Many industrial regions have a very polluted environment. It also affects the purity of the water. If it is not cleaned, the liquid will be unsuitable for drinking or hygiene. In addition, water is used in many enterprises. Its purity may affect the quality of some manufactured products that are widely used in the home.
If you live in a highly polluted environment (in a large industrial area), then you may have repeatedly observed one unique phenomenon. The water that flows from the tap may take on a greenish tint. Drinking or washing is out of the question, especially if the water source is near a chemical plant or other facility that contains toxic waste.
In well-developed cities, this problem is rare, because before getting into someone's house, the water goes through a special treatment. This function is performed by special cleaning stations. They can also be used to clean drains.
In this article, we will describe several types of treatment plants, as well as their functions and features.
Mobile wastewater treatment plants
Most often used in northern latitudes, where there is rocky ground. Can be used in areas with unstable ground.
The advantage of mobile treatment plants is that they allow you to save energy during operation by switching to a special mode. In addition, the number of garbage dumps is not limited, which allows you to use the stations for quite a long time.
Mobile treatment facilities can not be used everywhere. They show their best when working on construction sites, as well as in special temporary settlements in which the organization of a household unit is being carried out.
An excellent choice will serve for mass city events. Also, mobile treatment plants are well used in various restaurants, cafes, pizzerias and so on.
But they are most effective in places with unstable ground. That is why such stations are most often used in northern latitudes in permafrost conditions. This is due to the fact that conventional water treatment plants are difficult to install in the ground.
Household wastewater treatment plant
Sewage is one of these facilities. They can be divided into 3 types: household, storm and industrial.
Household wastewater is used to create sewer systems in residential buildings or public organizations. They clean all the sewer paths from the bathrooms.
Storm - surface or rain runoff. They are the most environmentally friendly and less dangerous. These types of drains are used to clean roofs, asph alt roads and other areas. They have several levels of flow through which water descends. In addition to cleaning the surface of water, storm drains also purify the water itself. They remove various impurities from its composition.
Industrial effluents - used in factories and are highly toxic and chemically hazardous. This is due to the fact that many water production facilities have different amounts of hazardous impurities. Designs can vary in their complexity and contain a different number of levels. It depends on the amount of various impurities in the water, as well as on its composition.
Biological treatment
Biological treatment facilities are more often used in private homes or cottages. If you have your own private house with a garden, especially if it is located in a small village, then you often thought about creating cesspools. This type of "yard" sewage is considered biological.
This also includes septic tanks and ready-made treatment devices for summer cottages.
Conclusion
After reading this article, we can conclude that there are a huge number of treatment facilities. They differ not only in their functions, but also in their applications.
