Treatment of polluted municipal wastewater in Tashkent

Abstract

This article presents the results of a comparative study of the method of biological treatment using aquatic plants and algae to improve the technology of treatment of domestic and municipal wastewater treatment plants formed in urban areas. According to test results, 5 species of aquatic plants and 2 strains of algae tested, pistachio and eucalyptus species, and strains of Chlorella vulgaris UA-1-6 were found to be resistant to domestic wastewater. This water plant laripistiya and eichorniya species grow well in different wastewater concentrations (25%, 50%, 100%) in the 100%. Both water treatment stations have a high yield and treatment levels. It was observed that it reached 90% at the "Binokor" water treatment station and the water treatment station "Salar" - 82-86%. This is because the amount of harmful substances in the wastewater of the "Salar" water treatment station is 5 times higher than the number of pollutants in the water treatment station "Binokor". It should be noted that the results of wastewater treatment works at 2 water treatment plants showed that the type of pistachio plant is more resistant to wastewater than the type of eucalyptus, and the level of treatment is also high. Therefore, in the experiment at the "Salar" water treatment station, we found it necessary to use the pistachio water plant itself. At this wastewater treatment station, wastewater treatment reached an average of 84%, and to increase the treatment efficiency, we grew Chlorella vulgaris in the second treatment stage and found that the treatment efficiency was 90-92%. This means that the treatment of wastewater in each treatment station requires the development of biological treatment technology following it.
