Tanks for Waste Water Treatment
What is a wastewater treatment tank system?
A wastewater treatment tank system is designed to receive and treat influent wastewater through
physical, chemical, or biological methods. That means if wastewater flows through a system and
is treated in some way, then that system is considered a wastewater treatment tank system. For
example, oil-water separators treat wastewater by separating the oil from the water and therefore
are wastewater treatment tank systems.
Tanks for Waste Water Treatment System
Wastewater treatment system consists of 8 parts as detail below:
Grease trap chamber
To separate oil & grease and wastewater by let oil & grease floats to surface and trapped inside the chamber. After that, wastewater with low oil & grease will flow to next part of wastewater treatment tank.
Solid separation chamber
To separate settleable solid /sediment settles down at the bottom of chamber and sludge containing fats and oils will float on the surface water. Moreover, organic matter in wastewater biodegraded by anaerobic microorganisms. This part is keeping sludge and sediment to dispose and clear water flows into next chamber.
Equalization chamber
To provide consistent influent flow to next chamber by retaining high flow fluctuations.
Anoxic chamber
To remove biological nitrogen in municipal wastewater.
Activated sludge chamber
Treated wastewater from preliminary treatment flows to this chamber. After that, aerobic microorganisms biodegrade organic substance in wastewater and we will pump some water to anoxic chamber.
Sedimentation chamber
To sludge sedimentation from activated sludge chamber, excess sludge will be pumped to sludge storage chamber and some sludge will be returned to anoxic chamber by submersible pump.
Chlorination chamber
We use choline to disinfect treated water from sedimentation chamber before pumping out of the system.
Sludge storage chamber
We will pump excess sludge to storage in this chamber and then we will pump it out of the system manually.
