Included activities starts

The activity starts with receiving wastewater at the gate of the treatment facility. Collection and transportation of wastewater to the treatment plant are not included.

Included activities ends

The activity ends with the treatment of wastewater and the specific discharge of waste into the environment. It includes expenditures for wastewater treatment at waste treatment plants and related infrastructure of the facility. Emissions from any sludge digestion, biogas generation, and utilization (noting specific wastewater components) are also included.

Description

This dataset represents the treatment process of wastewater from kitchen waste. The treatment technologies mainly include aerobic biological treatment, activated sludge process, A-O, A2-O, oxidation ditch, MBR, SBR, and biofilm process.

Process Description

Kitchen waste water, commonly known as greasy water, is generated from daily household consumption and represents a significant source of urban environmental pollution. It contains large amounts of organic matter, such as food residues, fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, as well as high levels of suspended solids including food particles and oil droplets. It may also contain trace amounts of detergents and other chemicals. Additionally, it contains nutrient elements such as nitrogen and phosphorus, which may contribute to eutrophication of water bodies.
