Effects of Reduced Aeration in a Biological Aerated Filter.

摘要

eration is a major part of the operation cost in biological aerated filtration (BAF) systems for wastewater treatment. This thesis investigated the effect of reducing aeration at the City of Windsor's Lou Romano Water Reclamation Plant to find the lowest possible airflow while maintaining a satisfactory ammonia and biological oxygen demand (BOD) in the BAF effluent. A series of tests were conducted at different airflows in cell
