Nutrient Removal from Secondary Effluent by Alum Flocculation and Lime Precipitation.
The removal of phosphorus and nitrogen compounds from biochemically treated wastewater effluents by alum flocculation and lime precipitation was investigated. Samples of secondary effluent were flocculated or precipitated in accord with conventional Jar Test procedures. The phosphorus removal was found to be highly pH dependent with an optimum pH of 5.57 ± 0.25. At this pH an alum dose of 250 m...
متن کاملDewatered alum sludge: a potential adsorbent for phosphorus removal.
Alum sludge refers to the by-product from the processing of drinking water in water treatment works. In this study, groups of batch experiments were designed to identify the characteristics of dewatered alum sludge for phosphorus adsorption. Air-dried alum sludge (moisture content 10.2%), which was collected from a water treatment works in Dublin, was subjected to artificial P-rich wastewater a...
متن کاملPhosphorus and Organic Matter Removal from Synthetic Wastewater Using Alum and Aluminum Hydroxide
ABSTRACT At present, chemical processes are widely used to remove phosphorus and organic matter from water or wastewater either as the only advanced treatment method or as a pre-treatment stage to biological treatment, and aluminium salts have been traditionally used as coagulants. In the present study removal of orthophosphate or dissolved organic matter with the use of two aluminium sources: ...
متن کاملTwo strategies for phosphorus removal from reject water of municipal wastewater treatment plant using alum sludge.
In view of the well recognized need of reject water treatment in MWWTP (municipal wastewater treatment plant), this paper outlines two strategies for P removal from reject water using alum sludge, which is produced as by-product in drinking water treatment plant when aluminium sulphate is used for flocculating raw waters. One strategy is the use of the alum sludge in liquid form for co-conditio...
متن کاملProcess-based modelling of phosphorus removal in a novel constructed wetland system using dewatered alum-sludge as substrate.
A process-based model that can evaluate the transport and the fate of phosphorus (P) in agricultural wastewater was developed for a novel 4-stage dewatered alum sludge cakes (DASC) based constructed wetlands (CWs) system using STELLA software (version 9.1.4). The model considered adsorption, plant and microbial uptakes as the major forms of P involved in the transformation chains. The results w...
