Non-Aerated Biodestruction Of Biochemical Oxygen Demand

US Patent:
2012004, Mar 1, 2012
Filed:
Sep 1, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/807298
Inventors:
Jess C. Brown - Sarasota FL, US
Rick D. Wheadon - Alpine UT, US
International Classification:
C02F 3/12
US Classification:
210610
Abstract:
The present invention may use exogenous oxidants to supplement use of oxygen in the treatment of municipal wastewater. The new method may implement non-aerated biodestruction using an exogenous oxidant material combined with a primary treatment municipal wastewater to reduce wastewater treatment aeration requirements. The municipal wastewater influent for treatment in an activated sludge treatment process may be combined with an exogenous oxidant material in a non-aeration process to produce a blended stream. The blended stream may be treated in a bioreactor.

Biodestruction Of Blended Residual Oxidants

US Patent:
2007003, Feb 15, 2007
Filed:
Oct 11, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/546661
Inventors:
Jess Brown - Sarasota FL, US
Brandon Heidelberger - Sandy UT, US
Rick Wheadon - Alpine UT, US
Edwin Hansen - Magna UT, US
International Classification:
C02F 3/02
US Classification:
210620000
Abstract:
The present invention may be used for treatment of waste streams using domestic wastewater. A concentrate waste stream containing one or more of perchlorate, nitrate, bromate, selenate and chromate may be combined with a domestic wastewater stream. The concentrate waste stream may have not less than 3000 mg/l of total dissolved solids. The concentrate waste stream and domestic wastewater stream may be combined at a ratio of between 20% volumetric flow rate and 75% volumetric flow rate to produce a blended stream. The blended stream may be processed in a bioreactor.

Biodestruction Of Blended Residual Oxidants

US Patent:
2006019, Sep 7, 2006
Filed:
Sep 28, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/239797
Inventors:
Jess Brown - Sarasota FL, US
Brandon Heidelberger - Sandy UT, US
Rick Wheadon - Alpine UT, US
Edwin Hansen - Magna UT, US
International Classification:
C02F 3/02
US Classification:
210620000
Abstract:
The oxidant waste stream treatment may provide for treatment of oxidant laden waste streams. A screened or clarified wastewater stream may be combined with an oxidant stream to produce a blended stream. The blended stream may be processed in a bioreactor.
