This present disclosure relates to a highly effective sewage treatment based on regulation and control of directed electron flow and apparatus thereof The apparatus includes an anaerobic fermentation electron generation chamber, a heterotrophic-autotrophic denitrification chamber and an aerobic membrane separation chamber. Low concentrated organic sewage is introduced into anaerobic fermentation electron generation chamber; then, particulate and partly dissolved organic substances are intercepted and absorbed by carrier materials; and extracellular currents generated by microorganism reaction are used in following autotrophic denitrification processing. Micro-/ultra-membrane separation processing is used to improve operation load and solid-liquid separation effect of sewage treatment and thereby effluent could meet the high recycling standards. The directed electron flow is regulated and controlled to enhance nutrients' removal and to reduce sludge yield and fouling rate of membrane. The sewage treatment could efficiently treat low concentrated organic sewage at normal temperature (>15 C.) and dramatically decrease energy consumption.

A flow equalization reactor for a multi-stage activated sludge process for treating industrial wastewater and/or municipal sewage is divided into two or more treatment zones. An outflow from a first treatment zone is mixed with an outflow from the second treatment zone in a mixer and conveyed to a third stage reactor containing anaerobic, autotrophic ammonia oxidizing anammox bacteria for converting nitrite nitrogen to nitrogen gas. The relative amounts of the outflows from the first and second treatment zones are controlled to promote and optimize the growth and accumulation of the anammox biomass in the third stage reactor.

An energy efficient aquaculture system combining mixed-cell and raceway configurations. The system comprises a raceway tank, a raceway channel, a first water purification subsystem, and a second water purification subsystem. The system may include one or more of a hatching subsystem, a nursery subsystem, a feeding subsystem, a finishing subsystem, and a fish pumping system for transfer of fish between raceway tanks. A method of growing fish for commercial production using the aquaculture system is also provided.
