MICROBIAL ASSISTED PHOSPHOROUS RECOVERY UNDER ANAEROBIC CONDITION
A system and method for treatment of wastewater, in which the system includes a blackwater reactor configured to receive a stream of blackwater influent, to contain the blackwater therein during treatment of the blackwater, to facilitate recovery of methane and nutrient precipitates therefrom, and to output partially treated blackwater, and a greywater reactor configured to receive a stream of greywater influent and the partially treated blackwater output from the blackwater reactor, to contain the greywater and the partially treated blackwater therein during greywater treatment, and to output greywater treatment discharge. The process includes inputting a stream of blackwater into the blackwater reactor; treating the blackwater in the blackwater reactor with an anaerobic digestion process; controlling a pH level of the blackwater within the blackwater reactor; recovering nutrient precipitates from the blackwater reactor, optionally independent of chemical additives; and recovering methane from the blackwater reactor.
WASTEWATER PROCESSING MODULES AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEMS INCLUDING THE SAME
Wastewater processing modules that include an interior surface defining an interior volume, one or more inlets configured to receive wastewater into the interior volume, one or more outlets configured to exhaust processed water from the interior volume, one or more flow-deflecting baffles positioned within the interior volume fluidly between the inlet(s) and the outlet(s) and that divide the interior volume into a plurality of fluidly connected sections, and a purification medium at least partially filing the plurality of fluidly connected sections. The flow-deflecting baffle(s) are configured to channel the wastewater to flow along a plurality of circuitous bulk flow paths through the purification medium. The purification medium is configured to sequester contaminants from the wastewater as it flows through the interior volume along the circuitous bulk flow paths to produce the processed water therefrom.
Waste water purification system
The present invention relates to a water-processing system configured to produce purified waste water. The system comprises an inlet for waste water, one or more biological water-treatment units, and an outlet for purified water. The one or more biological water-treatment units are fluidly connected to the inlet and the outlet. Each of the one or more biological water-treatment units comprises: an inlet for receiving water to be treated, a reactor, an outlet for treated water, and ventilation means configured to provide ventilation to the reactor. The reactor is divided into two or more compartments by one or more screens. Each compartment is in fluid communication with the ventilation means, and comprises a biofilm on one or more surfaces. The reactor is configured to expose at least a portion of the waste water to the biofilm in the presence of air supplied by the ventilation means.
Natural zeolite block for improving water quality and method for manufacturing same
A natural zeolite block for improving water quality that is capable of being built in rivers, streams, and reservoirs having point and non-point pollutant sources to purify the water polluted by pollutants, to remove the eutrophication in the water to prevent the occurrence of green and red tides, and to consistently purify heavy metals and all kinds of harmful substances flowing into the water and to a method for manufacturing the same.
FINE BUBBLE GENERATOR
A fine bubble generator may include an inlet, an outlet, a first fine bubble generation portion including a first flow path, and a second fine bubble generation portion including a second flow path. The first flow path may include a diameter-reducing flow path and a diameter-increasing flow path. The second flow path may include a guide flow path and a collision flow path disposed downstream of the guide flow path. A first bearing and a first impeller rotatably attached to the first bearing may be disposed on the collision flow path. The first impeller may include a disc disposed at a position at which the gas-dissolved water collides with the disc; a first rotation shaft disposed on a downstream surface of the disc and rotatably attached to the first bearing; and one or more first vanes disposed on an upstream surface of the disc.
AUTOMATED, MOBILE, LOW POWER CONSUMPTION WITH A HYBRID POWER CAPACITY WASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITY
The present invention describes an automated, transportable and energy-efficient with a hybrid power capacity wastewater treatment facility that allows for the disinfection of contaminated sanitation wastewater in order to preserve the environment and provide a greater availability of this resource and its reuse. The facility described in the present invention allows to carry out a process for water treatment in five stages based in equalization, oxidation sedimentation, disinfection and filtration. Moreover, it has a photovoltaic feeding system and a night lighting system that allows the operation of the facility in a hybrid way during the day and the night, as well as a structure that allows its easy transportation. Finally, the facility has an automated system comprised by a control panel that allows to manage and monitor every operational condition of it, that integrates and sends all processed programmable information to a programmable logic controller.
FINE BUBBLE GENERATOR
A fine bubble generator may include an inlet; an outlet; a first fine bubble generation portion; and a second fine bubble generation portion. The first fine bubble generation portion includes: a diameter-reducing flow path and a diameter-increasing flow path. The second fine bubble generation portion includes: a first swirling flow generation portion; and a second swirling flow generation portion. The first swirling flow generation portion includes: a first outer peripheral portion; and a plurality of first vanes disposed configured to generate a first swirling flow flowing in a first swirling direction with respect to a center axis of the second fine bubble generation portion. The second swirling flow generation portion includes: a second outer peripheral portion; and a plurality of second vanes configured to generate a second swirling flow flowing in a second swirling direction opposite to the first swirling direction with respect to the center axis.
Biological Fluidized Bed Process with High Concentration Powder Carriers Used for Treatment of Municipal Wastewater
The invention relates to a new biological fluidized bed process with high concentration powder carriers used for the treatment of municipal wastewater, which is a fluidized bed system based on the principle of sewage biochemical treatment, by adding a compound powder carrier to the biochemical tank, and forming a high concentration mixture after mixing and microbial attachment; the sludge mixture after the reaction is concentrated and separated, and then enters the compound powder carrier cyclone separation and recovery system, which can separate most of the compound powder carrier from the discharged excess sludge, and then return to the biochemical tank for recycling. The highly integrated municipal wastewater treatment process proposed in the invention has high treatment efficiency, small occupation area, low operation energy consumption, and can realize the doubling of sewage treatment capacity and the improvement of effluent water quality without adding additional occupancy.
