Title: Haydee De Clippeleir: Innovator in Wastewater Treatment and Pasteurization Technologies
Introduction
Haydee De Clippeleir is a notable inventor based in Hamme, Belgium. She has made significant contributions to the fields of wastewater treatment and pasteurization, holding a total of 3 patents. Her innovative approaches aim to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in these critical areas.
Latest Patents
One of her latest patents is titled "Method and apparatus for pasteurization, hydrolysis and carbonization." This invention proposes the use of Thermal Hydrolysis (or Thermal Carbonization) at different temperatures and pressures in alternate waste streams. The goal is to achieve an optimal mix of high digestion rates and pasteurization rates while still achieving large viscosity reduction. The disclosed embodiments explore various means of combining Thermal Hydrolysis and Pasteurization, including placing the waste streams in parallel, placing them in series, utilizing heat input in parallel, and using heat exchangers in series. These methods aim to optimize hydrolysis rates, minimize the use of high-pressure tanks, optimize energy usage, and manage the viscosity characteristics of the solids.
Another significant patent is the "Method and apparatus for water treatment using screens." This invention provides an apparatus and method for selecting, retaining, or bioaugmenting solids in an activated sludge process to improve wastewater treatment. The screens can separate and retain solids based on size, compressibility, or shear resistance. They are used to select slow-growing organisms, faster settling organisms, or materials added to absorb, treat, or remove constituents in the activated sludge process. The present disclosure may be configured as an activated sludge system operated at different solids residence times (SRT) for different solids fractions, allowing slow-growing organisms to establish themselves in competition with faster-growing organisms.
