المُلخص التنفيذي
المُرشِّح اللاهوائي Anaerobic Filter هو عبارة عن مُفاعل حيوي ذي قاعدة ترشيح ثابتة Fixed-bed Biological Reactor مع غُرفة واحدة أو أكثر للترشيح على التوالي. عندما تتدفق مياه الصرف الصحي خلال المُرشِّح فإن الكتلة الحيوية النشطة العالقة على سطح مواد المُرشِّح تقوم بامتصاص الجسيمات وتُحلل المواد العضوية.
يمكن - بواسطة هذه التقنية - إزالة المواد الصلبة العالقة وتخفيض الاحتياج الحيوي للأكسجين بنسبة تصل إلى 90%، ولكنها عادة ما تكون بين 50% و 80%. كما أن إزالة النيتروجين تكون محدودة وعادة لا تتخطى نسبة 15% من النيتروجين الكلي (TN).

المُلاءَمَة
هذه التقنية سهلة التطبيق ويمكن استخدامها على مستوى المنزل في الأحياء السكنية الصغيرة أو المُجمّعات السكنية الكبيرة. وتُعتبر هذه التقنية مناسبة جدًّا في حالة وجود كميات ثابتة من المياه السوداء والمياه الرمادية. ويمكن استخدام المُرشِّح اللاهوائي للمعالجة الثانوية؛ لتقليل معدلات الحِمل العضوي من أجل المعالجة الهوائية اللاحقة، أو للتخلص التام من الحِمل العضوي.
تُعتبر هذه التقنية مناسبة لمساحات الأراضي المحدودة لأن الخزَّان يتم بناؤه تحت الأرض غالبًا ويتطلب مساحة صغيرة. ويجب مراعاة إمكانية وصول شاحنات الشفط إلى موقع الخزَّان لإزالة الحمأة.
يمكن إنشاء المُرشِّحات اللاهوائية في أي مناخ، ولكن الكفاءة ستكون أقل في المناخات الباردة. كما أنها ليست فعالة في إزالة المغذيات ومسببات الأمراض. واعتمادًا على مادة المُرشِّح يمكن تحقيق الإزالة الكاملة لبويضات الديدان. وعادة ما تتطلب التدفقات السائلة الخارجة من المُرشِّح المزيد من المعالجة.
اعتبارات التصميم
تُعتبر عمليات المعالجة الأولية والابتدائية ضرورية لإزالة المواد الصلبة والقمامة التي قد تسُد مسام المُرشِّح. تتم إزالة معظم الرواسب الصلبة في غُرفة الترسيب الأمامية للمُرشِّح اللاهوائي. وتحتوي الوحدات الصغيرة القائمة بذاتها على غُرفة ترسيب مُدمجة، ولكن يمكن أن تتم عملية الترسيب الأولية في حَوْض ترسيب ابتدائي منفصل )أو في تقنية أخرى سابقة (مثل خزَّانات التحليل والتخمير) Septic Tanks( التصميمات التي لا تحتوي على غُرفة ترسيب مُدمجة - كما هو الحال في - تُعتبر ذات أهمية خاصة لمحطات المعالجة )شبه( المركزية التي تجمع المُرشِّح اللاهوائي مع تقنيات أخرى مثل المُفاعل اللاهوائي ذي الحواجز (
يتم تشغيل المُرشِّحات اللاهوائية عادة بنظام التدفق إلى الأعلى (العلوي)؛ لتجنب خطر نزح الكتلة الحيوية الثابتة للخارج. ويجب أن يرتفع منسوب المياه فوق المُرشِّح بحوالي 0.3 متر على الأقل لضمان تدفق متجانس. ويُعتبر زمن البقاء الهيدروليكي Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) هو أهم محددات التصميم تأثيرًا على أداء المُرشِّح، ويوصى بأن يكون من 12 إلى 36 ساعة.
المُرشِّح المثالي ينبغي أن تكون مساحة سطح جزيئاته كبيرة لنمو البكتيريا، وبمسامات واسعة بما فيه الكفاية لمنع الانسدادات. وتضمن المساحة السطحية الكبيرة للجزيئات زيادة التلامس بين المادة العضوية والكتلة الحيوية العالقة مما يجعلها تتحلل بكفاءة. وينبغي أن توفر مادة المُرشِّح - في الحالة المثالية - ما بين 90 إلى 300 متر مربع من المساحة السطحية لكل متر مكعب من الحجم المملوء من المُفاعل، وتتراوح أقطار مادة المُرشِّح المثالية ما بين 12 إلى 55 ملليمتر. تتضمن المواد الشائعة الاستخدام في المُرشِّحات: الحصى، أو الصخور المجروشة، أو الطوب المجروش، أو الجمر، أو الحجر الاسفنجي )حجر الخُفَّان(، أو قطع البلاستيك المصنعة خصيصًا لهذا الغرض، وهذا يعتمد على ما هو متوافر محليًّا. ويُمكن تصميم الوصلات بين الغرف باستخدام الأنابيب الرأسية أو الحواجز. كما أن إمكانية الوصول لكل الغُرف - عبر فتحات الوصول - ضرورية للصيانة. ويجب تهوية الخزَّان بطريقة مُحكمة للسماح بخروج الروائح والغازات الضارة.
الجوانب الصحية / القبول
يجب ألا يتعامل المُستخدمون بشكل مُباشر مع التدفقات السائلة الداخلة والخارجة تحت ظروف التشغيل العادية؛ فيجب التعامل بحذر مع التدفقات السائلة الخارجة والخبث )الزَّبَد) والحمأة؛ حيثُ إنَّها تحتوي على مُستويات عالية من الكائنات الحية المُسببة للأمراض. 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 المُرشِّح اللاهوائي فترة بدء تشغيل من ستة إلى تسعة أشهر حتى يصل إلى المرحلة التي يُمكنه فيها المعالجة بكامل قدرته؛ وذلك بسبب بُطء نُمُو الكُتلة الحيوية اللاهوائية التي تحتاج أن تثبُت أولًا على مادة المُرشِّح. ولتقليل فترة بدء التشغيل؛ فإنَّ المُرشِّح يُمكن أن يُلقَّح بالبكتيريا اللاهوائية، على سبيل المثال: رش حمأة من خزَّان التحليل والتخمير على مادة المُرشِّح، كما ينبغى زيادة التدفق بالتدريج مع مرور الوقت. وبسبب البِيئة الحساسة؛ فإنَّه ينبغي الحرص على عدم وصول المواد الكيميائية القاسية وصعبة المُعالجة في المُرشِّح اللاهوائي.
يجب مُراقبة مستويات الحمأة والخبث )الزَّبَد( لضمان عمل الخزّان بشكل جيد، فمع مرور الوقت فإن المواد الصلبة سوف تَسُد مسام المُرشِّح، كما ستنمو أيضًا الكتلة البكتيرية لتصبح سميكة جدًّا وتنفصل وتَسُد المسام. ويجب تنظيف المُرشِّح عندما تقل كفاءته، ويتم ذلك عن طريق تشغيل النظام في الوضع العكسي )الغسيل العكسي( أو عن طريق إزالة مادة المُرشِّح وتنظيفها.

Anaerobic Reactors is the forth volume in the series Biological Wastewater Treatment. The fundamentals of anaerobic treatment are presented in detail, including its applicability, microbiology, biochemistry and main reactor configurations. Two reactor types are analysed in more detail, namely anaerobic filters and especially UASB (upflow anaerobic sludge blanket) reactors. Particular attention is also devoted to the post-treatment of the effluents from the anaerobic reactors. The book presents in a clear and informative way the main concepts, working principles, expected removal efficiencies, design criteria, design examples, construction aspects and operational guidelines for anaerobic reactors.

The International Development Research Centre (IDRC) provided financial assistance to an applied research project on greywater treatment and reuse for home garden irrigation in 25 low-income households in Ein Al Beida village, southern Jordan. The main objective was to help the peri-urban poor in Jordan preserve precious freshwater, achieve food security and generate income, while helping to protect the environment. An anaerobic vertical flow filter (AVF) and an anaerobic up-flow filter (AUF) were tested in parallel.
