WHAT IS WASTEWATER ?
Wastewater is any water that has been adversely affected in quality by anthropogenic influence and also
refer to any water that is utilized in an any processes is no longer considered fit for human consumption.
Wastewater is water containing wastes from residential, commercial, industrial processes. Wastewater is a
term applied to any type of water that has been utilized in some capacity that negatively impacts on the
quality of the water. Wastewater is not just sewage but all the water used in the home that goes to the drain
or into the sewage collection system of the wastewater. This include water from baths, showers, sinks, and
toilets . Small industries and business often contribute large amount of wastewater to collection system
In 1972 Wastewater regulations been effective amendments to the Federal Water Pollution Control Act
known as the Clean Water Act (CWA), established the foundation for wastewater discharge control in the
country. The CWAs primary objective is to restore and maintain the chemical, physical and biological
conditions of the nations waters.

CWA (2010) reported projected water demand in various sectors; During 2010-2050, Water demand for
Energy will increase by 26 times , Water demand for Industry by 5.3 times, Drinking water demand by 2
times of total in 40-years

Advantages of MECs
Uses Hydrogen and methane.
convert waste organic matter into a valuable energy source.
Hydrogen can also be combined with the nitrogen in the air to produce ammonia, which can be used to make
ammonium fertilizer which use for alternative to fossil fuel for internal combustion engines.

ANAEROBIC DIGESSION
Anaerobic microbiological decomposition is a process in which micro-organisms derive energy and grow
by metabolising organic material in an oxygen-free environment resulting in the production of methane
(CH4).
The anaerobic digestion process can be subdivided into the following four phases, each requiring its own
characteristic group of micro-organisms:
Hydrolysis: conversion of non-soluble biopolymers to soluble organic compounds
Acidogenesis: conversion of soluble organic compounds to volatile fatty acids (VFA) and CO 2
Acetogenesis: conversion of volatile fatty acids to acetate and H 2
Methanogenesis: conversion of acetate and CO2 plus H2 to methane gas
Potential Benefits of 100% Anaerobic Treatment
reduces energy requirement.
Produces more renewable energy as biogas.
reduces production of secondary sludge.
Wastewater reuse for agriculture and irrigation.
reduces bio-solids production.
