  2. Continuous stirred-tank reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_stirred-tank...

    Diagram showing the setup of a continuous stirred-tank reactor. The continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR), also known as vat-or backmix reactor, mixed flow reactor (MFR), or a continuous-flow stirred-tank reactor (CFSTR), is a common model for a chemical reactor in chemical engineering and environmental engineering. A CSTR often refers to a ...

  3. Rotating biological contactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_biological_contactor

    The RBC process allows the wastewater to come in contact with a biological film in order to remove pollutants in the wastewater before discharge of the treated wastewater to the environment, usually a body of water (river, lake or ocean). A rotating biological contactor is a type of secondary (biological) treatment process.

  4. Maceration (sewage) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maceration_(sewage)

    Maceration can be achieved by using a chopper pump in the sewage lift station or at the wastewater treatment plant. [ 1 ] When the flush is triggered, wastewater flows into the macerator, and when the water level rises, pressure activates the unit, causing the stainless steel blades to rotate at 3,600 rpm, pulverizing the wastewater into fine ...

  5. Constructed wetland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constructed_wetland

    Effluent from a constructed wetland for greywater treatment at an ecological housing estate in Hamburg-Allermöhe, Germany Constructed wetland for domestic wastewater treatment in Bayawan City, Negros Oriental province, Philippines. A constructed wetland is an engineered sequence of water bodies designed to treat wastewater or storm water runoff.

  6. Parshall flume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parshall_flume

    Named after its creator, Dr. Ralph L. Parshall of the U.S. Soil Conservation Service, the Parshall flume is a fixed hydraulic structure used in measuring volumetric flow rate in surface water, industrial discharges, municipal sewer lines, and influent/effluent flows in wastewater treatment plants. The Parshall flume accelerates the flow by ...

  7. Industrial wastewater treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Industrial_wastewater_treatment

    An industrial wastewater treatment plant may include one or more of the following rather than the conventional treatment sequence of sewage treatment plants: An API oil-water separator, for removing separate phase oil from wastewater. [43]: 180 A clarifier, for removing solids from wastewater. [44]: 41–15

  8. Sedimentation (water treatment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Sedimentation_(water_treatment)

    The physical process of sedimentation (the act of depositing sediment) has applications in water treatment, whereby gravity acts to remove suspended solids from water. [1] Solid particles entrained by the turbulence of moving water may be removed naturally by sedimentation in the still water of lakes and oceans.

  9. Multidata Systems International - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multidata_Systems...

    The RTD Real Time Dosimetry product line includes 1D and 3D water phantoms (field analyzers) for measuring the output of a treatment machine as used in radiation therapy. Three-dimensional datasets are required for the commissioning of such treatment machines, for the subsequent modeling of the radiation beam in the treatment planning software ...
