  3. 1 WHY WASTEWATER TREATMENT ? • Protect the environment from; • high loads of suspended solids & organic matter • eutrophication & groundwater pollution • Substantial load of hazadous and non biodegradable compounds • Serious contamination with microorganisms • …in order to • establish/maintain healthy environment for flora & fauna • allow mankind to use water resources for different purposes • prevent transmission of waterborne diseases/improve public health

  4. Definition of Safe Sanitation • Collection, Transport, Treatment & Disposal or reuse of human excreta, domestic wastewater and solid waste, and associated hygiene promotion Ref: water supply and sanitation collaborative council

  5. Pollution from human beings • 45-60 g BOD/person/day • 8- 14 g N/person/day • 0.6-2.5 g P/person/day • Virus • Medical residues

  6. Eutrophication & it’s impacts • Increase in rate of supply of organic matter to an ecosystem resulting nutrient built up (N, P) • Massive algae growth, anaerobic conditions, oxygen depletion • Changers in the structure and functioning of the lake and marine ecosystem • Reduction in biodiversity, fish and shellfish harvesting • Increase risk of poisoning by algal toxins

  7. DO Sag Curve Wastewater 7.83mg/l at 280C DOsat Distance (Km)

  8. Health Problems • In some areas in the developing world, 75 -80% of human illness is related to water and water pollution • Discharge of wastewater represents the greatest risk for pollution of potable water

  13. X-Ray Processing AgCl+NaOH AgO • Dental Wastewater (Amalgam) Ag, Pb, Sn • Radioactive Iodine Treatment Mutagenic • Full Blood Count Test (Cn) • Blood Urea Test • Total Protein Test • Albumin Test • Liver Functional Test • Cholesterol Test • Sugar Test • Skin Preparation (Salicylic, Benzoic Acid, yellow parafin) • Bottle Washing (Antibiotics) • Molecular Biology Research • (Ethidium BromideMutagenic) • Formalin (preservative for biological specimens)

CONCEPT FOR HOSPITAL Storm Water/ Rain Water To the Existing Surface Drainage System Kitchen WW Sewerage System Grease Trap Other WW of Domestic Nature Pumping Station Existing Oxidation Ditch & Settling tank will be converted to a Floting wetland Retention (As per CEA/AEA Recommendation) Effluent from Radiation Treatment (Iodine) Rat/ Mora WWTP Disposal as Hazadous Wastewater (GeoCycle) • X- Ray Processing • (Dark Room) • Dental WW • Laboratory WW Collection to Containers in concentrated form with separate plumbing system

  19. 3. Types of Sanitation Systems • On site sanitation systems (>90%) • Septic tank associated effluent disposal systems • Off Site Sanitation Systems (>2.5%) • Wastewater collection, treatment & Disposal • Decentralized System

  24. DRY COMPOST LATRINES • Environmentally friendly • Designed to keep the faeces separate from the urine and water used for anal cleansing • Is usually an elevated construction • Urine/water drained into an evaporative plant bed or a cultivation plot • To eliminate bad odour and nuisance from flies a handful of ash, lime or soil has to be sprayed into the pit Manual 1:Latrine Construction Technical Manual Series on Rural Water Supply & Sanitation NORAD-Helvetas Sri Lanka 32

  33. Problems in on site systems? Faulty design & construction of septic tanks Inadequate water depth for solid separation Failure in construction/water tightness Faulty design of soakage arrangements Seasonal high ground water table Presence of non favorable soils Presence of shallow rock Prone for flooding Overloading 41

SEPTIC TANK DESIGN FOR 5 PERSONS (DE-SLUDG PERIOD 5 YEARS) 1.1) Volume required for settling, Vs (All Waste) Vs = ts.Q Time required for settling ts = (1.5-0.3 log Q) days 1.58 = days Should be > 0.2 d OK Vs 0.88 = m3 1.2) Volume required for sludge digestion Vd (All Waste) Vd = qs. Td. P Volume of fresh sludge per person qs 0.001 = m3/day (for all wastewater) days Time required for sludge digestion td = (for an ambient Temperature of 20 0C) 33 Population equivalent for all wastewater p = Q(m3/day) / 0.2(m3/p/day) 2.8 = Vd 0.092 = m3 td =1853T-1.25 46
