  DESCRIPTION

'INSTALLATION DE NITRIFICATION DES EAUX USEES"

  
La présente invention concerne une installation de nitrification biologique des eaux usées mettant en oeuvre le développement de microorganismes appropriés sur un support immergé dans l'eau à traiter.

  
L'élimination de l'azote des eaux résiduaires par les stations d'épuration peut être réalisée par différents procédés. Parmi ceux-ci, les procédés biologiques de nitrification et de dénitrification sont très utilisés vu leurs performances et leur fiabilité.

  
On rencontre deux techniques de mise en oeuvre de la nitrification biologique de l'azote, à savoir, les procédés à cultures bactériennes libres et ceux à cultures fixées.

  
Les cultures libres sont peu adaptées pour traiter des eaux à forte charge azotée et des eaux très diluées. Elles nécessitent un temps de démarrage et de redémarrage relativement long et elles ne conviennent donc pas dans le cas des stations à charge azotée variable. Enfin, dans le cas d'installations d'épuration ne disposant pas d'un circuit de recyclage des boues (c'est le cas du lagunage), les bactéries nitrifiantes sont lessivées continuellement. Leur taux de croissance étant faible, il s'ensuit une diminution de la biomasse active et donc du rendement épuratoire.

  
L'invention a pour objectif d'améliorer l'efficacité des cultures bactériennes fixées en mettant en oeuvre un dispositif simple et facilement adaptable aux besoins d'épuration particuliers.

  
A cet effet, on propose une installation de nitrification du genre défini ci-dessus présentant les caractéristiques reprises dans la partie caractérisante de la revendication 1.

  
L'invention est maintenant décrite ci-après en se référant à la figure de dessin qui illustre un exemple de réalisation de module représenté en perspective.

  
Comme représenté sur le dessin, le support consiste en un assemblage en forme de module parallélépipédique désigné dans son ensemble par la référence 1. Ce module se compose d'un cadre 2 soutenant de façon amovible ou non un certain nombre de panneaux 3 constitués par exemple de feuilles ondulées en matière plastique ou autre résistant mécaniquement ou chimiquement aux bactéries qui s'y fixent et au milieu ambiant. La matière plastique est par exemple du chlorure de polyvinyle, du polyéthylène, du polypropylène, et les panneaux sont distants de 0,05 à 4 cm les uns des autres, pour un module aux dimensions de 125 x 100 x 100 cm.

  
Le module 1 se trouve immergé dans l'eau à nitrifier laquelle est amenée à circuler à travers le module dans le sens indiqué par les flèches. La colonisation des panneaux par les bactéries nitrifiantes prend environ 6 semaines à 12[deg.]C.

  
La disposition modulaire permet la formation d'assemblage aussi grands que l'on veut par emboîtement ou fixation des modules entre eux par tout système approprié. On peut également adapter la grandeur du cadre des modules aux besoins particuliers et notamment à la géométrie des bassins récepteurs.

  
La disposition en panneaux présente une grande surface utile pour un volume réduit. Aucune infrastructure préalable n'est nécessaire pour la mise en place du ou des modules. Le module peut, en effet, être muni de flotteurs permettant son immersion à la profondeur voulue. L'absence de colmatage simplifie ou réduit à rien les opérations d'entretien.

  
Les panneaux ondulés représentés peuvent être remplacés par d'autres types de panneaux ajourés ou pleins, plats ou non en divers matériaux appropriés. 

REVENDICATIONS

  
1. Installation de nitrification des eaux usées mettant en oeuvre le développement de microorganismes appropriés sur un support immergé dans l'eau à traiter, caractérisé en ce que le support est constitué d'un assemblage de panneaux parallèles entre eux dans un plan vertical autorisant l'eau à traiter de s'écouler parallèlement aux panneaux.



  DESCRIPTION

'WASTEWATER NITRIFICATION PLANT'

  
The present invention relates to an installation for biological nitrification of wastewater using the development of appropriate microorganisms on a support immersed in the water to be treated.

  
The removal of nitrogen from waste water by treatment plants can be carried out by various methods. Among these, biological nitrification and denitrification processes are widely used given their performance and reliability.

  
There are two techniques for carrying out the biological nitrification of nitrogen, namely, processes with free bacterial cultures and those with fixed cultures.

  
Free crops are not very suitable for treating water with a high nitrogen load and very dilute water. They require a relatively long start-up and restart time and are therefore not suitable in the case of stations with variable nitrogen load. Finally, in the case of treatment plants that do not have a sludge recycling circuit (this is the case with lagooning), the nitrifying bacteria are continuously leached. Their growth rate being low, it follows a reduction in the active biomass and therefore in the purification yield.

  
The invention aims to improve the efficiency of fixed bacterial cultures by using a simple device that is easily adaptable to specific purification needs.

  
To this end, a nitrification installation of the kind defined above is proposed having the characteristics set out in the characterizing part of claim 1.

  
The invention is now described below with reference to the drawing figure which illustrates an exemplary embodiment of a module shown in perspective.

  
As shown in the drawing, the support consists of an assembly in the form of a parallelepipedic module generally designated by the reference 1. This module consists of a frame 2 releasably or not supporting a certain number of panels 3 constituted for example corrugated sheets of plastic or other material resistant mechanically or chemically to the bacteria which attach to it and to the ambient environment. The plastic material is for example polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, and the panels are spaced from 0.05 to 4 cm from each other, for a module with dimensions of 125 x 100 x 100 cm.

  
The module 1 is immersed in the water to be nitrified which is caused to flow through the module in the direction indicated by the arrows. Colonization of the panels by nitrifying bacteria takes about 6 weeks at 12 [deg.] C.

  
The modular arrangement allows the formation of assemblies as large as desired by nesting or fixing the modules together by any suitable system. It is also possible to adapt the size of the module framework to specific needs and in particular to the geometry of the receiving basins.

  
The arrangement in panels presents a large useful surface for a reduced volume. No prior infrastructure is necessary for the installation of the module (s). The module can, in fact, be fitted with floats allowing it to be immersed at the desired depth. The absence of clogging simplifies or reduces to nothing the maintenance operations.

  
The corrugated panels shown can be replaced by other types of perforated or solid panels, flat or not, in various suitable materials.

1. Installation for the nitrification of wastewater using the development of appropriate microorganisms on a support immersed in the water to be treated, characterized in that the support consists of an assembly of panels parallel to each other in a vertical plane allowing the water to be treated to flow parallel to the panels.
