Performance of a Subsurface Wastewater Infiltration System (SWIS) Using a Novel Biosubstrate

Article Preview

Abstract:

Subsurface wastewater infiltration treatment system (SWIS) is a domestic wastewater treatment technology. While the traditional technology has a large floor area, long starting period and low pollutants removal rate. A new biosubstrate that can be applied in SWIS is studied, experiments about its characteristics were performed, and treatment effect was compared. The results show that the biosubstrate has high biological activity, with it, SWIS has shorter starting period, better pollutants removal rate and consequently needs less floor space.
