New 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...
متن کاملA modified oxic-settling-anaerobic activated sludge process using gravity thickening for excess sludge reduction
Oxic-settling-anaerobic process (OSA) was known as a cost-effective way to reduce the excess sludge production with simple upgrade of conventional activated sludge process (CAS). A low oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) level was the key factor to sludge decay and lysis in the sludge holding tank of the OSA process. However, the ORP control with nitrogen purge or chemical dosing in the OSA pro...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Excess Sludge Reduction in SBR by Oxidizing Some Sludge by Ozone
The excessive biological sludge production is one of the disadvantages of aerobic process such as SBR. So the problem of excess sludge production along with its treatment , and disposal in aerobic processes in municipal and industrial waste water can be seen in many parts of the world even in our country . to solve the problem of excess sludge production , reducing in by oxidizing some of t...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of the Efficiency of Granular Activated Sludge and Common Activated Sludge in the Removal of Chromium (VI) from Synthetic Solutions
Introduction: Aerobic granules as a novel type of bio-sorbent have an excellent settling ability and high-porosity structure. This study investigated the feasibility of aerobic granules for chromium (VI) removal from synthetic aqueous solution and compare it with conventional activated sludge. Method: In this research the effect of some important parameters including pH (5, 7, and 9), initial c...
متن کاملReduction of excess sludge production by ozonation
The literature on reduction of excess sludge production by ozonation is summarized. Two sequencing batch reactor experiments where sludge is ozonated for this purpose are performed. The purpose of these is to evaluate the prospects of using ozonation to reduce excess sludge production in two different kinds of sludge. Urban sewage sludge is used in the first, and paper mill sludge in the second...
