Abstract: Waste water treatment systems and methods are described that remove screenings, objects, and grit from waste water. The system includes a tank for receiving unfiltered waste water from an inlet and a flow screen installed in the tank to capture screenings that are objects too large to pass through the flow screen. A washing compactor ejects the screenings out of the system. Filtered water containing grit passes through the flow screen and under a velocity-diffusing baffle surrounding the flow screen into the tank to produce a grit slurry. A pump removes the grit slurry from the tank through piping to a dewatering device, and the dewatering device removes water from the grit slurry to produce dewatered grit. Filtered waste water and objects are transmitted out of the tank via an outlet after it flows over an overflow weir installed around an interior surface of a wall of the tank.

Abstract: A system for removing undesirable compounds from contaminated air includes a biofilter having a fuzzy-logic based controller. A contaminant, such as hydrogen sulfide, is removed from contaminated air by passing the contaminated air through the biofilter.

Abstract: An odor control composition may be dosed to a wastewater treatment system to control hydrogen sulfide levels. The composition may include a sulfide-reducing agent and an oxidizer. Synergy between the compounds of the odor control composition may facilitate efficient reduction of hydrogen sulfide levels. The sulfide-reducing agent and the oxidizer may be present in a single odor control composition or may be dosed to the system separately.

Abstract: Systems and methods for wastewater treatment. A nitrate source may be dosed to a collection tank, such as a wet well, for downstream control of hydrogen sulfide levels in the wastewater. A source of a strong oxidizer may also be dosed to the wet well. The oxidizer, such as chlorite, may temporarily interrupt denitrification processes in the wet well to prevent floatation of undesirable constituents therein. The oxidizer dosage may be generally consistent with the nitrate dosage. An ORP sensor may facilitate regulation of dosing. The nitrate and the oxidizer may be present in a single mixture to be dosed to the wet well.
