~ Zone of recovery

~ DO level raised to 40% original

~ Fish appears in water.

~ Reoxygenation > Deoxygenation

Sludge Treatment

🔸 Sludge Treatment is aimed to achieve volume reduction & strength reduction.

🔸 Volume & strength reduction of sludges are achieved by

👉 sludge Thickening :- By concentrating the sludge by expulsion of water.

👉 Sludge digestion :- By anaerobic decomposition to reduce strength.

👉 Sludge conditioning :- To improve drainblility of sludges

👉 Sludge dewatering and drying :- Remove remaining moisture from sludge.

♦️ Strength reduction

👉 Strength reduction of sludge i.e. BOD removal is carried out by anaerobic decomposition known sludge digestion.

👉 Sludge digestion occur in two stages i.e. Acids fermentation and Methane fermentation.

🔸 Sludge digester

👉 Sludge are anaerobically digested by using a reactor known as sludge digester.

👉 Diameter of tank :- 3 to 60m

👉 Height of tank :- 6 to 12m

👉 Digestion period depends upon type of microorganisms

~ mesophilic organisms :- 30 to 60 days (Temperature 20℃ - 40℃)

~ Thermophilic organisms :- 15 to 25 days (Temperature 45℃ - 60℃)

👉 Gas production

~ 70% Methane

~ 30% Carbon dioxide

👉 Calorific value (energy content) :- 5200 to 5800 kcal/m3 of CH4

🔸 Digested sludge are dewatered and dried by using solar drying beds known as sludge drying bed.

♦️ Activated sludge process (ASP)

🔸 Activated sludge :- It is sludge containing large concentration of highly active aerobic micro organisms.

🔸 ASP works on the principle of suspended culture system.

🔸 Components of ASP

~ Detention time - 1.5 to 2 hr.

B) Aeration tank :-

~ Detention time- 4 to 8 hr

C) Secondary sedimentation tank :-

~ Detention time- 1.5 to 2 hr.

D) Sludge thickener & sludge digestion tank

🔸 Activated sludge process parameters

1. Hydraulic retention time (HRT) :- It is the ratio of volume of tank to the rate of sewage flow into the tank.

2. Volumetric loading rate or BOD loading rate :- It is ratio of BOD applied to unit volume of aeration tank.

3. Food to microorganism ratio (F/M) :- It is defined as the ratio of kg of BOD applied per day to kg of MLSS in aeration tank.

4. Mean cell residence time (Sludge age) :- It is defined as mass of cell in the reactors to mass of cells wasted per day.

5. Sludge volume index :- It is the volume occupied in ml by 1 gm MLSS after settling for 30 minute from 1L sewage sample is known as sludge volume index.

🔸 Usual values adpoted

👉 F/M :- 0.4 to 0.3

👉 MCRT :- 5 to 15 days

👉 Efficiency :- 85 - 95%

👉 Recycling ratio :- 0.25 - 0.5

🔸 Operational problems associated with ASP

1. Rising of sludge :- Settled sludge contains large number of live cells. They oxidise the dead cells and release nitrogen. The nitrogen causes the sludge to risep and increases the Xe value.

~ Remedies :- Increase Qr & Decrease Q

2. Bulking of sludge :- Large number of dead cell in settled sludge and growth of filamentous organisms. Occurs when SVI ≃ 150

~ Remedies :- Bring down SVI (≃ 150), Increase pH, Increase DO, decrease F/M ratio.
