Sewage Treatment Plant – Rahway NJ

Description

‘The sewage treatment plant… cares for the sewage from the south district of the settlement, and the process consists of primary sedimentation, aeration, secondary sedimentation, and chlorination. The project included also a main intercepting sewer. The character of the concrete structure is a departure in the design of a treatment plant.’
