A wastewater recycling system includes a biological reactor having anaerobic, anoxic, and aerobic chambers. A lift station including a pump is operatively connected to the biological reactor. The lift station receives biologically treated liquid from the biological reactor and pumps the liquid from the lift station. A filtration subsystem is operatively connected to the lift station. The filtration subsystem receives and filters the liquid pumped by the lift station. The filtration subsystem includes a salt-rejecting membrane filter comprising a concentrate recirculation conduit operatively connected to recirculate salt-rejecting membrane filter concentrate to a point along the wastewater recycling system upstream of the salt-rejecting membrane filter, thereby forming a salt concentration loop between said point along the wastewater recycling system and the salt-rejecting membrane filter. A post-filtration subsystem is operatively connected to receive salt-rejecting membrane filter permeate, and comprises a water disinfection system that disinfects the permeate thereby generating potable water.

A method for generating a maintenance program for the operation of a maintenance system at a bioreactor, in particular a bioreactor of a vehicle for transporting persons, which method comprises at least the following steps, which are executed by an electronic data processing means associated with the maintenance system: acquiring system characteristics data of the maintenance system; acquiring reactor characteristics data of the bioreactor, the reactor characteristics data being received at least in part from a communication interface of the bioreactor; and generating the maintenance program at least on the basis of the system characteristics data and the reactor characteristics data.

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.

The invention relates to a system and method for treating wastewater onboard a marine vessel or other limited space application where wastewater treatment is required. In one embodiment of the invention, two polar opposite wastewater treatment processes are incorporated into the same treatment system. The system is a hybrid treatment unit that combines a conventional wastewater treatment using a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) process-based biological treatment unit in combination with a novel electrochemical advanced oxidation process (EAOP) via an in-situ sodium hypochlorite recirculation. The clarified and disinfected effluent from this hybrid treatment unit is filtered to remove residual TSS. The filtered and disinfected effluent is discharged after dechlorination/neutralization. On-site maintenance disinfectant can be produced via the electrochemical/electrochlorination/electro-oxidation process and used for both treatment unit cleaning and disinfection. Additionally, the treatment unit provides a wholly separate stream of electrolysis generated disinfectant for surface disinfection purposes.

A method for predicting operation effectiveness of a decentralized sewage treatment facility by using a support vector machine, comprising: simultaneously collecting an influent conductivity and an effluent conductivity, and recording operation effectiveness of the decentralized sewage treatment facility; training a training set by using the support vector machine, with the influent conductivity and effluent conductivity as input and the operation effectiveness of decentralized sewage treatment facilities as output, so as to construct a prediction model for the operation effectiveness of decentralized sewage treatment facilities; and collecting the influent conductivity and effluent conductivity of the treatment facilities to be predicted, and inputting them into the prediction model to obtain a predictive result. The method is not only highly accurate, but fast and inexpensive.

A subsurface sewage is provided and includes a plurality of leaching members oriented substantially vertically. A first volume defined within each of the plurality of the leaching members forms a void therein and includes a periphery, a top face that defines a first substantially horizontal plane, and a bottom face that defines a second substantially horizontal plane. A permeable enclosure is wrapped substantially around the periphery of each leaching member and a system frame maintains a location and a position of the plurality of the leaching members. A filter media is disposed in a second volume defined between at least two of the plurality of the leaching members. A leaching member balancing pipe is configured to hydraulically connect at least one of the plurality of the leaching members to at least one other of the plurality of the leaching members. A distribution pipe is configured to hydraulically connect at least one of the plurality of the leaching members to a source of an effluent flow.

A sewage treatment apparatus comprises an external box body internally being provided with an anaerobic zone, an aerobic zone, a settling zone, a sewage reduction zone and an apparatus zone separated from each other, wherein the anaerobic zone, the aerobic zone, the settling zone and the sewage reduction zone communicate in sequence, the anaerobic zone communicates with a septic tank, the aerobic zone communicates with the anaerobic zone to reflux a part of mixed liquid to the anaerobic zone, the settling zone communicates with the anaerobic zone to reflux a part of active sludge to the anaerobic zone, and the sludge reduction zone communicates with the anaerobic zone or the septic tank; and the apparatus zone is internally provided with a detection unit for detecting various parameters during a sewage treatment process and a controller for controlling working states according to a detection result of the detection unit.

Described herein is a device for the treatment of water and wastewater that provides a biological or chemical reactor a means to enhance performance by initiating a unique flow pattern between the reactive and solids/liquid separation zones. Said device circulates water between the two zones by forcibly directing water that enters the settling zone back toward the reaction zone via an opening in a partition. The fluid motion scours the bottom of the settling chamber to prevent the accumulation of biologically active solids while maximizing the time those solids spend in the reaction zone; thereby increasing the treatment efficiency of the overall process.
