Decentralized Wastewater Treatment System Reliability Analysis
In the case of the decentralized wastewater sector, very little research has been done to establish the long-term performance of onsite or cluster systems, or the effect that various management approaches may have on that performance. These approaches could include, for example, high quality design and equipment requirements; preventive maintenance, repair, or replacement; residuals management ...
متن کاملA Hybrid Constructed Wetland System for Decentralized Wastewater Treatment
Constructed wetland technology has been widely applied around the world to treat domestic wastewaters from the single family home to small communities. Constructed wetlands can be classified as either surface flow wetlands (similar to natural wetlands) or subsurface flow wetlands, where the wastewater flows through a media. Subsurface flow constructed wetlands can either be horizontal flow syst...
متن کاملGenerating electricity from wastewater treatment.
D uring the past 50 years, wastewater treatment has improved the quality of our navigable waters and the health of our environment. This achievement has not been accomplished without considerable capital investment by our nation, and we know that large expenditures will continue to be needed. It has been estimated that $2 trillion will be needed in the United States alone over the next 20 years...
متن کاملSimultaneous wastewater treatment and biological electricity generation.
It is possible to directly generate electricity using bacteria while accomplishing wastewater treatment in processes based on microbial fuel cell technologies. When bacteria oxidize a substrate, they remove electrons. Current generation is made possible by keeping bacteria separated from oxygen, but allowing the bacteria growing on an anode to transfer electrons to the counter electrode (cathod...
متن کاملEnergy-efficient treatment of organic wastewater streams using a rotatable bioelectrochemical contactor (RBEC).
A membraneless bioelectrochemical system - rotatable bio-electrochemical contactor (RBEC) consists of an array of rotatable electrode disks was developed to convert the chemical energy from wastewater organics (acetate) directly into electricity. Each rotatable electrode disk had an upper-air exposing and a lower-water submerging halves. Intermittent rotation (180°) enabled each halve to altern...
