The footnotes to the table say that all the technologies incorporate a primary sedimentation tank and, for biological treatment, an activated sludge process.
The sludge will become putrescent in a short time once anaerobic bacteria take over, and must be removed from the sedimentation tank before this happens.
Typically, a trickling filter is followed by a clarifier or sedimentation tank for the separation and removal of the sloughing.
Phosphate forms precipitates with the metal ions and is removed together with the sludge in the separation unit (sedimentation tank, flotation tank, etc.).
In 1930, the authorities installed sedimentation tanks which allowed the heavier solids to deposit.
Early efforts to combat these problems included the use of sedimentation tanks, disinfection by silver ionization and cleaning of the distribution network.
The third phase was split into two parts, which initially involved the building of new primary sedimentation tanks.
Once these were operational in 1969, the old sedimentation tanks were converted to become temporary storm sewage tanks.
Sludge bulking occurs when the sludge fails to separate out in the sedimentation tanks.
Most aqueduct systems included sedimentation tanks, sluices and distribution tanks to regulate the supply at need.
This flocculating agent binds together the impurities, which sink and are removed in sedimentation tanks.
In 1891, sedimentation tanks were added to the works, and the sludge was carried by steam boats and dumped further out into the estuary, at sea.
Sedimentation tanks are typically designed within a range of overflow rates of 0.5 to 1.0 gallons per minute per square foot (or 1.25 to 2.5 meters per hour).
