  3. Wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastewater_treatment

    Sewage treatment (or domestic wastewater treatment, municipal wastewater treatment) is a type of wastewater treatment which aims to remove contaminants from sewage to produce an effluent that is suitable to discharge to the surrounding environment or an intended reuse application, thereby preventing water pollution from raw sewage discharges. [5]

  4. Membrane bioreactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_bioreactor

    Most wastewater treatment plants are operated in constant flux mode, and hence fouling phenomena are generally tracked via the variation of transmembrane pressure with time. In recent reviews covering membrane applications to bioreactors, it has been shown that, as with other membrane separation processes, membrane fouling is the most serious ...

  5. Facultative lagoon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facultative_lagoon

    Facultative lagoon (polishing pond) providing tertiary treatment after a constructed wetland in Hamburg-Allermöhe, Germany. Overflow from the facultative lagoon may be routed through one or more polishing ponds supporting lower populations of anaerobic micro-organisms and a higher proportion of aerobic organisms adapted to survival in lower concentrations of organic material.

  6. 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.

  7. Waste treatment technologies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste_treatment_technologies

    In Thailand, the total volume of the wastewater from industries is much greater than that of the domestic sewage. [2] As a result, an effective method is needed. Microbial remediation of xenobiotics has shown to be effective and the low-cost technology, but it still has several limitations.

  8. Electrocoagulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocoagulation

    Electrocoagulation (EC) is a technique used for wastewater treatment, wash water treatment, industrially processed water, and medical treatment. Electrocoagulation has become a rapidly growing area of wastewater treatment due to its ability to remove contaminants that are generally more difficult to remove by filtration or chemical treatment systems, such as emulsified oil, total petroleum ...

  9. Sanitary engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanitary_engineering

    An example of a wastewater treatment system. 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.
