Trickling Filter NRC Formula in Excel Background
The trickling filter process is widely used for biological wastewater treatment all over the world. It is an attached growth biological wastewater treatment process. The aerobic microorganisms grow on a solid medium and the wastewater to be treated flows through the bed. A flow diagram for a typical single stage trickling filter wastewater treatment plant is shown in the diagram below. The diagram shows the typical flow pattern through the primary clarifier, trickling filter and secondary clarifier.
