Micro-Project Report

Name of Programme: Information Technology


Academic Year: 2021-22 Semester: IF-5-I
Name of Course: Environmental Studies Course code: 22511

1. Title of Micro-Project: Visit of Water Treatment Plant: Visit water treatment


plant and prepare report on various units of water treatment and its management. 
1.0 Rationale:

The information and practical knowledge about the physio-chemical treatment


of waste water and components used in treatment plant. Water treatment removes
contaminants and undesirable components, or reduces their concentration so that the
water becomes fit for its desired end-use. This treatment is crucial to human health
and allows humans to benefit from both drinking and irrigation use.
2.0 Aim /Benefits of Micro-Project:

Our main purpose for this visit is to be familiar with industrial environment and
to get practical knowledge of water treatment plant components.

3.0 Course Outcomes achieved (COs):


We get the information and practical knowledge about the physio-chemical
treatment of waste water and components used in treatment plant.

4.0 Literature Review:

Jetpur Dyeing and Printing Association have set up a Common Effluent


Treatment Plant [CETP] at their location in Jetpur, Gujarat, India. The association has
set up a common effluent treatment plant to treat the effluent arising from around 200
washing Ghats. The CETP consisting of physico-chemical treatment is designed and
commissioned by CA to treat 2000 cu.m/day of effluent with inlet BOD 180 mg/L.
The total cost of these textile industries project was Rs. 3 Millions and the plant was
successfully commissioned in 1991 to give treated effluent BOD < 100 mg/L.

5.0 Actual Methodology followed:

• The project work is distributed among the group members as per the group
discussion.
• After finding all information and data starting work on project by all group
members.
• On the basis of information we explain all topics of the project.
• Finally, all the information and data we present in the form of the project.
• After that we show our work and project to our teacher and submit the project and
report.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Nilima mam who gave us a great guidance regarding training and instructed
us the importance of training in civil field. So I decided to take visit in water
treatment plant which is situated in jetpur.

I especially thankful to Mr. Gondaliya, the in charge officer of water


treatment plant because he granted us permission for taking visit at treatment
plant and gave the proper guidance to me and allow to visit for the practical
based approach learning to student.
GENERAL INFORMATION

Jetpur Dyeing and Printing Association have set up a Common Effluent


Treatment Plant [CETP] at their location in Jetpur, Gujarat, India. The
association has set up a common effluent treatment plant to treat the effluent
arising from around 200 washing Ghats. The CETP consisting of physico-
chemical treatment is designed and commissioned by CA to treat 2000
cu.m/day of effluent with inlet BOD 180 mg/L. The total cost of these textile
industries project was Rs. 3 Millions and the plant was successfully
commissioned in 1991 to give treated effluent BOD < 100 mg/L.

PURPOSE OF VISIT

Our main purpose for this visit is to be familiar with industrial environment
and to get practical knowledge of water treatment plant components.

Also in 6th semester subject like water and waste water engineering requires
knowledge about how polluted water is being treated, so it is very much
convenient to see all the practical and components in real time work
environment.
WHAT WE LEARN?

On 7th December, 2020 (Tuesday) at 09:30 a.m. we reached at common


effluent treatment plant at jetpur. The visit started from the initial tank where
the waste water of city and industries is collected. Then that flow is collected
from the inlet pipe and removes the larger solid inorganic material such as
paper, plastic, etc. by the rotating chamber.

Mr. Gondaliya, the incharge officer of water treatment plant guided all the
students about the entire process of water treatment plant.

First unit of water treatment plant is screening Mr. Gondaliya the incharge
officer of water treatment plant provide basic information about screening
process of waste water treatment plant.
The collected waste water is transported to Preliminary treatment chamber;
wastewater is then passed through a primary sedimentation tank where solid
particles of organic material are removed from the suspension by gravity
settling. The resultant settled primary sludge is raked to the centre of the tank
where it is concentrated and pumped away for further treatment.
The next step of the treatment process is secondary clarifier. The water from
the primary tank is transported to the secondary clarifier for adding chemicals
such as lime and alum to reduce the PH of water.
The next stage is a biological process which breaks down dissolved and
suspended organic solids by using naturally occurring micro-organisms. It is
called the activated sludge process.

The settled wastewater enters aeration tanks where air is blown into the liquid
to provide oxygen for mixing and to promote the growth of micro-organisms.
The “active biomass” uses the oxygen and consumes organic pollutants and
nutrients in the wastewater to grow and reproduce.
Some of this sludge is recycled to the inlet of the aeration tank to maintain the
biomass, hence the name for the process – activated sludge. The remainder is
pumped to anaerobic digesters for further treatment.

All the students were in hurry and in excitement for knowing the next steps of
water treatment. The next steps for wastewater treatment plants use
disinfection for tertiary treatment to reduce pathogens, which are micro-
organisms which can pose a risk to human health. The sludge is passed to the
sludge handling system which contains 20% sludge and 80% water.
Now again to remove the sludge particles the water is passed through the belt
filter press.

The purified water is obtained by chemically treating the water coming out of
the belt filter press.
Mr. Gondaliya has little smile on his face by watching full of attention of all
students and then he explains the detail process of tertiary treatment.

In which Chlorine is usually dosed into the treated wastewater stream for
disinfection. However, uses large ponds in which sunlight and other micro-
organisms reduce the pathogens.

Although the PH of water is reduced and sludge content and other impurities
are removed, still water is not obtained in purified form as it contains the
coloured water.
CONCLUSION

From this visit, I get the information and practical knowledge about the
physio-chemical treatment of waste water and components used in treatment
plant. Some test should be performing for general discussion with experts in
the industry.
