200 million people in China live without access to drinking water. meanwhite, industrial waste water has been polluting the limited water resources for years. Environmental protection is finally a priority and water pollution is to be stopped - The flip side of the rapid economy growth in china is contamination of air and water. Lake Tai in the Chinese province of Jiangsu has suffered from increasing pollution in past years, caused especially by urban waster water. Recently, teh city of Lake TAi has integrated a waste-water treatment system from jWater Technologies into its existing plant. The new system treats 30,000 cubic meters of waste-water per day and works with a membrane bioreactor (MBR). The waste-water is purified of solids and organic nutrients in several stages. It works by using bacteria in the MBR to break down the solids and nutrients.
ZeeWeed membrane bioreactor systems combine proven ultrafiltration technology with biological treatment for municipal, commercial and industrial wastewater treatment and water reuse applications. The membrane bioreactor system incorporates reinforced hollow fiber membranes specifically designed to meet the requirements of wastewater treatment. Membrane bioreactor systems replace conventional treatment and combine clarification, aeration and filtration into a simple and cost-effective process that reduces capital and operating costs. The result is consistent, high quality effluent suitable for any discharge or reuse application.
A derivative of this approach can be used in Africa particularly in the countries that we look to establish as homeland for Black Americans. Clean drinking water is a growing problem in almost every country in Africa. As the population grows and industry that we bring to Africa increase, waste water treatment is one of the major projects that we bring to Africa because good health and good drinking water is directly related.
