CONSTITUTION: An apparatus for purifying river water using soil includes a river water distribution part installed on the top of a soil layer and a processed water recovery part built in the soil layer and an alluvial layer(202). The water is purified while respectively passing the soil layer and the alluvial layer. The soli layer is classified into a first soil layer(203) and a second soil layer(205). The river water distribution part includes a first pump(111), a first conduit pipe(112), and a plurality of outlets(113). The processed water recovery part includes a first horizontal water collecting pipe(121), a second horizontal water collecting pipe(122), a perpendicular inlet well(123), and a second conduit pipe(124).
Abstract:
A method for remodeling an exiting sewage treatment system into an advanced treatment system and a method for operating the advanced treatment system are provided to remove nitrogen and phosphorous as well as organic materials contained in sewage, by installing a partition wall in an anaerobic tank so as to induce a biological reaction for removing the nitrogen and phosphorous and installing a separation membrane in an aerobic tank so as to produce treatment water. An exiting sewage treatment system includes an aerating tank(1) and a precipitating tank. For remodeling the exiting sewage treatment system into an advanced treatment system, firstly, a partition wall(7) is installed in an aerating tank(1) to divide the aerating tank into an anaerobic tank(8) and an aerobic tank(9). The precipitating tank is used as an equalizing tank(2') for equalizing the flow rate and the quality of sewage inputted into the precipitating tank. An immersion type separation membrane(10) is installed within the aerobic tank so as to suck and filter the sewage and discharge the filtered water. A concentration of MLSS(Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids) is maintained in a range of 4,000-20,000 mg/L within the aerobic tank. A chemical inputting unit(14) is installed at a portion before a region where a mixed liquid of activated sludge overflows from the anaerobic tank to the aerobic tank. The chemical inputting unit inputs a coagulant for inducing the coagulation of phosphorous.

PURPOSE: Provided are membrane coupled activated sludge reactor incorporating advanced oxidation process and process using the same, wherein activated sludge is decomposed by ozone oxidation and residual ozone is used for cleaning a membrane so as to continuously operate the sludge treatment apparatus and prevent clogging of the membrane, thereby preventing sludge discharge, expanding operation time of the membrane, and reducing maintenance cost for the membrane cleaning. CONSTITUTION: The apparatus comprises a bioreactor with a membrane(2) which is submerged, an ozone generator(5) for generating ozone, an ozone contact oxidation tank(6) for bringing the ozone generated by the ozone generator into contact with sludge(4), a treated water tank(9) for temporarily storing filtrate of the membrane(2) for bringing the filtrate into contact with residual ozone of the oxidation contact tank(6), and a back washing pipe line for transferring the filtrate mixed with the residual ozone(8) to the membrane(2) for washing the membrane(2). The method comprises the steps of (a) biologically treating wastewater using a bioreactor with a submerged membrane, (b) storing the treated water of the bioreactor to a treated water tank, (c) introducing sludge generated from the bioreactor to an ozone contact oxidation tank and decomposing the sludge by ozone oxidation, (d) introducing the decomposed sludge again to the bioreactor to use it as external nutrient, (e) introducing residual ozone which is remained after ozone oxidation in the ozone contact oxidation tank to the treated water tank to mix the ozone with the treated water, and (f) introducing the treated water with ozone into the membrane through a back washing pipe line for oxidizing and detaching pollutant attached onto pores of the membrane.
Abstract:
PURPOSE: A method for managing waste water without exhausting sludge includes a process which sludge is returned to biological treatment tank and a process which the sludge is reused for feeding microorganism. CONSTITUTION: Some part of sludge which is exhausted from second settling pond(21) are returned to aeration tank(22) without specific treatment. Remained sludge is reused as food for microorganism, so the sludge is disintegrated perfectly by biological treatment of microorganism. Microorganisms included sludge are destroyed by ionized gas or oxidation of oxidant. The method is composed of generator for ionized gas(31), disintegrating tank for sludge(32), circulation pump(33), and mixing device(34). The method is used for removing nitrogen and phosphorus, and sludge does not exhausted because the sludge is reused foe carbon source.
