2. PROCESS DESCRIPTION
The treatment scheme can be divided into the following sections:

2.1.

Effluent Collection & Equalization

The effluent from the plant is conveyed to the ETP through closed pipelines. Near the ETP, all
the pipelines are connected to a common chamber. From this common chamber, the effluent
flows by gravity into the Oil and Grease Trap (T 01).
The oil and grease trap will be divided into three compartments, connected by an H-Pipe
mechanism. In the second compartment of the Oil & Grease Trap, the any free floating oil and
grease present will float to the top, under quiescent condition and will be skimmed off manually
at regular intervals. The effluent that is essentially of free floatable oil and grease will be
collected in the last compartment.
From the oil and grease trap, the effluent flows by gravity into the Neutralization Cum
Equalization Tank (T 02 A/B). The equalization tank will be divided into two compartments
The effluent will be collected in one of the compartment, which is sufficient to collect one days
effluent at present flow. Once one compartment is full, the contents of the tank will be mixed by
blowing air through the pipe grid at bottom of the tank.
The pH of the effluent will be checked and the effluent required by dosing acid or alkali as per
the requirement. Once the pH is adjusted, the effluent pumping is started from this tank and
the fresh incoming effluent is collected in the second compartment. An acid dosing tank and
alkali dosing tank are kept near the equalization tank for the purpose.
From the equalization tank, the effluent is pumped to the effluent treatment system by the Raw
Effluent Pumps (P 01 A/B). As a good engineering practice, 2 (Two) Nos. of Centrifugal Nonclog Type Pumps (1 Working + 1 Standby) have been installed.

2.2.

Primary Treatment

From the equalization tank, the raw effluent will be pumped to the Flash Mixer (T 03), where
the effluent will be mixed with alum and polyelectrolyte, in order to coagulate, flocculate and
thereby increase the settling of the suspended solids present in the waste water. The flash mixer
has been designed to give a retention time of approx. 30 minutes at final flow. The mixing of
alum and polyelectrolyte will be carried out by means of a mechanical mixer.

Project:

Effluent Treatment Plant

The alum and polyelectrolyte will be dosed into the effluent at a desired rate using the alum and
polyelectrolyte dosing pumps respectively. Two numbers of electronic dosing pumps are
provided for the purpose.
From the flash mixer, the effluent will flows into the Tube Settler (T 04). The tube settler has
been provided in order to conserve the space and promote effective settling of the suspended
solids. A PVC tube pack has been installed in the Tube Settler to increase the surface area
available for settling. The sludge which collects in the hopper of the primary clarifier will be
drained periodically into the sludge drying beds.
The clarified effluent will then flow into the aeration tank for further treatment.

2.3.

Secondary Treatment

The secondary treatment has been provided to remove the organic matter present in the
effluent, by biological action. The clarified wastewater flows by gravity to the inlet launder of
the Aeration Tank (T 05).
The purpose of the aeration tank is to provide suitable conditions for the growth of microbial
mass, called as the Activated Sludge & measured by parameter called as MLSS. The activated
biomass or MLSS in the aeration tank will degrades the organic matter (which is measured as
BOD/COD), in presence of oxygen and converts them to harmless carbon dioxide and water,
thus leading to reduction in BOD/COD.
This process can be represented as:
Organic Matter + O2 +Bacteria

CO2 + H2O + More Bacteria


(Waste Sludge)

The oxygen required for the Aerobic Biological Action is provided by means of a Diffused
Aeration System, consisting of Membrane Diffusers & Air Blower.
The MLSS in the aeration tank settles in the Secondary Clarifier (T 06) and the clarified
treated effluent flows into the Treated Water Tank (T 07). In order to maintain the MLSS
concentration at the desired level, the settled biomass is re-circulated back into the aeration tank
by the Sludge Recycle Pump (P 02) and the treated water is treated further, if required.

Project:

Effluent Treatment Plant

If the quantity of MLSS in the aeration tank increases beyond a certain level, a part of the sludge
is discharged to the Sludge Drying Beds (T 09) for dewatering and drying. The filtrate of
sludge drying beds is conveyed back to equalization tank.

2.4.

Tertiary Treatment

A sand filter and carbon filter can be provided, so that even the remaining suspended solids and
small quantity of organics present in the treated wastewater can be removed. For this, the
treated effluent from the treated water tank is pumped by the Treated Water Pumps (P 03
A/B) through the Pressure Sand Filter and Activated Carbon Filter and collected in Clean
Water Tank (T 08). From the clean water tank, the effluent will be pumped for gardening by
the Clean Water Pumps (P 04 A/B).

2.5.

Sludge Disposal

The solid waste generated during the primary treatment and the biological treatment will be
dewatered in the Sludge Drying Beds and then sun dried. The dried sludge will then be
transported periodically to the authorized solid waste disposal facility.

6. Aeration of Effluent in Aeration Tank


6.1.

Maintain air supply in the aeration tank continuously for 24 hours.

6.2.

Check whether the air flow from the diffusers is approximately uniform and at the given
flow rate, by adjusting Air Valve AV 01.

6.3.

Add Urea & DAP solutions in the aeration tank, so as to get COD:N:P Ratio of 100:5:1 at
the following ratesUrea

DAP
6.4.

2.0 Kg/day (for flow rate of 25 M3/day)

0.4 Kg/day (for flow rate of 25 M3/day)

The bacterial mass which develops in the aeration tank (called as MLSS) is normally
brown in color and flocculent (settles easily).

6.5.

The MLSS should be maintained between 3,000 mg/l and 3,500 mg/l.

6.6.

Ensure that the sludge from the secondary clarifier is continuously recycled back to the
aeration tank at a rate of 1 to 2 M3/Hr. The flow rate can be maintained by throttling the
valve V 09 on the delivery side of the sludge recycle line.

6.7.

If the MLSS increases above 3,000 mg/l, discharge a part of the MLSS from the recycle
line into the sludge tank (Sludge Wasting). For calculations, see item no. 6.0 of the
manual.

6.8.

During Commissioning :
6.8.1.

Do not waste any secondary sludge (MLSS) into the sludge tank, until the
design value is reached.

6.8.2.
