Secondary Clarifier
Mixture from the aeration tank goes into the secondary clarifier to complete the separation of liquid and solid phase.
The separated water goes for final treatment and discharge.
To ensure an efficient amount of biomass in the system, it is important to keep a fixed level of sludge in the clarifier .
The large part of the sludge is continuously returned to the aeration tank RAS, the remaining sludge is discontinuously discharged to thickener WAS.
The ratio of RAS to WAS is controlled to maintain the correct sludge quality
(usually called “aged sludge”).
