Definitions
- This invention relates to a system and method for enhancing a wastewater treatment process.
- Municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities often include primary, secondary and tertiary processes to treat wastewater to remove contaminants, such as suspended solids, biodegradable organics, phosphorus, nitrogen, microbiological contaminants, and the like, to provide a clean effluent.
- the clean effluent is typically subject to strict local, state and federal regulations.
- the primary treatment processes often includes screens, grit chambers and/or primary clarifiers to remove large solids and other suspended matter to provide a primary effluent.
- Activated sludge is one type of secondary process which utilizes a biological reactor(s) which contains a large population of microorganisms that ingest contaminants in the primary effluent to form biological "floes.” Oxygen is typically fed into the biological reactor(s) to promote growth of these biological floes.
- the combination of primary effluent, or in some cases raw sewage, and biological floes, is commonly known as mixed liquor.
- the population or concentration of microorganisms in the mixed liquor is often referred to as mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS).
- the biological floes in the mixed liquor are then typically sent to a secondary clarifier where the biological floes are separated by gravity from the mixed liquor to provide a secondary effluent and a settled sludge.
- the secondary effluent, or "clean" effluent may be discharged back to the environment or processed by additional tertiary treatment processes.
- the majority of the settled sludge in the secondary clarifier is typically recycled back to the biological reactor by a return activated sludge subsystem. The remaining, excess sludge is wasted from the system to control the concentration of mixed liquor suspended solids.
- the secondary clarifier of a typical activated sludge process is often the bottleneck in most wastewater treatment processes that utilize activated sludge as a secondary process.
- the crucial solids separation step of the biological floes from the mixed liquor in the secondary clarifier is therefore typically the rate limiting process which is governed by a variety of factors, most notably the specific gravity, or density, of the biological floes.
- solids separation in the secondary clarifier in a typical activated sludge processes may be unreliable due to the many types of settling problems that are caused by inter alia: overgrowth of filamentous organisms, viscous bulking caused by the overgrowth of either zoogleal organisms or exocellular polysaccharide material, pin floe, straggler floe, excessive solids loading on the secondary clarifiers, excessive secondary clarifier surface overflow rate, and the like.
- Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) systems may also be used to treat wastewater.
- a typical conventional SBR system includes one or more sequencing batch reactors which contains a large population of microorgamsms that ingest contaminants in the influent wastewater to form biological floes and treat the wastewater.
- the biological floes settle slowly because they are only marginally heavier than water.
- the solids separation in the settling phase is also unreliable due to the many types of settling problems discussed above. This can result in reduced treatment capacity and/or compromised effective quality.
- Another method of treating wastewater is to use an anaerobic treatment reactor.
- the anaerobic treatment reactor creates an anaerobic environment which contains a population of microorganisms that ingest contaminants in the influent wastewater to form biological floes and treat the wastewater.
- the wastewater is typically fed near the bottom of the anaerobic treatment reactor and into a sludge blanket where the microorganisms consume the waste therein.
- wastewater fed into the bottom of the anaerobic treatment reactor flows upward through the anaerobic sludge blanket to treat the wastewater.
- microorganisms in the treated effluent which may compromise the quality of the treated effluent.

- System 10 for enhancing a wastewater treatment process of this invention.
- System 10 may be used to enhance wastewater treatment processes, including, inter alia, activated sludge wastewater treatment processes, SBR processes, anaerobic treatment reactor processes, or any other similar type wastewater treatment processes.
- system 10 includes at least one biological reactor 12, e.g., an aeration tank, which receives a flow of wastewater 14 by line 16.
- Biological reactor 12 preferably introduces dissolved oxygen 18 by line 20 exposed to ambient air 22 to a population of microorganisms to promote growth of biological floes 23 in mixed liquor 24.
- Mixed liquor 24 is typically a combination of wastewater 14 and biological floes 23 and may be defined by a concentration of mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS).
- system 10 may also be used to enhance an anaerobic treatment process.
- biological reactor 12 is configured as an anaerobic treatment reactor. To do this, no oxygen is introduced to reactor 12 and an anaerobic environment is created therein.
- System 10 also includes weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26 which, in one embodiment, preferably includes weighting agent storage tank 34 coupled to line 36, weighting agent impregnation tank 28, and mixer 30.
- Weighting agent impregnation tank 28 receives mixed liquor 24 from biological reactor 12 by line 32 or settled sludge from the bottom of biological reactor 12 via line 77.
- Impregnation tank 28 preferably receives virgin weighting agent 33, e.g., from weighting agent storage tank 34 by line 36, as shown at 35, and/or recycled weighting agent 38 from weight agent recovery subsystem 74.
- weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26 preferably includes weighting agent feeder subsystem 110 configured to control the delivery rate of virgin weighting agent 33 to weighting agent impregnation tank 28.
- Weighting agent feeder subsystem 110 typically includes pneumatic feeder subsystem 112 which includes porous media 114, e.g., a plurality of stainless steel screens disposed on selected areas of the inside of weighting agent storage tank 34, e.g., areas 116 and 118 at the bottom of weighting agent storage tank 34. Porous media 114 is also preferably disposed on the inside of line 36.
- pneumatic feeder subsystem 110 is configured to regulate supply of compressed air 120 by lines 121 to the porous media 114 in tank 34 and in line 36 to regulate the delivery rate of weighting agent 33 delivered to weighting agent impregnation tank 28.
- porous media 114 may be a porous 316 stainless steel material with an ultra-smooth finished contact surface made for precise control of permeability and strength.
- Porous media 114 produces an evenly distributed layer of air 120 that fluidizes weighting agent 33 in areas 116 and 118 of storage tank 34 and in line 36 above porous media 114.
- the boundary layer above porous media 114 reduces buildup, friction, and wear. It also makes weighting agent 33 easier to convey by eliminating compaction and drag of weighting agent 33 in areas 116 and 118 of storage tank 34 and in line 36.
- One example of pneumatic feeder subsystem is available from Young Industries (Muncie, PA).
- the delivery rate of weighting agent 33 to weighting agent impregnation tank 28, Fig. 1, is controlled by regulating the amount of air 120, Fig. 2, delivered by lines 121 to porous media 114.
- Higher rates of weighting agent 33 delivered to weighting agent impregnation tank 28 may be used for initially impregnating the entire population of biological floes 23 in biological reactor 12 and a secondary clarifier (discussed below) with weighting agent. Thereafter, a maintenance dose of weighting agent 33 may be supplied to weighting agent impregnation tank 28 to maintain a desired concentration of weighting agent.
- Mixer 30 mixes the mixed liquor or the settled sludge in tank 28 with virgin weighting agent 33 and/or the recycled weighting agent 38 to impregnate the weighting agent into the biological floes in mixed liquor or the settled sludge to form weighted biological floes.
- Mixer 30 preferably utilizes a mixing energy sufficient to impregnate the weighting agent into biological floes suspended in a mixed liquor or the settled sludge to form weighted biological floes.
- the weighted biological floes in tank 28 are then sent back to biological reactor 12 by line 37.
- the treated secondary effluent 50 exits reactor 12 by line 51.
- Fig. 3 shows a microscopic view of one example of biological floes 23 impregnated with virgin weighting agent 33 and recycled weighting agent 38 to form weighted biological floe 25.
- weighted biological floes generated by weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26 have a greater specific gravity than non-impregnated biological floes, they settle faster than non-impregnated biological floes.
- the time needed to separate weighted biological floes from the mixed liquor of system 10 is reduced when compared to a conventional activated sludge wastewater treatment system or SBR system.
- the weighted sludge blanket of an anaerobic treatment system is also more compact and dense and therefore can handle higher flow rates and is not as diffuse. The result is system 10 can substantially increase the capacity of such wastewater systems while providing a high quality treated effluent.
- weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26' may be configured as venturi
- mixer/eductor 27 having nozzle 31 and funnel 45 which receives virgin weighting agent 33, e.g., from tank 34 by line 36, and/or recycled weighting agent 38 from separator 78.
- Weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26' may also include pneumatic feeder subsystem 110, similar as discussed above with reference to Fig. 2 for controlling the delivery rate of weighting agent 33 to funnel 45, Fig. 4.
- Venturi mixer/eductor 27 preferably receives mixed liquor by line 32 or settled sludge by line 77, as shown in Fig. 1,
- the velocity of mixed liquor in line 32 or the settled sludge in line 77 is increased through nozzle 31.
- Virgin weighting agent 33 and/or recycled weighting agent 38 in funnel 45 enters nozzle 31 by line 39 and travels downstream to line 37.
- the widening of line 37 at 41 induces intimate mixing and entrainment, as shown at 43.
- This impregnates the virgin and/or recycled weighting agent into the biological floes to form weighted biological floes.
- the weighted biological floes are then returned to biological reactor 12 by line 37, as shown in Fig. 1.
- the weighting agent may be magnetite, or any similar type weighting agent or magnetically separable inorganic material known to those skilled in the art which increases the density of the biological floes when impregnated therein.
- the majority of the weighting agent has a particle size less than about 100 ⁇ . In other examples, the majority of the weighting agent particles have a size less than about 40 um or less than about 20 urn.
- System 10, Fig. 1 also includes weighting agent recovery subsystem 74 which receives settled sludge from biological reactor 12 by line 76.
- Weighting agent recovery subsystem 74 preferably includes separator subsystem 78 which recovers the weighting agent from the weighted biological floes in the settled sludge in line 76 and reintroduces (recycles) weighting agent 38 to weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26, 26', Figs. 1 and 4.
- separator subsystem 78 may be configured as shear mill 112, Fig. 5A, which shears the sludge in line 76 to separate the weighting agent from the weighted biological floes.
- Shear mill 112 ideally includes rotor 80 and stator 82. In operation, the settled sludge in line 76 enters shear mill 112 and flows in the direction of arrows 180 and enters rotor 80 and then stator 82.
- Shear mill 112 is designed such that there is a close tolerance between rotor 80, Fig. 5B and stator 82, as shown at 83.
- Rotor 80 is preferably driven at high speeds, e.g., greater than about 1,000 r.p.m.
- rotor 80, Figs. 5A-5C, and/or stator 82 includes slots which function as a centrifugal pump to draw the settled sludge from above and below rotor 80 and stator 82, as shown by paths 182, 183, Fig.
- rotor 80 may include slots 186 and stator 82 may include slots 188. Slots 186 in rotor 80 and/or slots 188 in stator 82 are preferably optimized to increase shear energy to efficiently separate the weighting agent from the weighted biological floes.
- the shear developed by rotor 80 and stator 82 depends on the width of slots 186 and 188, the tolerance between rotor 80 and stator 82, and the rotor tip speed. In one example, rotor 80 is driven at about 9,000 ft/min. The result is shear mill 112 provides a shearing effect which effectively and efficiently separates the weighting agent from the weighted biological floes to facilitate recovery of the weighting agent.
- separator subsystem 78 may be configured as ultrasonic separator 116.
- Ultrasonic separator 116 typically includes one or more ultrasonic transducers, e.g., ultrasonic transducer 262, 264, 266, 268, and/or 270, available from Hielscher Ultrasonics GmbH, Stuttgart, Germany, which generates fluctuations of pressure and cavitation in the settled sludge in line 76. This results in microturbulences that produce a shearing effect to create a mixture of weighting agent and obliterated floes to effectively separate the weighting agent from the weighted biological floes in the settled sludge. The resulting mixture of weighting agent and obliterated floes exits ultrasonic separator 116 by line 79.
- separator subsystem 78 may be configured as centrifugal separator 118.
- Centrifugal separator 114 typically includes cylindrical section 302 located at the top of hydrocyclone 300 and conical base 304 located below section 302. The settled sludge in line 76 is fed tangentially into cylindrical section 302 via port 303. Smaller exit port 306 (underflow or reject port) is located at the bottom of conical section 304 and larger exit port 308 (overflow or accept port) is located at the top of cylindrical section 302.
- the centrifugal force created by the tangential feed of the sludge by port 303 causes the denser weighting agent to be separated from the weighted biological floes in the settled sludge.
- the separated weighting agent is expelled against wall 308 of conical section 304 and exits at port 306. This effectively separates the weighting agent from the weighted biological floes.
- the recovered weighting agent 38 exits via port 306 and may be deposited to weighting agent impregnation system 26, 26', Figs. 1 and 4.
- the less dense biological fiocs remain in the sludge and exit via port 308 through tube 310 extending slightly into the body of the center of centrifugal separator 118.
- separator subsystem 78 may be configured as a shear mill, an ultrasonic separator, or a centrifugal separator, this is not a necessary limitation of this invention. In other designs, separator subsystem 78 may be configured as a tubular bowl, a chamber bowl, an imperforate basket, a disk stack separator, and the like, as known by those skilled in the art.
- wet drum magnetic separator 81 Fig. 8, or centrifugal separator 118, Fig. 7, may be used to recover the weighting agent therefrom. Further details of the design and operation of wet drum magnetic separator 81 are disclosed in co-pending application U.S. Publication No. 2008/0164184, entitled “Fluidic Sealing System For a Wet Drum Magnetic Separator", and U.S. Publication No. 2008/016483, entitled “Collection System for a Rotating Wet Drum Magnetic Separator", both incorporated by reference herein.
- separator subsystem 78, Fig. 6 is configured as an ultrasonic separator 116 to create the mixture of weighting agent and obliterated biological floes
- wet drum magnetic separator 81, Fig. 8, or centrifugal separator 118, Fig. 7 may be used to recover the weighting agent therefrom.
- System 10, Fig. 1 may also include wasting subsystem 83 which wastes the remaining settled sludge of separator subsystem 78 to control the population of the microorganisms in mixed liquor 24 in biological reactor 12.
- system 10' in another embodiment, includes biological reactor 12, weighting impregnation subsystem 26 and/or weighting impregnation subsystem 26', Fig. 4, and weighting agent recovery subsystem 74 with separator subsystem 78, which function similar as discussed above with reference to Figs. 1-8.
- system 10' also includes flocculant injection subsystem 42, typically located downstream from biological reactor 12, although flocculant injection subsystem 42 may be at any desired location in system 10.
- flocculant injection subsystem introduces flocculant 44 into mixed liquor 24 by line 135.
- Flocculant 44 enhances settling and thickening of the weighted biological floes suspended in mixed liquor 24 in secondary clarifier 46 and establishes agglomeration of non-impregnated biological floes and/or partially impregnated biological floes with the weighted biological floes in secondary clarifier 46.
- flocculant 44 may be cationic or anionic polymer, such as Drewfloc ® 2270 (Ashland Chemical, New Jersey), or any similar type polymer known to those skilled in the art.
- the agglomeration of non-impregnated biological floes and/or partially impregnated floes with the weighted biological floes makes larger weighted biological floes to provide for rapid settling of the weighted biological floes in settling zone 64 of clarifier 46.
- Flocculant 44 also enhances settling and thickening of the weighted biological floes in thickening zone 66 of clarifier 46 by reducing the size of, and increasing the density of, the weighted biological floes.
- System 10' also preferably includes secondary clarifier 46 which may be used to separate and collect the weighted biological floes from the mixed liquor.
- secondary clarifier 46 may be used to separate and collect the weighted biological floes from the mixed liquor.
- a rake or siphon (draft tube) subsystem 67 is used to remove settled sludge 54 at bottom 69 of clarifier 46. Because the weighted biological floes have a greater specific gravity than non-impregnated biological floes, they settle faster in secondary clarifier 46 than non-impregnated biological floes utilized in a typical system for an activated sludge process. Thus, secondary clarifier 46 effectively and efficiently separates the weighted biological floes from the mixed liquor to provide secondary effluent 50'.
- System 10' may also include return activated sludge subsystem 70 which recycles the majority of settled sludge 54 in secondary clarifier 42 to biological reactor 12 by line 72 using pump 47 and/or sends the settled sludge 54 to weighting impregnation subsystem 26, 26' via line 119.
- return activated sludge subsystem 70 recycles the majority of settled sludge 54 in secondary clarifier 42 to biological reactor 12 by line 72 using pump 47 and/or sends the settled sludge 54 to weighting impregnation subsystem 26, 26' via line 119.
- the capacity of system 10', Figs. 1-9, to process wastewater 14 may be increased by increasing the concentration of the MLSS in biological reactor 12 by reducing the amount of settled sludge wasted by wasting subsystem 83.
- the amount of settled sludge wasted by wasting subsystem 83 may also be reduced to increase the concentration of MLSS in aeration tank 12 to enhance nitrification of ammonia in mixed liquor 24.
- the nitrification process may also be further enhanced by increasing the amount of dissolved oxygen 18 introduced to biological reactor 12 by line 20.
- Coagulant 88 maybe added to biological reactor 12, as shown at 90 or to weighting agent impregnation tank 28, as shown at 94, for removing phosphorus and other contaminants from mixed liquor 24 by precipitation and/or coagulation, as known by those skilled in the art.
- coagulant 88 may be added to flocculant injection port 42, Fig. 9, as shown at 92, to remove phosphorus by
- coagulant 88 may be added to weighting agent impregnation tank 28, Figs. 1 and 9, as shown at 94, or to venture mixer/eductor 27, Fig. 4, as shown at 103, for removing phosphorus by precipitation and/or coagulation.
- the ratio of the weighting agent, e.g., magnetite or similar type materials known to those skilled in the art, to mixed liquor and/or settled sludge may be greater than about 1.5 to 1.0.
- secondary effluent 50 has a suspended solid concentration of less than about 30 mg/L, which may meet local, state, and federal guidelines for secondary effluent 50.
- System 10 may include biological reactor 12', e.g., an aeration tank, having anoxic zone 87 with mixer 91 configured to remove nitrogen from mixed liquor 24.
- recycle line 100 connected to line 135 recycles mixed liquor 24 to anoxic zone 87, as shown by arrows 101.
- Biological reactor 12' may also include anaerobic zone 93 with mixer 95 configured to remove phosphorus from the mixed liquor 24
- line 72 of return activated sludge subsystem 70 recycles the settled sludge to anaerobic zone 84.
- Many other possible biological nutrient removal configurations may be utilized, as known to those skilled in the art.
- system 10 includes weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26, 26' which receives mixed liquor from biological reactor 12 and then dispenses the weighted biological floes back into the biological reactor, this is not a necessary limitation of this invention.
- weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26, 26' may receive mixed liquor from biological reactor 12 and dispense the weighted biological floes between biological reactor and the secondary clarifier.
- system 10"', Fig. 11, where like parts have been given like numbers may include weighting impregnation subsystem 26, 26', similar as discussed above with reference to Figs. 1 and 4, which dispenses the weighted biological floes to line 137 between biological reactor 12 and clarifier 46.
- weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26, 26' may be located between the biological reactor and the secondary clarifier.
- system 10 Fig. 12, where like parts have been given like numbers, includes weighting agent impregnation subsystem 26, 26' located between biological reactor 12 and clarifier 46.
- wastewater 14 may be from a brewery processing system or similar type processing system which has a high concentration of biodegradable organic matter in the incoming wastewater 14.
- system 10 IV may not need return activated sludge subsystem 70, a shown in Fig. 9, because enough organisms are grown from the removal of influent organic matter to maintain a suitable population of microorganisms in the mixed liquor 24.
- the method for enhancing a wastewater treatment process includes receiving a flow of wastewater in at last one biological reactor, step 200, Fig. 13.
- Biological floes are then formed in the biological reactor, step 202.
- Weighting agent is then impregnated into the biological floes to form weighted biological floes, step 204.
- the weighting agent is then recovered and reintroduced to step 204, step 206.
- steps 200-206 are discussed in detail above with reference to Figs. 1-9.
