Effluent Disposal and utilisation • Water body, land ( disposal ) • Reclamation ( industrial reuse ) • Reuse in agriculture, horticulture • GW recharge
SOLIDS( Raw sewage=99.9% water+0.1% solids) • Solids = 50% suspended + 50% dissolved • Solids = 70% organic + 30% inorganic
Sewage characteristics (Major Pollutants) • Suspended solids • Biodegradable organics • Pathogens • Nutrients • Dissolved inorganic solids • Waste + Oxygen Oxidised waste + New bacterias bacteria
Basic design considerations • 1.Degree of treatment (Water Act1974) • 2.Design period (30 years) • 3.Population (future population) • 4.Sewage Flows (Peak, Average, Min) • 5.Sewage characteristics
Basic design considerations (cont.) • 6.Effect of industrial wastes • 7.Effluent disposal and utilization • 8.Unit operations & processes for treatment • 9.Design of process flow sheets for treatment • 10. Choice of processes
Unit Operations and Processes • Physical (screening, grit removal & sedimentation) • Chemical (Coagulation, flocculation) • Biological [suspended / attached growth, aerobic / anaerobic]
Typical wastewater treatment process Pre-treatment Eg: physical/chemical treatment, solids separation Treatment Biological treatment Eg : aerobic/ anaerobic suspended/attached batch/continuous Post-treatment Eg:filtration, adsorption Discharge of clean effluent BIOREACTOR
Aerobic Biological Treatment Processes • Suspended Growth • Activated sludge • Oxidation ditches/ponds • Aerated lagoons, stabilization ponds • Attached Growth • Trickling filters • Rotating Biological Contactors (RBCs)

Activated Sludge • Process in which a mixture of wastewater & microorganisms is agitated & aerated • Leads to oxidation of dissolved organics • After oxidation, sludge is separated from wastewater • DT = approximately 6 - 8 hr
Trickling Filters • Rotating distribution arm sprays primary effluent over circular bed of rock or other coarse media. • Air circulates in pores between rocks. • “Biofilm” develops on rocks and micro-organisms degrade wastes as they flow past
