Mechanical sludge disintegration for the production of carbon source for biological nutrient removal.
The primary driver for a successful biological nutrient removal is the availability of suitable carbon source, mainly in the form of volatile fatty acids (VFA). Several methods have been examined to increase the amount of VFAs in wastewater. This study investigates the mechanism of mechanical disintegration of thickened surplus activated sludge by a deflaker technology for the production of org...
متن کاملSludge Reduction and Biological Nutrient Removal by Ultrasound
Sludge produced in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) reaches around 1% of the wastewater volume treated whilst the processes for sludge handling and disposal represent from 20 to 60% of operating costs. It is widely recognised that sludge for disposal is one of the most critical issues today for WWTPs operators. The tendency of many countries seems to be aimed towards a biowaste prevention wh...
متن کاملExternal nitrification in biological nutrient removal activated sludge systems.
A biological nutrient removal (BNR) activated sludge (AS) scheme incorporating external nitrification in a fixed media system is evaluated. A laboratory scale investigation of the scheme indicates that it holds considerable potential for BNRAS system intensification through major reduction in sludge age and oxygen demand and significant improvement in sludge settleability. Because the BNRAS sys...
متن کاملBiological Nutrient Removal Using a Novel Five-step Continuous Flow Activated Sludge Process Technology
An anaerobic-anoxic/oxic (AA/O) five-tank biological process called five-step continuous flow activated sludge process (FSCFASP) was developed to force the oscillation of organic matter and nutrient concentrations in process reactors. The run scheme and schematic diagram of FSCFASP was described. The run cycle was divided into two symmetrical half cycles with eight periods during each cycle. Th...
متن کاملNew approaches to minimize excess sludge in activated sludge systems.
This paper presents three new approaches to reduce excess sludge production in activated sludge systems: 1) modification of conventional activated sludge process with insertion of a sludge holding tank in the sludge return line; 2) chlorination of excess sludge so as to minimize excess sludge production; and 3) utilization of a metabolic uncoupler, 3, 3', 4', 5-Tetrachlorosalicylanilide (TCS) t...
