The purpose is to refine water to a quality that is safe for reuse for unrestricted irrigation and other non potable uses. For this purpose, Kuwait has built and operated an advanced wastewater treatment plant with capacity of 500,000 m3·dl. This plant providing treatment beyond tertiary utilizes the process of Ultra Filtration （UF） and Reverse Osmosis （RO）. The reject water of this unit contains high concentration of total nitrogen and total phosphate. Safe disposal of this water into the environment or possible reuse needs substantial reduction of these chemicals. In this study, a bench scale up-flow sludge blanket filtration system was investigated. The system operated with an average Hydraulic-Retention Time （HRT） of 19 h, whereas, sludge age varied within the range of 14 days to 16.5 days. The results show that the average removal efficiencies of the system for Biological Oxygen Demand （BOD）, Chemical Oxygen Demand （COD） were over 86% and 82% respectively. The phosphate and nitrogen＇s average removal were found to be 50% and 45% respectively.展开更多

In this study, a lot of experiments are carried out to study the influence of various factors on the aniline destruction rate in the SCWO process with a novel experiment setup. The experimental results show that the aniline destruction rate rises with the increase of the residence time, the reaction temperature and the reaction pressure. A dynamics analysis of the aniline SCWO reaction is conducted and the dynamic equation is obtained.展开更多
