1. A wastewater treatment process for a wastewater treatment system having an anoxic tank outputting to a biological reactor and outputting from the reactor to a clear well, said anoxic tank having a bottom, top, an input wall, an output wall and two side walls interconnecting the input and out put walls, said bottom, top, input wall, output wall and side walls defining an anoxic tank interior, said anoxic tank input wall having a raw wastewater input pipe connecting an external raw wastewater source with the anoxic tank interior, said wastewater input pipe being located near to the anoxic tank top, said anoxic tank output wall having an output pipe for anoxic tank effluent, said anoxic tank interior having a progammable logic controlled floating pump placed within controlling anoxic tank effluent flow out of said anoxic tank interior, said biological reactor having a top, a bottom, receiving side, discharge side, two opposite side walls interconnecting the receiving and discharge sides, said top, bottom, receiving side, discharge side and side walls defining a reactor interior, said biological reactor interior having a filter, an open head-space above the filter, and a sump formed beneath the filter and above reactor bottom, said anoxic tank output pipe connecting to the biological reactor whereby the anoxic tank effluent is adapted to being pumped by the floating pump to the biological reactor interior head-space just above the reactor filter, said biological reactor having a discharge pipe interconnecting the biological reactor sump with a clear well interior, said clear well comprised of a bottom, a top, a receiving side, a discharge side, and two side walls interconnecting said receiving and discharge sides, said bottom, top, receiving side, discharge side and side walls defining said clear well interior, said biological reactor discharge pipe connect to the clear well inlet pipe in the clear well receiving side providing a channel for the biological reactor treated wastewater into the clear well interior, said clear well interior contains a first pump on the clear well bottom, said first pump being connected to said clear well inlet pipe, and being adapted to provide reverse flow from the clear well interior back through the biological reactor interior, said clear well interior also containing a second pump on the clear well bottom, said second pump being interconnected to a clear well discharge outlet in the clear well discharge side, said second pump adapted to discharge the contents of said clear well interior out through said discharge outlet, said process comprising the steps of:
providing a backwash/recycle pipe interconnecting the biological reactor interior head space with a hollow vertical recycle pipe located in the anoxic tank interior near to the anoxic tank input wall, said anoxic tank vertical recycle pipe fluidly connected to an elongated baffle comprised of perforated horizontal pipe positioned adjacent the anoxic tank interior bottom extending centrally from the vertical recycle pipe toward the anoxic tank output wall; introducing raw untreated sewage wastewater having a significant concentration of waste solids into the anoxic tank interior through the anoxic tank input pipe, said solids having a higher density than said sewage wastewater sinking to the tank bottom to form a sludge layer about said elongated baffle; pumping the liquid portion of the wastewater, known as anoxic tank effluent, through the anoxic tank discharge end into the biological reactor for nitrification; releasing nitrogen gas formed to the atmosphere; passing treated wastewater, now nitrified wastewater, to the clear well; return a portion of the nitrified wastewater from the reactor head space via the reactor recycle pipe, the anoxic tank vertical recycle pipe and baffle, into the sludge layer; turning off the floating pump for a fixed time to allow the sludge to settle and prevent sludge from moving forward into the biological reactor before it settles in the anoxic tank interior. |
