Yes, I know of associates that have built "Engineered Wetlands" that use the treated wastewater for water features and backup water for fire support pond, and then have engineers that have designed Standalone systems for clusters in an industrial park with tertiary quality effluent discharging to stream or in one case ground water recharge.
I have 30+ years experience with decentralised water and waste water treatment are commonly used in Australian mining industries where industry is often located some distance from municipal facilities. I have also seen a waste water treatment facilities such as sewer mining projects for sporting field irrigation in capital cities and Singapore has one in an industrial area.
We are a non-profit algae production trade association with some researchers and producers co-located at wastewater treatment plants having good results removing 90% N and 75% P.
We are interested in facilitating small pilot tests of growing algae in wastewater or secondary water for potential co-products. If interested contact: barry@nationalalgaeassociation.org
Plant biodiversity is no vocation to purify wastewater pollution. It's as if we were asking a human swallowing wastewater pollution.The plant, like all living humans on Earth, needs food to grow. This food swallowing provides many energy elements/components. But unfortunately since chemical agriculture, these elements/components are impregnated with chemical molecule.
The body of certain living takes part of the absorbed mass and rejects him still turned in the form of waste.
The plant cannot absorb fluid by its root principle and this includes all plants.
A liquid that contains elements/components energy dissolved. Some of these elements/components will be eliminated by the energy need.
Unfortunately since the advent of chemical agriculture, these elements/components are impregnated with industrial chemical molecule.
All alive whatever will keep around him, in his body, a part of these harmful components, when a part will be rejected in various forms: evapotranspiration, loss of water, waste, urine to, etc.
These harmful components eventually saturate the body that hosts them and drive him to his own death.
We can therefore consider that 'intelligence' that uses living plants to clean polluted waters, practice a criminal act against humanity.
If the algae are part of life on our planet, they have a role to play in the eco system of the Earth. The algae live in an aquatic environment that communicates with other aquatic environments in which a living grows to feed the living.
A crime against life.
What surprises me most today is the ingenuity of man to destroy the - organic - which it belongs and he needs to live. the man is really the biggest predator of humanity
Decentralised water and waste water treatment are commonly used in Australia where industry is often located dome distance from municipal facilities. MAK Industrial Water Solutions (www.makwater.com.au) manufactures packaged systems that are often exported where system design and quality of manufacture is important to the end user.
Hi, we can help you, if you want. We have over 25 years of experience in waste water technologie. Please send yor request to: martens@cnt-abwassertechnik.com.
Thank you for sharing your contact details with Mr. Iman Dorri.
However, if you would share additional details about solutions (products and services) for the issue, others who have similar problem could see it and benefit from it.
In the Dutch city of Terneuzen they have a MBR installation that treats the effluent from the communal waste water treatment plant. The MBR effluent is used as process water for a factory of DOW Chemical.
We have seen several "constructed wetlands" at industrial parks for commingled sanitary and low strength industrial wastewater treatment. In fact, at one facility in New York State the constructed wetlands has been configured to preserve greenery and the effluent goes into ponds that are full of local wetlands habitat. The local schools use these effluent ponds as part of the ecology studies in their school curriculum inasmuch as they are a park like setting. This is a totally decentralized approach to wastewater treatment.
During my industrial employment in the Chemical Industry with several production units, for the most of units emitting persistent or toxic pollutant various pretreatment processes have been developed and applied, like wet oxidation for "cracking" highly concentrated, persistent pollutants, membrane filtration for enhenced product recovery ( as well as lower degree of pollution), reactive extraction, distillation, but also biological pretreatment for special effluent streams by special microbial mixed cultures.Very important and useful is the analysis of production processes with the target, to optimise or to replace them by modern, water saving, lower polluting alternatives. Our latest successfull project is the removal of a heterocyclic intermediate from a special effluent strem in petrochemistry by immobilised mixed cultures.
Yes. It is not uncommon in the US to have some level of industrial waste treatment prior to sewer. Many times, even larger residential developments have to install at least basic aeration systems for primary treatment prior to disposal.
This organization may have more resources or good contacts for you. Called (informally) The Onsite Consortium, it seems to be a group of academics and industry people promoting decentralized wastewater treatment. It's in the US: http://www.onsiteconsortium.org/
The treatment of industrial wastes tends to be very specific depending on the nature of the waste. Pretreatment and then controlled disposal to sewer is the generally preferred method as the trade effluent is then diluted with domestic sewage which aids the treatment process. If the industrial site is not connected to the main sewer system then a dedicated plant can be made to work subject to strict controls and the water recycled for industrial use. Chennai has two large RO plants, producing high quality industrial process water, but these are fed with water from one of the city's sewage treatment plants.
To design a system which was capable of treating each and every type of trade effluent, would require tight controlling of what was going into the system and may even require a level of pre treatment before reaching the works, i.e. at source. If your intention is to use the water for irrigation, much like a discharge to a soakaway, this would require a permit. Roof top and surface water reuse may be a better option.
I agree you that generally roof top and surface water reuse may be a better options, but in countries located in arid and semiarid regions like middle east, I think wastewater recycling/reuse are better options.
I have Clarus Fusion factory manufactured treatment plants. Biological treatment for Grey and black water. Benefits are 100% reuse of the effluent grey water for irrigation and can be connected to the system for flushing toilets. Very low power consumption. Please see www.maskamwater.com
