Influence of air temperature on sewage temperature in sewerage system and in biological reactor

The aim of the research was defining temperature changes of sewage in sewerage system and in open biological reactor under the influence of atmospheric air temperature. The literature connected with sewage treatment doesn’t give unequivocal information regarding influence of air temperature on sewage temperature in the canalisation. Some authors claim that such a relationship doesn’t occur. The research carried out on the area of sewage treatment plant in Koszyce commune showed, that important relationship exists between mean daily atmospheric air temperature (tair) and mean daily temperature of sewage in sewerage system (tsew). This relationship may be with high accuracy (R2=0,78, p<0,001)described by a cubic polynomial equation: tsew = -0,0011·(tair)3 + 0,0232·(tair)2 + 0,3704·tair + 9,0554. In the research period, mean daily temperature of sewage in sewerage system was going under big fluctuations, from 6,35 to 17,56°C. Changes of sewage temperature in the collector during the day ranged between 0,35°C and 4,60°C. In the winter period, with mean daily air temperature under 5°C, sewage temperature in the canalisation lowered under 10°C, reaching its minimal value of 5,37°C. In biological reactor, which was built as a reinforced concrete open reservoir, mean daily sewage temperature ranged between 5,68 and 21,04°C. Whereas in the ...

Influence of chosen factors on sewage temperature in the flow of biological reactor

The aim of the research was defining influence temperature of the sewage flow from sewage system and the temperature of the atmospheric air on tempera-ture sewage in open biological reactor of flow. To research one chose the small sewerage system with the sewage treatment plant serving to 2000 PE (Population Equivalents) situated on the village-commune in the malopolska voivodeship. Within a period of research the sewerage accompanied sewage from 250 buildings. The average flow of sewage in the investigated year was from 110 to 120 m3•d-1. The research embraced the period of 12 months from 1 January to 31 December the year 2010. To describe this relationship used of the multiple re-gression of analysis. In the period of research ascertained the large variability of the average temperature of sewage flow from sewage system and large variability of average of the temperature of the atmospheric air. The average of mean daily temperature of sewage flow was 11.0 oC. The lowest of temperature of sewage flow was 4.9 oC and the highest was 20.5 oC. In the investigated year of mean daily of the temperature of the atmospheric air was 8.3 oC. The research of concerning of multiple regression of ...

The variability of sewage temperature in small sewer systems

The aim of the research was defining size and range temperature of the sewage in two small, villages sewage systems. Additionally aim was to defining influence temperature of the sewage flow from sewage system and the temperature of the atmospheric air on temperature sewage in open biological reactors of flow. The research embraced the period of 12 months from January to December the year 2011. To describe this relationship used of the multiple regression of analysis. The research performed in two small sewage systems situated on the village-commune in Nowe Brzesko and Spytkowice. Sewage systems are included in the 2000 PE (Population Equivalents). In the year period of research ascertained, that average temperature in year in small biological reactors to vary from 12,6÷12,7oC, however its range is from 5,6oC to 19,2oC. Temperature of sewage in small, villages sewage systems does not exceed 10,0oC in period ⅓ year, as indicated by the permanent cooling down. Size of sewage temperature in small sewage systems is to a much greater extent then to sewage in large, urban sewage systems. Further, the temperature of the sewage in the bioreactor has a very large extent the temperature of the influent sewage and to a ...

Effectiveness of elimination of nitrogen in domestic sewage treatment plants with activated sluge

The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of the removal of nitrogen compounds in two domestic sewage treatment plants operate based on activated sludge technology. In addition, the effect of sewage temperature in the bioreactors analyzed the effectiveness of the elimination rate. Also analyzed the treatment Turbojet EP-2 with a capacity designed from 1.2 to 1.8 m3•d-1, and treatment Turbojet EP-4 with a capacity of 3.5÷5.0 designed m3•d-1. During the study period the two objects were hydraulically underloaded. Based on studies conducted in 2008-2010 found that the average concentration of total nitrogen in raw sewage were 82.6 mgNog•dm-3 in the treatment plant Turbojet EP-2 and 102.0 mgNog•dm-3 in the treatment Turbojet EP-4, the mean concentration of total nitrogen in treated wastewater were 30.2 mgNog•dm-3 in the treatment Turbojet EP-2 and 65.5 mgNog•dm-3 in the treatment Turbojet EP-4. During the study found large fluctuations in the concentrations of total nitrogen in treated wastewater, which ranged from 12.2 to 77.1 mgNog•dm-3 in the treatment Turbojet EP-2 and from 15.3 to 130.7 mgNog•dm-3 in the treatment Turbojet EP-4. This demonstrates the instability occurring processes of nitrification and denitrification. High impact on the percentage of disposal process was nitrogen temperature treatment ...
