WATER TREATMENT REACTOR AERATION SUPPORT

摘要

A wastewater treatment includes an elevated aeration system. The aeration system is used to provide air and nutrients to biological growth in a wastewater treatment vessel, and to promote circulation of the support media used for the biological growth. The aeration system is elevated from the bottom of the reactor vessel by supports that extend from sidewalls of the vessel, or from suspension systems that hang the aeration system at a desired height. Silt, debris and sludge may be removed from the free space between the elevated aeration system and the vessel floor. Mechanical collection or removal devices may be positioned between the elevated aeration system and the reactor floor.
