Abstract
Provided are an apparatus and a method for waste water treatment not generating excessive sludge, for which down-sized tanks are usable. The apparatus comprises an aeration tank where waste water to be treated is kept in contact with carrier particles in an aerobic condition, and a complete oxidation tank. In this, the liquid in the complete oxidation tank is filtered through a separation membrane and the resulting filtrate is discharged out of the system. The s-BOD sludge load to the complete oxidation tank is preferably at most 0.1 kg-BOD/kg-MLSS·day.
