A method for modifying a wastewater treatment device, the method including: 1) fixing a filling support in a wastewater pool, where the filling support includes a support frame; the support frame includes a hollow shaft, a fixed ring, and at least one vane; 2) adjusting the height of the filling support, until the fixed ring is submerged below the liquid level of the wastewater pool, where the water intake velocity of the wastewater pool is no less than 0.25 m/s, whereby a water current is produced and drives the support frame to rotate; 3) adding a functional liquid into the hollow shaft; and 4) adding an enzyme mixture to the hollow shaft when the rotation speed of the support frame is less than a first preset value, until the rotation speed of the support frame reaches a second preset value.

A system and method is provided for water and wastewater treatment. The system comprises a fixed film biological process and a ballasted flocculation process.

An aerator assembly for wastewater treatment includes a draft tube and an air supply assembly. The draft tube includes a sidewall and presents open top and bottom tube ends. The air supply assembly includes an air supply conduit and a diffuser body. The diffuser body has an inlet aperture and a bubble generator connected to the inlet. The inlet aperture is connected to the air supply conduit such that the bubble generator receives air from a source of air, to which the air supply conduit is connected. The bubble generator has a plurality of air openings for generating fine air bubbles. The diffuser body is sealingly engaged to the sidewall adjacent the bottom tube end so as restrict upward flow of wastewater through the draft tube past the diffuser body.

A modular system for aeration and biosource augmentation of a body of water and a method of using the system to prevent or eliminate an algal bloom in a water body include one or more mechanical basins located outside the body of water and at least two of: one or more residence pods submerged in the body of water that aerate the body of water, dose beneficial biosource, host biosource, and provide biosource to the body of water; one or more residence air pods submerged in the body of water that aerate the body of water, host beneficial bacteria, and provide beneficial bacteria to the body of water; and one or more residence nano pods submerged in the body of water that host, the one or more residence pods or the one or more residence air pods in fluid communication with the one or more mechanical basins.

A wastewater treatment apparatus has a tank with an access opening, at least one fixed film media pod positioned in the interior of the tank, a diffuser positioned in the interior of the tank, and an air pump connected to the diffuser. The fixed film media pod is formed of a polymeric material and has openings framed by the polymeric material. The diffuser is adapted to aerate liquid in the interior of the tank. The media pod has a tubular structure extending vertically in the interior of the tank and positioned above the bottom of the tank. Floats are attached to the top of the media pod so as to suspend the media pod in the liquid in the tank.

The present disclosure relates to a filter material which can be used in reducing the content of contaminants in a raw gas or liquid and a device which comprises the filter material. The disclosure also relates to a method for reducing the content of contaminants in a raw gas or liquid which applies the filter material and/or device.

A method for modifying a wastewater treatment device, the method including: 1) fixing a filling support in a wastewater pool, where the filling support includes a support frame; the support frame includes a hollow shaft, a fixed ring, and at least one vane; 2) adjusting the height of the filling support, until the fixed ring is submerged below the liquid level of the wastewater pool, where the water intake velocity of the wastewater pool is no less than 0.25 m/s, whereby a water current is produced and drives the support frame to rotate; 3) adding a functional liquid into the hollow shaft; and 4) adding an enzyme mixture to the hollow shaft when the rotation speed of the support frame is less than a first preset value, until the rotation speed of the support frame reaches a second preset value.

Water treatment structures may have at least a first geotextile fabric layer; a second geotextile fabric layer; a third geotextile fabric layer; a first filler layer with plastic particles, arranged between the first and second geotextile fabric layers; and a second filler layer with plastic particles, arranged between the second and third geotextile fabric layers, wherein the geotextile fabric layers and the filler layers are within a housing, and wherein the structure is configured such that contaminated water proceeds sequentially through the first geotextile fabric layer, the first filler layer, the second geotextile fabric layer, the second filler layer, and the third geotextile fabric layer. Methods of treating wastewater may involve passing wastewater, after optional oxygenating and pre-filtering, through such alternating layers of geotextile, preferably nonwoven, and polymer particles.

A wastewater treatment apparatus for remediation of a wastewater treatment system has a septic tank with a lower sludge layer and an upper liquid effluent layer. The apparatus is comprised of a brush that includes a brush arm having a first end, a second end, and bristles disposed on the brush arm between the first end and the second end. The brush is configured to be positioned within the liquid effluent layer in the septic tank in a vertical orientation such that the second end is disposed below the first end.

A system and method is provided for water and wastewater treatment. The system comprises a fixed film biological process and a ballasted flocculation process.
