Abstract
Disclosed herein is an advanced treatment system processing contaminated water or fouled water/waste water, and particularly, a system for membrane fouling control and reduction in the amount of sludge producing in a membrane combined-type fouled water/waste water advanced treatment system, and more particularly, a system capable of making sludge soluble using plasma and then re-utilizing cell byproducts of destructed sludge as a supply source of external carbon source, and possibly capable of removing a cake layer formed on a membrane using each kind of radical and ozone generated by plasma.
Claims4
A fouled/waste water advanced treatment system sequentially containing an anaerobic vessel, an anoxic vessel and an aerobic vessel, the advanced treatment system comprising:
- a plasma discharge vessel continuously disposed at the aerobic vessel;
- a waste sludge conveyor pipe transferring sludge discharged from the aerobic vessel into the plasma discharge vessel, wherein each of the aerobic vessel and the plasma discharge vessel comprises means for removing a submerged-type membrane from or placing the submerged-type membrane inside the aerobic vessel or the plasma discharge vessel;
- a sludge conveyor pipe transferring sludge byproducts electrically discharged from the plasma discharge vessel into the anoxic vessel;
- an automation apparatus moving the submerged-type membrane between the aerobic vessel and the plasma discharge vessel;
- and
- means for selectively operating:
- a mode for electrically discharging the sludge when the plasma discharge vessel is operated in a state in which the submerged-type membrane is placed inside the aerobic vessel;
- and
- a mode for cleaning the membrane when the plasma discharge vessel is operated in a state in which the submerged-type membrane is placed inside the plasma discharge vessel.
