Advanced Methods for the Treatment of Domestic Sewage

摘要

Several advanced methods for the treatment of domestic sewage have been developed at ORNL. Because these methods are currently at the bench and large pilot stages of development, they may be particularly applicable to state highway rest station problems, which often represent a practicable scale-up. Cross-flow filtration, which has been tested at ORNL and at the Oak Ridge East End Sewage Treatment Plant, produces a high-quality effluent which might be suitable for lawn watering after disinfection. Anaerobic filter processes, either alone or in conjunction with a tertiary process such as ion exchange, may also provide adequate waste treatment for rest stop applications. (ERA citation 04:010958)
