ABSTRACT:
A multistage biological treatment method receives material to be treated, and passes the material through multiple reactors. From each reactor some of the contents are removed and separated, and the biomass is moved into the previous stage while the material to be treated and metabolic products are moved into the succeeding stage. Thus, the predominant flow of the biomass is upstream and the predominant flow of the material to be treated in downstream. Preferably, alternate reactors are anaerobic, and alternate reactors are aerobic, so the material is alternately subjected to anaerobic, then aerobic, environments. The process can be improved by applying physical, physical-chemical, chemical, and biochemical actions to the treatment system.
