Description
- This application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. § 119(e) to U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 60/723,744, entitled “METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TREATING WASTEWATER,” filed on Oct. 5, 2005, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- 1. Field of Invention
- The present invention relates to a system and method for treating wastewater, and more particularly to a wastewater treatment system and method utilizing a membrane bioreactor.
- 2. Discussion of Related Art
- The importance of membrane for treatment of waste water is growing rapidly. With the arrival of submerged membrane processes where membrane modules are immersed in a large feed tank and filtrate is collected typically through suction applied to the filtrate side of the membrane, membrane bioreactors (MBRs) combining biological and physical processes in one stage promise to be more compact, efficient and economic. Membrane bioreactors are typically sized to accommodate community and large-scale sewage treatment, i.e. 160,000 gpd, and 20-40 mgd and more. These large-scale wastewater treatment systems are commonly designed to operate while attended, have numerous controls, and typically require chemical addition. A need remains for a simple, robust small scale wastewater treatment systems designed for relatively unattended use, requiring only periodic maintenance.
- In accordance with one or more embodiments, the invention relates to a system and method of treating wastewater.
- In one embodiment, a wastewater treatment system includes a first treatment zone fluidly connected to a second treatment zone. A fluidizable media carrying anoxic bacteria is positioned in the first treatment zone, and a membrane module comprising a filter membrane is positioned in the second treatment zone. The wastewater treatment system may also comprise an oxygen depleting zone.
- Another embodiment is directed to a method of treating wastewater includes contacting a wastewater with an anoxic bacteria immobilized on a fluidized media to produce a first water product. The first water product is contacted with air to from a second water product which is passed through a filter membrane to produce a concentrated mixed liquor and a filtrate.
- Another embodiment is directed to a method of treating a wastewater including passing a wastewater through a fluidized bed carrying anoxic bacteria to produce a first treated wastewater. A portion of the first treated wastewater is passed through a filter membrane to produce a concentrated mixed liquor and a filtrate, which is discharged.
- The accompanying drawings are not intended to be drawn to scale. In the drawings, each identical or nearly identical component that is illustrated in various figures is represented by a like numeral. For purposes of clarity, not every component may be labeled in every drawing. In the drawings:
-
FIG. 1 illustrates a system in accordance with one or more embodiments of the invention. -
FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a process in accordance with one or more embodiments of the invention. - This invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and the arrangement of components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced or of being carried out in various ways. Also, the phraseology and terminology used herein is for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting. The use of “including,” “comprising,” or “having,” “containing,” “involving,” and variations thereof herein, is meant to encompass the items listed thereafter and equivalents thereof as well as additional items.
- This invention is directed to wastewater treatment systems utilizing membrane bioreactors designed to treat wastewater flow of about 10,000 gpd or less. In one embodiment the wastewater treatment system is designed to treat wastewater flow of about 5,000 gpd. One or more embodiments are directed to a fluidized bed containing bacterial micro-organisms in conjunction with an MBR. Some aspects relative to one or more embodiments also include utilizing an oxygen depletion zone in conjunction with the MBR. “Wastewater,” as used herein, defines a stream of waste from a residential or community source, having pollutants of biodegradable material, inorganic or organic compounds capable of being decomposed by bacteria, flowing into the wastewater treatment system. As used herein, a “wastewater treatment system” is a system, typically a biological treatment system, having a biomass population of bacterial micro-organisms of a diversity of types of bacteria, used to digest biodegradable material. Notably, the biomass requires an environment that provides the proper conditions for growth.
- One embodiment of the present invention includes bioreactor having one or more treatment zones. As used herein, the phrase “treatment zone” is used to denote an individual treatment region. Individual treatment regions may be housed in a single vessel with one or more compartments. Alternatively, individual treatment regions may be housed in separate vessels, wherein a different treatment is carried out in separate vessels. The treatment zone, i.e. the vessel or compartment, may be sized and shaped according to a desired application and volume of wastewater to be treated.
- The wastewater treatment system may comprise a fluidizable media housed in a first treatment zone. The fluidizable media may comprise biomass carriers designed to immobilize anoxic organisms. The biomass carriers may be formed of any material suitable to support organisms and to remain fluidized under operating conditions. In one embodiment, the fluidizable media has a specific gravity substantially the same as that of water. In another embodiment the fluidizable media has a surface area adequate to allow denitrifying bacteria to grow, which may enhance the efficiency of the anoxic reaction to remove nitrogen.
- Any volume of fluidizable media may be utilized within the first treatment zone for a particular purpose. For example, a maximum volume of fluidized media may be used to substantially fill the first treatment zone, or a lesser volume of fluidized material may be used to fill a portion of the first treatment zone. Without being bound by any particular theory, passing wastewater through denitrifying bacteria immobilized on the fluidizable media may increase the efficiency of the denitrification process.
- The first treatment zone may also comprise means for maintaining the fluidized media within the first treatment zone during operation. For example, a baffle, weir, screen or perforated plate may be used to maintain the fluidizable media within the first treatment zone. Alternatively, the fluidizable media may be prevented from exiting the first treatment zone by establishing fluid counter currents during operation so that the fluidizable material remains appropriately suspended. In one embodiment, a screen or perforated plate is positioned across an entire cross sectional area of a vessel or compartment forming the first treatment zone to maintain the fluidizable media within the first treatment zone. The screen or perforated plate may also assist in providing a substantially uniform density of fluidizable media over the entire cross sectional area of the first treatment zone. One or more screens or perforated plates may be positioned within the first treatment zone to establish one or more fluidized bed regions. For example, one screen may be positioned at or near the top of the first treatment zone to contain a first fluidizable media region, and a second screen may be positioned below the first screen to contain a second fluidizable media region. The fluidizable media may, but need not be the same in the separate regions. Similarly, the fluidizable media may support the same or different anoxic organisms in the separate regions.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, one or more porous or permeable membranes may be positioned in a second treatment zone. The membrane may have any configuration suitable for a particular purpose, such as sheet or hollow tube. The membrane may be formed of any material (natural or synthetic) suitable for a particular filtration process. In one embodiment, the membrane is formed of polymeric hollow fibers.
- One or more membranes may be positioned in one or more membrane modules. The membrane modules may have any shape and cross sectional area suitable for use in a desired application, for example, square, rectangular, or cylindrical. In one embodiment, the membrane modules are rectangular.
- According to one embodiment of the invention, one or more membrane modules may be positioned in a second treatment zone in such a way as to be completely submerged by fluid during operation. For example, the membrane module may be positioned vertically, horizontally, or at an angle within the second treatment zone. Multiple membrane modules may be positioned adjacent one another, or located at predetermined positions within the second treatment zone and may, but need not, be positioned in the same plane as others or parallel to one another. In one embodiment, hollow fiber membranes may be positioned horizontally within the second treatment zone. One or more membrane modules may be mounted directly to the vessel or compartment which forms the second treatment zone. Alternatively, one or more membrane modules may be mounted to a module support which may be removably attached to the vessel or compartment forming the second treatment zone. In one embodiment, a plurality of membrane modules are mounted to a module support rack to facilitate membrane maintenance and/or replacement. In another embodiment, membrane modules having vertical partitions may be positioned horizontally.
- The second treatment zone may include an aeration system to suspend solids in wastewater or resultant concentrated mixed liquor contained within the second treatment zone, and/or to assist water transfer through the membrane. The aeration system may produce fine bubbles, coarse bubbles, a jet stream of gas, a jet of gas and fluid, and combinations thereof. The aeration system may be positioned in any suitable location within the second treatment zone. In one embodiment, aeration may be provided along a length of one or more membrane modules horizontally positioned.
- The wastewater treatment system may comprise an oxygen depletion compartment fluidly connected to the first treatment zone and the second treatment zone. The oxygen depletion compartment may be sized to accept a portion of a wastestream exiting the first treatment zone, as well as a concentrated mixed liquor from the second treatment zone.
- According to another embodiment, the wastewater treatment system may comprise one or more pretreatment units, such as to collect solids and/or to remove phosphorous. In one embodiment the pretreatment unit is a trap to remove floating solids, such as grease, and other gross organic solids until they become more soluble, and is positioned upstream of the first treatment zone. The trap may be sized to provide a volume of about 1×FF (1 forward feed or about 5,000 gpd). In another embodiment, the pretreatment unit is a chemical phosphorous removal unit.
- According to another embodiment, the wastewater treatment system may comprise an equalization tank and/or a reserve storage tank fluidly connected to the bioreactor. The tank may be sized to accommodate fluctuations in wastewater generation to normalize flow into the bioreactor. For example, the equalization capacity may be equal to about 8 hours or about 33% of the FF. The same tank may also be sized to provide reserve capacity for an emergency such as a power failure, and may have a reserve capacity of about 16 hours or about 67% of the FF. In one embodiment, the tank is sized to provide a volume of about 1×FF (about 5,000 gpd) to provide for equalization and a reserve.
- Referring to the figures,
FIG. 1 illustrates one embodiment of the present wastewater treatment system.FIG. 1 shows abioreactor 10 comprising anaerobic compartment 12, ananoxic compartment 14, and anoxygen depletion compartment 16. Twomembrane modules 18 are positioned in theaerobic compartment 12. Ahigh level sensor 28 inaerobic compartment 12 indicates that the wastewater in the aerobic compartment is approaching full volume, and may indicate that one or both of the membrane modules are not functioning properly.High level sensor 28 may turn offpump 42 in equalization/reserve tank 40 to interrupt wastewater flow into thebioreactor 10 and sound an alarm.Low level sensor 30 in theaerobic compartment 12 indicates that the level of wastewater in the aerobic compartment may fall below the plane of themembrane modules 18, and may subsequently expose the membranes to air causing them to dry.Low level sensor 30 may closevalve 50 online 36 to interrupt flow of filtrate leaving the bioreactor. - Also as shown in
FIG. 1 ,fluidized media 20 carrying an immobilized denitrifying bacteria is positioned in theanoxic compartment 14 and is prevented from entering theaerobic compartment 12 byscreen 22. Wastewater to be treated enters theanoxic compartment 14 throughinlet 32 and fluidizes thefluidizable media 20 under anoxic conditions. The wastewater passes up through thefluidized media 20 containing denitrifying organisms and produces a first treated wastewater. As shown inFIG. 2 , a portion of the first treated wastewater passes to theaerobic compartment 12 at about 6×FF (about 30,000 gpd). A second portion of the first treated wastewater passes to anoxygen depletion compartment 16 at about 2×FF (about 10,000 gpd). - Blower 26 forces air through a fine bubble or a coarse
bubble aeration system 34 in theaerobic compartment 12, providing an air scour for themembrane modules 18 and fluid circulation for the aerobic process. A portion of the first treated wastewater passes through the membranes under hydrostatic pressure at about 1×FF (5,000 gpd) to produce a filtrate and a concentrated mixed liquor. InFIG. 1 , two B30R membrane modules available from US Filter are used. The membrane modules may be oriented vertically, horizontally, or at a predetermined angle. The modules may be assembled to a removable rack that can be lifted from the top of theaerobic compartment 12. A filtrate header (not shown) connects one end of the two membrane modules toline 36. The filtrate exits thefirst compartment 12 throughline 36 for further treatment or release. - The concentrated mixed liquor passes to an
oxygen depletion compartment 16 at about 5×FF (25,000 gpd). Dissolved oxygen is removed form the concentrated mixed liquor in the oxygen depletion compartment. The concentrated mixed liquor combines with a portion of the first treated wastewater in theoxygen depletion compartment 16 to produce a secondary wastewater.Pump 24 pumps the secondary wastewater at about 7×FF (35,000 gpd) to a distribution manifold at the bottom of theanoxic compartment 14 for further treatment. As shown inFIG. 2 , discharge frompump 24 may include amanifold distribution system 36 to provide a more uniform distribution of upward flow of wastewater and secondary wastewater in the anoxic compartment, thereby ensuring the fluidized media remains fluidized. The manifold distribution system may be sized and shaped to provide adequate distribution of fluid flow. In one embodiment, the manifold distribution system comprises 1.5 inch pipes with multiple 0.25 inch holes to provide uniform distribution of the wastewater and secondary wastewater up through the fluidized media. - Also illustrated in
FIG. 1 aretrap 38 and equalization/reserve storage tank 40. Wastewater to be treated enterstrap 38 at about 1×FF (5,000 gpd) where floating solids are trapped, and inert materials and gross organic solids settle. The wastewater then flows fromtrap 38 totank 40 by gravity.Tank 40 has a volume of about 1×FF (5,000 gpd) to equalize flow and provide a reserve.Pump 42 moves the wastewater at about 1×FF (5,000 gpd) to theanoxic compartment 14.Pump 42 may be any pump suitable for the capacity of wastewater to be treated. In one embodiment, pump 42 may be a Zoller 5040 Filtered STEP System.Tank 40 includes 3 level sensors/alarms Low level sensor 44 protects the pump from running dry, andhigh level senor 46 activate a timer controlling anautomatic valve 50 online 36.Alarm level sensor 48 activates an alarm system to override the timer andopen valve 50. - The flow chart of
FIG. 2 illustrate one embodiment of forward feed, however, other forward feeds are contemplated. For example, forward feed from the aerobic compartment, to the oxygen depleting compartment may be increased or decreased depending upon the amount of recirculation desired, and the amount of forward feed required to fluidize the media. However, it is preferable that the forward feed from the aerobic compartment to the oxygen depleting compartment not be increased to such an extent that dissolved oxygen enters the anoxic compartment. Similarly, it is preferable that the forward feed from the oxygen depleting compartment not be increased to such an extent to allow dissolved oxygen to enter the anoxic compartment. However, in some instances, the addition of some dissolved oxygen may be expected. With a media in the system, a biofilm may grow on outer and ineteral surface of the media. When the biofilm has grown to a particular thickness, for example, 50 microns, an inner layer of microorganisms may be exposed to an anoxic environment regardless of whether an outer layer of microorganisms is exposed to aerobic conditions, so that denitrification may occur in the inner layer of the biofilm. Minimal addition of dissolved oxygen is contemplated by this invention as long as the dissolved oxygen does not overwhelm the denitrification process. - Having thus described several aspects of at least one embodiment of this invention, it should be apparent to those skilled in the art that the foregoing is merely illustrative and not limiting, having been presented by way of example only.
