Application of the integrated rainwater and wastewater system with public participation in the context of river restoration & climate change 2012-2013
10.000 m2 of land with 128 residential unit domestic wastewater, especially grey water, flows directly into river without any treatment process public toilet
Rationale • Deteriorating stream quality, (turbidity up to 59 NTU, phosphate up to 2 mg/l, BOD up to 5.39 mg/l) due to sedimentation, domestic waste as well as cattling activities at the upstream. • It is suitable for application of bio-eco engineering technology combined with combined wastewater treatmentto enhance self purification processes and carrying capacity of ecosystems
OBJECTIVES River restoration • Introduce community based Ecohydrology interventions for setting up ecosystem services Developmentof innovative models and its application as a pilot • To build a Demonstration site (with- site selection criteria and rationale) on stream restoration using bio-eco engineeringtechnologywithexpected outcomes. • Key components of the model that is to be developed: technology, policy measures, capacity building and stakeholder participations. Sustainability • Public participation, community based community empowerement
Bio-eco engineering applied water biota interplay as water management tools. • Availability of the resources • High reduction of BOD and solids (but low reduction of pathogens). • Water biota such as water hyacinth grows rapidly and is attractive, • Low to moderate capital cost; operating cost can be offset by revenue. • Potential for local job creation and income generation. • Can be built and maintained with locally available materials
Constructed Sedimentation Tank and Installed Biofilter
wastewater is collected in the pipelinessystem to the communal wastewater treatment plant. enhanced with constructed wetland
Lesson learned • Sustainable development with public participation sounds ideal • Is it easy? NO
Problems • Conflict of interest • Building trust • Culture, Attitude Change • Economically attractive? • Continuity, Sustainability
