APPARATUS FOR THE PURIFICATION OF UNCLEAN WATER, IN PARTICULAR OF WASTEWATER AND/OR POLLUTED WATER

摘要

The invention regards an apparatus (1) for the purification of unclean water (A), in particular of wastewater and/or polluted water (A), comprising:—at least one container (2), preferably cylindrical, delimiting a reaction chamber (3) arranged to receive a predetermined amount of water (A) to be treated; at least one support (11), preferably at least one free body (11a) not constrained to the apparatus (1), operatively arranged inside the reaction chamber (3) of the container (2) and provided with at least one surface for the formation and/or the proliferation of bacterial colonies in form of films capable of purifying unclean water (A), the support (11) periodically emerging, at least partially, from the water (A) to be treated in order to place the bacterial colonies into contact with the air. The container (2) is movable, in particular rotationally about a predetermined rotation axis (X), for periodically driving the support (11) between an immersed condition, wherein it is totally covered with water (A) to be treated, and an emerged condition, wherein it emerges, at least partially, from the water (A) to be treated.

1. An apparatus for the purification of unclean water in particular of wastewater and/or polluted water, comprising:
at least one container, preferably cylindrical, delimiting a reaction chamber arranged to receive a predetermined amount of water to be treated; at least one support operatively arranged inside said reaction chamber of said container and provided with at least one surface for the formation and/or proliferation of bacterial colonies in form of films capable of purifying unclean water, said support periodically emerging, at least partially, from said water to be treated in order to place said bacterial colonies into contact with the air; characterised in that said support comprises at least one free body not constrained to the apparatus and in that said container is movable, in particular rotationally about a predetermined rotation axis, for periodically driving said support between an immersed condition, wherein it is totally covered by water to be treated, and an emerged condition, wherein it emerges, at least partially, from said water to be treated, said apparatus comprising movement means operatively connected to said container for rotating the latter about said rotation axis, said movement means comprising at least one pair of support pins rotationally constrained to the structure of said apparatus.
