The invention relates to a method for the treatment of an aqueous waste stream, wherein: (a) an aqueous waste stream is separated into an effluent and waste sludge; and (b) the waste sludge is converted into predated waste sludge in a predation reactor, the predation reactor including a support comprising worms and the waste sludge being fed past the support comprising worms. The invention further relates to an plant in which the method may be carried out, in particular to an plant for the treatment of an aqueous waste stream that comprises a predation reactor having a support comprising worms, wherein the predation reactor has two compartments that are separated by the support comprising worms.
A method for the treatment of an aqueous waste stream, wherein:
Method according to any one of the preceding claims, wherein step (a) is carried out in a bioreactor.
Method according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the predation reactor comprises two compartments that are separated by the support comprising worms.
Plant for the treatment of an aqueous waste stream that comprises a predation reactor having a support comprising worms, wherein the predation reactor comprises two compartments that are separated by the support comprising worms.
Plant according to one of claims 11-14, wherein the support comprising worms comprises a fine-mesh separation device.
