المُلخص التنفيذي
المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذو الحواجز (Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (ABR هو عبارة عن خزَّان تحليل (تخمير) مُعدّل ، وذلك بإضافة مجموعة من الحواجز المُتتالية التي تتدفق عبرها مياه الصرف الصحي؛ حيث إن وجود الحواجز يؤدي إلى زيادة زمن التلامس مع الكتلة الحيوية النشطة (الحمأة) مما يؤدي إلى تحسين المعالجة.
تؤدي غُرف تدفق مياه الصرف الصحي من أسفل إلى أعلى إلى تحسين عمليتي إزالة وهضم المواد العضوية؛ حيث يقل الاحتياج الحيوي للأكسجين BOD بنسبة قد تصل إلى 90%، وذلك أفضل بكثير من إزالة وهضم المواد العضوية باستخدام خزَّان التحليل (التخمير) التقليدي Septic Tank.

المُلاءَمَة
من السهل تكييف هذه التقنية ويُمكن تطبيقها على المستوى المنزلي في الأحياء الصغيرة أو حتى في المناطق التي يُوجد بها تجمعات كبيرة، وهي مُلائمة جدًّا عند إنتاج كمية ثابتة نسبيًّا من المياه السوداء والمياه البُنّية. ويكون المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذو الحواجز) شبه (المركزي هو الخيار الأفضل عندما تسبقه تقنية لنقل مياه الصرف الصحي مثل شبكة الصرف الصحي البسيطة.
هذه التقنية مناسبة جدًّا للمناطق التي تكون مساحات الأراضي المتاحة بها محدودة، حيث يتم عادة بناء الخزَّان تحت الأرض ويتطلب مساحة صغيرة. ومع ذلك فإنَّ شاحنة الشفط يجب أن تكون قادرة على الدخول إلى تلك المنطقة؛ لأنه يجب إزالة الحمأة بشكل منتظم خصوصًا من حَوْض االترسيب.
يُمكن تركيب المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذي الحواجز في جميع الظروف المناخية على الرغم من أن الكفاءة تكون أقل في المناطق ذات المناخ البارد، كما أنه ليس فعَّالًا في إزالة المغذيات ومُسببات الأمراض من مياه الصرف الصحي. وعادةً ما تتطلب التدفقات السائلة الخارجة مزيدًا من عمليات المُعالجة.
اعتبارات التصميم
تتم إزالة مُعظم المواد الصلبة القابلة للترسب في غُرفة الترسيب الموجودة في المرحلة الأولى من المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذي الحواجز. كما أن هناك وحدات قائمة بذاتها على نطاقٍ صغير لديها غُرفة ترسيب مُتكاملة كما هو مُوضّح في الرسم، لكن عملية الترسيب الأولية يُمكن أن تتم أيضًا في حَوْض ترسيب مُنفصل أو عن طريق استخدام تقنية أخرى كمرحلة أولية (على سبيل المثال: خزّانات التحليل (التخمير) Septic Tanks). والتصاميم التي لا يوجد بها غُرفة ترسيب تُعتبر ذات أهمية خاصة في محطات المعالجة) شبه( المركزية التي تجمع المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذا الحواجز مع تقنية أخرى مُستخدمة في عملية الترسيب الأولية، أوحيثُ تُستخدم وحدات مُصنعة سابقًا خاصة لذلك.
عادة ما تترواح التدفقات ما بين 2 إلى 200 متر مُكعّب في اليوم. وتشتمل عوامل التصميم الضرورية على: زمن البقاء الهيدروليكي Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) ويكون ما بين 48 إلى 72 ساعة، وتكون سُرعة التدفق من أسفل إلى أعلى لمياه الصرف الصحي أقل من 0.6 متر/ساعة. تحتوي غُرف التدفق لأعلى (الغُرف ما بين الحواجز) على عدد من الغُرف يتراوح ما بين 3 إلى 6، والاتّصال بين الغرف يُمكن تصميمه إمَّا عن طريق حواجز أو أنابيب رأسية. ويُعتبر سهولة الوصول إلى كُل الغُرَف (من خلال فتحات مُخصصة لذلك) أمرًا ضروريًّا من أجل عملية الصيانة. ولا يتم - عادةً - جمع الغاز الحيوي المُنتَج من المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذي الحواجز خلال عملية الهضم اللاهوائي بسبب كميته القليلة، وبالتالي يجب تهوية الخزَّان للسماح بتحرير الروائح والغازات الضارة المُحتملة إلى الخارج بصورة متحكم فيها.
الجوانب الصحية / القبول
يجب ألا يتعامل المُستخدمون بشكل مُباشر مع التدفقات السائلة الداخلة أوالخارجة تحت ظروف التشغيل العادية. ويجب التعامل بحذر مع التدفقات السائلة الخارجة والخبث (الزَّبَد) والحمأة؛ حيثُ إنَّها تحتوي على الكائنات الحية المُسببة للأمراض بمُستويات عالية. وتحتوي التدفقات السائلة الخارجة على مُرَكّبات لها رائحة قد تتطلب إزالتها في مرحلة أخرى إضافية. وينبغي الحرص عند تصميم وتحديد موقع المُنشأة بحيث لا تُزعِج هذه الروائح أفراد المجتمع.
التشغيل والصيانة
يتطلب المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذو الحواجز فترة بدء التشغيل لعدة أشهر حتى يصل المُفاعل إلى المرحلة التي يُمكنه فيها المعالجة بكامل قدرته؛ وذلك بسبب بُطء نُمُو الكُتلة الحيوية اللاهوائية التي تحتاج أن تثبت أولًا في المُفاعل. ولتقليل فترة بدء التشغيل؛ فإنَّ المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذا الحواجز يُمكن أن يُلقَّح بالبكتيريا اللاهوائية، على سبيل المثال: إضافة روث البقر الجديد (الرطب) أو حمأة خزَّان التحليل (االتخمير(.
وهكذ يُمكن للكمية المضافة من البكتيريا النّشطة أن تتكاثر وتتكيف مع مياه الصرف الصحي الداخلة. وبسبب البِيئة الحيوية الحساسة؛ فإنَّه ينبغي الحرص على عدم وصول المواد الكيميائية القاسية وصعبة المُعالجة إلى المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذي الحواجز.
يجب مُراقبة مستويات الحمأة والخبث (الزَّبَد( لضمانعمل الخزّان بشكل جيد، ولا يتطلب هذا النظام عمليات تشغيل؛ لأنه نظام ثابت وبسيط، والصيانة تكون مُقتصرة على إزالة الحمأة المُتراكمة على فترات تتراوح ما بين عام إلى ثلاثة أعوام. ويتم تنفيذ ذلك بشكل أفضل باستخدام تقنية التفريغ والنقل بواسطة المحركات. تعتمد أوقات عملية إزالة الحمأة على خطوات المعالجة السابقة المُختارة وكذلك على تصميم المُفاعل ذي الحواجز اللاهوائية.
ويجب فحص الخزَّانات الخاصة بالمُفاعل من وقت إلى آخر لضمان كونها معزولة -غير مُنفّذة للمياه.

The city of Kuching is currently lacking a wastewater treatment plant, and the local subsurface conditions make a conventional centralised wastewater system expensive to implement. Most buildings are equipped with two separate wastewater outlets, one outlet for blackwater and one for greywater. The proposed system treats greywater from nine households, and consists of a baffled septic tank, followed by a dosing chamber from where the greywater flows into four vertical down-flow, single-pass aerobic biofilters before reaching a subsurface horizontal-flow planted filter. Finally, the treated greywater is discharged into a stormwater drain.
