Abstract

AbstractThe Biocarbone process is a new system for water and effluent purification in which biological treatment and physical filtration take place in the same reactor. Because the use of the process for tertiary treatment of sewage effluent had not been fully investigated, a pilot‐scale evaluation was undertaken at Severn Trent's Wigston sewage‐treatment works. This paper presents the results.The study corroborates performance information published by the manufacturer. It shows that the process is an alternative to conventional technology for producing fully‐nitrified tertiary effluents having low biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and suspended solids (SS) concentrations.
