The research about remodeling and collecting gas from Imhoff tank at Dalat’s sewage treatment factory Lam Vinh Son Faculty of Environment and Biotechnology, Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology (HUTECH) Address: 475A Đien Bien Phu street, Binh Thanh district, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam. Tel: 08 35120788 - 0903399800 (*) Email: lvson1610@gmail.com ABSTRACT The imhoff tank’s structure include the upper section is sedimentation compartment and the lower section known as the anaerobic digestion compartment. This tank is often used to process the sewage with high suspending oganic solids like domestic wastes. Anaerobic process in the lower section produce a kind of gas similarly biogas. The main purpose of this research is gas collection from anaerobic process of suspended solids in factory’s sewage. However, this collection must not effect to the processing ability of the model. With the inlet flow of model about 0,0217 - 0,0300 m 3 /h and the sludge retention time is 4 days, the processing ability of the model is: reducing 20 - 30 % SS, 40 - 50 % COD. When the Imhoff’s model get steady, it will be installed a gas collecting system. Gas store in model for 2 days has metan’s concentration about 5 . 10 5 – 7 . 10 5 ppm as percent volume of metan in gas compound about 50 - 70 %. The gas’s volume from Imhoff’s model is not steady, depend too much on the sludge retention time and the sewage’s temperature. However, this gas can realy use as a burning gas. Base on these data, the research make a plan to reform the Imhoff tank of Dalat’s sewage treatment factory for the collecting gas purpose. The reforming material is waterproof stuff HDPE Keyword : Imhoff, Dalat’s sewage, metan 1. INTRODUCTION The main purpose of this research is gas collection from anaerobic process of suspended solids in factory’s sewage. However, this collection must not effect to the processing ability of the model. 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS 2.1.The imhoff tank’s structure Imhoff one drawer deposition, the structure consists of an outside large tank with dimensions: 1m length, 3m width, 0.6m height. This is decomposed drawer of the model. At the bottom of the tank with two mirrors placed at an angle 30 o anh spaced 5cm. The purpose is to focused the amount of sewage sludge in the bottom of the tank. Above is a deposited drawer put in large tank. Deposited drawer consist of a rectangular part in the top and a triangle part in the lower (bottom of the deposited drawer). The rectangular part with dimensions: 1m length, 0.2m width, 0.15m height. The triangle (bottom of the deposited drawer) has specially constructed: one big bottom surface and one small bottom surface at an angle 50 o from horizontal plane. Two bottoms do not close, it has a 1.5cm gaping. With purpose is sludge from deposited drawer down to decomposed drawer. Besides, the width of big bottom surface loger than small bottom surface is 5cm. With purpose is to prevent the gas from anaerobic decomposition overflows to deposited drawer, affects the deposition. Figure 1: Imhoff tank model 2.2.Gas collection system Gas collection system is installed on the basis of sealed model’s two gas escape drain by two sheets of glass. One each glass is chased two holes to mount two gas collection pipes. According to the figure below: Figure 2: Gas collection system 2.3.The operating parameters Table 1.Imhoff model’s parameters Parameters values Units Outside large tank length 1 m width 0,3 m height 0,6 m Total volume 0,180 m 3 Working volume 0,150 m 3 Deposited drawer length 1 m width 0,2 m height 0,26 m Angle of bottom 50 o Gaping width of bottom 1,5 cm Width of big bottom surface 0,14 m Width of small bottom surface 0,18 m volume 0,0452 m 3 Decompo sed drawer Angle of bottom 30 o Width of bottom 0,15 m volume 0,1048 m 3 Sludge volumes max 0,07425 m 3 Sludge volumes min 0,05025 m 3 Gas escape drain Width of drain 0,05 m Length of drain 1 m Gas volume 7 l 2.4.The location of model and the method of operating The location of model: discharge – conditioning valve of Imhoff system tank’s input distributing hole in Da Lat waste water treatment factory. Model’s methods of waste water: method of gravity flowing. Model is placed negative down, so the water level in the distributing hole higher than model’s water level. From then, water flows from Φ 0.5cm pipes to model. Sludge from decomposed drawer will be drawn periodically out of model and poured into Imhoff tank’s escape gas drain. 2.5 The operational model Running model phase do not count the weight: the purpose of this phase is accumulated a part of sludge in decomposed drawer’s bottom in the running time model. Running model phase with count of determine weight: stabilize water discharge into model. Determination of water discharge into model and save sludge time. Running model phase with count of determine weight associated gas collection: started determining targets SS, COD in put, out put and installing gas collection system 3.

The experiment measured the volume of gas produced within a day is caried out in parallel with sludge drawn period out of model. To explain the difference between gas collected and sludge drawn period: There are two factors that directly affect the amount of gas produced in the model: + Temperature of waste water: exert an influence on microbial activity in anaerobic decomposed drawer. In the time between the end of May, sunshine all over the country. Therefore, high waste water temperature, so anaerobic microbal is activities strongly, great amount of gas produced. From early June and after, the temperature in Da Lat lower due to appear drizzle rain all day. Therefore, waste water temperature is lower these days, reducing anaerobic microorganisms’s functional capability, collected less gas. Results of sludge drawn periods in May will be greater than the amount of gas collected in June. + Sludge drawn in decomposed drawer: non-homogeneous between periods.It is caused by the deposition of sludge at the decomposed drawer’s bottom. Because of this reason, unable to drawn completely sludge at the bottom of decomposed drawer. Causes each drawing sludge is not the same and inhomogeneous. That’s mixture of decomposed sludle and new sludge from decomposed drawer. This percentage is difference from withdrawal sludge. So it has change in gas collected volume between of sludge drawn periods. 4. DISCUSSION With 4-day sludge drawn periods, the amount of produced gas is directly proportional to sludge saved time. Gas produced is significantly reduced when drawn sludge out of model. With 7-day sludge drawn periods, the amount of gas produced increased to a certain level and then gradually decreases. For experiments measured the volume of produced gas from model in one day with 4-day sludge drawn period, and data from the first 4 days of 2 experiments measured the volume of produced gas from model in one day with 7-day sludge drawn period, derived the volume of gas produced relatively on average a day from model to 4-day sludge drawn period: V gas medium(mh) = 7,573 l/day. The ability to remove COD and SS of model is similar to factory’s Imhoff tank system, derived the volume of gas produced relatively per day of imhoff tank system is based on the correlation of the influent waste water discharge. Currently, the average of factory’s influent waste water discharge is Q medium(nm) = 4500m 3 /day. The average of model’s influent waste water discharge is Q medium(nm) = 0.62m 3 /day. So the volume of gas produced relatively per day from imhoff tank system with 4-day sludge drawn period: V gas medium(nm) = 54,965 m 3 /day. Thus, factory’s imhoff tank system can produce 19787.4 m 3 gas average per year. However, sludge retention time in the imhoff tank system usually 7 days and the sludge containing volume is large (two deposited drawer imhoff has sludge volume – decomposed drawer large) so the gas produced volume in reality will be greater than the above figures.
