3 Description of Manual The current manual is the first manual in a series of totally four manuals related to the Standard BioKube Jupiter system with pump well, settling tank and treatment plant. This manual concerns procedures and guidelines for installation of the treatment plant. Pump well and settling tank are assumed to be constructed locally. The total set of manuals consists of the following: 1: Installation Manual 2: Commissioning Manual 3: Service and Maintenance Manual 4: Trouble shooting Manual 3

4 General Conditions Introduction The Jupiter system which is designed to treat ordinary household sewage ranging from 100 to 600 PE. You may not lead any other water than grey- and black household sewage to the treatment plant unless specifically approved by BioKube Ltd. Maximum Load The BioKube Jupiter systems are designed to treat ordinary household sewage up to 600 PE. The Jupiter 75 unit can handle a maximum flow up to 125 m3/day. The Jupiter 25 unit system can handle a maximum flow of up to 60 m3/day. The plant allows for fluctuations in both concentrations and volume of the incoming water. However if the average daily load exceeds the designed performance, a larger system must be installed. Performance Level The performance of the BioKube Jupiter system in its different configurations are: BOD < 10 mg/l NH4< 5 mg/l (3 units) BOD < 10 mg/l (2 units) BOD < 25 mg/l (1 unit) Energy consumption during normal operation. Jupiter PE 300 PE 200 PE 90 kwh/year/pe Jupiter PE 450 PE 300 PE 90 kwh/year/pe Jupiter PE 600 PE 400 PE 90 kwh/year/pe Each person equivalent (PE) consumes approximately 150 to 250 ltrs per day and loads the system with 60 g BOD per day and 13 g nitrates Chemical consumption (optional) Where required automatic dosage of Poly Aluminium Chloride (PAC) ensures chemical precipitation of phosphorous. The yearly consumption of PAC is approximately 10 ltr per PE. The chemical tank is external and is placed next to the plant. 4

7 INSTRUCTION 2 Unloading the Jupiters The system will normally be forwarded in a standard 20 og 40 container to the site of installation. The tanks fit narrowly through the door opening of the container. It is important that precaution is taken during unloading to avoid impact and damage on the tanks and equipment. Jupiter Element Height [mm] Width [mm] Length [mm] Weight [kg] Jupiter Jupiter Jupiter To facilitate the unloading, the tank may be equipped with ropes on the side of the tank. These ropes are not to be used for lift of the tank, but only to help dragging the tanks out of the container. Recommended handling tools (not included) The safest way of transporting the system is by means of a fork lift. Either by use of a fork lift truck or by use of fork lifts installed on an excavator or on a front loader. Use long forks. The forks shall be at least 2 meters long. For any lifts we recommend to use heavy straps around the tank as illustrated to the right. Do not attach straps to any part of the tank, and do not use yellow ropes for lifts. To avoid damaging the plastic weldings during lifts make sure that the straps used are minimum 12 mtrs long and evenly distributed over the length of the tank. We recommend to attach the straps to a yoke (steel frame as illustrated) to avoid any deformation of the tank. (Yoke and straps are not included in the delivery) Notice: Never lift the BioKube Mars 2000 with water inside. 7

8 INSTRUCTION 3.1 Installation of Jupiter on-ground If specifically ordered, the Jupiter system can be installed on-ground. In this case, the tanks are equipped with reinforcing steel bars around the perimeter of the tank as illustrated to the right. Reinforcement is necessary to avoid any deformation of the tank subjected to water pressure. If you need to install the system on the ground, please note that it most likely will be necessary to place the pump well after the settling tank. Foundation for the Jupiter on Ground During operation the tanks are filled with water, and must be placed on load bearing horizontal, leveled surface with a maximum variation of +- 1 cm per 4 mtrs.. Surface must consist of either stable compressed gravel or 200 mm cast concrete slab built on stable soil. 8

9 INSTRUCTION 3.2 Step 1 Level the bottom of the excavation, make sure that the soil is stable and can handle the load. Depth of excavation: mm. Cast a concrete floor: Width: mm Length: (length of system mm) Thickness: 200 mm Concrete quality: 20 MPa Reinforcement: Ø10 mm bars per 200 mm 25 mm from bottom and 25 mm from top. Attach 600 mm Ø10 mm bars for each 200 mm at the tank perimeter to connect to reinforcement of walls. (Remember to vibrate concrete) Curing: Allow for min 8 days of curing during which the concrete must be kept wet. Place the Jupiter element on the Concrete floor after minimum 8 days of curing. Observe Instruction 2 for any lifts of tanks. Step 2 To keep the tank in position, fill water in the tank to a level of app 750 mm from the bottom. Construct the formwork for 200 to 250 mm concrete wall around the Jupiter tank. Use the Jupiter tank as the inner formwork. Respect in and outlet pipes. Concrete around the sides protects the Jupiter from buoyancy, gives strength and prevents deformation of the Jupiter tank subjected by high soil pressure. Concrete quality: 20 MPa Reinforcement: Ø10 mm bars per 200 mm 25 mm from external surface and 25 mm from tank. Attach the grid to the connecting bars from the floor. (Remember to vibrate concrete) Curing: Allow for min 8 days of curing during which the concrete must be kept wet prior to removing the formwork. Step 3 Follow the scheme below to determine the minimum height of the formwork and consequently the concrete walls. Mind the in and outlet pipes if you choose to cast concrete to the top of the Jupiter. For two or three tank systems, remember to cast concrete walls between the tanks using the tanks as formwork. Installation of Jupiter in ground Model Height of wall, no ground water pressure Height of wall, ground water pressure Jupiter mm mm Jupiter mm mm Jupiter mm mm 9

10 INSTRUCTION 5 The Jupiter Inlet and Outlet Inlet of Sewage Sewage enters the standard system at the pump well. Prior to the pump well, sewage must pass a coarse grid with a mesh size of approximately 25*25 mm to prevent damaging the pumps. Both coarse sieve and pump well are constructed locally. The pump well is meant to equalize any peak flows and should be sized no less than 25 % of the daily sewage load. If the max hourly peak load exceed 20 % of daily sewage, contact BioKube for advice on the required size of the pump well. The pump solution consists of a two pump system placed on pedestals and guider pipes for easy maintenance and service. The pump solution is normally supplied by Biokube. It is important to use vortex pumps designed for raw sewage. (For installation of pump system see instruction 6) The pump system secures that sewage is pumped through 50 mm pipes to the settling tank. The 50 mm pipes must be securely fastened to the pump well and the settling tank to maintain pipes in position when subjected to pressure during pumping. Settling Tank to Treatment Plant Sewage gravitates from the settling tank to the treatment plant through a 110 or 160 mm pipe according to scheme Instruction 1. The pipe must gravitate minimum 10 0/00 to keep the pipe free of any sludge particles. For systems with more than one tank the same guidelines apply for interconnection pipes. Outlet to recipient The dimension of the outlet pipe follows the scheme in Instruction 1. The outlet pipe must gravitate minimum 10 0/00 to recipient, pump well (if topography requires that treated water is pumped to recipient) or holding tank. 10

11 INSTRUCTION 6 The Jupiter Sludge Return Recirculation and sludge return As an important part of the treatment process treated water and biological sludge is recycled back to the settling tank. The recirculation leaves the side of the treatment plant through a 110 mm PVC pipe. Install the recirculation pipe so that the water gravitates back to the settling tank. Fix the pipe to the side of the Jupiter. And protect the pipes against impact and sun radiation to avoid damages and corrosion of pipes. Sludge return pipe 11

12 INSTRUCTION 7 Installation of Inlet Pumps In order to pump sewage from the locally built pump well, the two adjoining pumps are installed on a pedestal system for easy service and maintenance. Pumps, pedestals, guider pipes, brackets, expansion bolts for fastening, PEL-pipes and fittings are located inside the STP are located inside the STC during transportation. The main pump P1 is activated according to settings of the control unit. The emergency pump P2 is activated if water level of pump well increases above the max level (of the upper floater). Step 1 The two basic brackets must be installed in the bottom of the pump well. Step 2 Install the 50 mm PEL pipes to the basic brackets and connect to the inlet pipe for the Settling Tank. Step 3 Install the top brackets and the guider pipes. To fit the guider pipes to the top of the pump well, simply cut the pipes to the right length. Step 4 Install the pumps by sliding them down the guider pipes. Remember to attach wires to the pumps for pulling them up for maintenance. Pumps must be electrically connected to the electrical cabinet. If necessary pump cables can be extended. Brackets and expansion bolts for fastening are located inside the STP together with Pumps, guider pipes and brackets for pedestals. PEL pipes and fittings are located on top of STP during transportation. 12

14 INSTRUCTION 8 Installation of the Blower Rooth Blower Installation Biokube supply all pipes needed for the blower installation. Follow the illustration to the right to connect the air system of the treatment plant to the Rooth Blower. Steel pipe must be used to avoid deformations caused by heat. It is equally important, that the reduction from 75 to 50 mm is installed in the proximity of the treatment plant to reduce pressure loss as much as possible. Use the 16 mm hose to connect magnet valve to air lift system at the settling chamber of the Jupiter tanks Protection of blower and electrical installations We recommend that Rooth Blower, electrical cabinet and frequency transformer are placed in a locally constructed shed to protect the installations against wind, rain, dust and direct sunlight. In hot areas shading and ventilation is important to avoid over heating of the blower. 16 mm hose for air lift system connected to magnet valve Typical Shed for installations 14

15 INSTRUCTION 9 Installation of Float Switch System The Float Switch system serves the purpose of controlling the inlet to the treatment system. The Float Switch bar must be installed in the pump well next to the pedestal systems. The bar with the floaters are placed in the pump well. The bar is fixed with normal pipe brackets. The floaters are placed on the bar. It is okay to adjust the height of the floaters. the order of the three float switches must not be altered. Step 1: Fix the float switch bar to the pump well using brackets and expansion bolts. Step 2: Adjust the level of the three switches to fit the size of the pump well as follows: Floater no Floater no: 3 Floater no: 2 Name of floater Placement of floater Upper float switch Middle float switch located at the chosen maximum water level of the pump well. located at 75 % of the chosen maximum water level of the pump well.
