Water supply

Tomasz Bergel, Kazimierz KudlikChemical and bacteriological efficiency of DynaSand Filters in the water treatment plant supplying municipal water to Nowy Sacz. p.3-11

The aim of the study was to assess the removal efficiencies obtained with self-cleaning contact filters of DynaSand type for some physicochemical and bacteriological water pollutants. The filters are operated in the Water Treatment Plamt Swiniarsko, which supplies municipal water to the city of Nowy Sacz. The water being subjected to filtration is a mixture of surface and infiltrative waters. The value of the water quality parameters obtained with the DynaSand filters were compared to those achieved with the rapid pressure filters that were in the use before the modernization of the water treatment plant. Analysis of the result makes it clear that since the substitution of the self-cleaning DynaSand filters for the rapid pressure filters, both physicochemical and biological pollutants have been removed with the efficiency required. This means that the users have been supplied with water of desired quality. Although the period under study was characterized by the occurrence of extreme meteorological conditions (floods), the modernized filtration system not only guaranteed a reduction in water turbidity to the average value of 0.3 NTU, a decrease in color intensity to at least 5 gPT/m3, an the removal of iron compounds to the average value of 0.01 gFe/m3 but also provided simultaneous retention of more than 97% of coliform bacteria, and more than 99% of fecal streptococci Enterococcus faecalis or anaerobic spore-forming bacteria of the species Clostridium perfringens.
Key words: surface flow, filtration, DynaSand.

Water disposal

Tavastsherna K.S.Use of gravity sand filtration system at treatment facilities. Problems and solutions.p.12-24

Nowadays on the background of aggravating ecological situation method of gravity filtration is one of the main technological processes of waste waters treatment and aftertreatment created to decrease pollutant indicators in flows, which passed a stage of biological treatment, and achieve regulated standards for the discharge of sewage waters. Method of gravity filtration lies in water passing through the porous medium (filter loading) which retains residual suspended pollutants. In modern practice different methods of filtration organization, such as on the basis of single-chamber and two-chamber devices of different designs are used. Article presents that the main difference between these two methods is the ways of backwash implementation. It significantly affects on results of filter loading treatment that is in its turn has an impact on working cycle and clarified flows quality. Features of constructions and facilities are examined; advantages, disadvantages and frames of applicability are analyzed. Analysis of objects which are already operated with the use of gravity filtration in different parts of the world shows that there is a steady trend of reconstruction of the old drainage systems on the base of single-chamber devices with their subsequent replacement for two-chamber devices. Developing such reconstruction projects, it is necessary to take a lot of factors into account, for example, creation and provision of an adequate backwashing system which, however, is based on already existing system or on its complete absence; selection of proper configuration of backwashing supply canal; possibility of accommodating the whole complex of equipment in the existing depth and shape of the filter reservoir; analysis of the optimality of the filter medium.
Key words: gravity filtration, single-chamber drainage device, two-chamber drainage device, backwashing, filter loading.

Jurchenko V.A., Brigada E.V.The kinetic characteristics of concrete microbiological corrosion in the sewage networks p.51-61

According to statistics 75 % of accidents at ferroconcrete water disposal pipelines are caused by biogenic sulfuric corrosion. Till nowadays insufficient information about features of autotrophic bacteria life activity, absence of methods of their operative concentration control have not allowed developing effective ways of suppression of chemosynthesis in these object. The aim of this work is identification of quantitative indexes and mathematical modeling of thiobacilli association development on sewage pipeline upstructure part and process of concrete biogenic corrosion at these objects. On the basis of complex process study presented in the article necessary kinetic constants are defined; mathematical models of extremely acidophilic thiobacilli association development and process of concrete biogenic corrosion are developed. Mathematical model unit “Aerobic chemosynthesis of thiobacilli (oxidation of reducible sulfur compounds to sulfuric acid)” includes substrate diffusion process (H2S) from condensate moisture in biofilm and its consumption, whereas mathematical model unit “Microbiological sulfuric acid corrosion of concrete” includes mathematical description of diffusion of sulphuric acid formed by thiobacilli in concrete and its interaction with concrete hydrates.
Key words: sewage pipelines, biogenic sulfuric acid corrosion, mathematic modeling, kinetic constants, diffusion coefficient, biogenic acids diffusion behind corrosion.

The article provides the analysis of the Kharkov sewerage system. The major issues of sewage collector’s protection from corrosion are examined; it is showed that the main part in selection of materials for tunnel collector’s constructions recovery, apart from other technical and economic characteristics, is assigned to their corrosion resistance. Reliable water disposal is provided by performance of various technical and organizational measures. The most important measure is timely capital repairs and worn out sewage networks recovery. Methods of collectors recovery are considered; underground method of recovery of sewer pipeline in diameter of 1500 mm with the use of polyethylene short pipes in diameter of 1200 mm, implemented at repair of Juzhnaja street in Kharkov, is suggested.

Golub N.B., Hvorostina A.V., Levtun I.I.Manure utilization with microalgae chlorella vulgaris for biodiesel production p.71-79

For higher output of microalgae biomass, the scheme of production line for cultivation of Chlorella vulgaris with the use of poultry manure extract as a nutrient medium is proposed. The content of nitrogen in the manure as mineral salts, organic substances, and low-molecular organic substances, contributes to an increase in biomass of microalgae. Using mixotrophic medium allows reducing the period of illumination without changing the growth rate of the biomass. Found that the greatest increase in biomass growth observed in the frequency of the illumination: 4 hours light to 4 hours darkness. In the preparation of the extract the hydrogen ion concentration increases due to the hydrolysis of urea that may cause death of the microalgae. Therefore, before supplying the extract to photoreactor, medium is neutralized with an alkali. To ensure even illumination of culture, mixing and heating the medium with a mixture of air with CO2 is proposed. For separation of the biomass from the culture medium is proposed to use a high frequency sonication (50-60 kHz).
Key words: microalgae, CHLORELLA VULGARIS, manure, technological scheme, illumination, mixture, high frequency sonication, biodiesel.

The article analyzes approaches to regulation of pollutants content in surface waters which are used as water supply resources and waste water receivers as well. These approaches are active in Russia and the EU. It is presented that Russian sanitary and hygienic standards do not provide ecological well-being of water ecosystems which degrade and lose their resource value that causes problems in all spheres of water use. For providing ecological safety of surface waters it is necessary to find an ecosystem approach and develop regional standards on ecological Limiting Harmful Index according to recommendations adopted in the EU.
Key words: water ecosystems, MAC, hygienic standards, ecological limit load, ecological regulation.

It is found that placement of centrifugal vent valve in the top point of the pipe bend fully avoids water hammer especially when air content is up to 16% of the water flow. At this, degree of water separation is 80…85% and reasonable operating parameters meet this working condition. Use of centrifugal vent valve -pressure damper in the top point of the pipe bend avoids water hammer in the descending branch by means of air output from pipelines.
Key words: plumbing, vent valve, centrifugal action, pressure damper, test.

Water disposal

Serebrjakov D.V.Why do not package plants for waste water treatment work? . p.45-56

The article presents a common practice of low-capacity WWTP construction of domestic and surface run-off. Specific features of such plants operation are described; barriers to achieving the normative quality of treatment are listed. The most common varieties of complete factory-assembled treatment facilities: plants with membrane bioreactor, rotary biological contactor, SBR technologies, and with “classical” treatment plants with aerotanks are observed. The main pros and cons of these technological schemes from the point of view of their application for local treatment of small volume of waste water are presented. The enlarged technical and economic comparison of these technologies is given.

The problem of wastewater sludge utilization is examined. It is presented that the quality of sludge predetermines the way of its utilization. Techonology of vermicomposting (vermicultivation) is more preferable for agricultural use of waste water sludge. In this case the concentration of some toxicants (from the list of heavy metals) is reduced to 48%. Produced fertilizer- biohumus is a popular product of wastewater sludge utilization.
Key words: wastewater sludge, vermicomposting, technology, heavy metals, biohumus.

The article presents the analysis results of the multi-year progress of the maximum and minimum water flow rate of rivers in the Northern part of Kazakhstan. General temporary trends for the territory are not detected. Conclusions on inappropriate calculation period restriction for characterization of a current situation are made. It proves the inevitability of truncated distribution application in certain cases to assess maximum water flow rate and water level.
Key words: river water flow rate, annual flow, repeatability, frequency curve, low river.

Kim A. N., Grun N. A., Romanova Ju. V.Improvementof tap water sorption tertiary treatment. p. 4-20

For several reasons consumers in Saint-Petersburg often do not get tap water which meets the requirements of normative documents of the Russian Federation. This circumstance causes the necessity of the tertiary treatment of tap water while birch activated carbons and activated carbons from coconut husk are widely used in the tertiary treatment. Currently one of the trends in sorption technique is modification of sorption materials including activated carbon which allows increasing their sorption capacity and giving them new properties. As such modifier fullerenes, recently discovered molecular compounds belonging to the class of allotropic forms of carbon, are used. The article presents the method of activated carbon modification by fullerenes; results of comparative laboratory bench tests of modified and original activated carbon of various brands (birch and coconut) during tertiary treatment in the real mode of tap water polluted as a result of transportation on local pipelines which are in poor technical condition are presented; the method of regeneration of spent activated carbons using sodium hypochlorite is explained. Also during the work a number of different bacteriological studies are carried out. It is presented that activated carbon modified by fullerenes has antibacterial properties, which is an important characteristic of this material, due to the fact that the original activated carbon is a rich nutrient environment for microorganisms, which, in its turn, leads to secondary pollution of the treated water and prevents long-term use of such carbons in the tertiary treatment.
Key words: activated carbon, modification by fullerenes, filtration plant, iron concentration, oxidation, colority, regeneration of coal.

It is presented that assessment of electric capacity dynamics, conductivity as well as resonance characteristic of water and aqueous solutions in the frequency range from 1 to 3000 kHz can be used for characteristics of physical properties and structures of drinking, mineral waters and other liquids at diverse effects.
With the use of dielectrometry, resonance methods and impedance, changes can be regarded both as the mobility of the dipoles and as dynamics of structure changes which contain these dipoles – clusters, hydrate formation of ions and, possibly, dynamics of interaction between clusters and hydrate formations.
Key words: water structure, the structure of aqueous solutions, electric capacity, conduction, hydration of ions.

Danilovich D.A.Results of the work of the Russian biggest nutrients removal block at Lyubertsy treatment plant designed using modern technologies—р.33 - 51

Development, adjustment and operating experience of nutrients removal block at Lyubertsy treatment plant (JSC “Mosvodokanal”) which daily intakes about 2 mil/m3 of waste waters are described in details. As a background of this block development, the 2-nd block at Novo-Lyubertsy treatment plant working on a two-stage technology of nitrification-denitrification which was built previously (in 1997) is described. The block of nutrients removal was designed in 1997-1998; its capacity is 500 thousand m3/day; it was started in 2006; it is operated by UCT technology. The detailed description of the block aeration tanks design is given; information on used equipment is presented. The important technological feature of the nutrients removal block is the absence of personal primary settlers since the block is discharging for all biological treatment plants. The start of the block was preceded by a number of technologies adoptions of nitrogen and phosphorus removal received by specialists of Moscvodokanal from 1999 to 2005. The brief description of objects of total capacity of 470 thousand m3/day completed in that period is presented. The detailed results of the nutrients removal block work in 2009-2013 are presented. During that period block provided implementation of project targets. On average for 5 years the effect of total nitrogen removal has made 75%, total phosphorus (by reagent-free technology) - 78%. The reasons of the adverse phosphorus removal in certain periods are analyzed; methods of increasing the depth of phosphorus removal to 0.2 mg/L. (by phosphorus phosphate) are described. The special attention is paid to insufficiently satisfactory work experience of the Austrian aeration system (blowers and aeration systems). Currently the work of these block systems is provided by Russian equipment. Recommendations on use of nitrogen and phosphorus biological removal technology in municipal waste waters are presented.
Key words: waste water treatment, removal of nitrogen and phosphorus, aeration system, Moscvodokanal, Lyubertsy treatment plant.

I.I. IvanenkoAssessment of nitrogen and phosphorus removal from sludge treatment unit with deep biological nutrient removal at the WWTP of the city of Pushkin. p. 51-62

The article presents the laboratory studies data and conducted experimental monitoring on studying drain water quality and sludge dewatering shop centrate at the city of Pushkin domestic wastewaters treatment plant with introduced scheme of deep nutrient removal. The study resulted in obtaining data on nitrogen and phosphorus amount in return flows from the sludge treatment unit and shop of dewatering of mixture of raw sludge and surplus activated sludge. The results of the experiments concluded that when using traditional gravity method of raw sludge and surplus activated sludge compaction it is better to remove surplus activated sludge from the end of aerobic zone of aerotank biological unit system where it has the greatest amount of dissolved and bound (in the form of nitrates) oxygen for inhibition of biological phosphorus removal in the tank of secondary settling basin. Separate compaction of activated sludge and raw sludge reduces the weight of phosphorus in the water almost in two times. Also separate compaction allows decreasing the average humidity of the mixture up to 96 % in comparison with 96,5 – 97 % at joint compaction and dramatically reducing phosphorus removal from the sludge densifiers with 22-34 mg/l to 13-14 mg/L. Activated sludge compaction with the addition of flocculant does not bring significant results and can be used only in a particularly challenging environment. Data on amount of pollutions returned to the head of the treatment plant are obtained as a percentage of contaminant mass in the incoming waste waters by suspended solids, nutrients, organic contaminants which can be used for new treatment plants project development and reconstruction of existing ones and in any forward-looking balance calculations.
Key words: WWTP, nitrogen, phosphorus, return waters, sludge densifiers, drain water, compaction scheme, centrate, contamination return.

Vardanjan M.A.The treatment of oil containing waters in the bulk filter on the layer of expanded perlite p.40-48

The typical features of oil containing water flows are composition impermanence and concentration of polluting oil products as well as presence of solid clay suspended substances in water on which oil products selectively sorb. Traditionally treatment from oil products is a technology with consistent use of different physico-chemical processes which final process is a two-stage filtration through granular materials. However, efficient and rational methods of filter beds regeneration are not developed and, particularly, such beds as heat-treated antrafilt and activated carbon. Used material is unloaded with difficulty that causes extra problems with its hand unloading.
To find an acceptable substitution of heat-treated antrafilt and activated carbon powder, fibrous and granular materials able to remove oil products from wastewaters were investigated.
The article presents the results of author’s long-termed researches on study of expanded perlite potential for use in the pressure bulk filter in the process of oil containing wastewaters treatment. The laboratory studies on filter-sorbing properties of expanded perlite with a view to deep fine treatment of oil containing waters are carried out. The effect of fractional composition of expanded perlite, concentrations and oil products phase state in water, temperature, hydrodynamic conditions as well as sorbent contact time with feedwater on the degree of extraction of oil products is identified. The application field of different fractions of this material are defined: for a rough mechanical treatment up to concentration of 2 mg/l – mixture of coarse fraction of 5-15 mm when for a fine sorption treatment up to 0,3 mg/l – mixture of fine fraction of 2-5 mm. In the dynamic conditions the oil capacity of expanded perlite fraction mixture of 2-5 and 5-15 mm is defined. It respectively makes 0,40 и 0,39g/g while some part of oil products has been absorbed by the material irreversibly. On the base of the investigations the source data of oil containing wastewaters treatment technologies development where the layer of expanded perlite of relevant fraction will be used as a bed for industrial filters of coarse and fine treatment is defined.
Key words: oil containing waters, pressure bulk filter, expanded perlite, dynamic oil capacity, residual concentration.

The article presents methods of the statistical-stochastic modeling of technical state of concrete collectors with diameters of DN 600/1100-900/1350 mm located in the basin of the Hachinger Bach river, Germany. The investigated collectors serve for domestic waste waters disposal from the territory of the Bavarian municipality Unterhaching. The critical technical state is defined by the theoretical boundary between the area of appropriate sewerage collectors which require conservation and the area of collectors which require renovation. The identification of this boundary allows defining the scale of required renovation that is an essential aspect of rational use of each sewerage infrastructure. The statistical stage of the researches is based on the Weibull distribution while the final form of the critical curve is defined on the base of the mathematical modeling by the Monte-Carlo method.
Key words: sewerage network, concrete collectors, technical state, statistical-stochastic forecasting.

Ecology

A.A. Fejzullaev, Ch.S. Alyev, M. Bonyny, O. Vaselly, R.Dzh. Bagyrly, F.F.MahmudovaThe ecological assessment of radon concentration in thermal waters of the Talysh in Azerbaijan p.69-80

The article presents the results of the first estimated assessments of the radon level in thermal waters of the Talysh region. The investigation of the 9 natural water outputs in the 7 thermal sources allowed determining of radon values changes in the very wide ranges – from 3,73 up to 93,3 Bq/L. which are typical to groundwater. They are defined as slightly radon. The dependence of radon content on gas composition/ gas saturation of water is noted: relatively low content of radon is typical for nitric water, the highest – for acidulous water, intermediate value – for methane water. The rated depth of aquifer does not exceed 2,4 km. According to sanitary-hygienic standards radon content of thermal water of the Talysh, except the watersource Buludul in the Yardymli District, is not dangerous to human health when taking bath and using as a drinking water. In the water of the Buludul radon content exceeds the maximum allowable concentration in more than 1,5 times adopted for a drinking water.
Key words: radon, thermal waters, concentration, danger, human health, Talysh.
