The most important components of a BIOCOS Unit
The following shows a typical BIOCOS unit. Click on either the right or left side of the photo. By clicking on the photo direct, you will bring up a full picture of the unit.
Simple, Flexible Technology
1. Preliminary clarification
- Pumpage or screw conveyor
- Fine screen
- Aerated grit removal tank with grease trap
- Micro-strainer
The constructional and mechanical installations for the hydraulic level control, the preliminary clarification and sand filtration have been planned by our engineers, as also the technical innovations.
2. Aeration and sludge pumpage
- Air blower
- Pneumatic valves
- Sludge siphon
3. Activated sludge tank
Placed at the bottom of the tank are air diffusers. These are connected to the air blower via a V4A piping system.
- high quality and secure sealing with HDPE water tight troughs
- robust measuring technology
4. Sedimentation & Circulation (SU)
5. Phosphate precipitation
- Precipitation unit including feeder
- Phosphate precipitation is done in the SU tanks
6. Removal and thicken of excess sludge
- Sludge thickener
