Prefabricated Steel Package
Sewage Treatment Plants are available in capacity ranges from 19,000 L/day (5,000 USGPD)
to 200,000 L/day (53,000 USGPD). This prefabricated unit includes an anoxic zone, an
aeration basin and the final clarifier in a single tank. It can be economically shipped to
its destination by truck or ship. Larger units are custom designed to suit individual needs. The design can be modular and will cut costs to a minimum when future expansion of the facility is being contemplated. Options are available to meet any possible regulatory standard. |
Ease of Installation |
|
| Excavate if/as required Pour a suitable foundation pad Anchor the unit in place |
Connect inlet and outlet
sewer lines Bring in the power |
You have a WWTP ready to go! |

| How the Process Works |
| The Extended Aeration Process, a modification of the
Activated Sludge Process, effectively treats the contaminants in wastewaters. The standard
basis of design includes an aeration system, providing a 24-hour detention time, and a
final settling tank, with an effective 4-hour detention time. Diffused air is introduced into the aeration tank. This provides the proper environment for the development of aerobic bacteria. These bacteria thrive on the materials contained in the wastewater. The prolonged period of aeration, in addition, oxidizes a portion of the solids in the system. Oxygenation by diffused aeration provides operating flexibility and standby reserve to meet the demanding requirements of the varied package plant applications. Separation of the solids from the mixed liquor developed in the aeration tank takes place in the settling compartment. The clarified effluent is withdrawn for reuse or discharged into a receiving stream from the top of the settling tank. The settled solids are rapidly pumped from the bottom of the settling tank back to the aeration system. These Extended Aeration Plants are proven workhorses, providing excellent Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) removal efficiencies. Only minimal routine housekeeping and operational tasks are required of the plant operator. |
