    A Tch-Technion Consultoria, vem apresentar a Vsas. um sistema desenvolvido que visa comple-

    mentar os aeradores existentes em vossa planta fabril, melhorando a performance dos mesmose eliminando a formao dos aerossis e outros efeitos gerados durante o tratamento de efluen-tes.Apesar das vantagens obtidas pelo uso de aeradores em tratamento de efluentes, em algu-mas aplicaes podem ocorrer alguns efeitos secundrios como :

    Gerao de odor - comum em estaes de tratamento a ocorrncia de mau odor pela diges-to microbiana de matria orgnica, emanao de volteis presentes no efluente a ser tratado eat mesmo em funo da prpria composio do efluente a ser tratado. Com a aplicao dascampnulas os vapores e fontes geradoras de odor ficam contidas no interior das campnulasevitando sua disperso no meio.

    Formao de aerossis ou hidrossis,so gotculas de lquido formadas durante aformao do splash gerado pelo aerador emfuncionamento. Hoje de conhecimentoque estas gotculas apesar de pequenascarregam em seu interior microorganismosque em alguns casos podem ser patogni-cos e que entram em contato no s com osoperadores da estao, mas de forma geralcom toda a comunidade existente nas proxi-midades da estao (dependendo da veloci-

    dade do vento uma gotcula de aerossol po-de ser carregada a at 800 metros de dis-tncia). A tecnologia oferecida evita a ema-nao e disperso dos aerossis que aca-bam ficando contidos no interior das camp-nulas .

    Description:

    The present report refers to a conversion installation system of effluenttreatment and, specifically, to a constructive system to be adapted tosuperficial effluent treatment aerators in a way to create a watertight areaof pure oxygen injection and dissolution which, diluted in liquid means,will promote the required treatment.

    The goal of the present invention is to allow the conversion of effluenttreatment installations that were initially projected to deal with superficial

    aerators into an installation that allows the usage of systems of pureoxygen injection to obtain remarkable efficiency levels in the dissolutionof this gas in liquid means.

    It is known that the traditional superficial aeration process views obtaining,through splash action, a dissolution of the oxygen found in the air (in aconcentration of 21 %) in the liquid means to be treated, to allow anoxidation of this means achieving an OBD (oxygen biological demand)and an OCD (oxygen chemical demand), in foam activated process (live

    bacteria forming established flakes that need O2 to get energy to be fed).

    The biological processes that use pure oxygen demand highimplementation costs due to the necessity of installing new and specific

    equipments to such technology. In any process where oxygen must be usedto remove OBD or OCD, a high area of liquid gas is necessary and this isthe reason why there is a splash in conventional aerators, so that a better

    incorporation of oxygen, due to the microbubbles of liquid formed, isallowed.

    Another important factor for the gas dissolution is that the splash promotesa vigorous mix to dilute the oxygen in liquid means.

    Therefore, nowadays it is possible to view the process of effluent treatmentthrough superficial aerators that present as a main basis of work the

    dissolution of oxygen found in the air and the biological process that usespure oxygen. The first process presents inferior efficiency levels ifcompared to the second one, because this last one uses pure oxygen, whichis ideal for the effluent treatment to have excellent results. Despite theefficiency of the second process, it is also known that if it is applieddirectly in aerators of pre-existing surfaces, it will bring the need for largeinvestments in new installations, such as water treatment plants, because ifthis is not done the project will not work out.

    Then, the goal of the present invention is to provide the conversion ofeffluent treatment installations to be applied in previously installed surfaceaerators, including pure oxygen injection to promote, with total efficiency,a chemical/biological effluent treatment process. This goal is basicallyachieved through the placement of a cover above the liquid level where thesurface aerator is installed, so that this cover encloses the pure oxygen thatis injected in its interior, creating a rich atmosphere in oxygen, which, bythe splash action, will promote a slow gas absorption that will beimmediately incorporated and mixed to the liquid means.

    A conversion installation system according to the invention is essentiallycharacterized in that basically a chamber in the format of a cover device isenclosed, placed above the level of the liquid to be treated and defininginternally a watertight chamber of pure oxygen conditioning injectedthrough a superior entrance provided in the cover.

    Preferred embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependentsubclaims.

    For a better comprehension, the system will be described in detail, withreferences to the attached drawings, in which: Fig. 1 is a schematic view ofa kind of fixed surface aerator, containing the inventive system; and Fig. 2is a schematic view of a type of floating surface aerator, also presentingthis invention.

    According to the enclosed illustrations, a fixed or floating surface aeratorfor effluent treatment 10 receives the adaptation of a cover device 11 thatmay have cylindrical or square shape, depending on the necessity orfeatures of the biological reactor, without material restrictions, if it iscompatible with the effluent to be treated and with pure oxygen.

    This cover 11 is placed above the liquid level and it internally defines aconditioning chamber 12 for the pure oxygen injected through a superiorentrance 13 in the cover. Means of total sealing of the cover 11 are

    provided to avoid loss of the injected air - this sealing can be done bymeans of a mechanic sealing system, rubber rings or other similar ways.Being formed this way, the chamber 12 encloses the pure oxygen in itsinterior, creating a rich atmosphere in oxygen that, through the splashaction, permits the gas to be slowly absorbed and immediatelyincorporated and mixed in the liquid means.

    To implement this system it is necessary to observe the following factors :the gas must be enclosed to avoid its contact with the air before it isdissolved; the contact area of the liquid gas must be large enough to permitthe oxygen dilution in the effluent, and the mix must be sufficient to dilutethe gas.

    To place the cover 11 it must be taken into consideration the fact that theliquid cannot be in direct contact with the cover walls, because it wouldcause the growth of droplets, forming a film and damaging the gasutilization. Controlling pressure in the interior of the chamber 11 isimportant to avoid a variation of the liquid column in its interior and, thiscontrol can be done in several ways, such as: through the relief valve,controlling the pressure with a spring, counterweight or any other meansthat permit relieving the pressure in the interior of the chamber, or througha pressure controller that receives a sign of overpressure above adetermined value and sends another sign to a solenoid valve that interruptsthe oxygen supplying;

    or through a manual spheric valve, or similar, that permits relieving thepressure through a timer that stops the oxygen supplying by pre-adjustments.

    The system of oxygen pressure control can be fixed in the chamber 11 orin a remote way, being placed in the supplying oxygen panel.

    Depending on the installing features, perilous area, discharge control orany other that might be necessary, specific control devices as a manometer,thermometer, process controller can be used.

    It must be understood that this system can also be applied in othersituations, independent of effluent or water treatment, whenever it isnecessary to dissolve any gas in liquid means, provided that there is amixture system and a saturate chamber with the gas to be dissolved.

    Description:

    The present report refers to a conversion installation system of effluenttreatment and, specifically, to a constructive system to be adapted tosuperficial effluent treatment aerators in a way to create a watertight areaof pure oxygen injection and dissolution which, diluted in liquid means,

    will promote the required treatment.

    The goal of the present invention is to allow the conversion of effluenttreatment installations that were initially projected to deal with superficialaerators into an installation that allows the usage of systems of pureoxygen injection to obtain remarkable efficiency levels in the dissolutionof this gas in liquid means.

    It is known that the traditional superficial aeration process views obtaining,through splash action, a dissolution of the oxygen found in the air (in aconcentration of 21 %) in the liquid means to be treated, to allow anoxidation of this means achieving an OBD (oxygen biological demand)and an OCD (oxygen chemical demand), in foam activated process (live

    bacteria forming established flakes that need O2 to get energy to be fed).

    The biological processes that use pure oxygen demand highimplementation costs due to the necessity of installing new and specific

    equipments to such technology. In any process where oxygen must be usedto remove OBD or OCD, a high area of liquid gas is necessary and this isthe reason why there is a splash in conventional aerators, so that a betterincorporation of oxygen, due to the microbubbles of liquid formed, isallowed.

    Another important factor for the gas dissolution is that the splash promotesa vigorous mix to dilute the oxygen in liquid means.

    Therefore, nowadays it is possible to view the process of effluent treatmentthrough superficial aerators that present as a main basis of work thedissolution of oxygen found in the air and the biological process that usespure oxygen. The first process presents inferior efficiency levels ifcompared to the second one, because this last one uses pure oxygen, whichis ideal for the effluent treatment to have excellent results. Despite theefficiency of the second process, it is also known that if it is applieddirectly in aerators of pre-existing surfaces, it will bring the need for largeinvestments in new installations, such as water treatment plants, because ifthis is not done the project will not work out.

    Then, the goal of the present invention is to provide the conversion ofeffluent treatment installations to be applied in previously installed surfaceaerators, including pure oxygen injection to promote, with total efficiency,a chemical/biological effluent treatment process. This goal is basicallyachieved through the placement of a cover above the liquid level where thesurface aerator is installed, so that this cover encloses the pure oxygen thatis injected in its interior, creating a rich atmosphere in oxygen, which, bythe splash action, will promote a slow gas absorption that will beimmediately incorporated and mixed to the liquid means.

    A conversion installation system according to the invention is essentiallycharacterized in that basically a chamber in the format of a cover device isenclosed, placed above the level of the liquid to be treated and defininginternally a watertight chamber of pure oxygen conditioning injectedthrough a superior entrance provided in the cover.

    Preferred embodiments of the invention are defined in the dependentsubclaims.

    For a better comprehension, the system will be described in detail, withreferences to the attached drawings, in which: Fig. 1 is a schematic view ofa kind of fixed surface aerator, containing the inventive system; and Fig. 2is a schematic view of a type of floating surface aerator, also presentingthis invention.

    According to the enclosed illustrations, a fixed or floating surface aeratorfor effluent treatment 10 receives the adaptation of a cover device 11 thatmay have cylindrical or square shape, depending on the necessity orfeatures of the biological reactor, without material restrictions, if it iscompatible with the effluent to be treated and with pure oxygen.

    This cover 11 is placed above the liquid level and it internally defines aconditioning chamber 12 for the pure oxygen injected through a superiorentrance 13 in the cover. Means of total sealing of the cover 11 are

    provided to avoid loss of the injected air - this sealing can be done bymeans of a mechanic sealing system, rubber rings or other similar ways.Being formed this way, the chamber 12 encloses the pure oxygen in itsinterior, creating a rich atmosphere in oxygen that, through the splashaction, permits the gas to be slowly absorbed and immediately

    incorporated and mixed in the liquid means.To implement this system it is necessary to observe the following factors :the gas must be enclosed to avoid its contact with the air before it is

    dissolved; the contact area of the liquid gas must be large enough to permitthe oxygen dilution in the effluent, and the mix must be sufficient to dilutethe gas.

    To place the cover 11 it must be taken into consideration the fact that theliquid cannot be in direct contact with the cover walls, because it wouldcause the growth of droplets, forming a film and damaging the gasutilization. Controlling pressure in the interior of the chamber 11 isimportant to avoid a variation of the liquid column in its interior and, thiscontrol can be done in several ways, such as: through the relief valve,controlling the pressure with a spring, counterweight or any other meansthat permit relieving the pressure in the interior of the chamber, or througha pressure controller that receives a sign of overpressure above adetermined value and sends another sign to a solenoid valve that interruptsthe oxygen supplying;

    or through a manual spheric valve, or similar, that permits relieving thepressure through a timer that stops the oxygen supplying by pre-adjustments.

    The system of oxygen pressure control can be fixed in the chamber 11 orin a remote way, being placed in the supplying oxygen panel.

    Depending on the installing features, perilous area, discharge control orany other that might be necessary, specific control devices as a manometer,thermometer, process controller can be used.

    It must be understood that this system can also be applied in othersituations, independent of effluent or water treatment, whenever it isnecessary to dissolve any gas in liquid means, provided that there is amixture system and a saturate chamber with the gas to be dissolved.

    Contaminao Ambiental

    por Emisses deAerossis, Volteis e Odor

    Provocados por AeradoresBernardo Mauricio Bacicurinski;

    Engenheiro mecnico; especialista em meio ambiente;

    scio-gerente da Technion Consultoria

    Formao de aerossis

    O s aerossis podem ser definidoscomo partculas slidas ou lquidassuspensas em um meio gasoso (Cetesb,1978). As partculas, de tamanho va-rivel entre 0,001 a 1000 m, so es-

    tveis no mnimo por alguns segundose, em certos casos, podem permanecersuspensas por um ano ou mais.

    A palavra aerossol surgiu por vol-ta de 1920, em analogia ao termohidrossol, designao utilizada paradefinir uma suspenso lquida estvel.Apesar da expresso aerossol ser po-pularmente utilizada com referncia aprodutos pressurizados em embalagemtipo spray, o conceito cientfico maisabrangente, incluindo nesta termino-logia uma gama de fenmenos entreos quais fumaa, poeira, nvoa, nebli-na ou nuvem. (Cavinato, 1991)

    Os aerossis so produzidos pordois mecanismos principais: conden-sao e disperso.

    Nos produzidos por condensao,como neblinas e fumos, as partculas s-lidas formam, freqentemente, agrega-dos frouxos decorrentes da coagulaode um grande nmero de fragmentos de

    forma esfrica ou cristalina regular.

    Resumo

    altamente difundido o uso deaeradores convencionais paratratamento de efluentes domsticose industriais que, pela gerao degotculas de lquido, conseguem in-corporar oxignio captado do ar,permitindo a oxigenao do meiopara oxidao qumica de resdu-os, alm de fornecer o oxignio ne-cessrio para respirao dos micro-organismos em processos de lodosativados ou mesmo nos processosde lagoas aeradas.

    Apesar dos benefcios obtidoscom a aplicao de tal tecnologia,os aerossis formados no processotransportam a grandes distncias

    (dependendo da velocidade do ven-to) microorganismos patognicos,comprometendo no s a sade dosoperadores da estao de tratamen-to, mas expondo, tambm, toda apopulao local contaminaopela absoro de vrus e bactriaspelo trato respiratrio.

    Outros tipos de efeitos decorren-tes da atividade de aeradores adifuso de volteis e emanao de

    odores no meio ambiente.

    Os aerossis produzidos por disper-so resultam da desintegrao mecnicade materiais lquidos ou slidos, originan-do partculas com grande variao de as-pecto e tamanho, podendo estar isoladosou constituir aglomerados irregulares.

    Nos corpos dgua, a emisso deaerossis por disperso ocorre freqen-temente, seja por respingos ou por bo-lhas de ar que, produzidas por ondas, que-das de gua e corredeiras, se rompem nasuperfcie lquida. Durante o processo deaerao, a quantidade de gua aerolizadapode variar de 0,1 a 2 porcento do volu-me de gua movimentado pelo splash.

    As partculas de aerossol aderemfirmemente a qualquer superfcie decontato, sendo esta uma das proprie-

    dades que distingue os aerossis das

    Aerossis produzidos por condensao.

    Doenas podem ser transmitidas aseres humanos diretamente, atravs do

    contato com a pele, ingesto e inala-o de agentes infecciosos, ou indire-tamente, atravs do contato com obje-tos previamente contaminados.

    A transmisso de doenas atravsde aerossis depende de uma srie deinter-relaes complexas entre o pos-svel hospedeiro e o agente infeccioso.

    Estas variveis incluem:

    b) concentrao dos agentes infec-ciosos necessrios para uma infec-o inicial (dose infecciosa);

    trial possuem odor caracterstico dosprodutos que as compe, de formageral desagradvel, mas bem mais to-lervel que guas residuais de origem

    sanitria e que possuem odor caracte-rstico de gs sulfdrico ( H

    2S), gera-

    do por microorganismos anaerbiosque reduzem os sulfatos a sulfitos.

    Esgotos domsticos possuem 3-6mg/l de enxofre e derivados em res-duos orgnicos provenientes de deri-vados de protenas, mais aproximada-mente 4 mg/l provenientes de deter-gentes domsticos e 60 mg/l proveni-entes de matria inorgnica.

    Em lagoas facultativas os odorespodem ser produzidos em diversascircunstncias. Freqentemente, suaorigem provm da decomposio demassas de algas acumuladas pela aodo vento nas margens das mesmas.

    Eliminao de odores

    Em outros casos, principalmenteem lagoas pouco profundas, quandoa temperatura da gua elevada, ca-pas de lodo podem flotar do fundo e

    subir superfcie. Estas massas de re-sduos orgnicos acabam acumulan-do nas margens e ficando cobertas dealgas cianfilas. Em geral, a ativida-de bacteriana nestes casos intensa ea gerao de odor inevitvel.

    O grande desafio dos projetistas,operadores e tcnicos responsveispelas estaes de tratamento justa-mente tentar controlar os odores ge-

    rados pelas estaes, buscando solu-es e alternativas que diminuam seuimpacto ambiental.

    fontes de gerao de odor e suas prin-cipais caractersticas:

    Como mostrado na tabela acima,a maior parte das substncias gerado-ras de odor gasosa sob presso at-mosfrica ou possui alta volatilidade.A volatilidade mostrada na tabela

    por partes por milho (ppm[v/v]) e igual presso de vapor. O pesomolecular destas substncias geral-mente se encontram em valores entre

    30 a 150. Normalmente, baixo pesomolecular de um componente, impli-ca alta presso de vapor e maior po-tencial de emisso na atmosfera.Substncias com alto peso molecularso normalmente menos volteis eassim menor seu potencial de emis-so atmosfrica.

    O tratamento biolgico para abatimen-to de odores tem ganhado importncia nosanos 90, no s pelo baixo custo apresen-tado para implementar o sistema, mas pelaboa eficincia apresentada. Neste proces-so, o aproveitamento de reatores biolgi-cos (lodos ativados) vem crescendo ano aano e uma boa opo para estaes que

    j possuem estes sistemas.Os mecanismos de difuso do gsno meio lquido compreendem os se-guintes mecanismos:

    Absoro Dissoluo do gs nomeio lquido. Componentes res-ponsveis pela gerao de odor soinjetados na forma de gs no meiolquido. Elementos solveis emgua (tais como gs sulfdrico) so

    absorvidos pelo lquido. A capa-cidade de absoro do gs fun-o da rea de contatodas bolhas, tempo decontato e o coeficientede difuso do gs.

    Adsoro Componen-tes com baixa solubili-dade so adsorvidosdentro do floco. Algunscomponentes com altopeso molecular e baixasolubilidade so fisica-mente adsorvidos dentrodo floco biolgico, quedeve estar numa concen-trao de 100 a 2.000mg/l no meio lquido.

    Condensao Elemen-tos volteis a altas tem-peraturas condensamem contato com o meiolquido que est a tem-

    peraturas mais baixas.

    Oxidao Biolgica Consistena digesto de componentes pormicroorganismos ativos no floco eque foram inicialmente

    adsorvidos.Estes mecanismos so seguidos

    de digesto biolgica promovidapelos microorganismos existentesno reator biolgico.

    Os gases so recolhidos em suafonte de gerao e transferidos porsopradores a dutos que transportame injetam estes gases dentro doreator biolgico.

    Performance de remoo de odo-

    res utilizando lodos ativados:

    Como limitao da tcnica,pode-se apontar:

    1. aumento de carga orgnica no re-ator biolgico;

    2. a introduo de sulfetos (depen-dendo da quantidade) no reator bi-

    olgico, inibe a nitrificao e podeprovocar bulking (lodo fofo) no
