Wastewater Treatment Method And Apparatus

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a wastewater treatment process (200) and a wastewater treatment plant (1) for treating wastewater. The wastewater treatment process (200) comprises receiving wastewater for treatment. The wastewater is supplied to an electrocoagulation unit (91) to agglomerate solid matter suspended in the wastewater. The wastewater is supplied from the electrocoagulation unit (91) to a mechanical filter apparatus (15). The mechanical filter apparatus (15) comprises a static filter pack (75) for filtering the agglomerated solid matter from the electrocoagulation unit (91). The static filter pack (75) is composed of a plurality of mechanical filter elements 71 each having one or more filter cells (73). The treated wastewater is discharged. Alternatively, or in addition, the wastewater treatment process (200) may include introducing a coagulating agent into the wastewater. The wastewater treatment plant (1) may include a chemical dosing system (97) for introducing the coagulant agent.
