Abstract
An analysis of TPP wastewater, as well as technologies and equipment for their treatment, for choosing a rational mode and determining the maximum permissible concentrations of harmful substances characteristic of the energy industry before discharge into reservoirs was carried out. The compositions of the listed effluents are different and are determined by the type of thermal power plants (TPP) and the main equipment, its capacity, type of fuel, composition of the source water, method of water treatment, etc. For example, water after cooling turbine condensers and air coolers usually carries so-called thermal pollution, since its temperature is 8...10 ºС higher than the temperature of water in the water source. In some cases, cooling water can introduce foreign substances into natural reservoirs. In order to reduce the level of soil and groundwater pollution, local wastewater treatment facilities were constructed at thermal power stations. The second method is the collection of waste water in specially created containers with subsequent purification using sedimentation tanks and filters, which have anthracite or activated carbon as a filter material.
 TPP waste water is diverse and the chemical composition of each of the effluents is different. Wastewater treatment technology is complex and multi-stage and requires a large amount of various equipment.
 The ITTF of the National Academy of Sciences has developed a multi-purpose rotor-type aeration and oxidation plant (AORT), which works according to the method of discrete-pulse energy input (DPEI). This installation makes it possible to speed up the rate of heat and mass exchange of chemical reactions in water and water systems by 25-30 %. It makes it possible to reduce the duration of cleaning processes, reduce energy consumption by 2-3 times and consumption of reagents by 20-25 %. The AORT installation is used to clean sewage from iron, manganese, hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, sulfates, and nitrates.
