Tiivistelmä
The aims of this project were taking the laboratory-scale wastewater treatment plant into use, make test runs by changing several factors and analyze the wastewater quality focusing on nutrient removal.
Experiments were carried out in the laboratories of TAMK, concretely in the environmental and process laboratories, during 4 months.
The information and results obtained can be used for laboratory courses for future students and new projects related to water treatment.
At the plant, biological, chemical and mechanical processes are carried out. The system consists of different modules in which there are processes of denitrification and nitrification, aeration and clarification.
The results show that phosphorus removal of the system is done properly, while regard-ing to nitrogen removal seems to be confused because of the different forms in which nitrogen appears in the process.
Finally, the testing project should be continued. Further experiments may be performed by changing various factors, analyzing different parameters and using others methods of analysis.
