摘要： An enhanced multiple compartmented (segmented or chambered) supplemental tank system that (i) adds another media to enhance wood chip denitrification, and (ii) includes a component for recycling treated wastewater back to the front end of the system with mainly nitrate-N recycled back and combined with organic carbon (present in wastewater) under anoxic to form nitrogen gas and CO2. The latter uses an aeration pump and tubing to reduce soluble organics and assist with the conversion of ammonia-N to nitrite-N and nitrate-N.

摘要： A septic tank system for a single household or small business. That system comprises: a compartment septic tank, at least one of a leach field and an infiltration pit, and a supplemental tank between the compartment septic tank and the leach field and/or the infiltration pit. The supplemental tank including means for converting ammonia to nitrogen gas, reducing biochemical oxygen demand and reducing total suspended solids. Preferably, it includes a first chamber having an air pump and aeration channels; and a second chamber for holding one or more solid phase organic media.
