Up Flow - Anaerobic Sludge Blanket Reactor (UASB)
About Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment is a wastewater treatment system using biology that without using of air or oxygen. It aimed to remove organic pollution in wastewater, slurries and sludge. Anaerobic microorganisms convert organic pollutants into a “biogas” which contains methane and carbon dioxide.1 About Up flow-Anaerobic Sludge Blanket Reactor ...

Anaerobic Processes as the Core Technology for Sustainable Domestic Wastewater Treatment: Consolidated Applications, New Trends, Perspectives, and Challenges
Anaerobic digesters have been responsible for the removal of large fraction of organic matter (mineralization of waste sludge) in conventional aerobic sewage treatment plants since the early years of domestic sewage treatment (DST). Attention on the anaerobic technology for improving the sustainability of sewage treatment has been paid mainly after the energy crisis in the 1970s. The successful ...

Sequencing batch reactor
Sequencing batch reactors (SBR) sequential batch reactors are industrial processing tanks for the treatment of wastewater. SBR reactors treat waste water such as sewage or output from anaerobic digesters or mechanical biological treatment facilities in batches. Oxygen is bubbled through the waste water to reduce biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) to make suitable for ...

Commissioning and re-design of a ”class a” thermal hydrolysis facility for pre-treatment of primary and secondary sludge prior to anaerobic digestion
ABSTRACT Thermal hydrolysis of sewage sludge as a pretreatment technique for producing a “Class A” sludge, with existing (or new) mesophilic anaerobic digestion systems are presently being considered for wastewater treatment plants in the USA and Canada. In Europe, a number of innovative hydrolysis systems have been installed or are planned. One technology sold under the trade name CAMBITM has ...

Long-term performance of side-stream deammonification in a continuous flow granular-activated sludge process for nitrogen removal from high ammonium wastewater
An innovative granular sludge deammonification system was incorporated into a conventional-activated sludge process. The process incorporated an internal baffle in the bioreactor for continuous separation of granular biomass from flocculent biomass, which allowed for controlling the solids retention time of flocculent sludge. The process was evaluated for ammonium removal from municipal ...

The function of sludge drying
Drying the sludge has the following advantages: (1) Reduction: Due to the high water content of the sludge, the volume is large and fluid. After the above process, the volume of sludge is reduced to one tenth of the original, and it is converted from liquid to solid, which is convenient for transportation and consumption. (2) Stabilization: The sludge has a high content of organic matter, which ...
