Abstract
A waste distribution device controllable by a user. Waste distributor device may be mechanically actuated, such as via a cable tension system or otherwise, and may allow a user to determine the channel in which waste will be deposited. Waste distribution device may be paired with a wastewater treatment system such as an anaerobic digester, and may be used in order to control how much waste is deposited in the wastewater treatment device and what contents are deposited. This may allow a user to avoid disrupting their wastewater treatment system by adding harmful chemicals or by preventing harmful byproducts or harmful concentrations thereof from being produced.
Claims17
A wastewater distribution device, comprising:
- a distributor, the distributor having a valve by which wastewater is diverted into one or more outflow channels, wherein the distributor has an irregular internal geometry at each of the one or more outflow channels;
- and
- a control coupled to the distributor valve such that operation of the control modifies the position of the distributor valve, wherein at least one spring release biases the distributor valve against the irregular internal geometry of a first outflow channel of the one or more outflow channels, and operation of the control works against a force of the at least one spring release to bias the distributor valve against the irregular internal geometry of at least one second outflow channel of the one or more outflow channels;
- a wastewater treatment system coupled to the at least one second outflow channel of the distributor and configured to receive wastewater;
- and
- a waste disposal channel coupled to the first outflow channel of the distributor and configured to receive wastewater.
A wastewater treatment system, comprising:
- an inlet pipe;
- a waste dissolver tank;
- a dispenser pipe;
- and
- a treatment tank;
- wherein the digester pipe links a wastewater inlet and the waste dissolver tank, the dispenser pipe links the water dissolver tank and the treatment tank, and the dispenser pipe further dispenses wastewater into the treatment tank.
