Tanks at left are digesters where organic solids are taken from the water. Fertilizer and sewer gas are removed in this process. Except for electric lights, Oklahoma City's $5 million southside sewage disposal plant is self sufficent. That is, it operates entirely on its own power. Treated sewer water is used for hydrulic power to turn the huge fliter wheels. Pumping units are operated by sewer gas extracted from the sewage that pours into the plant at the rate of 20 million gallons a day. "if necessay we could even light the plant by generators operated by sewer gas," Frank Taylor, city superintendent of water and sewers, explained......Sewage is 99 1/2 percent water. The residue is hauled away, dried and a portion of it is sold to the Soil Booster Corp., a private industry which sells fertilizer. "Oklahoma City really sells 75 percent of its sludge for fertilizer and gives 25 percent to the city park department to spread on grass shrubbery and other plant areas," Taylor said."
