chemically treated before final discharge. A diagram shows the system flow.
