    Sewage is wastewater from homes containing kitchen, laundry, and bathroom waste that contains solids, oils, chemicals, and pathogens; it is treated through primary, secondary, and sometimes tertiary processes using physical separation and microbiological breakdown to remove impurities and make it safe to release back into waterways or reuse; treated sewage can be recycled for non-potable uses through additional filtration and is a reliable water source.

    Sewage

    Treatment and Recycle


    What is sewage?
    Sewage is the wastewater originating in
    homes from
    • Kitchen
    • Laundry
    • Wash Basins
    • Bath rooms & Toilets
    • Floor Wash
    In one word, it is all the wastewater that
    comes out of homes / human use
    Where does it all go!
    Where does the When you flush the
    water from the toilet where does
    washer go? the contents go?

    By gravity flow, the waste is on its way


    to your local wastewater treatment plant!
    Sewage composition ….
    • Solids like vegetable peelings, rice, plastic covers etc
    • Oil & Grease from Kitchen / Laundry
    • Suspended solids from kitchen
    • Chemicals from detergents
    • Mild colors from laundry / food
    • Pathogenic microbes from fecal matter
    Physical impurities, dissolved chemical impurities &
    Microbiological impurities
    Wastewater Composition

    99.95% Water
    +

    0.05% Impurities
    ?
    Why treat wastewater?
    Hazards of wastewater?

    • 34 Lakh children die every year due to


    water borne diseases. 99% of this are
    from developing countries
    • That is every one child every 21 seconds
    • Water borne diseases originate from
    human execrate
    !!!
    Un-treated Sewage is
    a time bomb that can’t
    be de-fused
    Why treat wastewater?
    • Causes a demand for dissolved oxygen
    (lowers DO levels of streams)
    • Adds nutrients (nitrate and phosphate)
    that cause excessive growth
    • Stinks otherwise
    • Increases suspended solids or sediments
    in streams (turbidity increase)
    • To comply with Environmental norms
    Less than 10%
    of the sewage
    only is treated
    How is Sewage
    treated?
    Levels of Treatment
    Primary
    – removal by physical separation of grit and large
    objects (material to landfill for disposal)
    Mostly dead
    Secondary microbes

    – aerobic microbiological process (sludge)


    organic matter + O2  CO2 + NH3 + H2O
    NH3  NO3- aquatic nutrient

    - lowers suspended solids content (into sludge)


    To tertiary process
    Secondary process
    From primary process

    ir Aeration Settling
    iffuser and rapid collects sludge
    mixing on bottom
    Levels of Treatment continued
    Tertiary (advanced)
    – anaerobic microbiological process with a
    different microbe where O2 is toxic (more
    sludge)
    NO3-  N2 (escapes to atmosphere)

    – PO4-3 if not removed in sludge in secondary


    process
    PO4-3 + Al+3  AlPO4 (s) (into sludge)

    - aeration to strip N2 and re-oxygenate (add DO)


    From secondary process
    Tertiary process

    Effluent
    add methanol as food source

    Slow mixing Settling


    to keep suspended collects sludge
    and O2 out on bottom
    When the treatment is done…
    • Effluent back to stream after
    – Chlorination / de-chlorination and
    – a final carbon filtration
    • For re-use advanced filtration methods
    Ultra-Filtration
    • Sludge – very nutrient rich
    – applied directly to land as fertilizer
    – incinerated (good fuel after drying)
    – composted (good manure)
