Water treatment method and water treatment apparatus

Abstract

A water treatment method treats raw water (water to be treated) containing organic wastewater. The method includes (i) an aeration process performs an initial absorption treatment by aerating the water to be treated, (ii) a filtration process for filtering the water to be treated which has been treated by the initial absorption treatment in the aeration process, (iii) a digestion treatment process for digesting solids captured by the filtration process, (iv) a biological treatment process for denitrifying, with activated sludge, filtered water obtained through the filtration process, (v) a sludge transfer process for sending the activated sludge from the biological treatment process to the aeration process, and (vi) an adjustment process for adjusting an amount of the activated sludge sent to the aeration process via the sludge transfer process based on a nitrogen concentration of treated water which has been biologically treated by the biological treatment process.
