المُلخص التنفيذي

عملية الحمأة المُنشطة Activated Sludge تُشير إلى وحدة مُعالجة تتكون من مُفاعل مُتعدد الغُرَف، والذي يتَستخدم الكائنات الحيَّة الدقيقة المُركزة لتحلل المواد العضوية، ولإزالة المُغذيات من مياه الصرف؛ وذلك من أجل إنتاج تدفقات سائلة خارجة عالية الجودة. وللحفاظ على الظروف الهوائية، ولإبقاء الحمأة النشطة مُعلّقة، فإن إمدادت الأكسجين المُستمرة والمنتظمة مطلوبة.

يُمكن استخدام العديد من التجهيزات المختلفة لعملية الحمأة المُنشطة لضمان مزج وتهوية مياه الصرف جيدًا في حَوْض التهوية، ويُمكن القيام بعمليتي التهوية والمزج عن طريق ضخ الهواء أو الأكسجين إلى الخزَّان، أو باستخدام أجهزة التهوية السطحية. تُؤكسد الكائنات الحية الدقيقة الكربون العضوي الموجود في مياه الصرف، مما يؤدي إلى إنتاج خلايا جديدة، وثاني أكسيد الكربون والماء. على الرغم من أن البكتريا الهوائية هي الكائنات الحية الأكثر تواجدًا داخل المُفاعل، فإن البكتريا الاختيارية Facultative Bacterial -بالإضافة إلى بعض الكائنات الحية الأكبر- ممكن أن تتواجد. التكوين الفعلي لمحتوى المُفاعل يعتمد على التصميم، والبيئة، وخصائص مياه الصرف.

الندف (تكتلات من جزيئات الحمأة النشطة) التي تكونت في حَوْض التهوية، يُمكن إزالتها في المُرَوِّق الثانوي، وذلك عن طريق الترسيب الطبيعى المُعتمد على الجاذبية الأرضية. يتم إعادة تدوير جزء من هذه الحمأة من المُرَوّقات إلى المُفاعل مرة أخرى. يُمكن تصريف التدفقات السائلة الخارجة أو مُعالجتها في مُنشأة مُعالجة ثلاثية إذا لزم الأمر لاستخدامها فيما بعد.

Factsheet Block Body
عملية الحمأة المُنشطة تكون مُناسبة فقط
لمرفق المُعالجة المركزية الذي يتواجد به طاقم مُدَرَّب جيدًا، وإمدادت مُستمرة من الكهرباء، ونظام إدارة مُحكم لتشغيل وصيانة المرفق بشكل صحيح.
تكون هذه التقنية أكثر فعَّالية في مُعالجة الكميات الكبيرة من التدفقات، وذلك بسبب الجدوى الاقتصادية للكميات الكبيرة، ومحدودية التغيرات في خصائص تدفقاتها السائلة الداخلة. عملية الحمأة المنشطة تكون مُناسبة تقريبًا في أي مناخ، ومع ذلك فإن قُدرة المُعالجة تقل في المناخات الأكثر برودة.

اعتبارات التصميم
Factsheet Block Body
تُعتبر عمليات الحمأة المُنشطة جزءًا واحدًا من نظام مُعالجة متكامل؛ فهي تُستخدم -عادةً- بعد عملية المُعالجة الابتدائية (التي تُزيل المواد الصلبة القابلة للترسيب)، ويليها -أحيانًا- خطوة مُعالجة نهائية (انظر المُعالجة اللاحقة تكون العمليات الحيوية فعَّالة في إزالة المواد الذائبة، والمواد الغروية
Colloidal، والجسيمات. يُمكِن تصميم المُفاعل للنترجة وإزالة (عكس) النترجة (إزالة النتروجين باختزال النترات) الحيوية، وكذلك عملية الإزالة الحيوية للفوسفور. 
يجب أن يعتمد التصميم على التقدير الدقيق لمُكوّنات وحجم مياه الصرف. وتتدهور كفاءة عملية المُعالجة بشدة إذا كانت المحطة أقل أو أكبر من حيث الأبعاد المطلوبة. اعتمادًا على درجة الحرارة، فإن زمن بقاء المواد الصلبة Solids Retention Time (SRT) في المُفاعل يترواح ما بين 3 إلى 5 أيام لإزالة الاحتياج الحيوي للأكسجين BOD، ويتراوح ما بين 3 إلى 18 يوم لعملية النترجة. 
تتطلب الحمأة الناتجة من عمليات مُعالجة؛ لتقليل محتواها من المياه والمواد العضوية، ومن أجل الحصول في النهاية على مُنتج مُثبَّت ومُناسب للاستخدام أو التخلص النهائي، ومن المهم اعتبار هذه الخطوة في مرحلة التخطيط لمحطة المُعالجة. 
 
للحصول علي جودة التدفقات السائلة الخارجة المطلوبة من حيث محتواها من الاحتياج الحيوي للأكسجين BOD، والنتروجين، والفسفور، فإن بعض التعديلات المختلفة تمت إضافتها إلى التصميم الأساسي الخاص بالحمأة المُنشطة؛ وتشمل بعض التعديلات المعروفة على: المُفاعلات ذات الدُفعات المُتتابعة Sequencing Batch Reactors (SBR)، وقنوات الأكسدة Oxidation Ditches، والتهوية المُمتدة Extended Aeration، والأحواض المُتحرّكة Moving Beds، ومُفاعلات الأغشية الحيوية Membrane Bioreactors.

بسبب متطلبات المساحة ومشاكل الروائح، تقع مرافق المُعالجة المركزية على أطراف المناطق ذات الكثافة السكانية العالية. على الرغم من أن جودة التدفقات السائلة الخارجة المُنتجة تكون عالية، فإنها لا تزال تشكل خطرًا على الصحة، وينبغي ألا يتم التعامل معها مباشرة. في الحمأة الزائدة يكون هناك انخفاض كبير لمسببات الأمراض، ولكن لا يتم القضاء عليها نهائيًّا.

تتطلب طاقمًا مُدربًا جيدًا من أجل القيام بعمليات الصيانة وإصلاح الأعطال. ويجب القيام بأعمال الصيانة باستمرار للمُعِدَّات الميكانيكية (الخلاطات، وأجهزة التهوية، والمضخات). كذلك، يجب متابعة التدفقات السائلة الداخلة والخارجة باستمرار، وضبط مُعاملات التَحَكُّم الخاصة بها إذا لزم الأمر؛ وذلك لتجنب بعض الحالات غير الطبيعية، التي قد تؤدي إلى قتل الكتلة الحيوية النشطة، وزيادة الكائنات الحية الدقيقة الضارة التي تُسبب مشاكل في المُعالجة (على سبيل المثال: البكتريا الخيطية Filamentous Bacteria).

Community-Based Technologies for Domestic Wastewater Treatment and Reuse- options for urban agriculture

The report suggests that emerging trends in low-cost, decentralised naturally-based infrastructure and urban wastewater management which promote the recovery and reuse of wastewater resources are increasingly relevant. Technologies for these sanitation options are presented. The concept of managing urban wastewater flows at a decentralised or "intermediate" level, based on micro watersheds, is explored. Effluent treatment standards that are currently accepted in order to protect public health and safety are reviewed.

Sustainable Wastewater Treatment

Wastewater contains organic matter and the three main nutrients for plant production: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Nitrogen fertilizer is energy consuming to produce and phosphorus is a limited mineral resource. Scandinavia is pioneering sustainable solutions to wastewater treatment. Source separation (blackwater/greywater) systems produce almost zero emissions and open up exiting urban applications of sanitation options in order to close the loop.
