A sludge treatment system, comprising a pump (1), an ozone generation device, an ejector (2) and pipe reactors (3). The pump (1), the ozone generation device, the ejector (2) and the pipe reactors (3) are sequentially connected by pipes. An oxygen generator (4) and an ozone machine (5) are arranged within the ozone generation device, and are connected by a pipe. The ozone generation device is used for providing ozone into the pipe reactors (3). The inner surfaces of the pipe reactors (3) are coated with a catalyst layer used for increasing the oxidative capacity of the ozone on the sludge. Spiral fin plates (6) allowing a fluid to generate a spiral flow are arranged within the pipe reactors (3). Also disclosed is a sludge treatment method using the present sludge treatment system. The present system has a high ozone utilization rate, and a low ozone input proportion.

A method of controlling addition rate of an odor control chemical to a wastewater line by adding odor control chemical to the wastewater. The method includes measuring a level of dissolved sulfides in the wastewater line using a sulfide probe placed in said wastewater line, transferring data on the level of dissolved sulfides to a computing unit, determining a required odor control chemical addition rate in said computing unit based on said level of dissolved sulfides, and adding the odor control chemical at said required addition rate. The method allows for accurate on-line control of the level of H.sub.2S in the wastewater line.

The present invention relates generally to stable percarboxylic acid compositions comprising, inter alia, at least two stabilizing agents, and various uses for water treatments, including water treatments in connection with oil- and gas-field operations. The present invention also relates to slick water compositions and gel based compositions that comprise stable percarboxylic acid compositions and the use thereof in oil- and gas-field operations.

Cysteine synthase enzymes (e.g. O-Acetyl-L-Serine Sulfhydrylase enzymes) may be used in combination with sulfide quinone reductase enzymes in additive compositions, fluid compositions, and methods for decreasing or removing hydrogen sulfide from recovered downhole fluids and/or the subterranean reservoir wellbore from which the downhole fluid was recovered. The fluid composition may include at least one cysteine synthase enzyme with at least one sulfide quinone reductase, and a base fluid, such as a water-based fluid, an organic-based fluid, and combinations thereof.

A process and system for determining injection rate of treatment chemicals to eliminate or reduce downstream noxious gas emissions in a wastewater collection system. The process and system provides for treatment chemical injection at a pumping station or directly on a force main wherein dosage is calculated based on current and historical data relative to the pumping station.

A bio-enhanced deodorization equipment includes a main body and a filler container in the main body. The filler container includes a wall and at least three perforated separator plates vertically arranged in the filler container. A plurality of spaces are formed by the at least three perforated separator plates, and a microbial filler and a carrier filler are accommodated in the spaces in an alternate manner.

In some embodiments, a method may include treating pulp in pulp and paper mills. The methods may include providing a peracetate oxidant solution and generating a reactive oxygen species. The peracetate solution may include peracetate anions and a peracid. In some embodiments, the peracetate solution may include a pH from about pH 10 to about pH 12. In some embodiments, the peracetate solution has a molar ratio of peracetate anions to peracid ranging from about 60:1 to about 6000:1. In some embodiments, the peracetate solution has a molar ratio of peracetate to hydrogen peroxide of greater than about 16:1. The peracetate oxidant solution may provide enhanced treatment methods of bleaching, brightening, and delignifying pulp fibers involving the use of peracetate oxidant solutions.

A portable and modular renewable energy microgeneration apparatus is disclosed that includes at least four modular units. The first modular unit includes a mixing tank and a chopper. The second modular unit includes a buffer tank, a liquor tank, and a pasteurization tank that pasteurizes waste that has been mixed with liquid from the liquor tank by the mixer, chopped into smaller sized components by the chopper, and pre-warmed by the buffer tank. The third modular unit includes a digestion tank that performs anaerobic digestion on pasteurized waste received from the pasteurization tank. And the fourth modular unit includes a gas storage tank that stores gas generated by the waste in at least one of the mixing tank, the chopper, the buffer tank, the liquor tank, the pasteurization tank, and the digestion tank. Each of the four modular units is both portable and modular.

A system for generating an aqueous ozone solution employs a mixing assembly disposed within an auxiliary compartment coupled to an external sidewall of an ozone supply unit enclosure. The mixing assembly includes a first flow path for water to flow through and a second flow path in parallel with the first flow path. The first flow path includes one or more ozone intake ports that are fluidically coupled to one or more ozone output ports of the ozone supply unit enclosure. The second flow path includes a control valve that selectively permits a portion of the water to flow through the second flow path to produce a negative pressure in the first flow path so that ozone is drawn into the first flow path through the one or more ozone intake ports and mixed into the water flowing through the first flow path to produce an aqueous ozone solution.

A method for water treatment, wherein the water for treatment is conducted by a conveying device from an inlet to an outlet via multiple treatment stages, wherein at least one of the treatment stages is an oxidation stage in which foreign matter situated in the water is oxidized by an oxidant which is added to the water in or upstream of the oxidation stage, and at least one of the treatment stages to which the water is fed after the processing by the at least one oxidation stage is a separation stage in which foreign matter situated in the water after processing in the at least one oxidation stage is precipitated and separated off by addition of at least one separating agent, in particular of a flocculant and/or of activated carbon.
