WATER WASTE TREATMENT

by NARMITHA JAYAGOPAL | 17-09-2021 17:44 recommendations 1

During primary treatment, wastewater is temporarily held in a settling tank where heavier solids sink to the bottom while lighter solids float to the surface.
Once settled, these materials are held back while the remaining liquid is discharged or moved through to the more rigorous secondary phase of wastewater treatment.
These large tanks are also often equipped with mechanical scrapers that continually drive collected sludge in the base of the tank to a hopper which pumps it to sludge treatment facilities.

    Hello Narmitha, this is your mentor Hannah.
    Your article on how waste water is treated was very interesting.
    It was new to know that the treatment includes the phase separation.
    The tanks and pumps for waste water treatment will be huge, linking to great energy consumption. To decrease energy consumption we should decrease waste water consumption as well.

    Thank you for your great article and please keep up :)
