5.1.   Perform used water treatment

• After conducting research,  it   was discovered   that   wastewater is primarily generated from   two    sources:    human    and    animal waste, as well as daily activities like bathing, cleaning, and cooking…
• These sources contribute to the presence of various components in domestic wastewater, including biodegradable organic substances, inorganic substances, detergents, grease, and microorganisms,…
• Of these components, organic matter is the most prevalent and includes protein compounds, hydrocarbons, and other substances that are difficult to break down. The concentration of            organic            matter            in            domestic wastewater typically ranges from 150 to 450 mg/l, which can have negative impacts on the survival and development of natural ecosystems .
• Domestic and urban wastewater contains a significant amount of both organic and inorganic compounds, including:
  • Suspended matter: This component is typically found in granular form in urban wastewater and consists of approximately 25% minerals and 75% organic matter.
  • Insoluble solids: These include substances such as organic nitrogen, ammonia, organic phosphorus, and inorganic phosphorus.
  • Harmful microorganisms, bacteria, and germs are also present in urban.
  • Additionally, urban wastewater often contains moss, algae, trash, and mud.

• The domestic wastewater treatment diagram can be explained as follows:
  • Wastewater from sources such as bathrooms, toilets, and kitchens is first filtered      to      remove      residues,      large solids, and suspended impurities using garbage screens. The filtered wastewater is then directed to either a grease separator tank to remove oil and grease or a septic tank to decompose residues and prevent clogged
  • According to the domestic wastewater treatment diagram, the first step is to transfer the wastewater into  a   collection   tank, also   known   as   a regulating This tank is responsible for regulating the flow of wastewater into the treatment system.
  • Next, the wastewater is fed into a domestic wastewater treatment system that utilizes biotechnology, specifically an anoxic This tank relies on anoxic microorganisms to decompose nitrogen-containing compounds and phosphorus found in domestic wastewater
  • After this, the wastewater is   then transmitted to   the Aerotank   This tank is responsible for removing organic substances that cause odors and foul odors, as well as eliminating pathogens and disease-causing bacteria found in domestic wastewater.
  • Next, the wastewater will be transferred into a sedimentation tank (according to traditional technology), which has the effect of settling sludge, sand and suspended particles out of the wastewater. Wastewater containing sludge is passed through a sludge tank where the sludge settles at the bottom of the sludge tank and is then removed from the system for The remaining wastewater will be transmitted back to the equalization tank to continue the circulatory process of domestic wastewater treatment according to the diagram of domestic wastewater treatment.
