Hydraulic conditions: volume flow rate of wastewate -> m3/h The basic principle of a WWTP is
• separate suspended solid from dissolved matter
Waste load conditions: contamination of wastewater -> mg/l, g/m3 • suspended solid is removed by sedimentation
• a part of dissolved matter is food for bacteria: BOD
Both conditions vary during a day/year • the another part is e.g. solved NaCl…
• due to behavior of residents (water use profile over 24 h…)
• due rain etc Cleaning of wastewater is based on
• mechanical separation by screens (primary treatment)
Hydraulic load (m3/h) determines the geometric size of a WWTP • use of gravitation: sedimentation (primary treatment)
• use of metabolism of microorganisms (secondary treatment)
Hydraulic load is determined taking averages/peaks + safety factors • use of precipitation (tertiary treatment)
Waste load determines the operation of the WWTP Water quality after cleaning: ok to release in environment
Waste load (g/l) of wastewater is characterized by Sum-Parameters Secondary treatment (digestion by bacteria): T and pH dependent
• BOD (= how much digestible waste is in the water?) • exponential bacterial growth rate
• COD • but Monod kinetic: limit of growth rate
• Total Suspended Solid
• Total Nitrogen (NH4, NO3..) 2 general kinds of bacteria: digesting
• …. • C-compounts (sugar, proteins, fat …)
• rapid growth
• + • N-compounds (NH4, NO2, NO3)
• slow growth

• Temperature-dynamics:
• The WWTP see low T in winter and high T in summer
