DEFINITIONS
Suggest presenting a list of abbreviations and acronyms used
Effluent: the wastewater that flows out of a treatment system (in this case septic tank) or
supernatant liquid discharged from the septic tank.
Pit Latrine: Latrine with a pit for collection and decomposition of excreta and from which
liquid infiltrates into the surrounding soil.
Pour-flush Latrine: Latrine that depends for its operation of small quantities of water,
poured from a container by hand, to flush away feces from the point of defecation.
Septic Tank: An underground tank that treats wastewater by a combination of solids settling
and anaerobic digestion. The effluents may be discharged into soak pits or small-bore
sewers, and the solids have to be pumped out periodically.
Sludge: Sludge is the settled solid matter in semi-solid condition – it is usually a mixture of
solids and water deposited on the bottom of septic tanks, ponds, etc. The term sewage
sludge is generally used to describe residuals from centralized wastewater treatment, while
the term septage is used to describe the residuals from septic tanks.
Faecal sludge: Faecal sludge is the solid or settled contents of pit latrines and septic tanks.
Faecal sludge differs from sludge produced in municipal wastewater treatment plants.
Faecal sludge characteristics can differ widely from household to household, from city to city,
and from country to country. The physical, chemical and biological qualities of faecal sludge
are influenced by the duration of storage, temperature, intrusion of groundwater or surface
water in septic tanks or pits, performance of septic tanks, and tank emptying technology and
pattern.
Septage: Faecal sludge produced in septic tanks.
Sullage: Domestic dirty water not containing excreta. Sullage is also called grey water.
Scum: Scum is the extraneous or impure matter like oil, hair, grease and other light material
that floats at the surface of the liquid, while the digested sludge is stored at the bottom of the
septic tank.

CHAPTER:1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Ministry of Urban Development, Government of India has launched Atal Mission
for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) project with an objective to
provide basic services (e.g. water supply, sewerage, urban transport) to households
and build amenities in cities that will directly improve the quality of life, especially the
poor. The Mission guidelines of AMRUT is to
 Ensure that every household has access to a tap with assured supply of
water and a sewerage connection;
 Increase the amenity value of cities by developing greenery and well
maintained open spaces (e.g. parks); and
 Reduce pollution by switching to public transport or by constructing facilities
for non-motorized transport (ex. walking and cycling).
Indicators and standards have been prescribed by the Ministry of Urban Development
(MoUD) in the form of Service Level Benchmarks (SLBs). The existing Service Level
Benchmarks and the improvements anticipated by the implementation of Amrut
Schemes in the project cities have already been addressed in the SAAP (State Annual
Action Plan) report prepared and submitted by GoAP to GoI (SAAP 2016-17 report
submitted by GoAP has been approved by GoI in August 2016). This study is a step
taken in the direction of SAAP / SLIP implementation program for ‘Adoni Municipality
having a population of about 1.66 Lakhs (as per 2011 census).
The basic objective of this assignment is to provide direct assistance to ULBs /

APUFIDC / Urban Development Department of the State to ensure; effective
coordination and implementation of the program are taken up under urban
development initiatives.
1.1.1 NECESSITY OF THE PROJECT
The year 2011 population of Adoni Municipality is about 1.66 Lakhs and for Base year
2018 population is about 1.79 Lakhs. Clear water demand for the base year 2018 is
about 30.80 MLD. At present, there are two WTPs of 18.00 MLD and 8.62 MLD for
Adoni Municipality. About 17.5 MLD of wholesome water is being supplied to the public
through well placed water supply installations. The total amount of 2018 sewage
generated in the city from all sources is estimated to be about 22.04 MLD.
Andhra Pradesh Urban Finance & 15 PDMC for Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and
Infrastructure Development Corporation Urban transformation (AMRUT) Report
Based on the city topography, Adoni is divided into 4 Sewerage Zones. There is no
sewerage and sewage treatment plant in the town. Sewage generated from these
areas is being discharged to nearest natural drains without any treatment thus polluting
the natural water bodies and the ground water table.
In order to prevent this, a sewage treatment plant of 5 MLD capacity is proposed for
Zone-III to treat the sewage flows generated from the zone as per the prevailing
standards.
As there is no sewerage existing in the town, the required flow of natural Avvadhoddi
Vanka drain will be diverted through overflow weir. This project will help in addressing
the Environmental degradations and improving the quality of life of the people and
surrounding to a large extent.
This DPR is prepared to meet the intended objective of SAAP 2016-20; obtain
necessary approvals from SLTC / SHPC and implement the project in the city as per
Amrut Mission Guidelines.
1.1.2 OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

The objective of this project is to prepare a DPR for construction of 5 MLD STP and
Overflow Weir arrangement to get the sewage at the inlet of Pumping station so that
the wastewater generated in zone III are treated and disposed off to the natural water
bodies without creating Environmental issues.
1.1.3 SCOPE OF WORK
The scope of work includes
 Carrying out Flow measurement survey for the proposed STP capacities along the
natural drains to meet the intended objective of the city.
 Prepare necessary designs, drawings, BOQ including cost estimates for obtaining
necessary approvals from the concerned authorities.
 Preparation of tender documents for the project components including tender
evaluation, negotiation and implementation of the project in the role of PDMC
(Project Development and Management Consultants).
1.1.4 INPUT DATA AVAILABLE

Reconnaissance and Field Investigations are carried out to collect the information on
the existing details of the wastewater disposal from various government authorities for
the present project. It is required to carry out the Topographical survey and
geotechnical investigations in the project area to find salient soil classification
properties and soil structural properties. As the scope and objective of study and
project report confined to only sewage treatment plant and interceptor drain (as per
SAAP approval from year 2016-20) no detailed filed investigations and surveys are
carried out in present study. Required filed investigations and surveys needs to be
carried out by the EPC contractor before execution. With design horizon of 2048 this
DPR has been prepared.
1.2 BACKGROUND OF CITY

Adoni is city and a Municipality in Adoni district of the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.
It is located at the border of Adoni district and Kadapa district. The Adoni fort is central
to the town's history. In the 15th century and early to mid 16th century, Adoni was a fort
town of the Vijayanagara Empire. It was held by the kinsmen of Aliya Rama Raya, a
powerful aristocrat of the Vijayanagara. From approximately 1558, at the decline of the
Vijayanagara Empire, control of Adoni came to Ali Adil Shah I (1558–1579), the fifth
Sultan of the Bijapur Sultanate.
Under the influence of British colonialism in the 20th century, Southern Indian was
divided into several administrative districts; Adoni fell into the district of Bellary. In
1867, the Adoni and the Bellary Municipal Councils were created. Between 1876 and
1878, a severe El Nino famine affected Adoni and the surrounding areas lost nearly
one third of the population. In 1953, after the linguistic reorganisation of the states,
Adoni gained its present seat as part of Andhra Pradesh. The city spreads over an
area of 32.71 km2. Adoni is well connected by rail and roads.
1.3 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE CITY
1.3.1 CITY PROFILE
The Adoni Municipality spreads over an area of 32.71 sq.kms. It is a Municipality and
headquarters of Adoni Mandal under the administration of Adoni Revenue Division. It
is the 16th most populous city in the state of Andhra Pradesh. Adoni is located about
84kms from Kurnool. There are total 41 wards in the city. The location of the city is

CHAPTER:2 EXISTING SYSTEM
2.1 INTRODUCTION
The main source of water for Adoni Town is Tungabhadra Project (TBP) Low Level
Canal (LLC) which passes the city at about 8km from the town and runs for 6 months in
a year. One summer storage (SS) tank with a capacity of 1217ML (Ramjala- natural
tank whos catchment is about 7SqKM in which Gangalamanchi is the main drainage
area for this tank) and another SS Tank of 3110ML at Basapuram are being utilized for
the remaining 6 months during canal closure periods.
Raw water from SS Tank flows by gravity to Basapuram WTP. The treated water is
pumped into 8 ESR in different zones of the city. The raw water to Ramajala WTP is
pumped from Intake located on LLC canal at Basapuram along with tapping
arrangement directly leading to Ramjala water body. The treated water from Ramjala
WTP is supplied to 3 ESR (to the nearby areas of Ramjala) by combination of gravity/
pumping.
2.2 WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM
The Adoni City has two water treatment plants, 18.00 MLD and 8.62 MLD. Raw water
from canals or natural pond is fed to these WTPs located in the city. The 18.00 MLD
WTP is located at Basapuram and the 8.62 MLD WTP is located at Ramjala. There is
also tapping arrangement for taking raw water directly from the pumping main (leading
from the LLC Intake at Basapuram) to the WTP (for Ramjala WTP), inside the campus.
Raw water pumping system provided in Table 2-1.

The city has a water supply distribution system covering some part of the area. The
existing length of the distribution system is about 42 km which amounts to about 26%
coverage.
Andhra Pradesh Urban Finance & PDMC for Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and
Page 22
In order to achieve the above objective, GoAP in its SAAP 2016-20 program, has
approved a water supply project to Adoni Municipal Corporation for an estimated project
cost of 16 crores.
The project proposals are in accordance with the guidelines issued by GoI, GoAP and
CPHEEO manual on Water Supply and Treatment & Practical Hand Book on Public
Health Engineering and various other relevant codes of BIS as applicable.
2.3 SEWERAGE
Main objective of any town in wastewater system involves proper collection of sewage
from the individual households, conveyance to the STP locations by gravity / pumping
and treating the sewage as per the standards. The treatment shall include removal of
contaminants from wastewater, by physical, chemical and biological processes and
produce environmentally safe treated effluent in accordance with CPHEEO / APPCB /
CPCB norms before disposing it into the natural water bodies.
2.4 EXISTING SEWERGE SYSTEM
At Present, there is no existing Sewage Network in Adoni town including Sewage

treatment plant. Open drain system is available for discharge of both sullage and storm
water. Figure 2-1 shows open drains in Adoni.
Figure 2-1: Existing open drain in Adoni
Page 23
There is no sewage treatment plant in the town. The generated sewage is getting
discharged to the nearby open areas and to water bodies untreated. There is no
systematic and organized method to collect and treat the waste from septic tanks. These
sceptic tanks are emptied by the individual house owners on their own using private
players.
2.5 CURRENT SITUATION OF SEPTAGE MANAGEMENT
The existing Septage management in Adoni is similar to that of the management of septic
tanks found in other small and medium cities in other parts of India. Majority of the
Septage sludge is disposed off into the land fill sites outside the city limits by private
players where as the supernatant of septic tanks flows all along the road side drains
before joining to the natural water bodies.
In Adoni town, there is no organized method to collect and treat waste from septic tanks.
The periodicity of cleaning of these septic tanks is approximately once in 1-3 years. The
overflows of these septic tanks are let out into the open drains system which ultimately
joins the natural nala / open fields.
Schematic representation of the existing Septage management in Adoni is provided in

Figure 2-3.
Figure 2-2: Septage management in Adoni
2.6 ANALYSIS OF EXISTING SYSTEM
Existing system of open drainage is found in the town. These few open drains are
constructed and maintained by the Municipality. These drains are constructed without
any systematic method of disposal and these drains discharges here and there in the
town leading to eutrophication of water bodies. There is no systematic and organized
method to collect and treat waste from septic tank. The Septage from septic tanks in the
Page 24
town are being conveyed through gulfars and disposed on to the nearby fields. The
duration of cleaning of septic tanks will be around annually. The overflows of septic
tanks are disposed into the nearby drains or open fields. Hence efforts have to be made
to treat this waste water suitably and dispose off in an environmental friendly manner.

CHAPTER:3 FIELD INVESTIGATION AND SURVEYS
3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

Field investigations and other survey works are required to assess the requisite details
including the terrain and soil conditions in the area, which can impact the design and cost
aspects of the project. Though detailed primary surveys are required to be carried to
ascertain the required characteristics; for Sewer zoning; secondary data has been used
for the overall planning of the Waste water system because of time and cost constraints.
3.2 TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY
For analysing the sewer zones of Adoni, the contours generated in-house using Google
earth software has been used for overall planning.
As the scope of study is confined to sewage treatment plant and interceptor drains, as
per SAAP 2016-20, which is intended to be tendered on EPC basis, no detailed field
investigations and surveys have been carried out. The required field investigations and
surveys need to be carried out by the EPC contractor before the execution. However for
the present study, necessary Reconnaissance and field Investigations have been
carried out to collect the information on the existing sewer collection network and
existing treatment plant details for further planning.
3.3 FLOW MEASUREMENT STUDIES
The intended objective of the study is to prepare a DPR for construction of sewage
treatment plant for treating the sewage generated from sewerage zones of the town. To
meet the intended objective, analysis was carried out to identify suitable location where
in the possibility of all the waste water flows of zones (as there is no proper sewer
collection system) meet at minimum number of locations so that the same can be
diverted / routed to the proposed STP locations by gravity.
Sewage generated from Zone III finally joins to the confluence point of Avvadhoddi
Vanka Drain and a natural drain combining to form a single drain. It is very necessary to
know the quantum of sewage generation at present conditions for future STP proposals.
Hence, flow measurement study has been carried out at a culvert near Kachra Basti,
Rayanagar. Flow was measured with a time interval of 2 hours.
Page 26
After the requisite studies and site visits, location near to the proposed STP was identified
as suitable to divert the flows into the proposed STP. The location was finalised as it was
fulfilling the following parameters.
 Most of the sewage flows generated from sewerage zone III is disposed off into the
drain which ultimately passes towards the proposed STP location.
 A location has been identified for 5 MLD STP near Siriguppa Check post and its
possession is in process.
Figure 3-1: Flow measurement location and existing natural drains near the
proposed 5 MLD STP
Flow measurement was carried out for the drain near the proposed STP location to
assess the existing flows in the drains so that scientific analysis of the required STP
capacities can be worked out. The flow measurement was further, cross checked with
desk top studies using zone maps and zone populations as per population projections
carried out for the city. Based on the fund availability for the city under SAAP 2016-20, the
capacities of the STP’s have been finalised for the required flows only. However, for
meeting the future requirements of the city, augmentation of these STPs may have to be
carried out at appropriate stages based on the requirements. The proposed STPs are
intended to be designed on modular basis to aid for future expansions if any.
Based on the topography levels we presume that the sewage flows generated from Zone
III flows into the downstream of Avvadhoddi Vanka Drain near the proposed location of
STP. In order to divert and treat the sewage, a small concrete weir type structure is
Page 27
proposed in the Avvadhoddi Vanka Drain which will be intercepted and diverted to the
inlet of the receiving chamber of pumping station.
Figure 3-2: Catchment Zone and location of proposed STP location
The flow measurement was further, cross checked with desk top studies using zone maps
and zone populations as per population projections carried out for the city. Based on the
fund availability for the city under SAAP 2016-20, the capacities of the STP’s have been
finalised for the required flows only. However, for meeting the future requirements of the
city, augmentation of these STPs may have to be carried out at appropriate stages based
on the requirements. The proposed STPs are intended to be designed on modular basis
to aid for future expansions if any.
3.3.1 FLOW MEASUREMENT METHOD

The amount of sewage flowing in channel during a given time is a function of velocity and
cross-sectional area of the flowing water.
Q = AV
Page 28
where Q is stream discharge (volume/time),
A is cross-sectional area, and V is flow velocity
Equipments used:
 Measuring Tape
 Stop-watch
 Rod, yard or meter stick to measure depth
 At least three highly visible buoyant objects such as a drifting branches or logs, pine
cone, coffee stir sticks, half-filled bottles, or oranges (objects buoyant enough not to
be effected by the wind)
 Stakes for anchoring tape measure to stream banks
 Waders
Float method: For measuring the surface velocity. The basic idea was to measure the
time that takes for the object to float a specified distance downstream.
V = travel distance/ travel time = L/t
The following steps were involved in the flow measurement process
Step 1: A straight reach with minimum turbulence was selected.

Step 2: The start and end point of the reach were marked (and the distance measured)
Step 3: An object was dropped in the upstream start point; start point of the reach.
Step 4: Stop watch was started at the point the object crossed the upstream marker and
was stopped the moment the object crossed the downstream marker.
Step 5: The procedure was repeated for at least 3 times and the average of these was
taken for further calculations.
Step 6: The stream width and depth were measured across many cross section and
average sections were taken. The depths were also measured across the
stream’s width at the start and stops markers and average the two.
Page 29
Q = Cross section area (A) * mean velocity (V)
A marked rod was used to measure the depth at regular intervals across the stream. Ten
such depth measurements were made and the average cross-sectional areas (A) were
arrived. Using the average area and average velocity, discharge Q was calculated. Many
such measurements were made at various time slots in a day to arrive at the average
daily flow. The summary of the flow measurements are provided in table 3-1.
3.4 GEO-TECHNICAL INVESTIGATION
As the entire STP cost is intended to be considered on MLD basis (as the EPC contractor
will carry out the detailed engineering works for STP), Detailed Geotechnical
Investigations have not been carried. However, it is intended to carry out exploratory bore
well investigation survey to assess the soil characteristics and provide the same as
supplementary information in the proposed STP tender documents for bidder’s
information.

4.2 DESIGN HORIZON
As per the census data, the population of Adoni Municipality in 2011 was 166537.
Sewerage and water supply systems are normally designed to meet requirements over
a period of 30 years after its completion. By considering time lag between design and
completion of the project, the base year is considered as 2018, Prospective Year as
2033 & Ultimate Year as 2048.

4.3 POPULATION PROJECTIONS & WATER DEMAND
Based on the past census data, Population projections with various methods were
carried out as under
 Arithmetic Progression method
 Incremental Increase method
 Geometric progression method
 Graphical method (polynomial)
 Graphical method(Exponential)
 Power Method
Summary of the populations projections carried out by various methods are provided in
table 4-2 below.
Table 4-2: Summary of population projections
Projection Method 2011 2018 2023 2033 2048

Arithmetic Increase 166537 180060 189718 209035 238011
Geometric Increase 166537 185986 201253 235650 298576
Incremental Increase 166537 179273 187973 204383 226519
Polynomial Method 166537 181534 189427 204152 223583
Exponential Method 166537 205977 225633 270752 355896
Linear Graphical Method 166537 186722 197060 217736 248750
From the above table and graph, Incremental increase method was found to be best
suited for the Adoni Municipality. As, in incremental increase method, the decade
per growth rate is not assumed to be constant as in the arithmetic or geometric
progression methods; but is Progressively increasing or decreasing, depending upon
whether the average of the incremental increases in the past data is positive or
negative.
As the master plan is not available with the ULB, population projection has not been
made in consonance with the Developmental Master Plan. As the projected
incremental increase method is in line with the projections made in SAAP 2015-16
DPR, the same has been adopted.
The total population of the city for various design horizons, after adding both erstwhile
city corporation area and that of the newly added areas is summarized in table 4-3.

5.1 INTRODUCTION
Provision of safe, adequate water is a basic necessity for the healthy living of a
community. In this section, norms that have been followed for estimation of water
demand, design criteria and our approach for AMRUT project will be dealt with. Water
demand has been estimated based on the projected population, agreed unit demand
norms along with water requirements for Industrial use, irrigation use etc, if any. On
the basis of the total water demand estimated, waste water generation have to be
assessed. As Andhra Pradesh State does not have its own norms for Water and
Wastewater projects, CPHEEO manual / NBC / IS codes were referred to, and
accordingly, the design criteria note was prepared and submitted by TCE to CE-PH,
Guntur for their review and approval. All the parameters were discussed with PH
authorities during October 2016 and based on the discussion; CE-PH had approved
the design criteria and the same has been reciprocated here.
5.2 WATER DEMAND
Water demand will be estimated based on the unit demand norms along with the
projected population as per ULB boundary limits. Unit demand norms approved are
provided in table 5-1 below;

5.4 SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT

Sewage Treatment Plant will be designed to remove the contaminants from sewage as
per the norms specified by CPHEEO Manual / APPCB and produce treated sewage for
recycling.
5.5 WEIR WORKS

In Adoni town there is no sewerage system existing. The sewage generated are being
discharged into the natural open drains. Avvadhoddi Vanka drain flows through the
upstream of Zone III and reaches to the Zone II and confluences with another natural
drain just before the location of the STP. The sewage generated from Zone III will be
disposed off into the downstream confluence point of these nalla and forms a single
drain. In order to divert and treat the sewage, a small concrete weir type structure is
proposed in the existing natural drains of Avvadhoddi Vanka drain which will be
intercepted and diverted to the inlet of the receiving chamber of pumping station.
The receiving chamber, two Inlet channels with isolation Gates ( 1 working + 1
Standby), trash screens in each channel to arrest the Large size of debris and grit, one
working mechanical coarse screens and one manual Coarse screen and stilling
chamber for Grit removal are provided before the collection well of pumping station in
order to remove the floating matter and grit particles from the sewage which will be
diverted. Further the sewage will be pumped from the collection well of pumping station
to the inlet of STP. The weir work will be utilised till the completion of sewer network in
the town. The plan and section of the weir arrangements are shown in the below
Figure 5-1.
The overview of Inlet works is provided in Figure 5-2. The sizing units of Inlet works are
as follows. The layout and hydraulic flow diagram of proposed Inlet works are provided
in Drawing No: TCE.10282A-CV-3009-SL-31704.

CHAPTER:6 SEWAGE TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES
6.1 SEWAGE TREATMENT
Sewage Treatment generally involves three stages, called Primary, Secondary and
Tertiary treatment.
 Primary treatment consists of temporarily holding the sewage in a quiescent basin
where heavy solids can settle to the bottom while oil, grease and lighter solids float
to the surface. The settled and floating materials are removed and the remaining
liquid may be discharged or subjected to secondary treatment.
 Secondary treatment removes dissolved and suspended biological matter.
Secondary treatment is typically performed by indigenous, water-borne micro-
organisms in a managed habitat. Secondary treatment may require a separation
process to remove the micro-organisms from the treated water prior to discharge or
tertiary treatment (if required).
 Tertiary treatment (if required) - Treated water sometimes requires additional
treatment to remove specific pollutant(s) left after primary and secondary
treatment, depending on final disposal/ reuse. It can be treated chemically or
physically (for example membrane filtration, chemical precipitation, etc) prior to
discharge into sensitive or fragile ecosystems such as
stream, river, bay, lagoon or wetland, or it can be used for the irrigation of a golf
course, green way or park. If it is sufficiently clean, it can also be used
for groundwater recharge or agricultural purposes. Figure x provides a schematic
diagram of a typical STP and Figure-6-1 provides information on the processes
followed in the STP.
Figure 6-1: Schematic Flow Diagram of typical Sewage Treatment Plant

Figure 6-2: Processes followed in Sewage Treatment Plant
6.2 REVIEW OF VARIOUS TECHNOLOGIES FOR SEWAGE TREATMENT
The likely technologies to treat sewage are:

1. Extended Aeration
2. Moving Bed Bio-film Reactor (MBBR)
3. Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR)
4. Membrane Bio Reactor
5. Soil Bio Technology
6.2.1 EXTENDED AERATION
The extended aeration process is similar to the conventional plug – flow process except
that it operates in the endogenous respiration phase of the growth curve, which requires
a low organic loading and long aeration time. Because of the long SRTs (20 to 30 d) and
HRT (12 - 24 hr), aeration equipment design is controlled by mixing needs and oxygen
demand. The process is simpler since primary settling tank and anaerobic digester are

not required. Generally, secondary clarifiers are designed at lower hydraulic loading
rates than conventional activated sludge clarifiers for better settlement of sludge.
Figure 6-3: Schematic for Extended Aeration Process
Advantages of EA:
(a) Good quality effluent is possible
(b) Relatively less complicated design and operation
(c) Capable of treating shock loads
(d) Well stabilized sludge.
Disadvantages of EA:
(a) Aeration requires high energy
(b) Relatively large aeration tanks
6.2.2 Moving Bed Bio-film Reactor (MBBR)
The MBBR is an aerobic attached growth process which uses cylindrical shaped
polyethylene carrier elements for biological growth. The moving media increases the
contact time between the microorganisms and the organics. Since the media has high
porosity it provides large surface area for microorganisms to attach and grow. It has
excellent characteristics for BOD/ COD removal and nitrification/de-nitrification for all

types of sewage. It is compact and requires comparatively lesser space than the
conventional system.
Figure 6-4: Schematic for MBBR
Advantages of MBBR:
(a) Provides long SRTs

(b) Good quality effluent is produced with low SS and COD
(c) Compact
Disadvantages of MBBR:
(a) Separate secondary settling tank required with sludge removal facility
(b) The process is sensitive
6.2.3 Sequential Batch Reactor
The SBR is a fill and draw type of reactor system involving a single complete – mix
reactor in which all steps of the activated sludge process occur. For Wastewater
Treatment with continuous flow, at least 2 basins are used so that one basin is in the fill
mode while the other goes through react, solids settling and effluent withdrawal modes.
A SBR goes through a number of cycles per day; a typical cycle may consist of 1.5 hr fill
and aeration, 0.75 hr settling and 0.75 hr for withdrawal of supernatant. MLSS remains
in the reactor during all cycles, thereby eliminating the need for separate secondary

sedimentation tanks. Decanting of supernatant is accomplished by decanter
mechanism. The HRT for SBRs generally range from 16 to 22 hrs. Based on the influent
flow rate and tank volume used. Aeration may be accomplished by jet aerators or coarse
bubble diffusers. Separate mixing provides operating flexibility and is useful during the
fill period for anoxic operation. Sludge wasting occurs normally during aeration period.
The complete operation is PLC controlled.
Figure 6-5: Schematic for Sequential Batch Reactor
Advantages of SBR:
(a) Process is simplified, separate final clarifiers not required and intermittent
return activated sludge pumping is provided.
(b) Compact facility.

(c) Operation is flexible; nutrient removal can be accomplished by operational
changes
(d) Can be operated as a selector process to minimize sludge bulking potential.
Disadvantages of SBR:
(a) High Peak flows can disrupt operation unless accounted for in design.
(b) Higher maintenance skills required.
6.2.4 Membrane Bio Reactor
MBR technology is the combination of a high rate, activated sludge biological process
with Ultra filtration (UF) membranes for solids separation. The MBR technology has 2
alternatives:
(a) Submerged MBR in Aeration basin.

(b) MBR in separate tanks.
MBR is a two step process that includes:
(a) The bioreactor, where aerobic bacteria acts on the organic matter with the
presence of dissolved oxygen.
(b) The membrane filtration module based on Ultra Filtration (UF), which separates
the biomass and bacteria from water.
In MBR system through the use of a permeate pump, vacuum is applied to a header
connected to the membranes. The vacuum draws the treated water through the
membranes. Airflow is introduced to the bottom of the membrane module, producing
turbulence that scours the external surface of the membranes. The scouring action
transfers the rejected solids away from the membrane surface.
Wasted Sludge shall be collected in sludge sump and shall be pumped to portable type
filter press for dewatering and then wasted directly from the system at solid
concentration of 18 to 20 percent solids or can be used as manure for gardening.
In addition to membrane modules equipment’s such as permeate pumps, Back pulse

pumps, air blowers, PLC system and Chemical cleaning system and storage etc., are
usually provided. There is no need of secondary clarifiers or polishing filters.

Figure 6-6: Schematic for Membrane Bio-Reactor
Advantages of MBR:
(a) Higher mixed liquor suspended solids concentrations in MBRs (8000 – 15,000
mg/L) as compared to the conventional process which allows only 1500 – 3000
mg/L MLSS.
(b) Optimum control of the microbial population and flexibility in operation with
excellent effluent quality (COD removal: ≥ 95 %, BOD removal: ≥98 % and TSS
removal: ≥ 99 %).
(c) MBR operates at low F/M ratio and long SRT. This means less sludge production
and better sludge quality. Better sludge quality ultimately reduces sludge bulking.
(d) Smaller foot print per unit of BOD loading or per unit feed flow rate. Ideal for
expansion of existing facilities without an increase in the footprint. The foot print
of MBR based plant is 25 to 40% lesser than that of conventional treatment
plants.
(e) Capable of absorbing organic shock loads.
(f) MBR serves as barrier to certain chlorine resistant pathogens such as
Cryptosporidium and Giardia.
(g) Minimum odour.
(h) Sludge yield is 20 – 40 % less as compared to conventional WWTP.
(i) Disinfection requirements are reduced.
(j) The effluent quality is suitable for recycle and reuse for flushing and gardening.
(k) Process control is easier with automation.
(l) Modular design for easy expansion.
Disadvantages of MBR:
(a) High capital cost due to expensive membrane units.

(b) O &M cost is high due to higher energy consumption, Chemical consumption and
limited life of membranes.
(c) Extensive piping and valves are required.
(d) Need to control membrane fouling.
(e) Higher maintenance skill required for monitoring device and automation.
6.3 Selection of Appropriate Sewage Treatment Technologies
Various alternative processes as described earlier have been evaluated for the
proposed capacity of 20 MLD. Based on the techno-economic analysis and the life
cycle cost, the treatment processes recommendations have been made. The
evaluation is based on following criteria’s:
(a) Area requirement;

(b) Power requirement;
(c) Cost comparison.
Life cycle cost analysis is carried out for the technologies mentioned earlier. Operation
& Maintenance cost is considered for 10 years in life cycle analysis. The comparison of
Area, Power and Cost comparison for different process are provided in the table 6-1
and life cycle cost comparison statements for the same is provided in table 6-1.

6.4 Conclusion and Recommendation
 Capital Costs for STP for Extended Aeration, Sequential Batch Reactor, SBT and
MBBR is almost same whereas for MBR it is more.
 Power for Extended Aeration is more compared to MBBR, SBT & SBR and for
MBR it is highest.
 Operation & Maintenance is higher for MBR as compared to other four
processes.
 Area requirement for MBR is less as compared to that required for other
alternatives. Further Tertiary Treatment is not required for MBR.
 MBR technology is good and generates high quality of effluent (5-7m years) but
the capital cost and O & M cost is very high. Membrane life is also short and
membranes needs to be replaced after certain interval of time which has high
periodic cost.
 Comparing the LCC cost of all the above mentioned treatment technologies, It is
concluded that the SBR is most economical followed by Extended Aeration.
However the SBR technology is a fully automation technology requires skilled
manner and Extended Aeration does not require automation & skilled manpower.
Equalization tank and Primary clarifiers are not required in SBR whereas it
required in Extended Aeration. Minimal foot area is required in SBR when
compared to Extended Aeration.
 In respect of tertiary treatment (if required), SBR technology followed by Rapid
gravity sand filter (if required) is the best option for Sewage treatment plant and
hence, for the proposed STP at Adoni, SBR technology has been recommended.
Additional advantages of SBR when compared to other technologies includes
 Equalization, primary clarification, biological treatment and secondary

clarification can be achieved in a single reactor vessel.
 Operating flexibility and control
 Minimal footprint area
 Potential capital cost savings by eliminating clarifiers and other equipment.

CHAPTER:7 SLUDGE/SEPTAGE MANAGEMENT
7.1 Septage
Septage or septic tank sludge refers to the partially treated sludge stored in a septic
tank or (less commonly) in a pit latrine. Septage is the semi-liquid material removed
from the septic tank, i.e a mixture of solids and water settled at the bottom of the septic
tank.
Septic tanks are the primary source of septage generation. This functions as a settling
tank and digestion unit. The solids in the wastewater settle to the bottom of the tank
where they undergo anaerobic degradation along with the organic matter. It has an
offensive odour and is high in organics and pathogenic microorganisms. Scum
accumulates on the surface while the sludge settles at the bottom, comprising 20 to
50% of the total septic tank volume when pumped. A septic tank will usually retain 60 to
70% of the solids, oil and grease that passes through the system.
Septage is a highly variable organic waste that often contains large amounts of grease,
grit, hair and debris and is characterized by an objectionable odour. These
characteristics make septage difficult to handle and treat. The major reason for
providing adequate treatment and disposal systems is to protect public health and the
environment, as septage may harbour disease causing viruses, bacteria and parasites.
Physical and chemical characteristics of septage are provided in table 7-1and an
Illustrative characteristic of septage for Indian conditions is provided in table 7-2. The
range of BOD, COD and SS in Indian conditions is provided in table 7-3 and that of the

7.2 Septage Treatment & Disposal

Septage treatment and disposal facilities are either privately or publicly owned. Larger
municipalities often have the technical and managerial capabilities necessary to
exercise full control over septage handling, treatment, and disposal. Other municipalities
are attracted to privately owned systems. Municipality, however, remain responsible for
ensuring the safe handling and disposal of septage generated within its boundaries, for
establishing local ordinances or regulations governing septage handling, and for
meeting all state and federal permit requirements and regulations.
Alternatives for the treatment and disposal of septage fall into the following categories:
 Land application
 Treatment at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs)
 Treatment at independent septage treatment plants
7.3 Elements of Septage Management

Septage generation rates vary widely from place to place depending on practices of
septic tank use, number of users, water used for flushing, and the frequency of cleaning
the septage. Assuming an average septic tank volume of 3 m3 and emptying of septage
when one third of the septic tank is filled with settled solids, the volume of septage
emptied would be 1 m3. The accumulating sludge at the bottom of the septic tank has to
be removed and treated once it has reached the designed depth or at the end of the
designed de-sludging period whichever occurs earlier. Such a removal can be done
possible by mechanical vaccumum type trucks. While sucking out the sludge, the liquid in
the septic tank will also be sucked out. Such a mixture is referred to as septage. The
removal of septage from a household septic tank should occur approximately once in two
or three years.
7.4 Need of Septage Management

Facilities like septic tanks, dry latrines, community toilets, or other types accumulate
faecal sludge. Septage needs to be removed periodically. If this septage is not properly
managed, negative impacts would be created on the urban environment and on public
health i,e contamination of ground and surface water resources.
7.5 Approach for Septage management

In order to improve the existing sewage system in the city, the consultants propose to
adopt the following techniques of septage management which includes proper collection,
transportation and treatment of the septage in an Environmental friendly manner including
reinforcements of suitable law to curb the menace of improper septage management.
Figure 7-6 provides the pictorial representation of the proposed septage management for
Adoni Town.
Figure 7-1: Proposed Septage Management for Adoni
7.6 Key activities involved in Septage Management
 Assessment of existing toilets and septic tanks through surveys and creation of
database.
 Design and construction / refurbishment of septic tanks
 Desludging of septic tanks
 Scheduled septic tank emptying services
 Treatment of faecal sludge / septage
7.7 De-sludging of Septic Tanks
In Indian cities, most of the septic tanks are de-sludged manually. This is considered as
an unpleasant and repulsive job. The Government of India has enacted the Employment
of Manual Scavengers and Construction of Dry Latrines (Prohibition) Act, 1993 which
emphasizes on
 Desludging /emptying of septic tanks need to be carried out using mechanical
devices like suction emptier trucks / vacuum tankers.
 Yearly desludging of septic tank is desirable, but if it is not feasible or
economical, then septic tanks should be cleaned at least once in two-three
years, provided the tank is not overloaded due to use by more than the number of
persons for which it is designed (As per CPHEEO Manual, Page 9- 22).
 Frequent desludging inhibits the anaerobic action in the tank. Normally the tanks are
cleaned when the sum of the depth of the scum and the sludge is observed to
exceed half the depth of the tank. (As per clause 5.1 note, page no. 16, IS: 2470
(Part-I), 1985.
 Periodical de-sludging also helps reduce the pollution levels in the liquid effluent,
which normally enters waterways untreated.
 A small quantity of sludge (i.e 1-2 inch) should be left in tank to facilitate future
decomposition.
 Regular de-sludging activities require well-organized community and public/private
service providers.
 Septic tanks should not be scrub cleaned or washed with detergent.
 The sludge after removal should be transported in a controlled manner to avoid
leakage or spillage.
7.8 Septic Tank Cleaning Machines and Septage Transportation
 Vehicle having a capacity of 2,000 litres shall clean 3 to 10 septic tanks per day.
 Small scale vacuum trucks called "Vacutug" are recommended for areas
inaccessible to large vehicles
 Desludging trucks act as a “mobile sewer network” for onsite sanitation systems.
They collect the septage at the household level and transport it to treatment or
disposal sites.
 It is desirable to develop standard operating procedures for pumping and
transportation of septage as part of a Manual of Practice for septage. These
procedures will include following
 Scheduling and routing for trucks
 Customer service protocols
 Locating tanks and cleanouts
 Proper pumping equipment operation and worker safety
 Site control, including post-pumping clean-up
 Transportation requirements, including rules of the road
 Disposal procedures at the treatment facility
 Routine service of equipment – greasing and oiling, minor repairs
 Recordkeeping for all tanks pumped and wastes discharged at the disposal
facility.
7.9 Treatment of Septage at Sewage Treatment Plants
Co-treatment of septage along with domestic sewage at the sewage treatment plant
(STP) is the most desirable option. The sewage treatment plants should have adequate
capacity to accept the septage without hampering the functioning of the sewage
treatment plant. The options in treating faecal sludge / septage are as follows
 Option 1: Treatment of septage at sewage treatment plants
 Septage addition at the nearest sewer manhole: Septage added to a sewer
upstream of the sewage treatment plant so that substantial dilution of septage
occurs before reaching the sewage treatment plant.
 Septage addition at the STP: Septage added immediately in the upstream of
the screening and grit removal processes.
 Septage addition to sludge digesters/Sludge management units
 Option 2: Treatment of septage at independent Septage treatment plants
 Space is not a constraint: Lime treatment, Sludge drying beds, Anaerobic
baffled reactor, stabilization pond, constructed wetland, co-composting with solid
waste
 Space is a constraint: Mechanical Dewatering system

7.11 Recycle System for Process Wastewater

Wastewater from the following process units will have to be collected and re-routed back
into the mainstream, i.e., upstream of the SBR Basins for normal treatment.
7.12 Recycling and Reuse of treated effluent
There is no such proposal for recycling and reuse of treated water however the ULB can
explore the possibilities for selling this water for needy industries or can be used for their
own purposes. The following are the standards for the reuse of treated sewage quality
provided in table 7-7.

8.4 STP CAPACITIES - CALCULATION
As described earlier, the sewage generated from Zone-III and Zone II leads to the
proposed 5 MLD. Necessary site visits and location suitability for the construction of
the proposed STP has been carried out by TCE Engineers along with municipal
Engineers and proposed lands are found to be suitable for the STP construction. The 5
MLD STP is proposed near Siriguppa Check Post, Rayanagar.
Based on the population projections and the sewage generations in the respective
sewage zones, the capacities of the STPs have been calculated and is provided in the
table 8-6 below.

Zone-III 7.51 8.55 9.43
Total 7.51 8.55 9.43
From the above analysis, it can be concluded that a treatment plant of capacity 22.05
MLD will be required to treat the base year 2018 sewage flow for the entire town.
However, at present 5 MLD for Zone-III capacity of STP is proposed under Amrut
Scheme. During the horizon 2033 to 2048, to cater the Intermediate year flow of 20
MLD and for Ultimate year flow of about 2.86 MLD capacity of sewage treatment
plants respectively will be required to treat future sewage flows generated from Adoni
town.
Under AMRUT scheme, it is proposed 5 MLD capacity of STP which can treat present
sewage generated from the town and the sewage is conveyed to STP through
proposed interceptor drains.
Flow measurements, carried out on the drains near the proposed STP location (refer
to the details provided in field surveys and investigations chapter) reveal that, the
present waste water flow at Kachra Basti, Rayanagar is about 9.94 MLD. It can be
concluded that at present, flow in the natural drain is available and therefore STP will
get its design capacity flow during commissioning and operation.
Hence, based on the desktop analysis, field measurement and available funds, a
capacity of 5 MLD capacity has been recommended.
This 5 MLD capacity is recommended for the following reasons
 With the 5 MLD proposed capacity, can be used to treat the part flows generated
from the zone III & Zone II; until the above schemes are commissioned. Based on
Andhra Pradesh Urban Finance & Page 73

the future increased flow of wastewater, new modules of required capacity can be
added.
 The proposed capacity will meet the funds allocations for Adoni town under
Amrut SAAP 2016-20 scheme.
8.5 Proposed STP for Zone I & II

The Adoni Municipality has identified a land of about 2 acre near Siriguppa Check
Post, Rayanagar at 15⁰ 37'46.48"N, 77⁰ 15'14.34"E location for 5 MLD STP. The
land is vacant and its transfer is in process. Treated effluent from STP will be
discharged to the drains which will be finally utilised for irrigation purposes.
The location of the proposed STP is provided in figure 8-1.

8.6 INFLUENT AND EFFLUENT CHARACTERISTICS OF STP
Understanding of the nature of physical, chemical and biological characteristics of
sewage is essential in planning, design and operation of treatment and disposal
facilities. The raw sewage characteristics are referred from CPHEEO Manual, 2013. It
is proposed that the sewage generated is to be treated to such standards that it can be
used for Non potable applications. The typical characteristics of the raw sewage are
provided in table 8-7.

8.7 PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF STP (SBR TREATMENT)

From the process selection studies carried out in the earlier chapters it was
concluded that, SBR technology followed by Gravity sand filter was the
recommended option for proposed Sewage treatment plant. This proposed STP is
designed for an average flow of 5 MLD capacity. SBR based process description is
provided below

shall be post chlorinated prior to usage. The hydraulics of the plant shall be designed
in such a way that the flow from inlet chamber of STP to the disposal is by gravity.
The hydraulic gradient of the STP shall be such that no intermediate pumping is
required. The following are the unit operations and processes required.
 Screening
 Grit removal
 Aeration and settling
 Recirculation of activated sludge (RAS)
 Transfer of surplus activated sludge (SAS)
 Post Chlorination
 Rapid gravity sand filter (if required)
 Sludge thickening
 Sludge dewatering using Centrifuges
8.7.2 PRIMARY TREATMENT
A. Inlet Chamber of STP

An inlet chamber shall be designed and constructed at a suitable location inside the
plot. The levels in the inlet chamber shall be controlled through level controller to avoid
overflow and the raw sewage pump should automatically trip at low level. The inlet
chamber shall be provided with suitable arrangement of walkway with hand railing
preferably connecting the inlet chamber, screen chamber and degritting system.
Access facility to the walkways shall be provided. Sewage shall be received through
the pumping main into the inlet chamber. The pumped sewage shall enter the inlet
chamber such that the top sewage level in the inlet chamber shall coincide with the
invert level of the pumping main.
B. Fine Screening Channels

Raw sewage received at inlet chamber shall be conveyed to a fine bar screen through
channels designed for peak flows. The velocity in the channel shall not be less than
0.3 m/sec during minimum flow conditions and not more than 1.2 m/sec during peak
flow conditions. There shall be two fine bar screen and each fine bar screen shall be

designed to deal with ultimate peak flow of the plant. The fine bar screens shall
remove screenings from the sewage flow exceeding 6 mm in size.
C. De-gritting Unit
The screened sewage shall flow from the fine screens to degritting systems. Two
degritting systems shall be provided each capable of handling ultimate peak flow. The
degritting tanks shall be of RCC.
The systems shall be of square type with central scraping mechanism for removal of
grit. A series of adjustable FRP baffles shall be provided at the inlet of the grit
chambers for proper distribution of flow.
Grit shall be collected in one pocket at the periphery of the grit separation chamber by
means of classifier mechanism; the grit shall be washed and discharged into hopper in
the upstream of chamber which can be received in a trolley. A pump with suitable
motor shall return organic matter at the inlet of the system. Corners of square grit

The degritted sewage shall be conveyed to the distribution chamber through a

conveying channel. Suitable conditions for blending the Return Activated Sludge
(RAS) with the degritted sewage and even distribution of flow between the anoxic
zones/ tanks under all flow conditions shall be provided.
D. Parshall Flume
A Parshall flume, the most recognized and commonly used flume, is a fixed hydraulic
structure developed to measure flow. It is currently used to measure volumetric flow
rate in municipal sewer lines, and influent/effluent flows in wastewater treatment
plants. The Parshall flume accelerates flow through a contraction of both the parallel
sidewalls and a drop in the floor at the flume throat. Under free-flow conditions the
depth of water at specified location upstream of the flume throat can be converted to a
rate of flow.
8.7.3 SECONDARY TREATMENT
I. Sequencing Batch Reactor:
The Sequential batch reactor technology of activated sludge treatment shall be used.

The presence of solids in the influent to the aeration tanks shall be taken into account
in the estimation of the surplus activated sludge. SBR basin(s) shall be designed for
respective modular tank capacity. The aeration tank(s) shall be a reinforced concrete
structure.
Each aeration module shall be preceded either by a separate anoxic tank or an anoxic
zone. The anoxic zones / tanks shall be sized so that at a RAS flow rate equivalent to
the average design flow of the incoming sewage, the nitrates present in the RAS shall
be completely denitrified. SBR basin(s) to be designed for present average flow.
If an anoxic zone is used, it shall be separated from the aerated zone by a baffle. In
order to prevent short-circuiting, the effluent from the anoxic zone shall be arranged in
such a way that it is opposite to the influent, i.e., if the influent to the anoxic zone is at
the top of the tank, the flow to the aeration zone shall be under the baffle. Back-mixing
i.e., the intrusion of the mixed liquor from the aerated zone to the anoxic zone shall be
prevented. The anoxic zones / tanks shall be equipped with mixers to maintain the
activated sludge in suspension at all times. Slow mixers shall be used to avoid
damaging the sludge flocs.
From the outlet weir of Anoxic tank(s), the mixed liquor shall flow into respective SBR
basin(s). The portion of activated sludge from the Return activated sludge pumps shall
be returned to the upstream of SBR basin(s). The return sludge arrangement shall
ensure thorough mixing with the inflow into the Anoxic zone (s).
The diffused aeration system shall be so designed such that sufficient oxygen is
provided for carbonaceous treatment, sludge stabilization, nitrification and maintaining
the DO at the specified level. Allowance for diurnal variations in the load shall be
made. Reduction in oxygen demand due to denitrification in the anoxic zones shall
also be taken into account. An on-line DO monitoring system shall be provided for
each SBR basin. Mounting shall be on a rigid base plate. During power failure and on
application of standby power through DG set, the blower(s) are required to be run
continuously. Necessary instrumentation and control system shall be provided for the
same.
II. Chlorination Unit

Post chlorination facility shall be provided for disinfecting the treated sewage before
transfer to the gravity sand filtration. The facilities shall comprise a mixing tank
followed by chlorine contact tank. The overflow from the SBR basin(s) shall be
received through a channel at the mixing tank and passed on to the chlorine contact

tank. The Chlorine contact tank shall be constructed of RCC, provided with baffles
inside the tank. Chlorine contact tank shall be designed for a hydraulic retention time
of 30 minutes at ultimate average flow.
Treated Sewage shall be dosed with chlorine gas at concentrations not less than 5
mg/l and not more than 10 mg/l at entry to the contact tank. Effluent from the chlorine
contact tank shall not have more than 1 mg/l of residual chlorine at all flow conditions.
The chlorinators shall be adequate to dose the required chlorine during the peak flow
conditions.
HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH CHLORINE
Health Hazards
General—Chlorine gas is primarily a respiratory irritant. The characteristic penetrating
odour of chlorine gas usually gives warning of its presence. At higher concentration it
is visible as greenish yellow gas. The effect of chlorine may become more severe for
upto 36 hours of exposure.
Acute Local—Short-duration exposures of skin to high concentrations of chlorine gas

are not much irritating or corrosive. But this effect is perceptible only when prolonged
exposure is tolerated by the use of respiratory protection. Splashes of liquid chlorine
on the eyes, skin and clothing, may cause immediate irritation and chemical burns,
and severe damage to body tissues.
Acute, Systemic—Chlorine gas is extremely irritating to the mucous membranes, the

eyes and the respiratory tract. If the duration of exposure or the concentration of
chlorine-is excessive, it will cause restlessness, throat irritation, sneezing and copious
salivation. In extreme cases, lung tissues may be attacked resulting in pulmonary
edema. Inhale lowest published toxic concentration TCL0 is 15 ppm and Inhale lowest
published lethal concentration is 430 ppm. The physiological effects of various
concentrations of chlorine gas are shown in Table 1.
Table 8-9: Effect of Chlorine at Various Concentrations (clause 4.1.3)
SI No. Effects Concentration of

Chlorine Gas in Air, ppm
i Least amount for detectable odour 3.5
ii Threshold of irritation 4.0
iii Noxiousness, impossible to breathe several 5.0
minutes

SI No. Effects Concentration of
Chlorine Gas in Air, ppm
iv Concentration causing immediate irritation of 15.0
throat
v Concentration causing cough 30.2
vi Concentration dangerous in 30 minutes to 1 h 40-60
vii Concentration dangerous for even short 50.0
exposure
Chronic (Local and Systemic)—
 A concentration of 1 ppm of chlorine gas may produce slight symptoms after

several hours exposure.
 Prolonged exposure to atmospheric chlorine concentration of 5 ppm results in
disease of bronchi and a pre-deposition of tuberculosis while lung studies have
shown that concentration of 0.8 to 1 ppm cause permanent, although moderate
reduction in pulmonary function.
 Acne is not unusual in persons exposed for long periods of time to low
concentrations of chlorine, and is commonly known as chlorance—Tooth enamel
damage may also occur.
GENERAL PREVENTIVE MEASURES
The fundamental steps for safe working conditions in a plant or area where chlorine
is produced, stored or processed are:
a. Designing of layout of area with due consideration for adequate natural or

mechanical ventilation,
b. Use of properly selected material for construction of plant and equipment for
handling of chlorine,
c. Preventive maintenance of all equipment in proper working condition, and
d. Availability and use of adequate and suitable personal protective equipment at
all times.
e. Chlorine Leak Detector system
Chlorine is particularly irritating to persons afflicted with asthma, certain types of

bronchitis, other chronic lung conditions, and irritations of the upper respiratory tract;
such persons should not be employed where exposures to chlorine gas might occur.
Pre-placement medical examination including a chest X-ray is recommended for all
new entrants and follow-up medical examinations at suitable intervals for all workers
handling chlorine.

Eye Protection
Eye protection devices should always be worn in a chemical plant. If there is danger of
contact with liquid chlorine, it is essential to wear a gas mask with a full face piece.
Respiratory Protection
A suitable gas mask should be available to every employee involved with chlorine
handling. Respiratory protective equipment should be carefully maintained and kept in
clean, dry, light-proof cabinets properly protected by paraffined paper or polyethylene
bags. Cleaning and inspection by competent person is generally necessary after each
occasion on which the apparatus is used and should, in any case, take place at least
once a month. Equipment used by more than one person should be sterilized after
each use. A defective or inoperable mask is worse than none at all.
1.12 TERTIARY TREATMENT (IF REQUIRED)
A. Rapid Gravity Sand Filter

The rapid gravity sand filter comprises of bed of sand serving as a single medium
granular matrix supported on gravel layer overlying an under drainage system. When
the clarified water containing suspended and colloidal matter is applied to the top of
filter bed, these solids are entrapped in the granular medium matrix. The accumulation
of suspended particles in the pores and on the surface of filter medium leads to built
up of head loss. When the head loss reaches at a pre-determined value, the filter is
then backwashed with the help of air and water to remove the accumulated suspended
matter from filter.
Figure 8-3 Rapid Gravity Sand Filter
After chlorination the treated effluent will be pumped to the Rapid gravity sand filter,
Ferric chloride will be added to the online static mixer to enhance coagulation and
flocculation. Inline Mixers shall be provided for mixing of chemicals with the secondary

treated water. The floc size will be increased with static mixers. The flocculated water
will be transferred through the rapid gravity sand filter, where suspended matter will be
accumulated on media and treated water will be stored in the treated water tank. The
provision for chlorination shall be kept in the treated water tank. Treated water can be
directly use for Non potable applications like flushing and floor washing gardening etc.
Wash water will be transfer to the Equalization tank for further treatment.

8.8 EFFLUENT DISPOSAL

The options of reuse of treated sewage so far have not been explored. Meanwhile
the treated effluent from the STP will be discharged into the existing drains, which will
be finally utilised for irrigation purpose.

The project provides the reuse of treated sewage which can be utilised for water
reclamation and non potable uses such as: Washing cars, flushing toilets, cooling
water for power plants, concrete mixing, artificial lakes, irrigation for golf courses and
public parks, and for hydraulic fracturing.
8.9 UTILITIES IN PROPOSED STP
Utilities for the treatment plant facilities will consist of the following components
i. Water Supply arrangement
At Sewage treatment plant potable water is required for various uses including
a. Domestic supply for the staff
b. Laboratory for testing
c. Preparation of chemicals
d. Washing purpose
e. Cooling system
The source of water will be Municipal supply.
ii. Green Belt

Provision of green belt on the periphery of the STP to shield the view of the
facility from outside is proposed. Suitable trees shall be planted at various
locations in such a way that they do not interfere with the work operations. Lawns
and flower beds shall be provided at free available spaces.
iii. Roads
Roads will be provided around the structures. The roads will be 5m wide and
surface with asphalt. Places where vehicular movement is not expected 2m wide
brick pavement is provided. Storm water drainage will be provided along the
roads which will finally terminate at the nearby natural nalas / drain.
iv. Storm Water Drainage

Storm water drainage will be provided along the roads and hard standing areas to
prevent flooding and to divert storm water to the outfall effluent channel. A rainfall
intensity of 50 mm/hour has been used for the design of the storm water system.
The hydraulic design will be carried out using Manning’s formula for open
channel flow.

Channels are designed for a minimum self -cleansing velocity of 0.6 m/s and a
maximum velocity of 3.0 m/s. The rectangular channels will have a minimum size
of 0.3 m wide x 0.4 m deep and a maximum size of 1.0m wide x 1.0m deep. The
minimum freeboard will be 0.2 m.
v. Compound walls/Fencing
Common burnt brick wall with barbed wire fencing above is proposed along the
periphery of the STP. Gates will be provided at the main entrance and picket
gates are proposed at selected other places along the boundary.
vi. Site Security

A security office with facilities to record the entry and exit of the Contractor’s and
employer’s staff and visitors shall be provided at the entrance. Security posts are
proposed at the corners of the plot boundary.
8.10 TERMINAL SEWAGE PUMPING STATION

As described in the earlier sections, the sewage generated from Zone-III flows into
drain near Siriguppa Check Post, Rayanagar. A small weir like structure is intended
to be constructed across the drains to intercept and divert the sewage to the
proposed STP. At the proposed STP locations, a terminal Sewage Pumping station
shall be constructed for lifting the sewage. The typical diagram of the proposed
Sewage Pumping station is provided as TCE.10282A-CV-3009-SL-31704.
For sewage pumping stations, the civil works have been designed for the sewer
capacities. However the mechanical and electrical equipment will be designed for the
actual flows in view of the ease of changing equipment in short time. The equipment
life is considered to be 15 years compared to structures which have about 50 years
of useful life. Generally, the maximum flow i.e. peak inflow at design horizon dictates
the size of wet well of the pumping station. Fully submersible pumps have been
considered in the design where motor is housed in the submerged unit.
i. Screening and Grit Removal

Wastewater from open drain Nallah contains large solids and grit that can
interfere with treatment processes or cause undue mechanical wear and
increased maintenance on sewage treatment equipment. To minimize potential
problems, these materials require separate handling. Preliminary treatment
removes these constituents from the influent wastewater. Preliminary treatment

consists of trash screening followed by mechanical coarse screening & Manual
grit removal channel.
ii. Terminal Pumping Station
At the proposed STP location, a terminal Sewage Pumping station shall be
constructed for lifting the water. The layout and HFD (Hydraulic Flow
Diagram) of the inlet works are provided in the drawing no. TCE.10282A-
CV-3009-SL-31704.
For sewage pumping stations, the civil works have been designed for the sewer
capacities. However the mechanical and electrical equipment will be designed
for the actual flows in view of the ease of changing equipment in short time. The
equipment life is considered to be only 15 years compared to structures which
have about 60 years of useful life. Generally, the maximum flow i.e. peak inflow
at design horizon dictates the size of wet well of the pumping station. Fully
submersible pumps have been considered in the design where motor is housed
in the submerged unit.
8.10.1 Design criteria
The size of the sump will be based on retention period of max 30 minutes of Average
flow and minimum 5 minutes of peak flow. Pipes and valves will be sized such that the
velocity shall not exceed 2.0 m/s.
8.10.2 Layout and installation
The sewage will be diverted through weir in the natural drain. The wet well is 5 m in
diameter at 5 MLD STP. Submersible non - clog pump motor set with chain - pulley
block and pump motor set sliding on guide rails has been selected. The arrangement
is such that when pump reaches bottom base, its delivery nozzle sits automatically on
delivery pipe. In order to remove the submersible pumps a cutout of 3m x 2m has been
provided on the pump floor slab. For proper space utilization of pump house the
delivery pipes, common header along with their valves and dismantling joints are
placed in a separate chamber beside the pump house. For maintenance purpose CI
rungs will be provided inside the valve chamber. In order to avoid solid deposition in
the bottom floor of the wet well suitable benching will be provided and will be directed
towards the submersible pumps. Superstructure of about 6m x6m has been
considered in order to accommodate Electrical control panels, ventilation fans and
manually operated overhead travelling hoist.

The capacity is kept 1.5 times in order to lift and lower the single heaviest component
in the pump house. The hoist shall be provided with all needed slings and other
associated equipment to handle the plant installed.
Head room in the pump room of pumping station is kept adequate to ensure handling
of pump and motor in service bay without constraint. The headroom will also be
adequate to ensure natural ventilation and heat dissipation to a tolerable limit in event
of non-functioning of ventilation system. Rolling shutter has been considered for partial
vehicle movement inside pumping station for loading and unloading of pumps.
8.10.3 Pump duty
There will be three working and two stands by pumps. The capacity of the working
pumps will be 209 m3/hr (2Working DWF) + 105 m3/hr (1 Working ½ DWF) and
standby pumps will be 209 m3/hr ( 1 Standby DWF) + 105 m3/hr ( 1 Standby ½ DWF)
with a head of 18m for 5 MLD STP.
8.10.4 Valves and pipe work

Pump valves, pipe work, and their supports shall be designed to withstand the
maximum stresses imposed by any operating condition, including the shock resulting
from pump starting when the advancing inrush of sewage strikes the closed non-return
valve.
The design maximum velocity through the valves and pump branch pipe work shall not
exceed 2m/s.
The design pressure rating of valves and pipe work shall be 1.5 times the pump shut
valve pressure or 10 bar, whichever is greater.
Each pump shall be provided with a delivery non-return valve, a delivery isolating
valve, and an automatic air inlet/release valve. The air valve shall be fitted to the
delivery pipe work near to the discharge bend and upstream of the non-return valve.
Pump delivery isolating valves shall be manually operated, resilient-seated butterfly

valves/gate valves. Manual operation shall be by hand wheel through integral
reduction gearing.
Non-return valves shall be of the swing-check type, designed for rapid closing as soon
as forward flow stops.
Each pump air inlet/release valve shall be designed and sized to ensure:

a) On pump stopping, the pump column pipe drains into the pump well so that
negative pressures, which could be damaging when the pump is restarted cannot
occur.
b) On pump starting, air is expelled from the column pipe fast enough to prevent
air being forced past the pump non-return valve and into the delivery manifold, and the
air cushion in the column pipe prevents damage to pipe work or non-return valve from
the advancing water column.
A delivery main isolating valve shall be provided as shown on the drawings.
The valve shall be gate type with resilient seating, and manually operated by a hand
wheel through integral reduction gearing.
The valve shall be the same pressure rating as the delivery manifold.
Pump delivery pipe work shall be ductile iron, with flanged connections. Pressure
ratings shall match those for valves as given above.
Dismantling joints shall be incorporated wherever needed to facilitate the removal of

pipes valves.
8.11 Septage Quantity Generation

Septage generation rates vary widely from place to place depending on practices of
septic tank use, number of users, water used for flushing and the frequency of
cleaning the septage. The size of a septic tank in individual houses in India ranges
from 1 to 4 cum, whereas the size of a septic tank in office or apartment buildings may
vary from 10 to 100 cum.
The average daily quantity of septage to be treated depends on volume of digested

sludge in septic tank and sludge withdrawal frequency. Volume of digested sludge is
normally considered as 0.00021 m3 per capita per day. The references have been
taken from IS: 2470 (Part I) – 1985, Clause 3.4.3.3. Table 8-13 provides information
on the quantum of septage generation calculated for Adoni Town used for septage
treatment in the proposed STP’s

200, STP will be 30-40% under design when entire sewerage Network will be
in Place.

3 Scenario 2 : If the Treatment of Septage at Sewage Treatment Plants will
be Proposed :
3.1 STP Design Value :
Septage volume 13759 Cum/year
37.70 Cum/day
Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) of Septage as 7000 mg/L

at Inlet of STP
Total Flow to at the inlet of STP 5000 M3/day
Expected BOD after Septage Mixing with Sewage 214.54 mg/L
at Inlet of STP
Maximum BOD value will be <250 mg/L due to partial degradation of the BOD
in the Septic Tank. Hence, Sewage treatment plant has adequate design
capacity to accommodate the Septage without hampering the functioning of
the sewage treatment plant. The operational efficiency will remain same due to
the flexibility and automation.
Assuming flow of 5 MLD of sewage of 140 - 210 mg/L BOD is conveyed to the
treatment plant and additional Septage of 37.70 m3 of 7000 mg/L, the
proportioned inlet BOD has diluted to 214.54 mg/L which is less than the
design considered BOD. However the BOD shall be within the range of design
parameter of 250 mg/L to 300 mg/L.
When the entire Sewerage network for Zones will be in place within 3-5 years,
then BOD value will be in the range of 250 – 300 mg/L , which is as per the
Standard Parameters of CPHEEO.

However, when the sewerage network will be in place, Septic Tanks needs to
be Bypassed & demolished. If the septic tanks will not bypassed then the De-
sludging of Septic Tanks, transporting the Septage would be resulting into the
recurring cost.
Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) considered for 250 - 300 mg/L
Design.
above table, provides a method to estimate the allowable rates of Septage
addition, assuming that a holding tank is provided and that Septage is added
to the sewage flow uniformly.
The Septage addition to the STP should be at a constant rate (uniform) as per
the estimated Quantity as per above table with a provision of holding tank.
3.2 Requirements of additional Treatment Units to Treat Septage in the STP:
There is no requirement of Anaerobic sludge digestion in sludge Digester
Tank, Biogas Generation & Storage/biogas flaring facilities.

Conclusion: As presented in the overall scenario above, Co-treatment of Septage
along with Septic Tank Effluent at a sewage treatment plant (STP) seems to be the
most desirable option. It is recommended to consider the Co-treatment of Septage
along with domestic sewage at a sewage treatment plant (STP).
8.12 Septage Transportation to STP

Present Septage quantity of entire town of Adoni is around 37.70 m3/day. Hence 4
nos. of vacuum cleaner tanks each capacity of 5 m3 tanks with approximately 2 no.
of trips would be required for septage transportation to STP site.
Hence, the consultants have designed the septage management for the existing

CHAPTER:11 IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE
11.1 GENERAL
This chapter provides the insights for the implementation schedule for the proposed
project.
For projects greater than 10 Crores, the contract would be on EPC basis where in the
requisite survey and investigation, design work needs to be carried out by the agency
before execution and get it approved by PDMC / ULB. For projects less than 10 crores,
the contract would be on Item based tenders, where in the executing agency would be
carrying out the works as per the designs and drains supplied by PDMC.
As the proposed project is a high end activity, with substantial field and office inputs
required for effective planning and execution of the proposed components, it is suggested
to opt for EPC contract with minimum 10 years of O&M with specified performance criteria
to ripe the benefit of the project.
The activities to be performed for implementation of work and estimated time duration for
completion of proposed works are given in the form of a bar chart in Table-8.1

CHAPTER:13 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN
13.1 Introduction
In this Chapter potential impacts on the environment from the proposed project on the
ULB are identified based on the nature and extent of various activities associated during
construction and after completion of the project. The proposed expansion activities will
have impact of varying magnitude on environmental components both beneficial (positive)
and adverse (negative) impacts. Both these (positive) and adverse (negative) impacts are
considered for the impact prediction studies. The details of impact prediction and
assessment are given in this chapter.
13.2 Legal and Regulatory Frame Works
The project is expected to bring significant environmental and health benefits, such as
improvements in the sustainability of water sources and improvements in public health
through better quality of treated water. Although no major environmental issues are
anticipated, certain investments items to be funded under the project may require special
mitigation measures to protect the environment and enhance health safety.
13.3 Local Regulatory Framework
As per the Environmental regulations in India, the S.0.1533 no Environmental clearance is

required for Water supply projects. However, Pollution Control Board can be approached
for funding for STP projects and the regulatory frame works of PCB norms shall be
adhered to.
13.4 Impacts during Construction
13.4.1 Impacts during construction of Air Quality
The potential ambient air quality impacts arising from the proposed project would occur
mainly during construction phase. During construction, the project would have two major
impacts on ambient air quality due to an increase in gaseous emissions by heavy
construction equipments and vehicles, and an increase in dust by construction activities.
Earth excavation work, foundation work, superstructure work, material storage,
transportation and handling of construction materials, and wind erosion are the major
factors that would produce a temporary, localized increase in SPM and RPM levels. The
increased movement of heavy vehicles carrying construction materials, operation of DG
Page 122
sets as standby power back up system would generate gaseous emissions. However as
DG sets are used as standby, the impacts are insignificant. The degree of dust
generated would depend on the soil compaction and moisture content of the ground
surface during construction. Dust and exhaust particulate emissions from heavy
equipment operations would temporarily degrade air quality in the immediate
construction zone. The increase in air particulates would be minimized by the
performance of the work. The construction contractor will visually monitor dust levels on
the site during construction. Dust suppression will be instituted, using water tankers
mounted on tractors, sprinklers and other means as necessary, in the event that high
levels of dust are observed, strong winds and dry conditions make dust generation likely,
and complaints about dust are received.
13.4.2 Impacts during construction of Noise Quality
Construction activities normally result in temporary and short duration increases in noise
levels. The main sources of noise during construction period include movement of
vehicles for loading and unloading of construction materials, fabrication, handling of
equipment and materials, operation of concrete mixing plants, generators etc. The areas
affected are those close to the site.
Under the worst case scenario, considered for prediction of noise levels during
construction phase, it has been assumed that all these equipments generate noise from a
common point at an average noise level of 85 dB (A).
13.4.3 Impacts of Construction Wastes
The generation of waste material is inevitable during the construction phase of the
development. Waste is generated at different stages of construction process. Waste
during construction activity relates to excessive cement mix or concrete left after work is
over, rejection caused due to change in design or wrong workmanship etc. Excavation of
earth and rock generates muck. Other wastes include top soil, clay, sand, and gravel.
These are normally re-used as filler at the same site after completion of excavation work.
Other miscellaneous materials that arise as waste include glass, plastic material, general
refuse, scrap metal, cardboard, plastics, and sewage wastes from the construction
workers housing. Construction waste is bulky and heavy and is mostly unsuitable for
Page 123
disposal by incineration or composting. Unutilized or unused solid wastes generated
during construction will be disposed of to a designated landfill sites in the project area.
13.5 Impacts during Operation
13.5.1 Impacts during operation of Air Quality
None of the proposed structures of STP, Pumping Stations etc at the project site would be
expected to have an impact on air quality during their normal operation.
13.5.2 Impacts during operation of Noise Quality
None of the proposed structures of STP, Pumping Stations at the project site would be
expected to have an impact on Noise during their normal operation.
13.6 Mitigation Measures
13.6.1 Mitigation Measures of Air Quality
Since the project involves large-scale construction (Sewage Treatment Plant, laying of
pipes, etc) of activity the negative impacts on the air quality would be significant during
this phase. The impact on the air quality due to the operation of construction machineries
in the site is found to be insignificant given the vast area of the proposed project site.
However, the negative impacts created as a result of movement of construction vehicles
needs critical attention. For mitigation of these impacts following measures are suggested:
 Vehicles transporting construction materials prone to fugitive dust emissions should
be covered.
 Trucks carrying sand should be provided with tarpaulin sheets to cover the bed and
sides of the trucks.
 Idling of delivery trucks or other equipment should not be permitted during loading
and unloading
 All construction vehicles should comply with air emission standards and be
maintained properly.
 Dust suppression measures in addition to the traffic management should be followed
on the roads.
Page 124
13.6.2 Mitigation Measures of Land Environment
The solid waste generated during the construction phase is usually Excavated earth
material and Construction debris. Excavated earth material will be reused for backfilling
between foundations; to fill up the low-lying areas and whereas, topsoil will be reused for
Landscaping/Greenbelt development purpose.
13.6.3 Mitigation Measures of water quality
 Construction equipment requiring minimum water for cooling and operation for
optimum effectiveness should be chosen.
 High pressure hose should be used for cleaning and dust suppression purposes.
 Appropriate sanitation facilities, septic tank and soak pits should be provided for the
workers onsite and offsite to reduce impact on water resources
 Discharge of construction wastes to surface water bodies or ground water should not
be allowed during construction.
 During construction period in rainy season, the water quality is likely to be affected
due to the construction work and loosening of topsoil. This is likely to increase the
suspended solids in the run – off during heavy precipitation. In order to reduce the
impact on water quality, temporary sedimentation tanks shall be constructed for the
settlement of suspended matter. However, it is envisaged that the monsoon period
will be avoided for cutting and filling of earthwork.
13.7 Socio Economic Impacts of the Proposed Project
The project will generate employment opportunities to the local people. There will also be
secondary growth that will create self-employment opportunities for the local villagers like
small hotels, shops etc., which would lead to improvement in the quality of the life of the
local population. The positive impact of the proposed activity is expected during the start-
up of construction activities. Besides the local population would have employment
opportunities in service activities, contracts and supply of construction materials. This will
lead to economic up-liftment of the area.
Page 125
13.8 Potential Environmental Impact Matrix
This methodology incorporates a list of project activities with a checklist of environmental

components that might be affected. Matrix methods incorporate environmental conditions
on one axis and proposed actions on the other.
The impact of each action on various environmental components are filled in a tabular
format to estimate the impacts may be either qualitative, insignificant, high, adverse,
beneficial or quantitative by assessing a numerical score, but in the end there should be a
grand total to signify the magnitude of the impact. The activities discussed above are likely
to affect the environment in varying degrees. Relevant components of environment, which
are likely to experience some impacts due to the proposed project activities, have been
identified.
Environmental parameters are broadly classified under three following groups considering
the cause - effect relationship:
 Physical Environment
 Biological Environment
 Non Biophysical Components (NBP)
The parameters selected for impact identification are site activities and project specific.
Different parameters considered under the said groups are as follows:
 Ambient Air Quality

 Noise
 Soil stability / erosion
 Vegetation
 Resource use
 Health
 Socio economic
The interaction between project activities and environmental parameters described above
are shown in the impact matrix in the Table below, the matrix points out each activity and
its impact on specific environmental parameters. This is a qualitative work and does not
indicate quantitative impact. Some of the impacts are temporary and localized and some
impacts are short term and long term in the matrix.
Page 126
The predicted impacts of the proposed project have been discussed in Table below. The
environmental management measures to reduce the adverse impacts are detailed in this
Section.

13.9 CONCLUSION
To summarize; from the proposed project in ULB, the following beneficial and adverse
impacts can be attributed,
 The proposed project will have positive impacts on the socio-economic

environment of the study area. The project will provide direct and indirect
employment for Technical, Skilled, and unskilled personnel.
 Improvement of resources: Reuse of tertiary quality of treated sewage can be used
in sustainable landscaping irrigation, to recharge ground water aquifers, to meet
commercial and industrial water needs. Also it can be used for stream flow
augmentation to benefit ecosystems and improve aesthetics.
 The project provides the reuse of treated sewage can be utilised for water
reclamation and non potable uses such as: Washing cars, flushing toilets, cooling
water for power plants, concrete mixing, artificial lakes, irrigation for golf courses
and public parks, and for hydraulic fracturing. Where applicable, systems run a
dual piping system to keep the recycled water separate from the potable water.
 Dust suppression measures in addition to the traffic management should be
followed.
 The sewage generated from the city will be treated in sewage treatment plant.
 Regular monitoring of air, water and noise parameters shall be carried out and to
keep a check on routine compliance of statutory requirements.
Certain positive and negative impact may be encountered during the implementation of
the proposed project.
The proponent, APUFIDC strongly believe in the concept of sustainable development and
understand the impacts as identified above from the proposed project and shall take all
measures to mitigate such negative impacts and also lay emphasis on the implementation
of the recommendations of the Environmental Management Plan in true spirits.
