The operating principle of the MSD-III biological sewage treatment system

Waste water enters the system at the inlet (1). The blower (2) provides air and causes the waste water to circulate through the sub­merged fixed media (4) by means of the airlift (3), a simple but reliable mammoth-pump principle. The micro-organisms that grow on the surface of the fixed media break down the organic particles in the waste water biologically. Treated water flows to the sump tank (7) via the spillover (6). The copper-silver ionization unit (17) releases precisely measured doses copper and silver ions as to eliminate most bacteria and viruses already and prevent fouling in the system. The result is high-quality treatment coefficients and effluent that is suitable for UV (8) radiation and post-filtration (15) before being discharged overboard. The back flush pump (14) automatically cleans the post-filtration unit, timer and differential pressure controlled. Grey water can enter the unit either through an optional grey water inlet for post-filtration only, or through the inlet (1) for biological treatment. The discharge pump (9) and level switches (10) automatically maintain substance levels in the back flush tank (13). A limited amount of sludge (11) settles at the bottom of the unit and can be released through air (12) and discharged by the discharge pump (9).
