On the basis of the computerized technological process control of sewage treatment in a urban sewage treatment plant in the Zone of Nanning, the author had brought forward a plan of PROFIBUS that based on automatic control system for sewage treatment, and designed the automatic control system diagram and the PROFIBUS network diagram for sewage treatment plant. At the same time, the author also made a study of techniques to control the sewage aeration, which was the most difficult problem in sewage treatment process. The fuzzy controller could indicate the changes of the water quality in treated sewage, effectively controlled the volume of aeration and then cut down the operation costs,it had produced good economic and social benefits.

By treating the secondary effluent of Sanbaotun sewage treatment plant in Fushun with the CS type UV Sterilizer, the experiment researches the influence on the removal rate which includes the factors of turbidity, chromaticity, initial E.coli concentration of raw water, UV dose. The results show that the turbidity does not influence on UV disinfection efficiency with the turbidity from 1.5NTU to 3.8NTU. In the low-dose UV disinfection process, the influent sewage turbidity should under 4NTU to ensure the disinfection efficiency. Low chromaticity does not affect the UV disinfection efficiency, with the influent sewage chromaticity is under 15 degrees.The initial E. coli has a certain impact on little doses of UV disinfection with the concentration from 175 × 104 A/ L to 230 × 104 A/ L, no impact on high doses of UV disinfection。

Anode Supported Cell

A biogas coming from anaerobic digestion of urban sewage has been used to feed a SOFC planar anode-supported cell. The sewage is produced from the urban area of Torino (IT), and eventually collected and treated by SMAT (the municipal company managing the potable and waste water of the city). The biogas is produced by the thermophilic fermentation of the sludge which remains after the several treatments the sewage goes through in the above-mentioned plant. The biogas is of a high quality: it has on average a a methane content around 65% (the balance being essentially CO2), and the only significant impurity measured is H2S in a range of 70–80 ppm. The as-produced biogas has been used for feeding a planar Ni-YSZ anode-supported SOFC with a LSCF cathode. The biogas desulphurization was accomplished flowing the gas in a fixed-bed reactor, filled with activated. The fuel processing with POX has been assessed to avoid carbon deposition into the Ni-YSZ anode and convert the CH4 into H2 and CO. Short tests to check for eventual anode degradation were performed under typical operating conditions. The cell voltage was always stable under load with the tested mixtures. A cell electrical efficiency around 45% has been measured at 800°C and 80% FU. System simulations have performed as well to assess the whole system configuration under a biogas feeding. Optimization routines have been implemented to predict the best net AC efficiency achievable by a SOFC system running on biogas. Additional considerations on the management of poor LHV biogas mixture have been also assessed, showing how dry-reforming of CH4 with the CO2 already available in the biogas stream would be an excellent option needed to be investigated with further detail in the next future.

Cod Removal Rate

The general existing low temperature problem in winter of north-city sewage treatment plant in the process of waste water treatment seriously affect the efficiency of the work. The research objective of this paper is to conduct investigate in the application of AICS method in Jilin Province, a sewage treatment plant engineering example has been employed to monitor the effluent of the indicators of sewage treatment under the low temperature condition during the winter the winter low temperature under the condition of sewage treatment plant effluent of the indicators; to understand the operation situation of sewage treatment plant, and to study the efficiency of hydrolysis - AICS processing waste-water. The result shows that: hydrolysis - AICS process works well in low temperature condition, the per TN removal rate is 76.79%, average removal rate of NH3 - N is 85.76%, average TP removal rate was 93.4%, the average COD removal rate was 90.6%. The effluent meet the national level A discharge standard requirements of "urban sewage treatment plant pollutant discharge standard". And through the retrenchment of the second pond and other ancillary equipment, Hydrolysis-AICS process could efficiently reduce the costs. Besides, the advantages of Hydrolysis-AICS process also include occupying small area, and operating easily and simply. Therefore Hydrolysis-AICS process is very helpful to achieve the sewage discharging standard in the northern towns.

SUMMARYMicroaerophilic organisms were monitored in sewage effluent undergoing two secondary treatments: air and oxygen-activated sludge. The mean numbers ofArcobacter cryaerophilusand thermophilic campylobacters detected in incoming sewage were 5639/100 ml and 1720/100 ml respectively.Secondary treatment in air tanks reduced the population ofA. cryaerophilusby 97.1% and of thermophilic campylobacters by 99.08%, whereas treatment in oxygen tanks reduced the bacteria 97.8% and 99.63% respectively, showing that oxygen-activated sludge treatment was more effective. Subsequent tertiary treatment with 2 p.p.m. chlorine dioxide evidenced the removal ofA. cryaerophilusto 99.9% and eliminated thermophilic campylobacters.Campylobacter jejuniandC. coliconstituted 54.1% and 45.9% of 74 thermophilic campylobacter strains isolated. In air-activated sludge effluentC. jejuniwas found more often, thus appearing more sensitive to oxygen.The most probable number assay used for detection of campylobacters, blood medium for enrichment and blood-free medium for plating, also appeared to be fit forA. cryaerophilus, the high density of which in urban sewage may be due to inflows from slaughterhouses.
