正文(英文) | ![]() Wastewater has a lot of impact on the natural world and it is important to treat it effectively. By treating wastewater, you don't just save the creatures thriving on it, but also protect the planet as a whole. Our modern lifestyle provides us the luxury of using various products to make our lives more comfortable and easy, but it comes at a price. A common byproduct of our current lifestyle includes wastewater, which can either be in the form of water running down the shower or runoff from wet roads. This wastewater is unfit for human consumption or use. Fortunately, we can make the wastewater potable and usable by employing wastewater treatment technologies that filter and treat the wastewater by removing contaminants such as sewage and chemicals. Four common ways to treat wastewater include physical water treatment, biological water treatment, chemical treatment, and sludge treatment. Let us learn about these processes in detail. Physical Water Treatment One of the main techniques of physical wastewater treatment includes sedimentation, which is a process of suspending the insoluble/heavy particles from the wastewater. Once the insoluble material settles down at the bottom, you can separate the pure water. Another effective physical water treatment technique includes aeration. This process consists of circulating air through the water to provide oxygen to it. Filtration, the third method, is used for filtering out all the contaminants. You can use special kind of filters to pass the wastewater and separate the contaminants and insoluble particles present in it. The sand filter is the most commonly used filter. The grease found on the surface of some wastewater can also be removed easily through this method. Biological Water Treatment
Secondary treatment removes most of the solids present in wastewater, however, some dissolved nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorous may remain. Chemical Water Treatment Sludge Treatment An example of this includes dewatering of sludge from industrial wastewater or sewage plant where the residual moisture in dewatered solids determines the disposal costs and the centrate quality determines the pollution load returned back to the treatment facility. You need to minimize both. A solid-liquid separation device such as a centrifuge is used for removing the solids from the wastewater. Wastewater has a lot of impact on the natural world and it is important to treat it effectively. By treating wastewater, you don't just save the creatures thriving on it, but also protect the planet as a whole.
