Abstract:
1. An apparatus for recovering energy from turbulence created within an aerobic-biological-reactor comprising: an aerobic-biological-reactor formed from a housing having an inlet pipe for delivery of wastewater influent there through, said housing having an outlet pipe for expelling reclaimed purified water there from, said housing containing liquid, an influent velocity equalization collector, an omni flow partition, a membrane biological reactor, internal air-diffusers and at least one paddle wheel, said at least one paddle wheel being located just below the surface of said liquid, said at least one paddle wheel being mounted on a free rotating rod, said air diffusers are located at the bottom of said housing, air is forcibly directed upwardly from said air diffusers resulting in production of air bubbles within said liquid, said air bubbles and said liquid are forcibly directed upwardly, said air bubbles collect upon rising until contact with said at least one paddle wheel, and upon contact said air bubbles with said at least one paddle wheel automatically turn said free rotating rod resulting in free rotational force that is transferable for use as free energy.
