  2. Rotating biological contactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_biological_contactor

    A rotating biological contactor is a type of secondary (biological) treatment process. It consists of a series of closely spaced, parallel discs mounted on a rotating shaft which is supported just above the surface of the wastewater. Microorganisms grow on the surface of the discs where biological degradation of the wastewater pollutants takes ...

  3. Membrane bioreactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_bioreactor

    Membrane bioreactors are combinations of membrane processes like microfiltration or ultrafiltration with a biological wastewater treatment process, the activated sludge process. These technologies are now widely used for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. [ 1] The two basic membrane bioreactor configurations are the submerged ...

  4. Moving bed biofilm reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_Bed_Biofilm_Reactor

    Moving bed biofilm reactor. Moving bed biofilm reactor ( MBBR) is a type of wastewater treatment process that was first invented by Professor Hallvard Ødegaard at Norwegian University of Science and Technology in the late 1980s. [ 1] The process takes place in an aeration tank with plastic carriers that a biofilm can grow on.

  5. Secondary treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_treatment

    Secondary treatment (mostly biological wastewater treatment) is the removal of biodegradable organic matter (in solution or suspension) from sewage or similar kinds of wastewater. [ 1]: 11 The aim is to achieve a certain degree of effluent quality in a sewage treatment plant suitable for the intended disposal or reuse option.

  6. Sanitary engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanitary_engineering

    Sanitary engineering, also known as public health engineering or wastewater engineering, is the application of engineering methods to improve sanitation of human communities, primarily by providing the removal and disposal of human waste, and in addition to the supply of safe potable water. Traditionally a branch of civil engineering and now a ...

  7. Industrial wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Industrial_wastewater_treatment

    t. e. Industrial wastewater treatment describes the processes used for treating wastewater that is produced by industries as an undesirable by-product. After treatment, the treated industrial wastewater (or effluent) may be reused or released to a sanitary sewer or to a surface water in the environment. Some industrial facilities generate ...

  8. Conventional wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conventional_wastewater...

    Conventional wastewater treatment refers to various methods of treating different categories of wastewater, and may include any of the following: Sewage treatmenttreatment and disposal of human waste. Industrial wastewater treatment – the treatment of wet wastes from manufacturing industry and commerce including mining, quarrying and ...

  9. Upflow anaerobic sludge blanket digestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upflow_anaerobic_sludge...

    Upflow anaerobic sludge blanket ( UASB) technology, normally referred to as UASB reactor, is a form of anaerobic digester that is used for wastewater treatment . The UASB reactor is a methanogenic (methane-producing) digester that evolved from the anaerobic clarigester. A similar but variant technology to UASB is the expanded granular sludge ...
