Almost a 100-thousand gallons of effluent went into Juanita Creek. Monteagle has two wastewater treatment plants…and this was plant number consisting of an above-ground steel tank. Monteagle has also begun chlorinating the bypass into [...]
Aerobic and anaerobic waste water treatment
2009-03-14 18:28:23
Waste water treatment systems can be divided into biological, physical and chemical processes. The microbiological processes can be separated into aerobic and anaerobic processes. The purification of waste water produces large amounts of organic sludge, which has to be thickened, treated and disposed of. This is one of the most expensive parts of waste water treatment. [...]
Sewage treatment in emergency situations
2009-03-14 12:20:29

Feces also attracts [...]
Reverse Osmosis and Nano Filtration
2009-03-12 15:55:37
Reverse osmosis is an efficient technique for dewatering, concentrating or separating low-molecular-weight substances in wastewater. It can be used to concentrate all dissolved and suspended solid materials. The most important usage for reverse osmosis is desalination of seawater. Osmosis is a physical process in which a solvent moves, without need of external energy, across a [...]

Sewage sludge as fertilizer
2009-03-12 08:00:13
Sewage sludge is an end product of the wastewater treatment process. This material is rich with nutrients and using it as a fertilizer is an ecological way to turn waste into a valuable resource, because otherwise it would have to be disposed of by landfilling, incineration or ocean dumping. Farmers who use sludge as a fertilizer [...]
Nanowire mesh can absorb up to 20 times its weight in oil
2009-03-12 05:29:34
Scientists at MIT say they have created a membrane that can absorb up to 20 times its weight in oil, and can be recycled many times for future use. The oil can also be recovered. The new nanowire paper is also inexpensive to produce because the nanowires of which it is composed can be [...]
