DESCRIPTION OF THE OPERATION OF THE SBR DOMESTIC SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT

PHASE I – SEWAGE INLET
The treatment plant's operating cycle can be divided into four phases. The first chamber serves as a primary settling tank and buffer tank, where initial mechanical wastewater treatment occurs through sedimentation of easily settling suspended solids and equalization of loads caused by uneven sewage inflow. The active volume of the treatment plant's primary chamber influences the operation of the entire system. Heavy, coarse-grained fractions settle to the bottom of the chamber.
HASE II – AERATION IN 1 BIOLOGICAL REACTOR
Granular and floc-like suspensions, as well as floating substances, are separated from the wastewater. The pre-treated wastewater enters the first chamber of the biological reactor, which serves as both a reactor and a secondary settling tank. This chamber undergoes biological decomposition of organic pollutants and sedimentation of the suspended solids. Aeration provides oxygen for the activated sludge microorganisms, which effectively decompose the pollutants. The wastewater then enters the second chamber of the biological reactor, where final purification occurs.
PHASE III – OVERHEAD IN THE 2ND BIOLOGICAL REACTOR
The Bio DUO-Hybryda treatment plant utilizes two independent biological zones. In each zone, low-load activated sludge—aerobic bacteria aggregated into activated sludge flocs that create an active suspension in the reactor and are involved in the treatment process—is supported by a submerged fluidized bed bioreactor constructed from specially designed PE profiles, where microorganisms involved in aerobic wastewater treatment thrive. At the bottom of both bioreactors are tubular membrane diffusers, into which air is pumped by a blower. The diffuser system and the amount of air supplied ensure optimal mixing and oxygenation of the wastewater and the biofilm, generating uniform process conditions within the reactors.
PHASE IV – CLEAN WATER OUTFLOW
Thanks to the use of dual hybrid technology – low-load activated sludge + self-cleaning fluidized bed bioreactors in two independent bioreactors – the Bio DUO-Hybryda treatment plant achieves a very high degree of pollutant reduction. The treated wastewater then passes to the secondary clarification tank (clarification chamber), where the final clarification of the treated wastewater occurs. The final stage of treatment involves discharge of the treated wastewater and recirculation of the activated sludge. The treated water is discharged outside the treatment plant to a receiving source, which may be:

a drainage or infiltration tunnel,

a soakaway well, a sealed holding tank,

a pond or watercourse within the treatment plant's location.
PHASE V – SLUDGE RECIRCULATION
After the purified water is discharged, the excess sludge recirculation system collects sludge from the bottom of the secondary settling tank and transports it to the primary settling tank. Thanks to this system, periodic sludge removal is required only in the first chamber of the treatment plant.

HOLIDAY MODE
In the event of a low sewage level in the primary settling tank (below 100 cm) caused by a lack of new sewage flowing into the treatment plant, the controller automatically switches to energy-saving mode. The treatment program continues to run. The aeration phase is shortened, reducing the amount of energy required. Depending on the load at the inlet to the primary chamber, the program fully automatically decides whether the energy-saving cycle can be continued or normal operation should be restored.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT EQUIPMENT
A complete treatment plant consists of multi-chamber biological reactors forming a system of one to several tanks, depending on the load/number of people.

Furthermore, the distance of the clarifier, which comprises the domestic wastewater treatment plant (for single-family, farm, and individual recreational buildings) from the property boundary and public road should be a minimum of 2 m. From windows and external doors to rooms intended for permanent human occupancy, the distance should be no less than 5 m (in direct proximity to single-family buildings). The location distance of filtration ditches and drainage fields should be 30 m from wells, 2 m from the neighboring property boundary, road (street) or pedestrian walkway. A domestic treatment plant can be built in direct proximity to single-family buildings, provided its ventilation is routed through the sewage system at least 0.6 m above the upper edge of windows and external doors in these buildings.

An important criterion determining the location of a domestic wastewater treatment plant is the distance from water intakes. The treatment plant tank should not be installed at a distance less than 15 m from the nearest well. The distance of the infiltration drainage from water intakes should be at least 30 m, and the groundwater level must be at a depth of 1.5 m below the treated water discharge system. Maintaining such distances is conditioned by the possibility of pathogenic microorganisms penetrating water intakes. Importantly, the above distances apply to all water wells intended for human consumption – both on the property where the domestic wastewater treatment plant is to be located and on neighboring properties.

An important condition for using infiltration drainage is having soil with appropriate permeability and groundwater occurrence at least 1.5 m below the planned position of the wastewater infiltration drainage. Otherwise, it may be necessary to install a sewage pumping station and construct drainage in the form of an embankment.

Note! The treatment plant should be located in non-vehicular terrain with access for sewage trucks.

INSTALLATION OF THE HDPE SETTLER

General rules
Before starting the installation, check that the tank has not been damaged during transport. Any defects noticed should be reported to the manufacturer/retailer.
To maintain the good condition of the appliance and its operation, follow this instruction manual and its attachments. Incorrect installation may affect the improper operation of the treatment plant. The excavation and installation of the treatment plant should be carried out by a specialized contractor.
Never enter an unventilated tank – LIFE HAZARD!
Make sure that the ground around the treatment plant does not have factors that may have a negative impact during and after installation (guarantee a stable position, keep a safe distance from buildings).
Do not work in heavy rainfall (risk of trench collapse).
Soil subsidence must be taken into account in all assembly work.
After installing the tank and after each service inspection, check that the inspection hatches are closed and properly protected against opening.
We make a trench for a clarifier with dimensions in a floor plan 0.5 – 1.0 m larger than the dimensions of the settling tank. The minimum width of the backfill is 50 cm on each side of the tank.
We make sand ballast with a thickness of min. 30 cm and thicken to at least 85% (according to the Proctor scale).
We lower the tank into the trench, level and make the first layer of 30 cm of sand backfill in order to stabilize it and compact it to min. 85% according to the Proctor scale.
Check the position of the aeration diffusers. They should lie flat on the bottom of the tank.
After leveling and stabilizing the tank, we make backfilling in layers every 30 cm with its simultaneous compaction to the level of the drain spigot according to the proportions and degree of compaction as above. In each layer of filling, the clarifier should be filled with water to the level of backfilling. Particular attention must be paid to the thorough filling of all the cavities of the tank with material and the strong compaction of the layers, so that there are no voids in the backfill, which will guarantee the stability of the tank.
After making the backfill and compacting it, connect the inlet and drain ports, connecting it simultaneously with the distribution manhole.
We install the DN 650 extension, adjusting the height to the expected level of the ground (terrain) and finish the backfill with compaction. When installing the extension, it is imperative to seal the connection point with a special tank designed for this purpose with glue (e.g. Wurth glue + sealant) or another suitable sealant and then screw it with screws (e.g. Farmer type). The tank cover should not exceed 120 cm.
After the installation of the clarifier is completed, a leak test must be carried out.
After completing the above-mentioned works, we proceed to the installation of the drainage.
10. After the excavation is made, depending on the type of soil, we make a protective layer with simultaneous installation of drainage pipes and, if necessary, a supporting layer and covering it with geotextile.
After installing the device and putting it into operation, it is very important to check the correct arrangement of the diffusers located in the biological treatment zone. The biological reactor hatch must be opened and, if necessary, the diffuser should be lifted and laid flat on the bottom, which will ensure that the wastewater is aerated evenly.
Compliance with the manufacturer's guidelines will ensure the stability and functionality of the treatment plant tank and its proper behavior in the trench. Slight deformations of the tank result from the properties of the material used and do not affect the proper operation of the treatment plant. A deformation of the tank of not more than 5% is allowed.
