๐ฐActivated sludge process (ASP)
๐ถActivated sludge:-
It is sludge containing large concentration of highly active aerobic micro organisms.
๐ธASP works on the principle of suspended culture system.
๐ธComponents of ASP
A) Primary settling tank :-
~ Detention time - 1.5 to 2 hr.
B) Aeration tank :-
~ Detention time- 4 to 8 hr
C) Secondary sedimentation tank :-
~ Detention time- 1.5 to 2 hr.
D) Sludge thickener & sludge digestion tank
๐ธActivated sludge process parameters
1.Hydraulic retention time (HRT):- It is the ratio of volume of tank to the rate of sewage flow into the tank.
2.Volumetric loading rate or BOD loading rate:- It is ratio of BOD applied to unit volume of aeration tank.
3. Food to microorganism ratio (F/M):- It is defined as the ratio of kg of BOD applied per day to kg of MLSS in aeration tank.
4.Mean cell residence time (Sludge age):- It is defined as mass of cell in the reactors to mass of cells wasted per day.
5.Sludge volume index:-
It is the volume occupied in ml by 1 gm MLSS after settling for 30 minute from 1L sewage sample is known as sludge volume index.
๐ธUsual values adpoted
๐ F/M :- 0.4 to 0.3
๐ MCRT :- 5 to 15 days
๐ Efficiency :- 85 - 95%
๐ Recycling ratio :- 0.25 - 0.5
๐ธ Operational problems associated with ASP
1. Rising of sludge :- Settled sludge contains large number of live cells. They oxidise the dead cells and release nitrogen. The nitrogen causes the sludge to risep and increases the Xe value.
~ Remedies :- Increase Qr & Decrease Q
2. Bulking of sludge :- Large number of dead cell in settled sludge and growth of filamentous organisms. Occurs when SVI โ 150
~ Remedies :- Bring down SVI (โ 150), Increase pH, Increase DO, decrease F/M ratio.
