biosolids as fertilizer can be considered a use of sludge consistent with industrial ecology.
Recycling wastewater into the treatment plant, manufacturing or other process is another
example.
Industrial Wastewater Treatment

with differing chemical doses, mix speeds, and settling times to estimate the minimum or
ideal coagulant dose required to achieve certain water quality goals.
Liquid Solids Separation
The process of separating the liquids and solids in a given wastewater. Liquid/solids
separation comes in one of 3 processes:
1. If the solids sink (specific gravity greater than 1) use a clarifier
2. If the solids float (specific gravity less than 1) use a floatation unit (DAF)
3. If neither sink or float (specific gravity is 1) try using a screen (rotary or parabolic)

Skimming
using a machine to remove oil or scum from the surface of the water.
Sludge
The solid waste material which settles out in the wastewater treatment process, sometimes
biosolids. Can be dewatered and reused or disposed.

Sludge digester
tank in which complex organic substances like sewage sludge are biologically dredged.
Energy is released and much of the sewage is converted to methane, carbon dioxide, and
water.
Sludge Dewatering
Removing the remaining water from sludge for reuse and to lighten the sludge for reuse or
disposal.
Solubility
the amount of mass of a compound that will dissolve in a unit volume of solution.
Solute
any substance derived from the atmosphere, vegetation, soil, or rock that is dissolved in
water.
Soft water
any water that does not contain a significant amount of dissolved minerals such as salts of
calcium or magnesium.

Storm Water Run-Off (SRO)


The pulse of surface water following a rainstorm. The water carries sediment, gas, oil, animal
feces, glass and other waste from the watershed to receiving waters creating a difficult
urban/suburban wastewater problem.
Storm Drain
A pipeline or channel system that carries surface water and/or runoff to public waters, but
does not feed into sewer system.
Subsurface Flow Wetland (SF)
A type of constructed wetland in which primarily treated waste flows through deep gravel or
other porous substrate planted with wetland vegetation. The water is not exposed to the air,
avoiding problems with odor and direct contact.
Suspended solids
the small solid particles in water that cause turbidity. Particles of suspended sediment tend
to settle at the channel bottom, but upward currents in turbulent flow counteract gravitational
settling.
TDS - Total Dissolved Solids
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) is a the combined total of all dissolved solids in wastewater,
both organic and inorganic and very fine, such as colloidal minerals. Generally particles must
be smaller than two micrometers to be considered a dissolved solid. For example, salt
dissolved in water is a dissolved solid. Therefore TDS will "survive" screening or other
coarse filtration.
Tertiary Wastewater Treatment (Advanced)
Biological or chemical polishing of wastewater to remove organics, solids and nutrients.
Tertiary wastewater effluent limits are generally 10 mg/1 BOD5 and 10 mg/1 TSS.

Tertiary Treatment
The use of filtration to remove microscopic particles from wastewater that has already been
treated to a Secondary Level. Anthracite coal is the filter medium used by the MWWD.
Toxic pollutant
those pollutants or combinations of pollutants, including disease-causing agents, which after
discharge and upon exposure, ingestion, inhalation or assimilation into any organism can, on
the basis of information available, cause death, disease, behavioral abnormalities, cancer,
genetic mutations, physiological malfunctions or physical deformation in such organism or
their offspring. The quantities and exposures necessary to cause these effects can vary
widely.
Treatability
How treatable a water sample is with a given substance. The "treatability" of Floccin is
very high with a wide array of wastewater types. The more treatable wastewater is, the
better, obviously. All wastewater is treatable, how easy it is varies. The treatability can be
tested using samples in a "jar test". A small water sample is taken and placed in a jar. Then
the flocculant or other treatment additive mixed in and the results observed. Treatability tests
are an important part of wastewater optimization.
Total Coliforms
include bacteria that are found in the soil, in water that has been influenced by surface water,
and in human or animal waste.
TSS - Total Suspended Solids
As the name implies, the total solid particles that are suspended (as opposed to dissolved) in
the wastewater. TSS must be filtered out, flocculated, digested and so on for removal in the
treatment of wastewater. Though not necessarily pollutants TSS is considered to be a
measure of pollutants in water by the EPA in the US.
Turbid
thick or opaque with matter in suspension. Rivers and lakes may become turbid after a
rainfall.
Turbidity
A measure of how clear water is in ntu, invisible to the average naked eye until readings in
excess of 100 are reached, typically determined by shining light through a sample placed in
a turbidimeter.
Ultraviolet Disinfection (UV) / UV Sterilizer
The use of ultraviolet light to kills bacteria and other microorganisms in water and
wastewater. Typically a final treatment step.
Wastewater
Wastewater is "used" water, the water leftover after its use in numerous application such as
industrial, agricultural, municipal, domestic and on

4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SANITARY WASTE WATER TREATMENT


4.1. Sanitary waste water treatment system
The sanitary waste water treatment plant is fed by domestic sewage from a sewer shaft by
gravity, before discharge to river Nile.
The sewer shaft located 300 m to the sewage treatment plant is fed by:
- sanitary wastewater originating from supporting facilities
- sanitary facilities of the administration and service collected in a primary sewage tank,
- filter backwash waste originating from the drinking water purification plant
- domestic sewage tank 00SEO001BA
The raw water is stored in the sewage tank (92SEO002BA).
The mechanized bar screen (92SEO001DG) located at the inlet of sewage tank remove bigger
solids from wastewater to prevent clogging of followed systems. The solids removed are
discharged into waste tank (92SEO007BA)
The effluents are mixed by the mechanical mixer (92SEO001ZE) located in the bottom of the
sewage tank. Two submergible pumps (92SEO003PO & 92SEO004PO) (one duty one standby)
pump the wastewater into the primary settling tank (92SEO003BA).
The clarified wastewater flow out by gravity of primary settling tank to the fixed bed bioreactor
(92SEO004BA). After biological treatment, the secondary settling tank (92SEO005BA) received
the effluent by gravity.
The clarified water of the secondary settling tank is directed by gravity across the UV
disinfection treatment (U.V sterilizer 92SEO001SR) to the discharge tank (92SEO008BA). The
flow rate of treated effluent is measured and totalized by a flowmeter (92SEO 001 MD).
According to a specific cycle, the sludge of the both settling tank are extracted to the sludge
stabilization tank (92SEO006BA) by two pneumatic pumps (92SEO005PO & 92SEO006PO)
(one duty one standby) which are supplied by the compressor named 92SEO001CO.
When the sludge stabilization tank is full of, an operator can launch the transfer of stabilized
sludge and empty the tank into a tank truck.

MANUAL MODE

The operator has to avoid the manual mode. It is not the normal working.
It is used to drain off the sewage tank with the aim to realize a maintenance operation.
(Mechanical mixer, mechanized bar screen, pump).
Most of conditions are still operational (just see below), they have right on the manual running
mode of the pumps, because the operator must not saturates the sludge stabilization or one of
the settling tanks.
Be careful: as possible the sewage pumping must not working as the mechanized bar screen is
not running and the mechanical mixer too.
The light selector switch of the pump selected by the operator is on MANUAL position.
The select pump is working as long as the security level 92SEO004SN is recovered, so the red
selector switch light is lightning.

AUTOMATICAL MODE

In the normal working, the selector switches of the 92SEO003PO & 92SEO004PO transfer
pumps are placed in AUTO position.
Those pumps are working one duty one standby. An automatic permutation of functioning of
pumps is made in accordance with a working time (" 1/3-2/3 " of total time).
The main pump as it is called will work 4h (that is to say 2/3 of total time defined at 6h
At the end of 4h, automatic permutation on the secondary pump which will work 2h (that is
to say 1/3 of time) and so one, and so forth.
When the both selector switches of the sewage transfer pumps are positioned on 0 , the
followed principle is initialized: none of selected pump as main pump and the time counters
1/3-2/3 are resetted.
As soon as a sewage transfer pump's selector switch is positioned on AUTO , the
associated pump becomes the main pump.
There is an automatic permutation to the secondary pump on the main pump unavailability.
The sewage transfer pumping is enabled as soon as the high level 92SEO006SN is recovered.
The main pump starts if there are no faults. The sewage pumping is disabled as soon as the
low level 92SEO005SN is discovered.
If the high emergency level 92SEO007SN is reached, a fault is set and displayed on the
display unit. So the secondary pump starts until the high level 92SEO006SN is discovered.
The low emergency level 92SEO004SN is a hardware security.
When the low emergency level 92SEO004SN is discovered, a fault is set and displayed on the
display unit. Sewage transfer pumping is stopped. When the low emergency level
92SEO004SN is once again recovered, the operator has to used the acknowledge fault push
button to reset this fault.
Mechanical mixer has to work for 300s before to start sewage pumping.
Like that, there will be no more sludge accumulation in the bottom of the tank and sewage
transfer pumps will be safety to work.
Each sewage transfer pump is stopped with:
- Its selector switch not in AUTO position,
- Fault #1 & #4 cabinet control emergency stop,
- Its tripped fault sewage pump #,
- Its thermometer probe motor fault sewage pump #,

RESCUE MODE

Sludge stabilization air oxygenation production


If the air blower #2 is not running (Tripped fault or selector switch OFF), alarms (#51 & 54)
are set just to inform the operator that the sludge stabilization tank is working without air
oxygenation.
The sewage transfer pumping is still running.
Air oxygenation must be delivered in priority to the biological reactor. There is no rescue
mode to produce air oxygenation for the sludge stabilization tank.
Everything must be realized to come back in the normal working.
Biological air oxygenation production
If the air blower #1 is not running (Tripped fault or selector switch OFF), alarms (#50 & 52)
are set. The sewage transfer pumping is stopped.
The message #52 air blower #1 not running. So sewage pumping stopped is displayed
A rescue mode is available.
The operator has to manoeuvre manual valves to dedicate the air blower #2 to the bioreactor.
First he must open the manual valve 055VE and then close the manual valve 053VE. The last
one is equipped with a closed limit switch named 92SEO001FC.
As soon as this limit switch is switched on (It means the valve is completely closed), the alarm
#55 manual valve 053VE closed is set, a message is displayed on the unit display and the
air blower #1 92SEO001ZV is stopped.
In anyway to restart the air blower #1, the manual valve 053VE must not be close and the
alarm must be reset.
Then he has to place the selector switch 92SEO006CL into the rescue mode.
The blue light of the push button is blinking because the air blower #1 is not running and the
selector switch is on the rescue mode.
The operator validates this mode by the blue light push button. So the message #53 is
displayed on the display unit and the blue light of the push button is lightning.
The sewage pumping is working once more.
An emergency stop or a PLC restart doesnt reset the rescue mode.
Another way to do it: to place out the selector switch 92SEO006CL from the rescue
position.

5.4. Secondary settling tank (92SEO005BA)


After biological treatment, the secondary settling tank (92SEO005BA) received the effluent by
gravity. Here the treated effluent is going to be clarified. Then the clarified water of the
secondary settling tank is directed by gravity across the UV disinfection treatment (U.V
sterilizer (92SEO001SR) to the discharge tank (92SEO008BA)
A low level 92SEO009SN equips the secondary settling tank.
It is used to the sludge extraction cycle. (See the sludge storage & stabilization paragraph)
Alarm (#60) is set with special conditions to inform the operator the secondary settling tank is
abnormally emptying.

5.5. Final disinfection of treated effluents


The UV sterilizer (92SEO001SR) cubicle is equipped with:
Two on/off selector switches,
Two time counters
The power supply is coming from the cabinet control. The alarm #70 is activated on a power
supply fault.
The alarm #71 is displayed on the display unit when the UV lamps might be changed.
The sewage pumping is still working even these faults are presents.

5.6. Sludge storage and stabilization (92SEO006BA)


5.6.1. Principle
The sludge stabilization tank is equipped with a combined system of diffused air oxygenation
and 16 diffusers. (Air blowers explanation: see biological treatment paragraph)
Sludge pumping is shared by the two settling tanks.
The both settling tanks sludge extraction is realized with two pneumatics pumps 92SEO005PO
& 92SEO006PO. They are working in duty and standby.
Sludge extraction is not possible simultaneously on the both settling tanks.
The selection of the settling tank sludge extraction is realized with two pneumatics valves
92SEO058VE & 92SEO059VE. Below cycle explanation:
Pneumatics valves and pumps are supplied through the air compressor 92SEO001CO.
The rated power of the air blower's motor is 2.2 kW on 400VAC.
A pressure switch 92SEO002SP detects a low pressure. An alarm (#82) is set immediately and
the sludge extraction is stopped. Several hours later, if the low pressure is still present, the
alarm #83 is set and the sewage transfer pumping is stopped.
The both pumps 92SEO005PO & 92SEO006PO and the both pneumatics valves
92SEO058VE & 92SEO059VE are stopped on the faults
- Fault #1 & #4 cabinet control emergency stop,
- Fault #6 & #7 Load shedding mode and power supply off,
- Fault #82 low air pressure 92SEO002SP
- Fault #83 24h air pressure down 92SEO002SP
- Fault #84 Tripped compressor.

General description of the operating interfacing


The first pump selector switch (92SEO005PO & 92SEO006PO) to be placed on the AUTO
position gives the priority to its pump and it is becomes the main one.
It is possible to verify the main pump selected with the page F7-1 of the unit display.
The only way to invalidate the main pump selected is to place the both pump selector switches
on their 0 position.
There are no automatic pump permutations. It is only the operator who can choose the
working pump by the way of proceed just above.
As soon as the main pump is selected, the indicator light of the cycle selected by the sludge
mode selection selector switch is blinking. But the mode conditions must be presents. (See
next paragraph)

5.6.3. AUTO MODE (selector switch 1st position)


The auto cycle extraction mode is used to extract automatically the primary and the
secondary settling tanks sludge. Extracted sludge is directed into the sludge stabilization tank.
The operator places the sludge mode selection selector switch on the AUTO CYCLE
EXTRACTION position (#1). Auto cycle extraction mode is not yet validated. The green
indicator light AUTO CURRENT SLUDGE MODE named 92SEO001LA is off.
He must place one of the sludge pump selector switch on the AUTO position (92SEO007CL
or 92SEO008CL).

The both settling tanks sludge extraction is realize with two pneumatics pumps 92SEO005PO
& 92SEO006PO. They are working in duty and standby but there is no automatic permutation
between those sludge pumps; the operator will have to change the switch pump selector to
permute the functioning pump.
Now to validate the auto extraction cycle mode, the operator uses the blue push button
SLUGE MODE VALIDATION.
The green indicator light AUTO CURRENT SLUDGE MODE is lightning.

The cycle is initialised to begin at 8.00 am. The operating cycle of the sludge extraction is 24
hours.
Available in the display unit the AUTO SLUDGE EXTRACTION CYCLE TIMER preset
and current values.
The preset value is 1440mn and not modifiable. The current value increases and can be
modified by the operator if he wants to change the beginning point of the auto sludge
extraction cycle.
A timer dedicates to the primary settling tank sludge extraction is available in the display unit.
Normally, it is unnecessarily to modify this value each cycle. It is defined at the beginning of
the installation, but the operator can adjust it according to the proceed.
The auto sludge extraction cycle begin with the primary settling tank.
The pneumatic valve 92SEO059VE is opening, and few seconds later the sludge pump
selected is working as long as the SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACTION TIMERS is
running. The red selector switch light of the selected pump is lightning. (92SEO007CL or
92SEO008CL)
When the primary SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACTION TIMERS is ended, the
primary settling tank auto extraction is stopped, a counter is increased (PRIMARY
SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACT.REALIZED), and it goes on to the secondary
settling tank.
The pneumatic valve 92SEO059VE is closing, and the pneumatic valve 92SEO058VE is
opening. During this operation, the sludge pumps are stopped. The sludge pumping restart
after few seconds the pneumatic valve 92SEO058VE is opening.
When the secondary SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACTION TIMERS is ended, the
secondary settling tank auto extraction is stopped, a counter is increased (SECONDARY
SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACT.REALIZED), and the cycle is finished until the end
of the 24 hours running.
The pneumatic valves 92SEO058VE & 92SEO059VE are closed, and the sludge pumps are
stopped.
If the auto sludge extraction cycle on the both settling tanks is not finished at the end of the 24
hours, the last cycle and timers SETTLING TANKS SLUDGE EXTRACTION are
resetted, and a new cycle begin.
Notes:
With an emergency stop or a cabinet control power shutdown, the current values of timers and
counters just on top are not resetted.
During the sludge pumps are working, the operator may change the preset timer values from
the display unit. The system reacts immediately to this modification.
The both settling tanks are equipped with low level sensors named 92SEO008SN &
92SEO009SN. When they are discovered, the alarms #40 or #60 are set and displayed on the
display unit.
The alarm #40 stopped the primary settling tank sludge extraction, and the cycle goes on to the
other one.
The alarm #60 stopped the secondary settling tank sludge extraction. A new cycle will begin
when the 24 hours will be down.

He places one of the sludge pump selector switch on the MANUAL position (92SEO007CL
or 92SEO008CL). Then the yellow indicator light SLUDGE TANK CURRENT SLUDGE
MODE is blinking if the sludge mode conditions are presents. At this moment sludge pump is
still stopped.
At this step of the way to proceed, the operator must have connected all the pipes to the truck
and manoeuvred the right manual valves.
Now to validate the sludge mode, the operator uses the blue push button SLUGE MODE
VALIDATION.
The yellow indicator light SLUDGE TANK CURRENT SLUDGE MODE is lightning,
the pneumatic valves 92SEO058VE and 92SEO059VE dedicated to the settling tanks are
closing and then the sludge pump selected starts. The red selector switch light of the selected
pump is lightning. (92SEO007CL or 92SEO008CL)
Before to launch the sludge mode, the operator has to preset a working timer available in
the display unit. The sludge pump is functioning as long as this timer is running. When this
timer is ended, the sludge mode is deactivated. Sludge stabilization tank pumping is stopped
and the yellow indicator light is blinking once more.
Depending on whether truck volume is full or not, the operator can choose to activate once
more the sludge mode, just with the push button SLUGE MODE VALIDATION.
The operator can adjust before a new timer preset value.
During the sludge pumps are working, the operator may change the preset timer value from

1.3. Use of the waste water plant


This waste water plant will be used to treat the following waste waters:
- sanitary wastewaters from supporting facilities
- sanitary facilities of the administration and service collected in a primary sewage tank,
- filter backwash waste from drinking water purification plant,
- domestic sewage tank 00SEO001BA.
Note :
It is strictly forbidden to direct any other type of water to this plant, in particular, waters containing
chemicals or disinfectants must never be thrown to the plant since the treatment is a biological process
and chemical compounds will kill, partly or totally, the bacteria population needed and thus the
treatment goals will not be met.
The plant has been designed for 400 people, as follows:

2.3. Treatment principle


2.3.1. Waste water flow stream
The raw water is stored in the sewage tank (92SEO 002BA).
The mechanized bar screen (92SEO 001DG) located at the inlet of sewage tank removes bigger
solids from wastewater to prevent clogging of systems downstream. The solids removed are
discharged into waste tank (92SEO 007BA)
The effluents are mixed by the mechanical mixer (92SEO 001ZE) located in the bottom of the
sewage tank. Two submergible pumps (92SEO 003PO & 92SEO 004PO) (one duty one stand
by) pump the wastewater into the primary settling tank (92SEO 003BA).
The clarified wastewater flows out by gravity of primary settling tank to the fixed bed
bioreactor (92SEO 004BA). After biological treatment, the secondary settling tank (92SEO
005BA) receives the effluent by gravity.
The clarified water of the secondary settling tank is directed by gravity across the UV
disinfection treatment (U.V sterilizer 92SEO 001SR) to the discharge tank (92SEO 008BA). The
flow rate of treated effluent is measured and totalized by a flowmeter (92SEO 001MD).
According to a specific cycle, the sludge of both settling tanks is extracted to the sludge
stabilization tank (92SEO 006BA) by two pneumatic pumps (92SEO 005PO & 92SEO 006PO)
(one duty one stand by) which are supplied by the compressor named 92SEO 001CO.
When the sludge stabilization tank is full, an operator can launch the transfer of stabilized
sludge and empty the tank into a tank truck.
The main components of the sanitary waste water treatment are:
- Sewage storage (Tank, submergible pumps, mechanical mixer)
- Primary settling tank (Tank, sensor)
- Biological treatment (Tank, diffusers)
- Secondary settling tank (Tank, sensor)
- Final disinfection of treated effluents (Flow meter, U.V Sterilizer)
- Sludge storage and stabilization (Tank, diffusers, sensor, valves, pneumatic pumps)

2.3.2. Treatment process


Primary settling
The influents are those coming from the sewage storage tank. Coarse solids have been
removed previously by the mechanized bar screen 92SEO 001DG in the sewage storage tank.
In the primary settling tank 92SEO 003BA, more solid particles are removed in a static mode.
Heavy solids will settle down in the bottom part of the settling tank and the overflowing
waters, which may still contain some fine particles, are transferred by gravity to the fixed bed
bioreactor.
The settled matters in the bottom of the tank are periodically extracted and transferred to the
stabilization tank.

Biological treatment
The biological treatment in the fixed bed bioreactor 92SEO 004BA is the main treatment in
the waste water plant. The process consists of decomposing soluble organic compounds in the
waster water into carbon dioxide, nitrogen compounds and water.
This decomposition is principally done by a bacteria population in aerobic conditions.
The bacteria will use the organic matters for their development. They fix themselves as a
biofilm on the media modules of the fixed bed bioreactor. When the fixed bed bioreactor is
being continuously fed with wastewater which provides food, the development of the bacteria
population can be seen on the supports as the thickness of biofilm increases. They use the
organic compounds and the decomposition energy for microbial growth.
When it reaches some millimetres, part of the biofilm will automatically leave the support due
to the microscopic formation of gas in the most inner side of the slime. The vacant site is now
available for a new bacteria population. Thus, the biofilm thickness is not uniform in the
bioreactor, as some bacteria populations are younger than others.
In addition to food, the microorganisms need oxygen for their development. Oxygen is
supplied by means of an air blower 92SEO 001ZV and a network of diffusers in the bottom of
the fixed bed bioreactor. Air and thus oxygen is diffused as fine bubbles in the interstitial
water trough the media modules.
The supply of atmospheric oxygen is an important parameter in this process. In case of air
blower 92SEO 001ZV breakdown, the air network has been constructed so that, the one
normally dedicated to the stabilization tank, air blower 92SEO 002ZV, can be used for rescue.
Secondary settling
The secondary settling tank 92SEO 005BA receives by gravity, waters coming from the fixed
bed bioreactor 92SEO 004BA.
In the same way as the primary settling tank, suspended matters are removed in a static mode.
Heavy solids will settle down in the bottom part of the settling tank and the clear overflowing
waters are transferred by gravity to the U.V. sterilizer before discharge.
The settled matters in the bottom of the tank are periodically extracted and transferred to the
stabilization tank.
Final disinfection before discharge
Final disinfection is done by the UV sterilizer 92SEO 001SR. The sterilizer will kill germs in
the treated water before discharge to the Nile.
The flow rate and the total volume of water discharged are indicated by an electromagnetic
flow-meter 92SEO 001MD.
Samples may be taken by manual valves, before and after the UV sterilizer, to check its
efficiency. Treated water sample for analysis may be taken by the same valve after the UV
sterilizer. The treated water may be seen above the discharge tank 92SEO 008BA.

Sludge stabilization
This process is used for the decomposition of residual organic matters in the sludge.
The sludge stabilization tank 92SEO 006BA is fed in a discontinuous way with sludge
extracted from the bottom of the primary and secondary settling tanks.
The treatment is performed in aerobic conditions so that the micro organisms die by lack of
substrate; the remaining organic compounds are decomposed up to the mineral state. The
result of the treatment is the formation of carbon dioxide, nitrogen compounds as well as
"inert" solids which constitute stabilized sludge.
This is no overflowing water from this tank. As time passes on, the sludge level in the tank
rises up and when the level sensor 92SEO 010SN is recovered, an alarm is triggered, the
sludge has to be drained to a truck to be taken away.

4.1.3. Sewage transfer pumps (92SEO 003PO & 92SEO 004PO)


A couple of submergible pumps 92SEO003PO & 92SEO004PO equip the sewage tank
(92SEO002BA).
The rated power of the sewage transfer pump's motor is 3.2 KW on 400VAC.
An internal thermometer probe security detects high temperature. Faults are set and displayed.
Those transfer pumps (one duty one stand by) pump the wastewater into the primary settling
tank (92SEO003BA).
The following control buttons are placed on the door of the cabinet control:
- A three fixed positions red light selector switch AUTO-0-MANUAL named
92SEO003CL associated to the 92SEO003PO pump.
- A three fixed positions red light selector switch AUTO-0-MANUAL named
92SEO004CL associated to the 92SEO004PO pump.
For normal working, the switches must be on AUTO position.
The MANUAL position is for exceptional use, for tests or maintenance for example.
Normal automatic mode:
In the normal working, the selector switches of both 92SEO003PO & 92SEO004PO transfer
pumps are placed in AUTO position.
Those pumps are working one duty one stand by. An automatic permutation of functioning of
pumps is made in accordance with a working time (" 1/3-2/3 " of total time).
The first switch placed on AUTO position indicates the selection of the main pump.
The so called main pump will work 4h (that is to say 2/3 of total time defined at 6h).
At the end of 4h, there will be an automatic permutation on the secondary pump which will
work 2h (that is to say 1/3 of time) and so on, and so forth.
When both selector switches of the sewage transfer pumps are put back on 0 , the above
2/3-1/3 principle is initialized: none of the pumps can be called main or secondary and the
time counters 1/3-2/3 are reset.
If the pump which has to work during its allocated time is not available then the 2/3-1/3
principle is cancelled and the available pump starts or continues to work.
The sewage transfer pumping starts as soon as the high level 92SEO006SN is recovered. The
main pump starts if there are no faults. The sewage pumping stops as soon as the low level
92SEO005SN is discovered.
If the high emergency level 92SEO007SN is reached, a fault is set and displayed on the
display unit. So the secondary pump starts until the high level 92SEO006SN is discovered.

Mechanical mixer 92SEO 001ZE will be working for 300s before sewage pumping starts, so
that sludge will not be accumulated in the bottom of the tank and sewage transfer pumps will
be safe to work.
Each sewage transfer pump is stopped with:
- Its selector switch not on AUTO position,
- Fault #1 & #4 cabinet control emergency stop,
- Its tripped fault sewage pump #,
- Its thermometer probe motor fault sewage pump #,
- Fault #20 low emergency level sewage tank 92SEO004SN,

- Fault #81 High level sludge stabilization for 20 hours.
- Fault #83 Air pressure compressor down for 24 hours.
- Fault #86 Sludge pumping off for 24 hours.
Manual mode
The operator has to avoid the manual mode. It is not the normal working.
It can be used to drain off the sewage tank when a maintenance operation is needed.
(Mechanical mixer, mechanized bar screen, pump).
Special care must be taken when using this mode. As much as possible the sewage pumps
must not work when the mechanized bar screen and the mechanical mixer are stopped.
On manual mode, the sewage pumps are enslaved only to security level 92SEO004SN.
However most of stop conditions used for automatic mode are still operational on the manual
mode (see below), as the operator must not saturate the sludge stabilization or one of the
settling tanks.
The light selector switch of the pump selected by the operator is on MANUAL position.
The selected pump is working as long as the security level 92SEO004SN is recovered, so the
red selector switch light is lighted.
The low emergency level 92SEO004SN is a hardware security.

4.2. Primary settling tank 92SEO 003BA


One of the two submergible pumps (92SEO 003PO & 92SEO 004PO) seen in the previous
pages, transfers the wastewater into the primary settling tank (92SEO 003BA). Here the
wastewater is going to be clarified so that only soluble organic matters are sent to the fixed
bed bioreactor.
The clarified wastewater flows out by gravity of primary settling tank to the fixed bed
bioreactor (92SEO 004BA)
A low level 92SEO 008SN equips the primary settling tank.
It is used for the sludge extraction cycle. (See the sludge storage & stabilization paragraph)
Alarm (#40) is set with special conditions to inform the operator that the primary settling tank
is abnormally emptying.

4.3. Biological treatment 92SEO 004BA


The wastewater flows out by gravity from the primary settling tank to the fixed bed bioreactor
(92SEO 004BA). The bioreactor is divided in two stages in series.
This bioreactor is equipped with a combined system of diffused air oxygenation with 24
diffusers.
4.3.1. Air blowers (92SEO 001ZV&92SEO 002ZV)
Two air blowers produce the air oxygenation.
The rated power of the air blower's motor is 5.5 kW on 400VAC.
The first one, named 92SEO 001ZV is dedicated to the fixed bed bioreactor (92SEO004BA),
and the other one, named 92SEO 002ZV to the sludge stabilization tank (92SEO006BA).
The following control buttons can be found on the door of the cabinet control:
- A two fixed positions red light selector switch OFF-ON named 92SEO005CL associated
to the 92SEO 001ZV air blower #1.
- A three fixed positions red light selector switch RESCUE-0FF-ON named 92SEO006CL
associated to the 92SEO 002ZV air blower #2.
- A blue light push button RESCUE MODE VALIDATION named 92SEO001BL.
Normal working mode:
Those two air blowers must always be running.
The right manual valves must be correctly placed and then, the operator has to put each
selector switch on the ON position to start the air oxygenation production for the both tanks.
The red selector switch light 92SEO005CL is lighted when the air blower #1 is running.
The red selector switch light 92SEO006CL is lighted when the air blower #2 is running.
The air blower #1 is stopped 10min every 24 hours (recovery time cycle).
The red selector switch light 92SEO005CL will blink during this stop period.

The air blower #1 is stopped with:


- Its selector switch not on ON position,
- Fault #1 & #4 cabinet control emergency stop,
- Fault #50 Tripped fault air blower #1.
The air blower #2 is stopped with:
- Its selector switch not on ON position,
- Fault #1 & #4 cabinet control emergency stop,
- Fault #51 Tripped fault air blower #2.
Rescue mode:
Sludge stabilization air oxygenation production
If the air blower #2 is not running (Tripped fault or selector switch OFF), alarms (#51 & 54)
are set just to inform the operator that the sludge stabilization tank is working without air
oxygenation. The sewage transfer pumping is still running.
Air oxygenation must be delivered in priority to the bioreactor. There is no rescue mode to
produce air oxygenation for the sludge stabilization tank.
All necessary works must be done as soon as possible to come back in the normal working.
Biological air oxygenation production
If the air blower #1 is not running (Tripped fault or selector switch OFF), alarms (#50 & 52)
are set. The sewage transfer pumping is stopped.
The message #52 air blower #1 not running. So sewage pumping stopped is displayed
A rescue mode is required.
The operator has to manoeuvre manual valves to dedicate the air blower #2 to the bioreactor.
First, he must open the manual valve 055VE and then close the manual valve 053VE. The last
one is equipped with a closed limit switch named 92SEO001FC.
As soon as this limit switch is switched on (It means the valve is completely closed), the alarm
#55 manual valve 053VE closed is set, a message is displayed on the unit display and
the air blower #1 92SEO001ZV is stopped.
In Anyway to restart the air blower #1, the manual valve 053VE must not be close and the
alarm must be reset.
Then the operator has to place the selector switch 92SEO006CL on the rescue mode.
The blue light of the push button will blink because the air blower #1 is not running and the
selector switch is on the rescue mode.
The operator validates this mode by the blue light push button. So the message #53 is
displayed on the display unit and the blue light of the push button is lighted.
The sewage pumping which has stopped previously due to air blower #1 not running will start
again.
An emergency stop or a PLC restart doesnt reset the rescue mode.
The way to do it is to place out the selector switch 92SEO006CL from the rescue position.

On F5-1 page, the operator allows (ON) or not (OFF) the temporary stop of air blower 1
during 10 minutes every 24 hours (recovery time cycle).
The periods cannot be modified; the only choice given to the operator is "ON" or "OFF".
The "ON" choice is recommended for normal working so as that the air-diffusing membranes
may relax for a short period every day (recovery time cycle).

4.4. Secondary settling tank (92SEO 005BA)


After biological treatment, the secondary settling tank (92SEO 005BA) receives the effluent by
gravity. Here the treated effluent is going to be clarified. Then the clarified water of the
secondary settling tank is directed by gravity across the UV disinfection treatment (U.V
sterilizer (92SEO001SR) to the discharge tank (92SEO008BA)
A low level 92SEO009SN equips the secondary settling tank.
It is used for the sludge extraction cycle. (See the sludge storage & stabilization paragraph)
Alarm (#60) is set with special conditions to inform the operator the secondary settling tank is
abnormally emptying.

The UV sterilizer (92SEO001SR) cubicle is equipped with:
Two ON/OFF selector switches, (one by UV reactor)
Two time counters
The power supply is coming from the cabinet control. The alarm #70 is activated on a power
supply fault.
The alarm #71 is displayed on the display unit when the UV lamps might be changed.
The sewage pumping is still working even these faults are presents.

4.6. Sludge storage and stabilization (92SEO006BA)


4.6.1. Principle
The sludge stabilization tank is equipped with a combined system of diffused air oxygenation
and 16 diffusers. (Air blowers explanation: see biological treatment paragraph)
Sludge pumping is shared by the two settling tanks.
Sludge extraction from both settling tanks is realized with two pneumatics pumps 92SEO
005PO & 92SEO 006PO. They are working in duty and standby.
Sludge extraction is not possible simultaneously on both settling tanks.
The selection of the settling tank sludge extraction is realized with two pneumatics valves
92SEO 058VE & 92SEO 059VE. Cycle explanation is given below:
Pneumatics valves and pumps are supplied through the air compressor 92SEO 001CO.
The rated power of the air blower's motor is 2.2 kW on 400VAC.
A pressure switch 92SEO002SP detects a low pressure. In case of low air pressure, an alarm
(#82) is set immediately and sludge extraction is stopped. Several hours later, if the low
pressure is still present, the alarm #83 is set and the sewage transfer pumping is stopped.
The both pumps 92SEO005PO & 92SEO006PO and the both pneumatics valves
92SEO058VE & 92SEO059VE are stopped on the following faults:
- Fault #1 & #4 cabinet control emergency stop,
- Fault #6 & #7 Load shedding mode and power supply off,
- Fault #82 low air pressure 92SEO002SP
- Fault #83 24h air pressure down 92SEO002SP
- Fault #84 Tripped compressor.

General description of the operating interfacing


The first pump selector switch (92SEO005PO & 92SEO006PO) to be placed on the AUTO
position gives the priority to its pump and it is becomes the main one.
It is possible to verify the main pump selected with the page F7-1 of the unit display.
The only way to invalidate the main pump selected is to place the both pump selector switches
on their 0 position.
There are no automatic pump permutations. It is only the operator who can choose the
working pump by the way of proceed just above.
As soon as the main pump is selected, the indicator light of the cycle selected by the sludge
mode selection selector switch is blinking. But the mode conditions must be presents. (See

4.6.3. Auto mode (selector switch 1st position)


The auto cycle extraction" mode is the normal working mode. It used to extract automatically
the primary and the secondary settling tanks sludge. Extracted sludge is directed into the
sludge stabilization tank.
Switches positions:
The operator places the sludge mode selection selector switch on the AUTO CYCLE
EXTRACTION position (#1). Auto cycle extraction mode is not yet validated. The green
indicator light AUTO CURRENT SLUDGE MODE named 92SEO001LA is off.
He must place one of the sludge pump selector switch on the AUTO position (92SEO007CL
or 92SEO008CL).
Note :
1) Sludge extraction from both settling tanks is realized with two pneumatics pumps
92SEO005PO & 92SEO006PO. They are working in duty and standby. But there is no
automatic permutation between those sludge pumps. The operator will have to change the
switch pump selector to permute the functioning pump.
2) None of the 2 pumps will work on "MANUAL" position.
3) If one switch is on "AUTO" position and the other on "MANUAL" position, only the pump
whose switch is on "AUTO" position will work.
4) If both switches are on "AUTO" position, only the pump whose switch has been put on that
position first will work.
Then the green indicator light AUTO CURRENT SLUDGE MODE blinks. Sludge pumps
are still stopped and the both pneumatic valves 92SEO058VE & 92SEO059VE are closed.
The operator has to validate the auto extraction cycle mode, this is done by using the blue
push button SLUGE MODE VALIDATION.
The green indicator light AUTO CURRENT SLUDGE MODE is now lighted.
Sludge extraction cycle :
For example the cycle may be initialised to begin at 8.00 am. The operating cycle of the
sludge extraction is 24 hours.
On the display unit the AUTO SLUDGE EXTRACTION CYCLE TIMER preset and
current values are available.
The preset value is 1440mn and not modifiable. The current value increases and can be
modified by the operator if he wants to change the beginning point of the auto sludge
extraction cycle.
A timer dedicated to the primary settling tank sludge extraction is available on the display
unit.
Normally, it is not necessary to modify this value at each cycle. It is set at the beginning of the
installation, but the operator can adjust it according to the process.

The auto sludge extraction cycle begins with the primary settling tank.
The pneumatic valve 92SEO059VE opens, and a few seconds later the selected sludge pump
starts and works as long as the SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACTION TIMERS is
running. The red selector switch light of the selected pump is lighted. (92SEO007CL or
92SEO008CL)
When the primary SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACTION TIMERS is ended, the
primary settling tank auto extraction is stopped, a counter is increased (PRIMARY
SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACT.REALIZED), and it goes on to the secondary
settling tank.
The pneumatic valve 92SEO059VE closes, and the pneumatic valve 92SEO058VE opens.
During this operation, the sludge pumps are stopped. The sludge pumping restarts a few
seconds after the pneumatic valve 92SEO058VE has open.
When the secondary SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACTION TIMERS is ended, the
secondary settling tank auto extraction is stopped, a counter is increased (SECONDARY
SETTLING TANK SLUDGE EXTRACT.REALIZED), and the cycle is finished until the end
of the 24 hours running.
The pneumatic valves 92SEO058VE & 92SEO059VE are closed, and the sludge pumps are
stopped.
If the auto sludge extraction cycle on both settling tanks has not finished at the end of the 24
hours, the last cycle and timers SETTLING TANKS SLUDGE EXTRACTION are reset,
and a new cycle begins.
Stopping sludge extraction:
With an emergency stop or a cabinet control power shutdown, the current values of timers and
counters just on top are not reset.
When the sludge pumps are working, the operator may change the preset timer values from the
display unit. The system reacts immediately to this modification.
The primary and secondary settling tanks are both equipped with low level sensors named
92SEO008SN & 92SEO009SN respectively. When they are discovered, the alarms #40 or #60
are set and displayed on the display unit.
Alarm #40 stops the primary settling tank sludge extraction, and the cycle goes on to the other
one.
Alarm #60 stops the secondary settling tank sludge extraction. A new cycle will begin when
the 24 hours will be down.
The sludge stabilization tank is equipped with a high level named 92SEO010SN.
The alarm #80 is set and displayed on the display unit when the level is reached.
When alarm #80 occurs, the auto cycle extraction mode is deactivated and sludge extraction
from the settling tanks is stopped (sludge pumps stopped and pneumatic valves 92SEO058VE
&92SEO059VE closed).
The green indicator light 92SEO001LA is off.
It is impossible to validate the auto cycle extraction mode once more. The high level
92SEO010SN in the stabilization tank must be discovered.
Another way to deactivate the auto mode, which is the normal one:
None of sludge pumps selector switches (92SEO007CL and 92SEO008CL) must be
on the AUTO position.

4.6.4. Primary mode (selector switch 2nd position)


The primary mode is used to drain off the primary settling tank or to extract its sludge
manually. Extracted sludge is directed into the sludge stabilization tank.
The operator must pay careful attention when this mode is used. Even if there are some
securities linked, this operation remains entirely under his control. However this mode may be
helpful for certain operations such as checking, maintenance etc.
Switches positions:
The operator places the sludge mode selection selector switch on the PRIMARY
SETTLING TANK DRAINING position (#2). Primary mode is not yet validated. The
yellow indicator light PRIMARY CURRENT SLUDGE MODE named 92SEO002LA is
off.
The primary mode can work in 2 ways:
- manual draining
- or automatic draining.
a) Manual draining:
This mode will stop automatically in the following conditions:
- Extraction has been performed during 2 hours
- or when stabilization tank is full (alarm #80)
The operator places one of the sludge pump selector switch on the MANUAL position
(92SEO007CL or 92SEO008CL).
Then the yellow indicator light PRIMARY CURRENT SLUDGE MODE blinks if the
primary mode conditions in manual draining are presents. At this moment sludge pump is
still stopped.
Now to validate the primary mode, the operator uses the blue push button SLUDGE
MODE VALIDATION.
The yellow indicator light PRIMARY CURRENT SLUDGE MODE switches on, the
pneumatic valve 92SEO059VE dedicated to the primary settling tank opens and then after
a few seconds the selected sludge pump starts. The red selector switch light of the selected
pump is lighted.
The sludge pump continues to work as long as the operator wishes it.
The primary settling tank is equipped with a low level named 92SEO008SN.
When it is discovered, the alarm #40 is set and displayed on the display unit, but the
primary mode is not deactivated, the extraction goes on.

Sludge is directed to the stabilization tank which is equipped with a high level named
92SEO010SN. The alarm #80 is set and displayed on the display unit when the level is
reached. When this alarm occurs, the primary mode is deactivated and sludge extraction
from the primary settling tank is stopped (sludge pump stopped and pneumatic valve
92SEO059VE closed).
The yellow indicator light 92SEO002LA is off.
It is impossible to validate the primary mode once more. The high level must be

4.6.5. Secondary mode (selector switch 3rd position)


The secondary mode is used to drain off the secondary settling tank or to extract it sludge
manually. Extracted sludge is directed into the sludge stabilization tank.
The operator must pay careful attention when this mode is used. Even if there are some
securities linked, this operation remains entirely under his control. However this mode may be
helpful for certain operations such as checking, maintenance etc.
Switches positions:
The operator places the sludge mode selection selector switch on the SECONDARY
SETTLING TANK DRAINING position (#3). Secondary mode is not yet validated. The
yellow indicator light SECONDARY CURRENT SLUDGE MODE named 92SEO003LA
is off.
The secondary mode can work in 2 ways:
- manual draining
- or automatic draining.
a) Manual draining:
This mode will stop automatically in the following conditions:
- Extraction has been performed during 2 hours
- or when stabilization tank is full (alarm #80)
The operator places one of the sludge pump selector switch on the MANUAL position
(92SEO007CL or 92SEO008CL).
Then the yellow indicator light SECONDARY CURRENT SLUDGE MODE is
blinking if the secondary mode conditions in manual draining are presents. At this moment
sludge pump is still stopped.
Now to validate the secondary mode, the operator uses the blue push button SLUDGE
MODE VALIDATION.
The yellow indicator light SECONDARY CURRENT SLUDGE MODE switches on,
the pneumatic valve 92SEO058VE dedicated to the secondary settling tank opens and then
after a few seconds the selected sludge pump starts. The red selector switch light of the
selected pump is lighted.
The sludge pump continues to work as long as the operator wished it.
The secondary settling tank is equipped with a low level named 92SEO009SN.
When it is discovered, the alarm #60 is set and displayed on the display unit, but the
secondary mode is not deactivated, the extraction goes on.
Sludge is directed to the stabilization tank which is equipped with a high level named
92SEO010SN.
The alarm #80 is set and displayed on the display unit when the level is reached.
When this alarm occurs, the secondary mode is deactivated and sludge extraction from
the secondary settling tank is stopped (sludge pump stopped and pneumatic valve
92SEO058VE closed).
The yellow indicator light 92SEO003LA is off.
It is impossible to validate the secondary mode once more. The high level must be
discovered.

4.6.6. Sludge mode (selector switch 4th position)
The sludge mode is used to drain off the sludge stabilization tank. Sludge is directed into a
truck tank, to be taken away.
The operator places the sludge mode selection selector switch on the SLUDGE
STABILIZATION TANK DRAINING position (#4). Sludge mode is not yet validated.
The yellow indicator light SLUDGE TANK CURRENT SLUDGE MODE named
92SEO004LA is off.
He places one of the sludge pump selector switch on the MANUAL position. Then the
yellow indicator light SLUDGE TANK CURRENT SLUDGE MODE starts blinking if
the sludge mode conditions are presents. At this moment Sludge pump is still stopped.
At this step, the operator must have connected all pipes to the truck and manoeuvred the
appropriate manual valves.
Now to validate the sludge mode, the operator uses the blue push button SLUDGE MODE
VALIDATION.
The yellow indicator light SLUDGE TANK CURRENT SLUDGE MODE switches on,
the pneumatic valves 92SEO058VE and 92SEO059VE dedicated to the settling tanks are
closing and then after the sludge pump selected starts. The red selector switch light of the
selected pump is lighted. (92SEO007CL or 92SEO008CL)
Before launching the sludge mode, the operator has to preset a working timer available in
the display unit. The sludge pump is functioning as long as this timer is running. When this
timer has ended, the sludge mode is deactivated. Sludge stabilization tank pumping is
stopped and the yellow indicator light starts blinking once more.
Depending on whether truck tank is full or not, the operator can choose to activate once more
the sludge mode, just with the push button SLUDGE MODE VALIDATION.
Before doing so, the operator can adjust a new timer preset value.
During the sludge pumps working, the operator can change the preset timer value from the
display unit if needed. The system reacts immediately to this modification. If the new preset
value is less than the current value, sludge mode is immediately deactivated.
Another way to deactivate the sludge mode:
None of the sludge pumps selector switches (92SEO007CL and 92SEO008CL) must be on the
MANUAL position

5. STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE PLANT


The installation and first start instructions are described in another document.
The procedures described hereafter are for stopping and starting the plant after, for example,
maintenance works or any abnormal situation.

5.1. Stopping the plant


5.1.1. Short term stopping
Normally, the operator does not have to stop the waste water treatment plant for week ends:
-

In absence of wastewater to be treated, the low level sensors in the sewage tank 92SEO
002BA will automatically stop both sewage transfer pumps 92SEO003PO & 92SEO004PO,
as well as the mechanized bar screen 92SEO001DG and the mechanical mixer
92SEO001ZE.
Both blowers 92SEO001ZV & 92SEO002ZV continue to work so as to give oxygen to the
biomass in the fixed bed bioreactor and the sludge stabilization tank.

5.1.2. Long term stopping


If the plant has to be stopped for more than two weeks,
- Wait till the sewage tank has been emptied and that the mechanized bar screen
92SEO001DG as well as sewage pumps 92SEO003PO & 92SEO004PO and the
mechanized mixer 92SEO001ZE have come to a stop.
- On the control cabinet door, put the switches corresponding to these 4 equipments on "0"
position.
- Remove the wastes in the waste tank 92SEO007BA. Clean the bar screen as well as the
waste tank.
- Drain the sludge in the primary settling tank 92SEO003BA and the secondary tank
92SEO005BA using either the manual or automatic drain (see instructions chapter 7)
- Stop both sludge pumps 92SEO005PO and 92SEO006PO (switches position on "0")
- Stop the UV sterilizer.
- Drain the UV sterilizer and the discharge tank and clean them with clear water. Fill again
the UV sterilizer with clean water.
All switches are now on "0" position except those of the air blowers 92SEO001ZV and
92SEO002ZV. The working of theses blowers must be maintained so that the microorganisms
in the fixed bed bioreactor and the sludge stabilization tank may be oxygenated.
Reduce the air flow rate on the bioreactor 92SEO004BA with the manual valve 056VE. Open
totally the manual valve 056VE and check the diffusers are still diffusing air. If not, search the
good adjustment.
Do not cut power off the control cabinet.
Check liquid level in the fixed bed bioreactor, make up to level if necessary so as to maintain
the fixed beds under water.
Remove all wastes and clean the area.

6. RUNNING THE PLANT


In normal running mode, the manual valves to be opened and the position of the selector switches are
indicated in chapter 5.2.
The instructions in this chapter are given to help the operator in normal, running situation.

6.1. General instructions


1) A specific note book is to be held for the waste water plant so as to record the following :
- Everyday checking, normal running actions (cleaning, waste disposal etc) and observations,
- Periodic maintenance (parts replacement, lubrication & greasing when applicable etc)
- Treated water analysis and meter reading.
- Abnormal situations, alarms and incidents as well as corrective actions done.
2) The plant area must be kept clean and dry so that any leaks may be seen rapidly.
3) When an alarm occurs, correct it as soon as possible then check that the plant is once again
working normally.
4) Read and record the values indicated on all meters
5) Checking rounds must be done daily and maintenance must be performed as needed (see
corresponding documents).
6) Check regularly the performance of the plant (treated water analysis).
7) Establish the plant statement every month (water analysis, volume discharged, wastes production,
repairs and costs.

6.2. Fault treatment


When an alarm occurs, the fault message can be seen blinking on the display unit page F2 and
the yellow beacon on the control cabinet also blinks.
There are 2 types of fault reset:
- automatic reset
- reset by acknowledge push button

7. OTHER PROCEDURES
The operator may need to put part of the waste water plant temporarily in other modes of
working than that of the normal mode described in chapters 5.2. and 6.
In this chapter, instructions are given for the following operations:
- mechanized bar screen 92SEO 001DG in manual mode;
- air blower 92SEO 002ZV in rescue mode for biological treatment oxygenation;
- primary settling tank draining to stabilization tank;
- primary settling tank draining to truck,
- secondary settling tank draining to stabilization tank,
- secondary settling tank draining to truck,
- stabilization tank sludge draining to truck

7.1. Using mechanized bar screen 92SEO 001DG in manual mode


In normal working, the mechanized bar screen works with:
- its switch on AUTO position
- and according to the cycle parameters (time On, time OFF) set on page F3-2 of the
display unit .
The operator may need to make the bar screen work in a continuous way, for example, in case of
a great amount of solids to be removed or for test after a maintenance work.
Proceed as follows:
-

On the display unit, page F3-2, adjust the manual parameters, for example PV = 15
mn
Note : 15 mn is the maximum value that can be set.

Place the bar screen selector switch on the door of the cabinet control on
"MANUAL" position. Validate with the green push button.

Check the waste level in waste tank 92SEO 007BA.

The mechanized bar screen will now work continuously during the time set for this
mode and then stops.

Return to automatic mode.

7.2. Starting up air blower 92SEO 001ZV and biological oxygenation


7.2.1. Introduction
The waste water plant is equipped with 2 air blowers:
- air blower 92SEO 001ZV is normally dedicated to the fixed bed bioreactor,
- air blower 92SEO 002ZV is normally dedicated to the stabilization tank.
In normal working, the two air blowers run with their switch on AUTO position.
7.2.2. Starting-up
See the maintenance manual OM101 for the first starting-up of diffusers after air network
assembling.
To starting-up :
The blower 92SEO 001 ZV is off and the switch is on OFF position.
- Open the drain valve 027VE and the air feeding valve 050VE.
- Verify the isolation valve 055VE is totally closed and check that the air feeding valve
053VE is opened.
- Open totally the manual valve 056VE.
- Place air blower 92SEO 001 ZV switch on "ON" position
- Check that all the diffusers are diffusing air
- Wait few minutes to evacuate the condensate and close the drain valve 027VE
- Still wait as soon as the level of fixed bed bioreactor 92SEO004BA is stable
- Then close gradually the manual valve 056VE to increase the flowrate at the nominal
flow.
- Check that the diffusion is being performed correctly in the fixed bed bioreactor.
Normally, with new diffusers, the first adjustment while working lets go through the
manual valve 056VE about 35 m3/h.

7.3. Using air blower 92SEO 002ZV in rescue mode for biological oxygenation
7.3.1. Introduction
The waste water plant is equipped with 2 air blowers:
- air blower 92SEO 001ZV is normally dedicated to the fixed bed bioreactor,
- air blower 92SEO 002ZV is normally dedicated to the stabilization tank.
In normal working, the two air blowers run with their switch on AUTO position.
The main treatment process in this plant takes place in the fixed bed bioreactor. This is a
biological aerobic treatment. In order that the microorganisms may live, grow and survive,
oxygen must always be supplied to the bioreactor.
So, in case of air blower 92SEO 001ZV breakdown or on a voluntary stop for maintenance for
example, air blower 92SEO 002ZV must be used to supply the fixed bed bioreactor with
oxygen. The stabilization tank 92SEO 006 BA can be left temporarily without air diffusion.

7.4. Primary settling tank draining to stabilization tank


7.4.1. Introduction
In normal working, sludge draining is performed automatically from both the primary and
secondary settling tanks. The draining is cyclic, according to the timers values set on the display
unit (pages F7-3, F7-6 & F7-7). The selector switches on the front door of the control cabinet are
as follows:
- SLUDGE MODE SELECTION switch : 1-AUTO CYCLE EXTRACTION
- SLUDGE PUMP #1 92SEO 005 PO ..... : (AUTO) or (0)
- SLUDGE PUMP #2 92SEO 006 PO .... : (AUTO) or (0)
Only one switch is to be placed on "AUTO", the other one must be on "0" position
The operator may need to draw off more sludge from the primary settling tank because sludge
level is too high or for checking or maintenance reasons. Sludge is directed to the stabilization
tank, valve 037VE is open. Proceed as described below.
7.4.2. Primary mode procedure

The operator has to push on the "ENTER" key on the display unit, the fault message stays
lighted but now in a fixed position.
The operator then pushes on the "Acknowledge fault" yellow push button: the yellow
beacon stays lighted but now in a fixed position.

The message and the yellow beacon stay lighted as long as the fault is present.
When the fault that has triggered the alarm disappears (fault correction done), the message on the
display unit disappears and the yellow beacon light is off.
The associated actuator in the plant can restart without other action on the part of the operator.
8.1.2. Fault reset by acknowledge push button
The fault message on the display unit and the yellow beacon are blinking.
-

The operator has to push on the "ENTER" key on the display unit, the fault message stays
lighted but now in a fixed position.
The operator then pushes on the "Acknowledge fault" yellow push button: the yellow
beacon stays lighted but now in a fixed position.

The message and the yellow beacon stay lighted as long as the fault is present.
When the fault that has triggered the alarm disappears (fault correction done), once again the operator
has to push on the "Acknowledge fault" yellow push button.
Only then will the associated actuator in the plant restart; the message on the display unit disappears
and the yellow beacon light goes off.
