Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate a de-watering filtrate treatment and the possibility of securing biological treatment capacity by changing the structure of the secondary clarifier. Accordingly, the column test was conducted to determine the effect of polymer in the de-watering filtrate on sludge sedimentation. Also, the characteristics of de-watering filtrate processing was evaluated through batch test and continuous processing operation. The results showed that sludge settling velocity increased with higher polymer concentration, and that effluent SS concentration was found to decrease. Regarding processing characteristics of de-watering filtrate, the removal efficiency of TSS and TBOD5 increased as the length of secondary clarifier was longer. Also, comparing injections into anoxic tank and secondary clarifier, de-watering filtrate by continuous infusion treatment process showed stability in both conditions. Therefore, by modifying the structure of secondary clarifier, efficient processing of de-watering filtrate is expected to be possible and processing capacity of small sewage treatment plants is considered to be improved.
