| PROCESS AND OPERATION |
 |
| How do they work? |
|
The system of effluents treatment, BIOLEP, is based in the use of an aerobic bacteria spray that digests the organic elements which are present in the effluent, clarifying the water, without producing bad smell (as it happens in the Anaerobic Plants, Sceptic Pits and Open Oxidation Wells)
|
|
What processes are carried out?
The BIOLEP plant effluent treatment process has 4 phases carried out in an FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) modular tank system, as shown below. |

DIFFUSER ELEMENTS |
|
|
1º
EQUALIZER TANK (TE)
In this first phase, the volume of residual water is received indiscriminately. It is designed to absorb the consumption peaks.
From this tank, the waste water is pumped to a tank (TR – flow regulator), which supplies the aerobic phase (CA – aerobic reactor tank) with a constant flow.
|
 |
|
 |
2º
AEROBIC REACTOR TANK (CA)
Here the effluent is constantly agitated trough air injection using blowers.
The blowers incorporate calculated amounts of oxygen into the system, according to the composition of the effluent, allowing a colony of aerobic microorganisms to degrade the organic material present in the effluent, drastically reducing the effluent's biochemical oxygen (DBO 5) demand.
|
|
3º
SEDIMENTATION TANK (TS)
In this phase, the effluent does not have turbulence that interferes with the process of sedimentation of the solids in suspension and floc formed in the extended aeration process (clarification through precipitation).
To optimize clarification, parallel plaques are used to accelerate and increase the net sedimentation area. |
 |
|
The clarified effluent is evacuated to the next phase (disinfection) and the sediment mud is resent to the aeration chamber where it is reincorporated in the aerobic digestion process.
|
|
 |
4º
DISINFECTION CHAMBER (CC)
(CHLORINE CONTACT CHAMBER) In this last phase, the effluent is disinfected through the continuously use of chlorine dosed with a diaphragm pump. This disinfection system eliminates all traces of bacteriological contamination prior to evacuation of the treated effluent for final disposal. |
