Estudo sobre a condição de coleta e tratamento de esgoto sanitário do município de Ubatuba-SP

The actual work broaches a study about the collection and treatment of sanitary sewage from the municipality of Ubatuba in its operational aspects and the tariff policy from the service. Themes related to the subject like the history of collection and treatment of sewage, its development in Brazil and its importance for public health and environmental preservation, as well as historical and geographical aspects of Ubatuba/SP, are present in the literature review. The methodology consists in guided visit in the colletion and treatment of sewage facilities and interview with technical managers. With the technical data obtained, it is made a discussion of the results and possible recommendations

Avaliação da auto-suficiência energética de reatores anaeróbios no tratamento de esgoto sanitário e de água preta

The purpose of this project is to verify whether anaerobic reactors applied to sewage treatment are energetically self-sufficient. This evaluation can be made by balancing the methane produced through the anaerobic transformation stages (hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis and methanogenesis) and the reactor energy consumption requirements. The original project included methanogenic activity tests, which could not be performed due to setbacks in the installation of an analytical instrument. Scientific articles about bench- and full-scale anaerobic reactors were investigated instead. An average substrate-to-methane conversion efficiency of 58,2±18,6% was found for the bench-scale reactors and higher efficiencies (89,2%) were found for the cases which had higher Organic Loading Rates (OLRs) values. The average energy output was 0,013 kWh/Lsewage, value unable to meet the energy needs for the reactor operation, considering equipments normally used such as temperature controller. This balance can become positive if few hypotheses are made, for example (i) to eliminate the use of temperature controller (ii) to alter the operation pattern from continuous to intermittent. Based on energy balance assessment of eight bench-scale reactors, it was observed that the implementation of a system for biogas utilization is not energetically feasible. However, interesting results were found for a full-scale sewage treatment plant, ETE Ouro Verde – Foz do Iguaçu, PR, Brazil. Even though its substrate-tomethane conversion efficiency was about 10% only, the energy balance was quite positive, with energy consumption of 68 kWh/month and energy production of 660 kWh/month. This analysis leads us to conclude that energy recovery from full-scale sewage treatment plants should be practiced by other plants

Análise estrutural do conjunto de palhetas de um aerador da estação de tratamento de efluentes

This work aims to find the maximum tension in a group of blades in a Sewage Treatment Stations in a company located in Vale do Paraíba. First, the calculations of the strength requested by the effluents on the structure are done, and the optimum torque of the frame screws is researched. From these data, static simulations using appropriate software and the finite elements method are performed. Based on the results, a possible solution to reduce the strength in this structure is proposed. This study will be provided as a consultation material to the company

Avaliação comparativa entre custos dos processos MBBR/IFAS e lodo ativado para o tratamento de esgoto sanitário

O processo MBBR/IFAS, Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor/Integrated Fixed Film Activated Sludge, é uma tecnologia recente para o tratamento de esgoto que incorpora tanto biomassa em suspensão como aderida. Seus parâmetros de controle são os mesmos aplicados ao processo de lodo ativado, observadas algumas especificidades. Como objetivo principal deste trabalho, apresenta-se uma análise comparativa entre os custos de implantação de uma unidade IFAS e de lodo ativado operando sob alta taxa, na faixa convencional e com aeração prolongada, para populações de 50.000 e 500.000 habitantes. Os resultados mostraram que, sob as hipóteses assumidas para a implantação dos reatores, o custo do processo de lodo ativado foi de 36% até 100% do custo do processo IFAS, dependendo da carga orgânica aplicada, do preço do terreno ou do custo do meio suporte.
