WASTEWATER TREATMENT

摘要

An antimicrobial method of treating wastewater and a wastewater antimicrobial dispenser containing an antimicrobial agent for treating a body of wastewater to kill microorganisms by increasing the concentration metal ions therein. The antimicrobial method includes the step of increasing the effectiveness of the biocidal component in the body of wastewater to thereby lessen the need for a supplemental biocide by adding a compound containing a hydantoin ring where the compound containing a hydantoin ring may or may not have any antimicrobial properties. The antimicrobial agent including a source of biocidal metal ions and a compound containing a hydantoin ring where the antimicrobial agent may be a powder, a liquid a solid or combinations thereof.

1. A method for treatment of greywater containing solid pollutants using a single biocidal component comprising:
removal of the solid pollutants from the greywater; adding a concentration of a biocidal component to the body of greywater after removal of the solid pollutants to kill microorganisms in the greywater to render the water suitable for human consumption; and maintaining the effectiveness of the biocidal component in the greywater by adding a biocidal ineffective compound having a hydantoin ring therein to the greywater to increase the concentration of soluble biocidal component in the greywater to sustain a standard plate count at 35 Degrees Fahrenheit of less than 200 colonies per milliliter.
