Water containing selenium, for example flue gas desulfurization (FGD) blowdown water is treated with a combination of biological and chemical treatment and membrane filtration. The biologically treated water is dosed with a dithiocarbamate compound and flocculated prior to membrane filtration. Optionally, the treatment may be enhanced with one or more adsorptive agents prior to, or in conjunction with, membrane filtration. Membrane concentrate may be re-circulated to one or more biological treatment zones. The biological treatment may be by way of suspended growth, fixed growth on a moving bed, or both. One or more biological treatment zones may be controlled considering their oxygen reduction potential (ORP). Optionally, the biological treatment includes an aerobic zone following one or more anoxic or anaerobic zones. The non-aerobic zones remove selenium and optionally nitrogen and sulfur. The aerobic zone removes carbon, which may include carbon added as a nutrient in a non-aerobic zone.

An anaerobic-AO-SACR combined advanced nitrogen removal system for high ammonia-nitrogen wastewater, in which high ammonia-nitrogen wastewater first enters an anaerobic reactor to remove most of organic matters from the wastewater, effluent water enters an AO reactor for nitrogen removal by pre-denitrification in an anoxic zone and for removal of the remaining organic matters and nitrification of ammonia nitrogen in an aerobic zone, and then the effluent water enters an intermediate pool. Meanwhile, under the control of a water quality testing device and a PLC controller, a part of raw water is introduced into the intermediate pool to adjust the carbon nitrogen ratio of the wastewater. Then, the effluent water enters an SACR reactor, and the wastewater undergoes pre-denitrification-nitrification-endogenous denitrification precisely by using the characteristics of denitrifying bacteria and through adjustment and control of PH/DO/ORP testers and the PLC controller on the SACR reactor so as to realize advanced nitrogen removal.

An automatic sewage regulation system and a regulating method are provided. The automatic sewage regulation system is disposed between preset sewage sources and a preset sewage treatment apparatus and includes an equalization tank and an automatic sewage regulating device. The automatic sewage regulating device includes sensing modules for sensing and transmitting water quality sensing values of sewage in the preset sewage sources to a control module which outputs regulating signals to water flow regulators, so that the water flow regulators can regulate flowing volumes of the sewage of the preset sewage sources according to the regulating signal, to keep a water quality sensing value of the sewage in the equalization tank within a preset range, thereby preventing the equalization tank from converging sewage having excessively-high or excessively-low water quality sensing value. As a result, burden of a preset sewage treatment apparatus can be reduced.
