CONSTRAINTS TO PRIVATE DEVELOPERS
(Contd.)
Therefore, it would be ideal if the Govt. plans centralized
STP (up to secondary stage) with private participation and
treated effluent can be supplied to each building with
proper metering and can be charged accordingly.
The end user can use the treated effluent after tertiary
treatment to suit his requirement.
Thereby the space requirement of end user reduces and
overall power demand as well as operation cost
minimizes.
Moreover sludge is being generated at one point and it
will be easier to handle.
If treated wastewater is to be used for toilet flushing,
separate system of distribution is required.

ACTIVATED SLUDGE PROCESS
Process:
It is mainly used by Municipal Corporation and
Government agencies where land is available. Fixed or
floating surface aerators are used. Diffused fine bubble
aeration is also commonly used.
Merits:
Most commonly used for treating large quantity of
wastewater.
Demerits:
In this method, where the liquid depth to be kept
minimum, needs more space. This plant should be
preferably totally above ground.
19 Sep 2006 15
Process:
Air will be induced to the aeration tank through surface
aerators or submerged diffusers fixed at the bottom of
aeration tank for longer duration.
Merits:
In this method space requirement is less due to higher
liquid depth. Quality of treated effluent generated is
comparatively better than activated sludge process. It
can be either above ground or below ground.

FLUIDIZED BIOREACTOR (FBR) OR
FLUIDIZED MEDIA REACTOR (FMR)
Process:
It is also a form of extended aeration but floating media
is issued in the reactor (aeration tank) to increase the
surface area.
Merits:
Space requirement is almost 60% of extended aeration.
Air will be pumped through diffused aerators. It can be
above or below ground.
Demerits:
FBR do not tolerate oil and grease for which
pretreatment for oil & grease is necessary and stringent
monitoring is also required.
19 Sep 2006 17
Process:
It is almost like FAB, but in this case media is in the
form of fixed corrugated blocks of PVC / HDPE / LDPE
material. Air will be pumped through aerators.
Merits:
Space requirement is almost similar to FAB. It can be
above or below ground.
Demerits:
This technology is also not tolerant to oil and grease.

MEMBRANE BIO-REACTOR (MBR)
Process:
It is a new technology with less space requirement. It is
designed to generate high quality of treated effluent. It
is almost like ultra-filtration.
Merits:
The space requirement is almost 1/3 of extended
aeration method. It can be above or below ground.
Demerits:
Main constraint is the capital cost and cost of spare
membrane. Overall cost will be almost 2-3 times the
cost of any other type of treatment plant.
19 Sep 2006 19
Process:
It is also a type of aeration method but the oxygen will
be absorbed from the atmosphere by the rotating drum,
which is partially submerged in the effluent.
Merits:
It can be above or below ground. Ideally it should be
above ground.
Demerits:
Ideally it should be above ground.
