Filed:

Nov 18, 2010

Appl. No.:

12/949160

Inventors:

Stephen A. Sabo - South Bend IN, US
Steven G. Davis - Plymouth IN, US
James J. Conley - Plymouth IN, US

Assignee:

A.K. Industries, Inc. - Plymouth IN

International Classification:

B01D 33/70

US Classification:

210151, 2105322

Abstract:

A wastewater treatment system for processing borne wastewater. The treatment system having a tank with an inlet and an outlet and an access assembly residing at the top of the treatment tank. The treatment tank having an aeration chamber where oxygen is added to the wastewater to encourage bacterial breakdown of the solid waste. The treatment tank also having a clarifying chamber separated by a frusto-conical wall. The treatment tank also containing an ultraviolet disinfection system which exposes the wastewater to ultraviolet light prior to the wastewater exiting the treatment tank such that bacteria in the wastewater is neutralized prior to discharge.

Assignee:

A.K. Industries, Inc. - Plymouth IN

International Classification:

C02F 3/30
C02F 3/28
C02F 3/04

Abstract:

A wastewater treatment system is provided having a pretreatment tank which receives wastewater from a wastewater source, and an aeration tank which is in fluid communication with the pretreatment tank. A recirculation pump is carried in the aeration tank and returns wastewater from the aeration tank to the pretreatment tank. The recirculation pump returns the wastewater according to a recirculation ratio R:I where R is the volumetric flow rate of wastewater through the recirculation pump and I is average volumetric flow rate of wastewater entering the pretreatment tank. A control panel cycles the recirculation pump on and off according to the recirculation ratio.
