摘要:
A system for enhancing an activated sludge process including at least one biological reactor. A weighting agent impregnation subsystem is coupled to the biological reactor for mixing biological flocs and weighting agent to impregnate the weighting agent into the biological flocs to form weighted biological flocs. A weighting agent recovery subsystem is configured to recover the weighting agent from the weighted biological flocs and reintroducing the recovered weighting agent to the weighting agent impregnation subsystem.
摘要:
A process for producing PHA comprises obtaining biomass produced in the course of biologically treating a first wastewater source containing RBCOD. The biomass is to be exploited with a second wastewater source having a different RBCOD content from the first wastewater source in order to accumulate and thereby produce PHA. Before subjecting the biomass to a PHA accumulation process, the biomass PHA accumulation potential is enhanced via an acclimation process with the second wastewater source. During acclimation, the biomass is subjected to repeated feast-famine periods. During each feast period, the biomass is exposed to a fraction of the second wastewater source. The RBCOD uptake and/or biomass respiration rate is directly or indirectly measured during each feast period. The famine period is maintained for a period of time that is at least two times greater than the length of time of the proceeding feast period. After at least two feast-famine acclimation periods or after one or more measured parameters reveal an increased RBCOD relative uptake or respiration rate of the biomass during a subsequent feast period, the biomass is subjected to a PHA accumulation process using the second wastewater source.

An integrated fixed film activated sludge sequencing batch reactor is provided where both suspended biomass and biomass supported on biofilm carriers are utilized to biologically treat wastewater received by the sequencing batch reactor. The sequencing batch reactor includes two hydraulically connected tanks with suspended biomass being contained in at least one tank and biomass supported on biofilm carriers in the other tank.

摘要:
There is provided a method which eliminates a decrease in activity of an activated sludge treatment microorganism group, which greatly increases treatment ability of the microorganism group, to enhance treatment efficiency and to reduce the amount of excess sludge. The wastewater treatment method of the present invention includes, when raw water (1a) is subjected to an activated sludge treatment, performing a first sludge returning step (Va) (a step of returning sludge, which was previously aerated and stirred in a first excess sludge tank or sludge retention tank (12a) equipped with an aerator and a stirrer, to an treatment tank, a sequencing batch reactor or an anaerobic tank; and/or a step of returning sludge, which was previously aerated and stirred in a second excess sludge tank or thickened sludge retention tank (13a) equipped with an aerator and a stirrer, to a treatment tank, a sequencing batch reactor or an anaerobic tank), and maintaining the number of genus Bacillus bacteria in the treatment tank, the sequencing batch reactor or the anaerobic tank, to which the sludge has been returned, at 2.0×10 5 to 22.5×10 5 cfu/mL.
摘要:
The present invention relates to membrane bioreactor ("MBR") system that includes a mechanical membrane reciprocation system to reduce or eliminate membrane fouling. The disclosed MBR system can be operated with higher flux and lower fouling than MBR systems using air scouring. Furthermore the system can remove nitrogen and phosphorous with one RAS and one or no internal recirculation line. The membrane can be reciprocated by a low RPM motor connected to a pulley via belt to rotate rotor to convert rotational motion into reciprocating motion of membrane. Various mechanical means can also be employed to create the reciprocating motion.
