    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Activated_sludge

    Activated sludge tank at Beckton sewage treatment plant, UK.The white bubbles are due to the diffused air aeration system. The activated sludge process is a type of biological wastewater treatment process for treating sewage or industrial wastewaters using aeration and a biological floc composed of bacteria and protozoa.

  3. Aerobic treatment system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_treatment_system

    The aeration stage and the disinfecting stage are the primary differences from a traditional septic system; in fact, an aerobic treatment system can be used as a secondary treatment for septic tank effluent. [1] These stages increase the initial cost of the aerobic system, and also the maintenance requirements over the passive septic system.

  4. Septic tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septic_tank

    A septic tank is an underground chamber made of concrete, fiberglass, or plastic through which domestic wastewater flows for basic sewage treatment. [2] Settling and anaerobic digestion processes reduce solids and organics, but the treatment efficiency is only moderate (referred to as "primary treatment"). [2]

  5. Aerobic digestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_digestion

    Aerobic digestion is a process in sewage treatment designed to reduce the volume of sewage sludge and make it suitable [1] for subsequent use. [2] More recently, technology has been developed that allows the treatment and reduction of other [3] organic waste, such as food, cardboard and horticultural waste.

  6. Jet aerators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_aerators

    Jet aerators operating in a waste sludge tank at a paper mill. Jet aerators are applied across a wide range of water, wastewater and biosolids treatment applications. Their primary purpose is to transfer oxygen to the liquid or sludge. A Jet aerator works through aspirating technology by simultaneously introducing large volumes of high kinetic ...

  7. Rotating biological contactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_biological_contactor

    Aeration is provided by the rotating action, which exposes the media to the air after contacting them with the wastewater, facilitating the degradation of the pollutants being removed. The degree of wastewater treatment is related to the amount of media surface area and the quality and volume of the inflowing wastewater.
