Waste water treatment in helophyte beds under humid climate conditions has been favoured by some German ecologists for some years. The idea is to cause waste water to flow horizontally through the root zone of helophytes to achieve satisfactory effluent properties. There exist many highly different proposals regarding the choice of soil and helophytes to be applied, bed area, design of inlets and outlets and operation conditions. A few plants have been operated in practice for some years. It appears that clogging is one of the main problems occurring in these plants. The hydraulic uptake capacity of soil is discussed in Darcy's law. Comparisons with observations of plants in operation are drawn. The interactions between soil properties, its uptake capacity, BOD5-, COD-, N- and P-reduction are evaluated. The effluent results of helophyte beds are compared with those of low-loaded trickling filters and of ponds used for sewage treatment in small villages in rural areas of Germany. It has been proved that the total construction costs of sewage treatment plants with helophyte beds used as the biological stage are higher when compared with those of conventional plants in general.

A single-vaned centrifugal pump, typical of the kind employed in waste-water applications (e.g. sewage treatment), has been investigated numerically. The primary objective was to identify a modelling approach that was accurate, but at an acceptable computational cost. A test program has been executed to provide data to validate the numerical models. The global performance of the pump was assessed in terms of the pressure head, the mass flowrate, the power consumption, and the pump efficiency. In addition, time-resolved surface-pressure measurements were made at the volute wall. Five combinations of three modelling approximations (two or 3D; k-ε or Reynolds stress model turbulence model; unsteady or quasi-steady) were investigated and compared with the experimental results. It was found that the choice of turbulence model did not have a significant effect on the predictions. In all cases, the head-discharge curve was well predicted. However, it was found that only the quasi-steady models could capture the trend of the power consumption curve, and hence that of the efficiency. Discrepancies in the magnitude of the power consumption can be accounted for by the lack of losses such as leakage in the numerical models. Qualitative analysis of the numerical results identifies the trailing edge of the impeller as the primary source of power loss, with the flow in the region of the cut water also contributing significantly to the poor overall efficiency of the design.

Sewage treatment remains a delicate subject and requires technical improvements to increase the efficiency of the systems responsible for the treatment. Numerical simulations are also a very useful tool, especially if they are used during the design phase. Thus, the paper aims to present the results obtained by CFD numerical simulations in the case of an important element within an existing wastewater treatment plant, namely the waste water treatment well, thus obtaining constructive solutions of a better functionally to the designed version. Through these, the work demonstrates the necessity of analyzes with CFD methods during design of the main elements of hydrotechnical constructions, but also the necessity of adjusting the numerical models with results obtained from experiments, measurements. The results show that the modifications described in the paper would bring significant improvements in waste disposal.

A new immobilization microorganism (IM) method was built by adding sodium alginate, SiO2 and CaCO3 in gel and cross-linking with saturated H3BO3 aqueous solution with 2% CaCl2 for traditional PVA-H3BO3 method. The modified method was used for preparation IM for hydrogen production from waste water contained organics by sewage treatment plants’ sludge pretreated. The change rate of the IM balls diameter and unit hydrogen production were taken as the primary performance criterion of the IM. The modified IM method for hydrogen production from waste water contained organics was confirmed: 9% PVA and 0.9% sodium alginate for the embedding medium, saturated H3BO3 aqueous solution and 2% CaCl2 for cross-linking agent, and adding NaCO3 adjusting PH, 3%SiO2 and 0.5%CaCO3 for the support packing of IM balls, and the balls diameter of about 3mm. The modified IM balls had unit hydrogen production of 63.3% and total sugar removal rate of 143.4mL/h•L for washing model wastewater from ice cream factory, which contained 2000 mg/L total sugar and 5500mg/L COD, and higher mechanical strength. It were identified that the method could reduce outside surface’s shrink, and improve the homogeneous of inside endoporus structure of modified IM balls, and a similar inside microporosity and outside microporosity by SEM detection.

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.

The waste water treatment system of the central region Linz is described. Because of the construction of the hydroelectric plant in Abwinden-Asten a central sewage treatment plant for 22 communities and the waste waters of the chemical and steel industry was constructed. Purification efficiency in terms of BOD5 is 93 % and 83 % for COD. The anaerobic digested sludge is deposited in lagoons.

The article deals with theoretical and practical aspects of biological waste water rehabilitation of sugar factories by algocoenosis correction. This technology allows you to transfer domestic sewage treatment plant of filtration mode fields in the biological treatment ponds mode, significantly reducing the area of sewage treatment plants, thus improving the quality of treated waste water, which will, in turn, use them repeatedly reducing total water consumption.
