Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for removing suspended matter, organic matter, foaming matter and nitrogen compounds in sewage and to an apparatus for the method. The suspended matter and the organic matter are removed by means of first fine bubbles and the foaming matter is removed by means of second bubbles having a larger bubble average diameter. The sewage treated by the first and second bubbles passes through a bed of porous adsorbent polarized by the feed of current, so that nitrogen compounds and the organic matter remained in the sewage are adsorbed and removed. It is also provided with a step for removing the suspended matter and the organic matter remained in the sewage by means of third fine bubbles before transferring the sewage to the bed of adsorbent.
