Abstract
A method for the efficient operation of a waste treatment apparatus comprising an anaerobic-aerobic sequencing batch reactors (SBR). The method comprises the synchronized transfer of waste between the reactors, for preventing unsafe buildup of pressure in the anaerobic reactor and reaching unsafe levels.
Claims4
A method for preventing unsafe buildup of pressure in pressure in at least one anaerobic reactor in a system comprising two anaerobic reactors in recycling communication with one another and at least one aerobic reactor in sequencing batch reactor (SBR) arrangement, while avoiding vacuum in a second one of said anaerobic reactors, each of said reactors being in recycling communication with at least one other reactor, comprising the steps of:
- i) feeding a feedstock waste of a specified volume to a first anaerobic reactor;
- and simultaneously,
- ii) transferring a portion of waste of said specified volume from said second anaerobic reactor to said aerobic reactor.
