Wherever you go, the principles are the same, settle the solids out, treat the resulting liquor, settle out the biological solids and get rid of the water to the environment and the solids somewhere else. You can join these processes up in all sorts of novel and interesting ways but the principles usually stay much the same. 876:
done. There's lots and lots of information that can be added here, and just because you "don't think it's important for the public to know" doesn't mean it shouldn't be added. There's whole processes, equipment, methods, equipment names, and various other things that aren't listed in the article that are actually really quite important if you're even semiserious about the subject. What about hydroseperators? Different types of hydroseperators for different purposes? The difference between a settling tank and a hydroseperator and their relative merits? Different types of drying equipment? --

soda (for those really tough stains!), bleach, chlorinated solvents react with other components or evaporate off during the aeration stage. Alkaline materials tend to saponify fats producing soaps and glycerine; chlorine from bleach mostly oxidises organic components producing innocuous chloride ion. However; some difficult or potentially toxic materials do remain including small concentrations of halogenated organics, pharmaceutical residues, hormone residues, medical radio-isotopes etc. all of which, very greatly diluted, are discharged into the environment.

broad, probably tier four, headings setting out the broad topics which might be "Inputs", "Processes", and "Outputs" and within these describe the components in simpler English while still quoting the accepted technical term. This probably means re-using the same ref or refs several times, but that isn't a problem. The text already says it is technical and complicated, so chopping the explanation up into easier to digest paragraphs should aid comprehension. I would suggest that the section is looked at again. The starting sentence includes

households, some wastewater from industries or commercial activities as well as stormwater. "Wastewater treatment plant" also should redirect to here (at the moment it redirects to "water treatment" which is not helpful). The term "sewage treatment plant" is also used but in my opinion WWTP is more common worldwide. Note there is a separate article on "industrial wastewater treatment" which could nicely be linked to from the page of "wastewater treatment" when it is called wastewater treatment instead of "sewage treatment".
254: 2654:
industrial wastewater treatment plants (and even they may use biological processes such as activated sludge) - and for that there is already a decent Knowledge page of its own (called industrial wastewater treatment). In any case, a redirect from wastewater treatment to "water treatment" is wrong... I don't quite understand your idea for a disambiguation page? Which terms would be listed on such a page? Don't we need to have several? Would you agree to have a redirect from wastewater treatment to sewage treatment?
233: 200: 359: 338: 726:"Developing countries as diverse as Egypt, Algeria, China or Colombia have invested substantial sums in wastewater treatment without achieving a significant impact in terms of environmental improvement. Even if wastewater treatment plants are not properly operated, it can be argued that the environmental impact is limited in cases where the assimilative capacity of the receiving waters (ocean with strong currents or large rivers) is high, as it is often the case." 486: 465: 369: 850:
shared on what factors into decisions on how sewage works are structured. If this is not possible, then at least a few of the most common arrangements, and then a description of the variables that determine what methods are used where would be desireable. There are so few constants in the world of sewage treatment, that it would be impossible to structure one article around a "typical" sewage works, because such a sewage works does not exist.--

excellent heat and mass transfer characteristics. In a fluidized bed reactor, the substrate is passed upward through the immobilized enzyme bed at a high velocity to lift the particles. However the velocity must not be so high that the enzymes are swept away from the reactor entirely. This causes low mixing; these type of reactors are highly suitable for the exothermic reactions. It is most often applied in immobilized enzyme catalysis

hydrogen and metals. The result is oil, light combustible gases such as methane, propane and butane, water with soluble salts, carbon dioxide, and a small residue of inert insoluble material that resembles powdered rock and char. All organisms and many organic toxins are destroyed. Inorganic salts such as nitrates and phosphates remain in the water after treatment at sufficiently high levels that further treatment is required.
1387:, though I would consider "industry" loosely a synonym for "sector" here. Either one would certainly include non-commercial WWT and conveyancing, and the widely differing forms in different countries, range of technologies etc - a real umbrella term... As you say, sewage is a subset of wastewater; and I strongly feel that there needs to be a single place to house an overview of the whole 575: 554: 191: 2061:
exact same quantity. Or that most of that water you dumped never reaches the most downstream basin/reservoir in your state - it evaporates. Yes, this is (mostly) all due to the cattle wars. I'm not sure of the legality in other countries but this tends to be a true pattern, wherever water rights were literally fought over, which is practically everywhere.

I have seen such conditions at locations in Western Australia, Queensland, , Greece, France and Spain and I am certain that most developed countries have their own examples. 3637:. The aim here is to show the variety of sewage treatment process and sizes that exist around the world, i.e. not to just focus on the activated sludge process. For the same reason, I have also created an image collage for the lead now. We can discuss further if I found a good balance or if we need different photos that are more suitable/appealing. 3552: 1071:; one primary use for them is wastewater and sewage treatment. I've linked back here, but I'm not sure how much detail I should go into on how they function as wastewater treatment systems. At the moment, I'm working on a description of their design for different purposes and plan to provide examples. Any suggestions? 2710:
concentrations may be so different from sewage that pretreatment is required prior to discharge to a municipal sewer. The fact that many large municipalities use a single collection system routing varied wastes through their sewage treatment plants may obscure the disadvantages of combined wastewater treatment.

Then the 4th tier headings could follow with a common English explanation of the terms where they are less obvious and a rationale for their inclusion in the assessment and design. Happy to help and advise as any change goes along, but my ability to contribute much is inhibited by real life at present. 3797:
For the lay reader and even the moderately well informed reader, these comma separated lists are quite intimidating. Within them the individual terms are also highly specialised and probably need to be individually explained, at least in some cases. I think that I might be inclined to to start with a

OK, I see what you mean. So can you set up those two disambiguation pages? That would be good. - But "water treatment" is not the top level entry because water is not equal to wastewater. If I look for wastewter treatment, I would never look under water treatment. Water treatment primarily stands for

I agree that this section needed more work. I have done a bit but it needs more. I have moved the part about Israel to a new section on reuse, as it's more about reuse. I don't think it would be very interesting to have a by-country section as the situation in almost all developing countries is quite

This sections seems like an indiscriminate collection of information. The thing that seemed wrong to me initially was the inclusion of Israel, which is a developed country, but actually the section is problematic overall. It mostly provides random information from three countries: Venezuela, Iran and

Following edit has been removed; although the header "Circular sedimentation tanks" is best swapped for "Settling basin", I think it's accurate to place it at a seperate section. If you look at the schematic on the article, circular sedimentation tanks also come behind the rectangular, aerated/vortex

Catfish are used in septic tanks in Indonesia, to eat the waste and prevent the tank from filling up with solids too quickly. I can't find a valid source, so I'll just offer these links for now, and hope that someone comes up with a source. I might try and co-author a journal article on it next year,

Ah good news: the publisher just sent me an e-mail to say that this volume (volume 1) is in fact CC BY. He wrote: "It has been agreed with Marcos von Sperling that the licence for volumes 1-6 will be CC BY. Vol 7 is CCBY NC ND. This information will be added to the homepages of the book." I will add

I propose to change the name of this article to "wastewater treatment". The term sewage is more and more being replaced with "wastewater". Already in the lead paragraph we speak of wastewater. Sewage used to be just for household wastewwater but in municipal sewer systems there is always a mixure of

I am a retired ChE with no sewage plant knowledge. I found the article a good introduction; however, I would suggest adding a specific discussion of the process flow diagram shown in the article. Its content does not relate directly to the text, resulting in unnecessary difficulty in understanding
1696:
I removed the "advertisement" notice. The content seems neutral enough to me. The mere fact that some sections will have more detail than others -- an unavoidable consequence of Knowledge's method -- may result in some portions seeming laudatory or hortatory. Anyone who has knowledge of different

For example, one process which combines secondary treatment and settlement is the Sequential Batch Reactor (SBR). Typically, activated sludge is mixed with raw incoming sewage and mixed and aerated. The resultant mixture is then allowed to settle producing a high quality effluent. The settled sludge

The article includes lists of "Possible Equipment" that I do not recognize. I have been a water professional for over 30 years and do try to keep up. I suspect that there may be brand names mixed in. I feel that an encyclopedia article should not include these in the main treatment article, although

I hadn't realised "sewerage" was UK-centric, but it does seem to be. So the umbrella term should probably be "wastewater" (or "wastewater system" or possibly "sanitation"), not least because "wastewater industry" is the preferred term for the industry. The category needs changing too, if we agree on
1102:
Is 'Sewerage' not a more appropriate title for any article on sewers, pumps, etc? In my experience, the word 'sewers' refers exclusively to pipes, and not the other components of sewerage such as pumping stations. Sewer could then be used to refer to sewage pipe history/technology/usage which is a
841:
I propose that, rather than going through the process step by step (which is going to be incorrect the second you start looking at a different plant, as the author seems to've taken his information from one specific plant in Wales), processes used on most sites should be described individually, each

Sounds good, please go ahead. I don't have much time at the moment for the topics around wastewater (my main focus currently is climate change). I just came back to this article in order to ensure there is no copyright violation that I could have introduced when using that book by von Sperling... I
2653:
Thanks, so we agree that wastewater is a bit broader than sewage? So wastewater (treatement) could be the main article and sewage (treatment) could be one thereunder? However, there is no real difference between a wastewater treatment plant and a sewage treatment plant, except in the case of purely

Circular sedimentation tanks, clarifiers, primary settlement tanks, secondary settlement tanks, sludge consolidation tanks - call them what you like, but they are probably the most common tank in the business and are mentioned throughout the article and therefore don't need a separate section as if

Soaps are organic, as are most detergents and other laundry products - nearly all or which are either chemically bound into fats and greases and skimmed of the primary tank or are degraded biologically in a filter bed or activated sludge tank. Truly inorganic materials such as washing soda, caustic

A friend of mine that worked in water treatment always use to point out what he called Primary Settlement Tanks or PST's when we went past sewage works. As far as I can see there isn't a direct reference to them in this artical. Is that something that is missing? He was mainly refering to items

1195:
I agree that this article needs to be divided into a number of separate topics and, as I noted before, I would certainly like to see the Sewerage part separated off as a priority. My problem was in finding a title that reflected widespread usage across the English speaking world - Sewerage seesm to

Unfortunately my personal experience is limited to the UK and Aus. Doing a quick google search seems to indicate that the term 'sewer system' is used in the US alongside 'sewerage' which might account for the confusion. The american Columbia Encyclopedia seem to concur with the UK/Aus definition.

Let's do this -- there should be a section describing standard treatment protocols in developed countries, a subsection pointing out international differences (say, between US, UK, europe, australian treatment methods), and another section entirely dealing with the environmental impact of variously

The choice of a wastewater solid treatment method depends on the amount of solids generated and other site-specific conditions. However, in general, composting is most often applied to smaller-scale applications followed by aerobic digestion and then lastly anaerobic digestion for the larger-scale
1639:
Alum is very widely used as a coagulant in potable water treatment, and used as well in waste water treatment plants where space is an issue. Indeed, it increases the sedimentation speed and thus reduces the size of the sedimentation tank, especially associated with a lamellar sedimentation tanks.
1106:
I agree that in British usage, sewerage refers to and includes all that infrastructure used to convey sewage from its origin to the point of disposal and therefore includes pipes, valves, pumps, screens etc. I would be happy to see this separated out and included in a linked articlee provided that

The carbon absorption following biological treatment is particularly effective in reducing both the BOD and COD to low levels. A fluidized bed reactor is a combination of the most common stirred tank packed bed, continuous flow reactors. It is very important to chemical engineering because of its

A major reason this is not practiced more widely in the USA for example, is that states have laws against reuse of water as you're somehow 'stealing' it from downstream users. Nevermind that you go and just take more of your quota from your reservoirs and dump your waste downstream in almost the

The disadvantage of such processes is that precise control of timing, mixing and aeration is required. This precision is usually achieved by computer controls linked to many sensors in the plant. Such a complex, fragile system is unsuited to places where such controls may be unreliable, or poorly
1628:
I have reverted a new reference to the use of Alum coagulants in sedimentation. I am not aware of this practice, which sounds very expensive, especially as most sewage settles adequately without chemical assistance. If Alum is widely used, a reference would be useful and some idea of where in the

In addition to correct a mistake in the definition of "mesophilic" and "thermophilic", I deleted the reference to large tanks were sludge is supposed to be left for weeks in anaerobic conditions. I don't really understand what the original writer is talking about, as non-heated closed anaerobic

Wastewater treatment currently consumes about 15 GW or about 3% of the electrical power produced in the United States. Domestic, industrial and animal wastewater together however contains about 17 GW of potential energy. At present, this energy is still untapped, yet could be extracted using a

I've noticed that the sequence in which each part of the sewage works process is in a specific sequence, as if it were saying "this is the order in which the seperate processes occur", but this is in fact incorrect as each plant arranges their process in a slightly different way, with slightly

The choice between circular or rectangular tanks is largely a function of available space and volume of wastewater to be treated. Rectangular clarifiers are used where space restrictions or very large flows encourage common wall construction of multiple basins within a small land footprint.
2175:
I have removed the following text from the article because it seems to make little sense to me as part of the sewage treatment process. If someone can re-draft it so that it make sense to the ordinary reader and assuming that it is still relevant to this article, it could then be re-inserted.

In many countries strapped for water, it is necessary to recycle water from sewage treatment plants into either potable water, requiring high purity, or irrigation water, permitting a lower quality. I was rather surprised not to see either feature mentioned in this article, which is therefore

This issue still requires looking at. I just realised that when it comes to the global situation, the term used in most publications by the UN is "wastewater treatment" but we would call it "sewage treatment" within the Knowledge context. As a result, there is now a bit of new content on the

Although other wastewaters are commonly treated with sewage for reasons including dilution and economy of scale, merger would obscure both the significantly different treatment requirements for differing wastewaters and the reduced fraction of pollutants removed from combined wastewaters.
1349:. It is treated by the wastewater industry (whatever that may be from country to contry). It is also treated in communities, by private enterprise and by individual house-holders. Hence my reluctance to bundle this in with the waste water industry. I would be delighted to have an article 3016:
A new sewage sludge treatment process aimed at developing countries is currently under development. It is called the Omni Processor and is a self sustaining process which uses the solids of the sewage sludge as fuel to convert the waste water into drinking water and surplus electrical

Yes, let's do it. This will also help to improve the article on sewage sludge treatment which so far has almost no references. I would say ALL information about sewage sludge treatment should be moved to the existing
