Therefore, on the same day, the activated sludge extraction valve of the membrane separation activated sludge apparatus was opened, 5 L of activated sludge was extracted, and adjustment was made so that the membrane separation activated sludge treated water was replenished accordingly. The next day, activated sludge was collected, imaged with a microscope, and image processing was performed. As a result, the activated sludge amount was displayed as “28500” and no warning display was displayed.
- Example 1 In a fiber manufacturing wastewater treatment facility, one membrane-separated activated sludge device (the device configuration is the same as that in Example 1) different from that in Example 1 is installed, and at the same time as Example 1, the same filtration conditions (filtration flux 0) .5m 3 / m 2 / day, was started filtration operation in an air supply rate 27L / min / module).

- the water phase area Because the amount of suspended matter in the water phase calculated from the area ratio of the flock area below the fixed area surrounded by the water phase area is displayed as “25”, and the warning message “Please check the BOD / MLSS load” appears.
- the BOD was a low value of about 1 ⁇ 2 of the normal time.
- the membrane separation activated sludge tank was operated at the same filtration flow rate as before the BOD reduction, but the differential pressure gradually started to rise, and after 7 days, the differential pressure exceeding 5 kPa, which is the chemical washing standard, was exceeded.
- the differential pressure of the membrane exceeded the differential pressure of 5 kPa, which is the chemical washing standard, and leveled off at about 10 kPa. Therefore, it was decided to carry out chemical cleaning of the membrane once.
- the wastewater to be treated was switched to flow into the reserve tank, and membrane filtration and aeration were stopped. While the membrane was immersed in activated sludge, it was washed with 0.5% sodium hypochlorite for 2 hours. After the chemical washing, when the activated sludge in the tank was imaged, the image shown in FIG. 6 was obtained, the activated sludge amount was displayed as “28.5”, the aqueous phase suspended matter amount was displayed as “30”, and the “BOD / MLSS load” was displayed.
- a cationic polymer flocculant was added at a sludge dry weight ratio of about 1%, and after aeration for 2 hours, membrane filtration was resumed at 1/10 of the normal membrane filtration flow rate.
- the activated sludge was imaged, the image shown in FIG. 7 was obtained, the activated sludge amount was displayed as “28.8”, the water phase suspended solid amount was displayed as “10”, and the alarm display disappeared.
- the wastewater to be treated was switched to flow into the membrane separation active tank, returned to the normal filtration flow rate, and the membrane filtration operation was resumed. After restarting membrane filtration at the normal filtration flow rate, the activated sludge volume is "27" to "33” and the aqueous phase suspended solid volume is "5" to "10" at the 3 months of operation. Was not seen.

- the biological treatment conditions were set to 0.1 kg / kg ⁇ day as the BOD / MLSS load, the activated sludge capacity was 3 m 3 , and the activated sludge amount management reference range was 10,000 ⁇ 1000 mg / L.
- the administrator collects the activated sludge collected from the membrane-separated activated sludge tank 3 in order to monitor the state of activated sludge once a week, and the sewage test method (1997 version) (corporate association) Based on the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) measurement method described in the Japan Sewerage Association, the activated sludge is solid-liquid separated with glass fiber filter paper (Advantech Toyo, GC-25, nominal pore size 1 ⁇ m), and the residual solids are separated.
- glass fiber filter paper Advanced Technology Toyo, GC-25, nominal pore size 1 ⁇ m
- Example 2 Although it was stable at the beginning of operation, the production line was stopped by regular repair of the factory at the third month after the start of operation as in Example 2, and the membrane separation activated sludge was kept at a low BOD for about one week. Since the tank was operated at the same filtration flow rate as before the decrease in BOD, the differential pressure gradually increased and exceeded the differential pressure of 5 kPa as the chemical washing standard, as in Example 2.
- Example 2 this was also switched to allow the treated wastewater to flow into the preliminary tank, and filtration and aeration were stopped, and the membrane was washed with chemicals (2 hours).
- the membrane cleaning conditions and cleaning method were also the same as in Example 2.
- the administrator collects activated sludge, measures the activated sludge concentration (MLSS), and determines the amount of water phase suspended matter.
- MMS activated sludge concentration
- the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) was 9500 mg / L, and the amount of suspended solids was about 10 times that of stable operation, but there was a limit on the working time of the administrator, and the normal membrane filtration flow rate as it was, Filtration operation was resumed.
- the filtration differential pressure of the membrane started to increase and reached a differential pressure of 5 kPa, which is a chemical washing standard. Therefore, the filtration was unavoidably stopped, and only the aeration was performed, and the administrator returned home.
- the administrator collected activated sludge and measured the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) and the amount of suspended solids.
- the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) was 9500 mg / L, and the amount of the suspended aqueous phase was about 25 times that during stable operation. Therefore, as in Example 2, the administrator added a cationic polymer flocculant at a sludge dry weight ratio of about 1%, aerated for 2 hours, and then resumed membrane filtration at 1/10 of the normal membrane filtration flow rate. did.
- the differential filtration pressure of the membrane started to increase and reached the differential pressure of 5 kPa, which is the chemical washing standard, but there was a tendency to remain unchanged. This was thought to be due to the effect of the differential pressure increase on the previous day, and the filtration and aeration were stopped again and the membrane was washed with chemicals (2 hours).
- the administrator In order to check the state of activated sludge before resuming filtration after chemical washing, the administrator again collects activated sludge, measures the activated sludge concentration (MLSS), and fixes the amount of suspended solids with quantitative filter paper. The turbidity of the separated filtrate was measured with a turbidimeter.
- MMS activated sludge concentration
- the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) was 9500 mg / L, and the amount of suspended solids was about 10 times that of stable operation.
- the filtration operation was resumed at 1/10 of the above. Since the differential pressure did not increase even after a while, the wastewater to be treated was adjusted to flow into the membrane separation activated sludge tank and the rest into the spare tank only for 1/10 of the usual, and the manager returned home.
- the administrator collected activated sludge and measured the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) and the amount of suspended solids. About 2.5 hours later, it was found that the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) was 9500 mg / L, and the amount of the suspended aqueous phase was about 10 times that of the stable operation, which was the same as two days ago.
- MLSS activated sludge concentration
- Example 2 Compared to Example 2, in this tank, it takes time to measure the activated sludge concentration (MLSS) and the amount of suspended solids to confirm the activated sludge state, and the activated sludge state is getting worse. However, due to the manager's work time, the sludge condition improvement will be carried over to the next day, during which the aeration necessary for maintaining the activated sludge will be interrupted due to an oxygen shortage due to interruption, It is considered that the worsening of the activated sludge condition due to the lack of food due to the supply interruption caused the inability to restart the filtration operation.

- a diffuser pipe is installed under each membrane module. Air hits all the membrane elements that make up the module, thereby cleaning the membrane surface, and sludge cake (membrane deposit of activated sludge). The structure is difficult to deposit.
- the A-type membrane element in which the differential pressure increase was observed has a large area of sludge cake on the membrane surface compared to the B-type membrane element in which the differential pressure increase has not been observed, and there is sufficient air It was found that the cleaning was insufficient.
- the dissolved oxygen concentration in the activated sludge around the A system where the differential pressure was increased was as low as 0.1 to 0.5 mg / L, and partially blackened sludge was also observed.
- the dissolved oxygen concentration of the activated sludge around the B series where no differential pressure increase was observed was 1-2 mg / L, and the sludge color was brown.
- the cause of the decrease in the flow rate of the air pump of the A system was that the intake filter was dirty, and the air flow rate was recovered by replacing it.
- the B system was once pulled up from the tank, washed all the membrane elements with tap water, washed the air diffuser, replaced the air pump intake filter, and operated. Resumed.
- Example 3 In the same membrane separation activated sludge apparatus as in Comparative Example 3, the activated sludge collected from the membrane separation activated sludge tank 3 is then imaged by the optical means 41 and the camera 43 in the form shown in FIG. Management was performed using a management program that processed by the means 42 and compared with a judgment result compared with a preset management reference range and a warning when the management reference range was deviated.

膜分離活性汚泥槽の生物処理において、生物処理を安定化させるためには、流入する廃水1に含まれる有機物量とそれを分解する膜分離活性汚泥槽3における活性汚泥量とのバランスを一定に整えることが重要である。ここでいう有機物量とは、一般的な水質指標であるBOD(生物学的酸素要求量)やCOD(化学的酸素要求量)、もしくはTOC(全有機炭素量)で表されるものを用い、単位活性汚泥量あたりの負荷、例えばBOD/MLSS負荷を算出し、0.05~0.2kgBOD/kgMLSS・日程度、より好ましくは0.07~0.15kgBOD/kgMLSS・日程度に管理する。本実施形態によれば、(vi)水相領域に囲まれた一定面積以下のフロック領域の面積および/または水相領域またはフロック領域に対する面積比を監視し、フロック領域の面積や面積比が管理範囲を上回っている場合には、活性汚泥内の水相浮遊物が増加し汚泥状態が悪化していると判定し、警報として、例えば「BOD/MLSS負荷が管理範囲内であるか確認してください」と表示し、その表示内容に応じて、(A)被処理水である廃水1のBOD濃度や流入量や、(G)活性汚泥量が、適正範囲であるかを確認し、管理範囲を上回っている場合には、範囲内になるよう制御することが例示される。
膜分離活性汚泥法における一般的な活性汚泥量の管理範囲は3,000~25,000mg/Lで、より好ましくは7,000~18,000mg/L程度であり、(i)フロック領域の総面積が管理範囲を上回っている場合には、活性汚泥量が増加していると判定し、範囲内になるよう活性汚泥をひき抜き、(G)活性汚泥量を調節してもよい。
膜分離活性汚泥槽3から送液手段75により、活性汚泥70が活性汚泥搬送流路73を介して、架台71に載置された透明部材72で形成された評価流路74に送り込まれる。送液手段75は、送液量を制御する送液制御手段(図示しない)を備えている。送液手段75は事前に図示しない容器に採取した活性汚泥70を送液するようにしてもよく、膜分離活性汚泥槽3に設置した可動式の採取口53を介して採取してもよい。送液制御手段は、円滑に活性汚泥70を送り込むことが出来れば特に限定されないが、加速や減速または一定速度で送液するなど速度を選択できることが好ましく、撮像時、送液を一定時間停止するのが好ましい。撮像時に送液を一定時間停止する代わりに、評価流路74の両端(活性汚泥の入り口と出口)を物理的に閉塞してもよい。物理的に閉塞するために、例えば、透明流路の両端に電磁弁を設けてもよい。送液手段75は、外部からの電気信号によって送液や停止、または送液速度を制御できるポンプなどが望ましいがこれに限定されるものではない。撮像時には、活性汚泥の送液を一時停止して一定時間放置、あるいは、一時的に、評価流路74の入り口側と出口側を塞ぐ電磁弁などの物理的閉塞手段を用いて、活性汚泥70の流れを止めて撮像する。このように、活性汚泥70の流れが停止している状態で撮像することで、精度よく、フロック領域と水相領域を区別し、水相の浮遊物量を検知する。
透明部材72で挟む方向は上下方向に評価流路74の面に光が通過するように、評価流路74を挟んで、光源41cと観察および撮像するためのレンズ41aおよびカメラ43とを設け、適正な位置になるよう位相差・明視野切替・光学フィルタ手段41bの位置を調整する。光源41cからの光は、図中に矢印で示すように、位相差・明視野切替・光学フィルタ手段41b、評価流路74を構成する透明部材72、活性汚泥70を透過する。この光をレンズ41aが取り付けられたカメラ43で撮像する。カメラ43が取得した撮像画像は画像処理手段42に送られる。レンズ41aは必要な倍率、視野を確保できれば特に限定されるものではないが、フロックと水相浮遊物のサイズに適した倍率の対物レンズを用いるのが好ましく、それぞれ目的に応じて、倍率の異なるレンズを用いてもよい。位相差・明視野切替・光学フィルタ手段41bは、位相差画像と明視野画像とを切り替えて観察できるように、リングスリット、位相差板、専用対物レンズなどで構成されている。位相差画像を撮像する場合には、リングスリット、位相差板、専用対物レンズなどを通して観察し、明視野画像を撮像する場合には、リングスリット、位相差板、専用対物レンズなどを通さずに観察する。位相差・明視野切替・光学フィルタ手段41bは、電気信号によって切り替えを制御しても、観察者が任意のタイミングで手動により切り替えても良い。さらに、図示はしないが、評価流路において光を通過可能な面を上下左右複数方向に設け、通過させる光を複数方向からあててもよく、カメラ43で複数方向から撮像できる態様でもよい。評価流路を他方向から撮像しやすくするため、観察用治具自体もしくは評価流路を回転可能な構造にしてもかまわない。
繊維製造廃水処理施設において、図1A~図1Cに示す膜分離活性汚泥装置(幅0.1m、奥行0.4m、高さ0.8m、槽容積0.03m3)、平膜エレメント(幅0.15m×高さ0.15m、有効膜面積0.029m2、ポリフッ化ビニリデン製)6枚を設置し、ろ過条件(ろ過流束0.5m3/m2/日、エア供給量27L/min/モジュール)でろ過運転を開始した。
従来の活性汚泥濃度(MLSS)を用いた方法との互換性をもたせるために、フロック領域の総面積と換算活性汚泥濃度(MLSS)の相関関係を記述した検量線を用いて換算も実施したが、得られた換算値と想定した値に矛盾はなく、本発明の画像から得られた管理パラメータが妥当であることがわかった。
繊維製造廃水処理施設において、実施例1とは別の膜分離活性汚泥装置(装置構成は実施例1と同じもの)を1台設置し、実施例1と同時に、同じろ過条件(ろ過流束0.5m3/m2/日、エア供給量27L/min/モジュール)でろ過運転を開始した。生物処理条件についても実施例1と同様に、BOD/MLSS負荷として0.1kg/kg・日とし、活性汚泥濃度(MLSS)管理基準範囲は10000±1000mg/Lとした。
繊維製造廃水処理施設において、図1A~図1Cに示す膜分離活性汚泥装置(幅2m、奥行1m、高さ3m、槽容積6m3)、平膜エレメント(幅0.5m×高さ1.4m、有効膜面積1.4m2、ポリフッ化ビニリデン製)100枚を、2台並べて設置し、ろ過条件(ろ過流束0.4m3/m2/日、エア供給量27L/min/モジュール)でろ過運転を開始した。
2台のうち1台の膜分離活性汚泥装置については、運転期間中、1回/日の頻度で、図2に示す形態で、膜分離活性汚泥槽3から採取した活性汚泥を光学的手段41とカメラ43で撮像後、撮像した画像を画像処理手段42で処理し、画像を使った管理パラメータである(i)フロック領域総面積から活性汚泥量を、(vi)水相領域に囲まれた一定面積以下のフロック領域の水相領域に対する面積比から水相浮遊物量を算出し、予め設定した管理基準範囲と比較した判定結果と、管理基準範囲を逸脱した場合には警報を表示する管理プログラムを用いて管理を行った。
通常のろ過流量で膜ろ過を再開した後、運転3ヶ月時点で、活性汚泥量は「27」~「33」、水相浮遊物量は「5」~「10」であり、膜の差圧上昇は見られなかった。
繊維製造廃水処理施設に設置した2台のうち残り1台の膜分離活性汚泥装置を用いて、実施例2と同様のろ過条件(ろ過流束0.4m3/m2/日、エア供給量27L/min/モジュール)でろ過運転を開始した。生物処理条件も、実施例2と同様に、BOD/MLSS負荷として0.1kg/kg・日とし、活性汚泥容量3m3、活性汚泥量管理基準範囲は10000±1000mg/Lとした。
高分子樹脂製造廃水処理施設において、図1A~図1Cに示す膜分離活性汚泥装置(幅2.5m、奥行10m、高さ3m、槽容積75m3)、平膜エレメント(幅0.5m×高さ1.4m、有効膜面積1.4m2、ポリフッ化ビニリデン製)100枚からなる膜モジュールを10台設置し、ろ過条件(ろ過流束0.4m3/m2/日、エア供給量27L/min/モジュール)でろ過運転を開始した。
比較例3と同じ膜分離活性汚泥装置において、その後、図2に示す形態で、膜分離活性汚泥槽3から採取した活性汚泥を光学的手段41とカメラ43で撮像後、撮像した画像を画像処理手段42で処理し、予め設定した管理基準範囲と比較した判定結果と、管理基準範囲を逸脱した場合には警報を表示する管理プログラムを用いて管理を行った。
このように、活性汚泥を撮像し、連続的に監視することで、膜ろ過差圧上昇する前に、エアーポンプおよび散気管の保守管理が可能となる。
