A MATHEMATICAL MODEL FOR ORGANIC MATTER REMOVAL IN CONSTRUCTED WETLANDS CASE STUDY: WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT OF QASR-E SHIRIN, IRAN

خلاصه انگلیسی

The ability of large aquatic plants (macrophytes) to assist the breakdown of human and animal derived wastewater, remove disease-causing microorganisms and pollutants has only recently been scientifically investigated. Since the mid- 1980s, reed bed systems, with the advantage of low energy consumption and operating cost, have been increasingly used in the treatment of wastewater. Although a large number of reed beds have been built and operated, pollutant dynamics in these systems are still scarcely comprehended. The lack of understanding on pollutant dynamics can lead to inaccurate design, giving poor pollutant removal efficiency and operation problem. As most reed beds are applied in sewage treatment, organic matter (BOD) removal is the primary target of system design, which requires the kinetics of BOD removal and the flow pattern of wastewater to be pre-determined. This paper reports a comparative study of four kinetic models that can be applied in the design of subsurface horizontal flow reed beds for wastewater treatment, in The Ghasre Shirin Subsurface Constructed wetlands Constructed wastewater treatment plant. The models were developed from different combinations of Monod kinetics, first-order kinetics, and continuous stirred-tank reactor and plug flow patterns. Using statistical parameters, were analysis of these models. For predicting organic matter removal, the combination of Monod kinetics with plug flow pattern gave the closest match between theoretical predictions and actual performances of 80 horizontal flow reed beds. In all models, except for the combination of Monod kinetics with plug Ali Almasi* et al. International Journal Of Pharmacy & Technology IJPT| June-2016 | Vol. 8 | Issue No.2 | 13155-13167 Page 13156 flow pattern, the coefficients of BOD removal were found to decrease slightly with BOD loading. The ratios of BOD/COD had no correlation with the coefficients, indicating that in the Subsurface flow reed beds the degradation of organic matter is insensitive to the nature of organics in the wastewater.
