  2. Biofilter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilter

    Bespoke biofilters have been developed and commercialized for the treatment of animal wastes, [13] landfill leachates, [14] dairy wastewater, [15] domestic wastewater. [ 16 ] This process is versatile as it can be adapted to small flows (< 1 m3/d), such as onsite sewage [ 17 ] as well as to flows generated by a municipality (> 240 000 m3/d). [ 18 ]

  3. Trickling filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trickling_filter

    Trickling filter. A trickling filter is a type of wastewater treatment system. It consists of a fixed bed of rocks, coke, gravel, slag, polyurethane foam, sphagnum peat moss, ceramic, or plastic media over which sewage or other wastewater flows downward and causes a layer of microbial slime (biofilm) to grow, covering the bed of media.

  4. Membrane bioreactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_bioreactor

    Membrane bioreactors are combinations of membrane processes like microfiltration or ultrafiltration with a biological wastewater treatment process, the activated sludge process. These technologies are now widely used for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. [1] The two basic membrane bioreactor configurations are the submerged ...

  5. Moving bed biofilm reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_Bed_Biofilm_Reactor

    Moving bed biofilm reactor. Moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) is a type of wastewater treatment process that was first invented by Professor Hallvard Ødegaard at Norwegian University of Science and Technology in the late 1980s. [1] The process takes place in an aeration tank with plastic carriers that a biofilm can grow on.

  6. Secondary treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_treatment

    Secondary treatment (mostly biological wastewater treatment) is the removal of biodegradable organic matter (in solution or suspension) from sewage or similar kinds of wastewater. [ 1 ] : 11 The aim is to achieve a certain degree of effluent quality in a sewage treatment plant suitable for the intended disposal or reuse option.

  7. Biosand filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BioSand_Filter

    Biosand filter. A biosand filter (BSF) is a point-of-use water treatment system adapted from traditional slow sand filters. Biosand filters remove pathogens and suspended solids from water using biological and physical processes that take place in a sand column covered with a biofilm. BSFs have been shown to remove heavy metals, turbidity ...
