With reliable and cost-effective energy efficient blowers, the Rewatec DSAF sewage treatment plant provides a robust and efficient long-term solution, for larger projects where nitrogen removal is required.

Denitrifying Submerged Aerated Filter

What is denitrifying submerged aerated filter?

The DSAF process uses individual cells within the tank which are arranged in series, the wastewater flows through each chamber in sequence. Each cell contains a media on which biomass forms, and a fine bubble diffuser system feeds oxygen from blowers in the control kiosk to promote the growth of the biomass.

Denitrification is the process whereby nitrogen is removed from water. Denitrification treats water to reduce its nitrate-nitrogen content to potable levels.

 

Example applications

  • hotels and inns
  • leisure facilities
  • camping and caravan sites
  • schools
  • office buildings
  • industrial sites

Adaptable to suit your needs

The Rewatec DSAF sewage treatment plant comes in four variations, dependent upon population size and application parameters.

  • single tank
  • semi modular tank (two tank system)
  • modular (three tank system)
  • multi stream systems (bespoke application design)

How does the DSAF work?

The Rewatec DSAF sewage treatment plants form three treatment stages; primary settlement, biological treatment (biozone) and humus settlement. Flow through all of the treatment stages from inlet to outlet occurs through gravity and integral airlift.

A blower sends air to the bottom of the bed to provide oxygen for the biomass to support the oxidation process. The air stream promotes both efficient mixing of the effluent and disturbance of any excess solids from the filter medium. The denitrification process also significantly reduces the nitrogen levels within the final effluent.
