Technology description including background system
| The fully mixed activated sludge technology consists of the following processes:Intake and mixing: Wastewater is introduced into the treatment system and mixed thoroughly with activated sludge already present in the reactor.Biodegradation: The mixed wastewater comes into contact with the activated sludge in the reactor, where microorganisms degrade the organic substances in the wastewater into water and carbon dioxide.Sedimentation: The treated water is settled for a period of time so that the sludge particles settle to the bottom to form sludge deposits.Sludge Return: A part of the activated sludge that has settled is returned to the reactor to maintain the number and activity of microorganisms in the sludge.Clean Water Discharge: The treated water is discharged through the outlet and the clean water is released to the environment. |
