<p>An improved barrier oxidation ditch is provided which has an inclined duct for the induced flow, whereby energy in the dammed-up momentum is more efficiently released. This inducedflow duct is inclined at 30.degree. to 60.degree. to the horizontal, preferably 45.degree., and is disposed upstream of, downstream of, or alongside of the circulator/aerator in the intake channel. The induced-flow duct is preferably rectangular in cross-section and may have its downstream wall formed by the barrier if it is downstream of the circulator/aerator. It is connected at its lower end to the discharge duct to initiate a combined-flow portion thereof. An in-channel clarifier, disposed in the discharge channel so that its upstream wall is the barrier and its solid bottom is the ceiling of the combined-flow portion of the discharge duct, provides prolonged bubble retention time at maximum hydraulic pressure, whereby the efficiency of oxygen transfer is increased.</p> |
