  • Control system for nitrogen and phosphorus removal
    Patent number: 10207941
    Abstract: A central controller is used in a treatment method and system for removing at least one of nitrogen or phosphorus from wastewater. Based on data received from a plurality of sensors, each of which is coupled to a component of a wastewater treatment system, a control signal is sent from the central controller to at least one chemical delivery system, which dispenses at least one chemical compound into the wastewater in an amount effective to reduce the level of nitrogen or phosphorus in the wastewater.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 2, 2015
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2019
    Assignee: Environmental Operating Solutions, Inc.
    Inventors: Samuel Augustine Ledwell, Albert Paul Togna

  • Two-stage oxygenation system for use with a fluidized bed reactor
    Publication number: 20090001028
    Abstract: A two-stage oxygenation system for use with a fluidized bed reactor is provided. The oxygenation system includes an oxygenation vessel coupled to receive oxygen from a source of oxygen, and a separator vessel coupled to receive feed from a source of feed. The separator vessel is coupled to receive recovered oxygen from the oxygenation vessel and recycle from the fluidized bed reactor. The oxygenation vessel is coupled to receive feed and recycle from the separator and to discharge oxygenated feed and recycle for delivery to the fluidized bed reactor and the recovered oxygen for delivery to the separator vessel.
