Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a plant for purifying water, especially household effluent, i.e. bath water, dish washing water and possibly effluent from toilets and the like.
  • Sewer purification normally comprises at least one or seve ⁇ ral of the following methods of purification: i.e. primary treatment, biological treatment, and chemical treatment, precipitated particles being removed either by sedimentation, flotation, filtration,ane. possibly by centrifugation as well.
  • the contaminants present are de ⁇ compose by microorganisms, beeing uniformly suspended in the water to be treated in so called activated sludge plants and in biological filters, where the microorganisms are present on the surface of a carrier that is contacted with the water to be treated.
  • certain chemicals are added that cause the contaminants to precipi ⁇ tate, whereafter they may be removed mechanically.
  • Suitable precipitants are soluble salts of tri- valent metals, e.g. iron or aluminium.
  • Purification of effluent will normally comprise the three above mentioned methods of purification in said sequence, i.e. mechanical treatment, biological treatment,and chemical treatment.
  • the sludge formed in the biological treatment of the effluent and from the chemical treatment also, has to be re-treated or conditioned before it is deposited.
  • Said re-treatment of precipitated sludge can be time consuming for small plants intended for private use, and the user can find it difficult to get rid of the sludge in a satisfactory manner.
  • a bio-filter generally only having a purification effect in the order of 25% as regards phosphorous, this would mean that approx. 75% of the supplied phosphates are discharged from the above mentioned combination plants.
  • the present purification plant which may suitably comprise a possibly separate deposition tank for effluent or the deposition tank may be a sedimentation tank, where pre- cipitants are added. It is, however, prefered to use a se ⁇ parate deposition tank which makes it easier to check the process.
  • the method comprises pumping effluent from the deposition tank into the precipitation tank, and in connection with this immediately adding precipitants, where ⁇ upon the effluent with added chemicals is left in said precipitation tank, so that the precipitated material can ' sink to the bottom of the approximately conical precipitation tank.
  • the precipitated sludge is pumped out of the precipitation tank and into a decomposition chamber for sludge, said chamber preferably being a compart ⁇ ment of a biological toilet, as further described below.
  • a decomposition chamber for sludge said chamber preferably being a compart ⁇ ment of a biological toilet, as further described below.
  • the treated effluent is discharged through an outlet provided at a suitable distance from the bottom of said precipitation tank.
  • the clarified water above said outlet can be discharged directly into a sewer pipe or a recipient, said treated water being substan ⁇ tially free from impurities that are harmful to the environ ⁇ ment, especially phosphates. Said water is, thus, deemed harmless as regards pollution.
  • the precipitants are added substantially at the same time as the effluent is transferred from the deposition tank to the precipitation tank, and the clarified water thas was treated with chemicals is, then, circulated across a biological filter.
  • said effluent may at first be treated across a biological filter and the precipitants may be added afterwards. It is possible to combine the sequence by adding precipitants, then circulated the clarified water across a biological filter and then adding further precipi ⁇ tants to cause a secondary precipitation.
  • the precipitated sludge in the precipitation tank is transferred to a decom ⁇ position chamber without any further treatment.
  • said chamber may preferably be a compartment of a multi- compartment biological toilet, e.g. of the kind described in NO-PS 128 957.
  • the multi-chamber biological toilet may advantageously be provided above the deposition tank and have a perforated bottom enabling excessive water being transferred with the pumped sludge to flow down and into said deposition tank. Excessive urine can also flow through the biological toilet into said deposition tank, so that there is no accumulation of urine in said biological toilet.
  • the deposition tank being provided below said biological toilet, the heat from the supplied effluent can be utilized to maintain suitable decomposition conditions in said bio ⁇ logical toilet.
  • the present method will now be described with reference to the attached drawing diagrammatically showing a plant for carrying out the present method.
  • the plant comprises a deposition tank 1 for effluent as well as strained water and excess urine, said strained water and excess urine coming from a multi-chamber biological toilet 2, provided above said plant and having a perforated bottom 11.
  • the deposition tank is sized to receive the waste water from the household where said plant is installed over a period of 12-24 hours.
  • the waste water from tank 1 is transferred through pipes 3, 3' by pumps PI to a precipitation tank 4, the lower portion of which 4* is conical to facilitate collection and concent ⁇ ration of the precipitated sludge.
  • chemicals are added by a pump from a container of chemicals K, e.g. via pipe 5 to pipe 3'. In this manner thorough mixture of effluent and the added chemicals, e.g. in the form of an aqueous solution of aluminium sulphate, is secured
  • Initiation of the pumping action for pumping effluent to the precipitation tank 4, and initiation of the pump for chemical may be controlled by a conventional time-lag relay or another suitable control system.
  • the transfer of effluent may either be time based or controlled by a level switch in the depo ⁇ sition tank (not shown) .
  • the three-way valve changes over and the clarified water in tank 4 is circulated by the aid of pump P3 through pipe 8, across biological filter 9, wherein a biological purification of the effluent is obtained.
  • Said biological filter is of a conventional kind, i.e. a filter provided with a filling having a large specific surface where an activated sludge may grow.
  • the effluent is circu ⁇ lated for 6 to 7 hours across said biological filter.
  • circulation pump 3 is stopped and the purified water is left for further 45 to 60 minutes.
  • Any solid particles and sludge can, thus, sink below the level of a discharge pipe 10, through which the purified and clarified water is discharged by a suitable pum (not shown) and a magnetic valve controlled by the control unit.
  • the pumped out clarified and purified water can, thus, be conducted directly to a municipal sewage or it may, if desired, be used for irrigation or the like.
  • Said deposition tank being provided below a biological toilet in the preferred embodiment, it is possible to connect one or several water closets of the kind that use a minimal amount of wash water to said biological toilet.
  • the utilized wash water will be filtrated through the perforated bottom of the biological toilet and flow down into said deposition tank, and after a retention period there of approx. 12 hours in the shown embodiment, the collected effluent will be transferred to the precipitation tank 4 for purification. In this manner the applicability of a biological toilet can be extended, since it is no longer necessary that faeces etc are supplied to the biological toilet via a straight drop tube.
  • the air generally extracted from a biofilter by a ventilator can in stead of being discharged into the atmosphere be conducted through the biofilter to enhance the biological purification.
  • Chamber 2 which in the embodiment described above is one of several chambers of a biological toilet, may naturally be any suitable tank, preferably provided above said deposition tank, and has a perforated bottom. Said perforated bottom may be covered with peat litter, conditioned bark of the kind that is used as a soil improving medium or the like, which will act as a filtering material for the sludge that is pumped out of the lower portion 4' of the precipitation tank 4.
  • the biological toilet shown in NO-PS No. 128 957 has a heat ⁇ ing element provided in its bottom to enhance the bacterio ⁇ logical disintegration of faeces and other solid waste.
  • a heating element can either be eliminated or the current consumption may be reduced as ⁇ _ is not necessary to use heat to evaporate the liquid tricklin through the inner container of the toilet.
  • Excessive liquid will now flow down into said deposition tank 1 and heat from the effluent in said deposition tank will both ensure an approximately correct temperature and a moist atmosphere in the biological toilet. It is, thus, possible to operate the biological toilet without supply of too much electric energy to maintain the correct temperature in said biological toilet.
  • the amount of supplied precipitants is determined empirically from the size of the plant and the load it is subjected to, and the concentration and composition of the supplied pre ⁇ cipitant is easily adapted to the actual conditions for obtaining an optimal precipitation, especially of the present phosphates.
  • the completery purified water that is discharged from the precipitation tank 4 via pipe 10 may be checked by the user as to its content of phosphates and its pH by simple methods of analysis generally based on a colorimetric measurement.
  • T r ⁇ G:._H_ approximately 12 hours later, before being discharged via pipe 10. It showed a total content of phosphorous of 0,68 mg/1, which is far below the present re ⁇ uirements as regards the content of phosphorous in effluent.
  • a plant as described above was tested in a household of 3 persons and all waste water from utility sinks etc. was conducted to the deposition container, whereas faeces, urine and kitchen waste were deposited in one of the chambers of a biological toilet of the kind described in NO-PS No. 128 957.
  • the sludge pumped from the precipitation tank was conducted to another one of the chambers of the biological toilet. Said sludge is disintegrated and turned into a soil like structure in the same manner as faeces and kitchen waste that is disintegrated in the other chamber of the biological toilet. After a suitable period of disintegration it may be used as a nutritious soil improving substance together with the residual disintegrated material from the biological toilet.
  • valves and pumps may be controlled by a suitable time relay or even better, by a programmable miro processor based unit, that is to day a standard commercially available product and is able to control a number of functions, e.g. the various pumps and valves necessary to carry out the above described method.
  • Another advantage of the present method and plant is that the biological filter will not degenerate during possible non-use due to a vacation, because liquid will be circulated across said biological filter as well as through the sludge collected in chamber 2 , so that the biological filter will neither dry up og "die” because of lack of nutrition.
  • the effluent transferred to tank 4' is cautiously agitated.
  • a cautious agitation or movement of the effluent in 0 tank 4' can be achieved by a heating element provided around a portion of the tank 4 ' or partly arranged within said tank.
  • This heating preferably by an external heating element can be controlled by the above mentioned time relay .
  • the heat induced agitation of the water may,thus, be maintained 5 for a suitable periode, e.g. for 20 to 60 minutes.
  • the present method and plant have the advantage that the biological filter will not dry up or "die” due to lack of nutrition when the users are absent, e. Q g. due to vacation.
