How To Choose The Best Disc Diffusers For Your Waste Water Treatment Plant

Waste water treatment technology has progressed in leaps and bounds in the recent decades, thanks to growing awareness about preserving the environment and keeping valuable resources sustainable. Fresh water is the single most valuable resource the Earth has to provide. We cannot afford to be frivolous when it comes to waste water treatment and management. There are many types of waste water treatment systems available and one of the most common technologies used for such systems involves aeration of the water to encourage the growth of bacteria which in turn breaks down the foul waste matter into safe effluent matter. The most popular type of aeration system used involves the use of disc diffusers to pump air into the waste water to oxygenate it.

Microscopic organisms like bacteria aren’t always harmful. There are many such bacteria which are vital for keeping our environment safe and clean because they breakdown harmful waste matter and render it harmless. Such bacteria are very important in the treatment of foul waste water too. Whether it is a question of a residential colony or an industry, waste water management cannot be compromised in any way. An effective treatment system is one in which water is treated and recycled for other uses. For the recycling of water, it must be safe and not contain any foul matter. The most effective way to treat such water is with beneficial bacteria which break down foul matter and the resulting water can be filtered and effectively reused for purposes such as gardening.

One of the problems with the treatment of waste water is the fact that such water does not have enough dissolved oxygen to support colonies of beneficial bacteria. So, the same principle that is used to aerate aquariums is used to aerate waste water too. Perforated tubes or plates or discs are immersed into tanks holding waste water and compressed air is pumped into the water to aerate it. This air rises to the surface of the water in the form of bubbles and such systems are also classified depending on the size of the perforations into “fine bubble systems or coarse bubble systems”. There are advantages and disadvantages to both types of systems. There are no set rules for the choice of the right treatment system for waste water and the choice must be made according to the prevailing conditions where the water is to be treated.

If you are choosing disc diffusers for your waste water treatment system, you must ensure that what you are choosing is compatible for your system. The reliability and performance of the aeration system used will also define the design of the system itself, so it is important to use a system that provides adequate oxygenation. A system that is not efficient enough to provide the right oxygenation levels can prove to be a problem because it will use up too much energy. Inefficient energy consumption will definitely lead to more operating costs and this is something you must avoid by choosing a system that has the right oxygen transfer efficiency for your needs

What Life Will Be Like Without Sewage Treatment Plants?

Humans are the most wasteful species on Earth. We generate the largest amounts of waste material, be it biological waste or other even more harmful kinds of waste like plastic bags which take tens to thousands of years to disintegrate! The first plastic bags ever produced are still probably clogging up a landfill somewhere! If you feel as strongly about the environment as I do, then you probably already know how invaluable good sewage treatment plants are. Sewers are the most vital infrastructure we can have because the most basic sign of the civilized or modern world is a good waste disposal system that is both effective and sustainable. The waste water that is discharged in large quantities from both homes and industries can turn our oceans into cesspools in no time at all if it is not treated and rendered safe before disposal. Fortunately, technology on this front is improving on a daily basis and there are many sustainable and practical methods that can be put to use for this purpose.

The basic function of sewage treatment plants is to remove contaminants from waste water and the ideal goal of such processes is to enable the reuse of at least a percentage of the waste water involved. There are many methods that can be used for the process, depending on the type of sewer system in place. The sewage can either be treated close to its origins in smaller treatment facilities or it can be transported to a public or municipal treatment facility through a system of pipes and pumps. Sewer systems can be either used to purify effluents from homes and industries or they can be combined with sewer systems that also carry away storm water.

Such combined systems need facilities of much larger capacity to deal with the amount of storm water that can enter the system after heavy rains. In fact, it was watching such a combined sewer system get overwhelmed by storm water and seeing puddles of sewage everywhere after one heavy downpour, which actually set me thinking about how we actually deal with waste water disposal! Without proper ways to deal with all the waste we create, can you even imagine what life will be like?!

Importance Of Sewage Treatment Plants In Protecting The Environment

Waste water treatment plants are otherwise called sewage treatment plants. It plays a pivotal role in treating the sewage waste that emanates from the homes and other commercial establishments. Waste water has to be treated inorder to prevent pollution to the environment. Untreated sewer waste can cause more damage to the environment by spreading diseases. Remember that sewage waste is not chemical waste that is ejected from the factories. Industrial plants have their own waste treatment systems. First the substance that can be eliminated in a simple manner is taken care off, for instance grease, oil and fats that can be skimmed from the surface. Next the secondary waste like biological contaminants is removed. For this microorganisms are employed to remove unwanted waste. Thirdly solid waste like sludge is dealt with and it is the most important part of sewage treatment process. Neeva aero solutions with their Fu-tsu blowers offer high quality water treatment solutions.




Once all the above processes are completed the water is free from pollutants that become eligible to be let out into the environment. Treated sewage does not pollute the environment. It is now just water and can be recycled for daily usage. We at Neeva aero solutions ensure that the water thus disposed can cause no harm to the living beings when they come in contact. The goal of our sewage treatment plants is to protect public health and hygiene. There are different methods of treating sewage depending on the degree of contamination. The treatment can be divided into physical, chemical and biological.

Neeva aero solutions ensure that safety procedures are in place. Regular inspections, tests and repairing guarantee the safety of the plant. The plant needs certain equipments for the process and the staff performs survey to find out if the guidelines are followed to the tee. PPE is one of the aspects of ensuring employee safety in our plants. Apart from this, engineering controls, work practices and meticulous planning seems to play a major role in our safety process. Remember sewage is the breeding ground for harmful bacteria and it can spread dangerous diseases. Hence the need to choose an appropriate sewage system like ours seems to be the right choice.
