A water treatment method treats raw water (water to be treated) containing organic wastewater. The method includes (i) an aeration process performs an initial absorption treatment by aerating the water to be treated, (ii) a filtration process for filtering the water to be treated which has been treated by the initial absorption treatment in the aeration process, (iii) a digestion treatment process for digesting solids captured by the filtration process, (iv) a biological treatment process for denitrifying, with activated sludge, filtered water obtained through the filtration process, (v) a sludge transfer process for sending the activated sludge from the biological treatment process to the aeration process, and (vi) an adjustment process for adjusting an amount of the activated sludge sent to the aeration process via the sludge transfer process based on a nitrogen concentration of treated water which has been biologically treated by the biological treatment process.

Water or wastewater filtration systems and processes have a filter tank having a floor and sidewall defining a filtration zone, an influent conduit, and an effluent conduit. One or more filtration members in the tank having filter media, and one or more cleaning apparatus adjacent at least some portions of the filter media. Generating an effluent stream by generating a pressure differential across submerged portions of the filtration media, causing water in the influent to flow from outside to inside the submerged portions of the filter media. A prime mover rotates the filtration members. A blower and chamber for creating a reduced pressure condition in each cleaning apparatus when they are non-submerged, the chamber receiving wet solids removed from non-submerged, wet solids-laden portions of the filter media by the non-submerged cleaning apparatus subsequent to submerged, fouled portions of the filter media being rotated out of the filtration zone. The non-submerged filter media from which wet solids have been removed is further cleansed of collected solids and entrapped water employing air drawn from inside of the one or more drum filters by the blower.

A filtering apparatus includes a cylindrical filter including a cylindrical screen filter, a treated water nozzle including a nozzle port, a casing where the cylindrical filter is accommodated, the casing containing the nozzle port in the inside, a filtered water flow channel through which filtered water obtained by passage of water to be treated through the screen filter is guided to the outside of the casing, the filtered water flow channel being provided with a flow inlet provided in the inside of the casing, and a rotation mechanism that rotates the cylindrical filter with a central axis of the cylindrical filter. A distance between a centerline of the nozzle port along a direction of outflow of water to be treated and the central axis of the cylindrical filter is shorter than a radius of the cylindrical filter.

A continuous frying device is for carrying out a frying process for food products. The device includes a frying oil reservoir which can be filled with a volume of frying oil; a food product carrier which can at least partially be immersed in the frying oil in the frying oil reservoir and at least one heating unit having at least one heating element which is positioned at least partially inside the frying oil reservoir and which has a heating surface which is in contact with the frying oil in the frying oil reservoir during the frying process.
