PLANT AND METHOD FOR THE SIMULTANEOUS TREATMENT OF WASTEWATER AND GENERATED SLUDGE

摘要

The invention relates to a plant and method for the simultaneous treatment of wastewater and the associated generated sludge. The plant includes at least: a screen (1) for eliminating floating material carried by the wastewater; a ventilation system formed by at least a blower (5) and a pipe network (8 and 8') for distributing and introducing air into the plant; a grit chamber (2); a homogenisation tank (3); a biological reactor (13); a water/sludge separating section (23); a disinfection area (32); and a cistern for storing the water obtained and making same directly available. The method for the simultaneous treatment of wastewater and the associated generated sludge comprises the application of compressed atmospheric air in order to oxidise the organic material and recirculate the sludge generated in the plant until said sludge is mineralised.
