Every stage in a wastewater treatment process is important to achieve the desired treatment results. However, primary treatment and tertiary are critical to the overall process. In the primary treatment process solids are reduced to a large extent. Without this step, subesequent treatment would be less effective. In tertiary treatment, harmful microbiological matter is rendered killed or inactive so that it will not cause sickness to those organisim that encounter it. <\/span><\/p>
These wastewater treatment methods, are coagulation and disinfection respectively. Each of these processes has multiple ways that they can be accomplished, either by chemical or non-chemical techniques. Each of these wastewater treatment methods has their own benefits and disadvantages.<\/span><\/p>
Coagulation<\/b><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>
Wastewater influents contain varying levels of total dissolved solids (TDS) and total suspended solids (TSS). Course screening and grit chambers will reduce the TSS but must be followed by a more refined solids removal process. Sedimentation and filtration are methods that have been used in the past, but these methods cannot remove many of the smallest particles. <\/span><\/p>
Coagulation has become a popular method of reducing both the TSS and in some cases TDS of wastewater. This process involves destabilizing the charged particles in the solution. Because of their similar electrical charges, the particles repel one another and prevent them from settling quickly. To destabilize this electrical charge, an opposite charge must be applied to the solution, enabling the colloids and other minerals to aggregate. <\/span><\/p>
There are currently two well-known methods of coagulation:<\/span><\/p>
