1. INTRODUCTION
PLACE: - MELKOTE
In preparing schemes of water supply the duties of engineer are to collect all the
information that may prove useful for preparing plan and all the estimates of the project.
In the case of rural water supply schemes, Since the commutations are
generally small and poor and hence the various element of the scheme have to
be necessarily simple and comparatively cheaper requiring minimum skilled
supervision and maintenance .In the case, the sources are generally ground
water leading to special problems like fluorides, Iron, Sailing etc., One should
take of all these the problems while designing.
Water is a chemical compound and may occur in a liquid form or in a solid form or
in a gaseous form .All these three form of water are extremely useful to man, providing
the luxuries and comforts, in addition to fulfilling his basic necessity of life .No life can

exist without water since water is essential for life as air. It has been estimated that two
thirds of human body is constituted of water.
From the public health point of view, it is necessary that the water required for
their need must be invariably free from all type of impurities whether suspended or
dissolved in water and no risk should occur to the health of the public as a result of any
water contamination.
A public water supply or water works system has to be both from the point of view
of providing an adequate and reliable supply of water catering to all the public need
ensuring that the supply so made are not only portable but also fully protected against
every infection which might otherwise pollute water and cause outbreak of disease.
The planned water supply scheme should not only help in supplying wholesome
water to the people for drinking cooking, bathing etc.., so as to keep disease away and
there by promoting better health but it should also help in supplying water for fountains,
garden etc.., thus helping in maintaining better sanitation and beautification of
surrounding thereby reducing environmental pollution .The schemes should therefore
help in promoting wealth and welfare of the entire humanity as a whole.

I.POPULATION FORECAST
The recent population of a region is obtained by recent census figure and perspective
population as a result of growth, development, educational and industrial expansion etc..,
are estimated by followed methods.
Thus dp/df =k
DP=>kdt.
Where the suffix e and f represent the last and the first census
respectively. K represent average increase per census .This method gives
comparatively lower results.
In this method, a graph is plotted from the available dates between time
and population. The curve is then smoothly extended unto the desired gear. This

method however gives very approximate results, as the extensions of the curve
are done the intelligence of the designer
It is the annual average amount of daily water required by one person and includes the
domestic use, Industrial and commercial use, public use, wastes, thefts etc.., It may be
therefore expressed as Liters per captia per day (LPCD).
Per capita supply varies as per region and the people living standard in the
region.
For the rural area per capita should be selected as per the following criteria.
1) Where house connection are not contemplated and supply through hand
pumps or central stand post, per capita supply shall not be less than 40 lpcd.
2) Where the house connections are contemplated the supply shall be at
least 70 lpcd.
3) A minimum of 135-lpcd areas preferably 150 for all residence provided
with full flushing systems with modern sanitary.
The following order of priority may be given in the choice of suitable source among the
various sources available.
IV.QUALITY REQUIREMENT
The water required for domestic uses, particularly the water required for drinking must be
colorless, odorless, and tasteless. It should be free from turbidity and excessive of toxic.
The maximum permissible limits for physical, chemical and bacteriological standards
should satisfy the drinking water standard as given by ISI in the table shown.
These limits in table are ideal and safe for public supplies, therefore in village they may
not be followed rigidly due to the shortage of funds for treatment or due to

etc.., The pipes carry water to each and every house,roads,streets,while are controlled by
valves. Mainly in village water flow will be designed as gravitational so the pumping is not
required.
5. DESIGN PERIOD
The water supply schemes include huge and costly structure such as dams,
reservoir, treatment plants ,penstock pipes etc.., which cannot be replaced are
increase in their capacities easily and conveniently .For example the water mines
laid underground including distribution system cannot be replaced or added without
digging the road and disturbing the traffic .In order to avoid this future complication
of expansion the various component of water supply scheme are purposely made
larger so as to satisfy the community needs for a reasonable number of years to
come.
This future period or number of years far which a provision is made designing the
capacities of various components of water supply scheme is known as DESIGN
PERIOD.
Such a scheme which is designed for a design period of say X year is supposed to
satisfactorily serve the community need up to the end of x years .The design period
should neither be too long nor too short .The design period cannot exceed the
useful life of the components structure . Here the design period for water supply
scheme is taken as 20 year.
In order to remove the large sized and rapidly settleable solids to reduce
turbidity, it is proposed to construct a pre-sedimentation tank and raw water
storage.
Since the raw water does not contain too much color and odor, only nominal
aeration is proposed. This unit will help in maintaining the wanted oxygen levels in
water , remove dissolved iron , manganese, CO2 and H2S gases as well as color and
taste caused by volatile oils etc.
Chlorinator:
Considering the remote area and difficulty in transporting and storing the
chlorine gas cylinders, it has been decided to use bleaching powder for disinfection
by providing gravity type of chlorinator. Bleaching powder mixed clear water will be
fed by gravity into clear water tank where contact period shall be more than half
hour, which is the acceptable limit.
Trickling Filters
Trickling filters are now almost universally adopted for giving secondary treatment to
sewage. These filters, also called as percolating filters or sprinkling filters, consist of tanks of
coarser filtering media, over which the sewage is allowed to sprinkle or trickle down, by
means of spray nozzles or rotary distributors. The percolating sewage is collected at the
bottom of the tank through a well designed under-drainage system. The purification of the
sewage is brought about manly by the aerobic bacteria, which form a bacterial film around
the particles of the filtering media. The action due to the mechanical straining of the filter
bed is much less. In order to ensure the large scale growth of the aerobic bacteria, sufficient
quantity of oxygen is supplied by providing suitable ventilation facilities in the body of the
filter; and also to some extent by the intermittent functioning of the filter.
A filter does remove only a very small percentage of the finely divided suspended
organic matter present in sewage, while the majority of this organic matter
undergoes a change of character, only due to the biological oxidation and
nitrification taking place in the filter. Due to this aerobic oxidation and nitrification
that takes place in the filter, the organic solids are converted into coagulated
suspended mass, which is heavier and bulkier, and would thus settle down by
gravity, if allowed to dos so in sedimentation tanks. The effluent of the filter is,
The sludge withdrawn from the sedimentation basins contains a lot of putrescible
organic matter, and if disposed of without any treatment, the organic matter may
decompose, producing foul gases and a lot of nuisance, pollution, and health
hazards. In order to avoid such pollutions, the sludge is, first of all, stabilized by
decomposing the organic matter under controlled anaerobic conditions, and then
disposed off suitably after drying on drying beds, etc. The process of stabilization is
called the sludge digestion; and the tank where the process is carried out is called
the sludge digestion tank.
Three distinct stages have been found to occur in the biological action involved in
the natural process of sludge digestion tank. These stages are:
Sludge drying beds are open beds of land, 45 to 60 cm deep, and consisting of about
30 to 45 cm thick graded layers of gravel or crushed stone varying in size from 15 cm
at bottom to 1.25 cm at top, and overlain by 10 to 15 cm thick coarse sand layer.
Open jointed under-drain pipes (15cm dia) @ 5 to 7 cm c/c spacing are laid below
the gravel layer in valleys, at a longitudinal slope of about 1 to 100. The beds are
about 15 X 30 m in plan, and are surrounded by brick walls rising about 1 meter
above the sand surface.

It is clear that from the above equations 3x100parts of CaO3 will produce the same alkalinity
as that off 660mg of ALUM
Quantity of CaCO3 required to produce the same alkalinity which is equal to 20mg/litre
=>(3x100x20)/666=9.01mg/lit
Thus the above equation clearly states that 40 parts of CaCO3 produce by 56 parts of CaO.

This coagulant is dispensed using a dry feeding device. These are in the form of a tank with a
hopper bottom. Agitating plates are placed inside the tank so as to prevent the arching the
coagulant. The coagulant is in the powdered form and is allowed to fall in the mixing basin.
Its dose is regulated by the speed of a toothed wheel or a helical screw. The speed of the
toothed wheel or the helical screw is controlled by connecting it to a venturi device installed
in the raw water pipes bringing the water to the mixing basin.

Sludge treatment:
The sludge collected from the primary and secondary sedimentation tanks gets stored in a
large storage tank. From here it is taken to the sludge drying beds. Once the water from the
sludge drains into the channel after passing through the sand and gravel layers over a period
of one week, the dry sludge is taken out manually and transported elsewhere.

Providing a sand layer of depth 1.5m and a gravel layer of depth 1.5m, we have,

Hence, use a 70 cm dia manifold pipe laid lengthwise along the centre of the filter bottom.
Laterals running perpendicular to manifold (widthwise) emanating from the manifold may
be laid at a spacing of say 15cm. The number of laterals is then given as,
On the either side of manifold. Hence use 170 laterals in all, in each unit.
