Understanding the impact of septicity on wastewater treatment

污水的运输会导致败血症的发展。这会改变污水的性质，并可能导致气味和甲烷排放的形成。不幸的是，化粪性对废水特性的影响以及这些变化是如何影响处理效果的还知之甚少。因此，这个EngD学生项目提供了一个令人兴奋的机会来探索污水处理的一个非常常见但大量未被探索的方面。这项工作将探索发生的变化，并开发出变化的角色的适当模型。其结果将通过实验室测试、试点工厂、现场测试和建模的组合，转化为对污水处理效果的影响。这项工作将与TOTEX分析、生命周期分析和稳健性联系起来，以建立实施的整体业务案例。

Transportation of sewage can lead to the development of septicity. This transforms the character of the sewage and can lead to the formation of odour and methane emissions. Unfortunately, the impact of septicity on wastewater characteristic and how such changes influence treatment efficacy are poorly understood. Accordingly, this EngD studentship offers an exciting opportunity to explore a very common but massively under explored aspect of sewage treatment. The work will explore the transformations that occur and develop appropriate models of the changing character. The outcomes of this will be translated into impact on the efficacy of sewage treatment through a combination of laboratory testing, pilot plants, site testing and modelling. The work will be linked to analysis of TOTEX, life cycle analysis and robustness to establish the overall business case for implementation.
