ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed an activated sludge sewage treatment process which comprises mixing influent sewage material with activated sludge and bio-surface particulates to provide a mixed liquor. The mixed liquor is passed to an aeration zone wherein it is contacted with an oxygen-containing gas to reduce the BOD content thereof. The mixed liquor is then passed to a settling zone in which it is settled to separate bio-surface particulates having sludge particles adherent thereto and a clarified supernatant. The clarified supernatant is removed from the settling zone and is discharged as effluent or routed for further treatment. At least a portion of the bio-surface particulates having sludge adherent thereto is subjected to a treatment to separate at least a portion of the adherent sludge particles. The thus treated portion of the bio-surface particulates, which may still have some sludge particles adherent thereto, and separated sludge particles is then passed to a bio-surface particulate sludge separator. In this separator, the sludge present in the mixture which is not adherent to the bio-surface particulates separates from the bio-surface particulates and at least a portion of the sludge is passed out of the system as waste sludge which is essentially free of the biosurface particulates. The bio-surface particulates and remaining sludge are then recycled for mixing with said influent sewage material.
