5. SOIL & WASTE WATER DRAINAGE SYSTEM

5.1 INTRODUCTION

Page 8
 PROJECT NAME: PROPOSED ICOMC & BMC building Complex
R0
OF 4
PHE DESIGN REPORT

Domestic drainage has been designed as two pipe system as per IS codes and standards.
Vertical stacks from toilets, pantry/kitchen etc., has been taken separately .Vent pipe is
provided for soil stack (soil venting) as well as waste pipes, which is extended above
terrace level. The minimum diameter of the vertical soil stack is 110mm. All fixtures and
appliances are fully trapped to prevent back flow of foul gases and odour into the toilets.

The soil and waste stack are connected to the main header which is running below the
basement ceiling with adequate slope to achieve the smooth flow (self cleaning velocity)
in the system and finally connected to the centralized sewage treatment plant.

5.2 BASIS OF DESIGN

The system of sizing pipes is based on fixture units as follows:

Water Closet (Tank Operated): 4 Units

Kitchen Sink : 2 Units

Wash Basin : 1 Unit

P traps : 1 Unit

5.3 MATERIAL SPECIFICATION

Best quality sanitary fixtures and chromium plated fitting shall be used. The
Client/Architect shall select the model numbers. Each toilet shall be provided with
European water closets with health faucets/ablution tap, washbasins with pillar cock,

urinals with sensor operated flushing system. Standard accessories like toilet paper
holders, towel rings, liquid soap dispenser, and mirror shall be provided. These buildings
are designed for LEED standards, hence low flow sanitary fixtures are proposed for this
project
Drainage pipes shall be SWR type A for vent and Type B for soil and waste water drainage
application. The drainage pipes and fittings 50mm diameter and below shall be PVC pipe
of class 6kg/sqcm has been proposed.

6. SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT

Enormous volumes of untreated waste water are discharged everyday as sewage and
industrial effluent which pollute water bodies in which they are released. There is an
urgent need therefore to treat and also recycles this waste water thereby reducing the
burden of fresh water sources. The capacity of the STP refer in load sheet and it is
suggested with Sequential Batch Reactor technology .
The object of sewage treatment is to stabilize decomposable organic matter present in
the sewage so as to produce treated effluent and sludge, which can be disposed of in the
environment without causing health hazards or nuisance. The degree of treatment to be
adopted should not only meet the requirements of regulatory agencies but also result in
the maximum use of end products consistent with economy.

Semac Recommendation:

 Recommendations for Modular type STP of SBR technology: Greater flexibility in

operation due batch process which shall take a minimum load by providing
bifurcation in SBR tanks. It takes less space (80%) than regular extended aeration and
activated sludge process since aeration and settling are taking place in a single SBR
tank. No sludge recirculation is required and MLSS is retained in the aeration/SBR
tank itself. Operator interaction is very minimal in PLC/timer controlled plants. The
location of the proposed STP should be at central area should be ideal to avoid any
head room clearance for drainage pipe installation.

PHE DESIGN REPORT

6.1 SBR (Sequential Batch Reactor) technology

SBR technology treats sewage in batches. The aeration and clarification takes place in a
single reactor, hence space required for the plant is lesser.

Source : Domestic.

Inlet raw water parameters : BOD5 – 300 – 350 mg/ltr.

COD – 500 - 600 mg/ltr.
TSS – 100-150 mg/ltr.
pH – 6.5 – 8.0

Outlet Treated water parameters : BOD5 < 10 mg/ltr.

COD < 60 mg/ltr.
TSS < 10 mg/ltr.
pH – 6.5 – 8.0
E-coli – NIL
TURBIDITY < 2NTU
RES-CHLORINE>1MG/L

The treated water from STP, should meet state pollution control board norms, which
will be fit for re-use for gardening, HVAC applications and flushing purposes.

6.2 DESIGN BASIS

a) The treated water should be fit for re-use for gardening / flushing & HVAC Make
Up water requirement.
b) The treated water should fit not only from the view point of re-use for the
purposes mentioned above, but also should be hygienically safe, so that people’s
health is least affected due to contact with treated water or by its spray and
consequent biological aerosol.
c) The treated water should be such that its continuous use even for very long
periods does not make the soil “SEWAGE SICK”, nor will it affect the other
processes.

Page 11
 PROJECT NAME: PROPOSED ICOMC & BMC building Complex
R0

PHE DESIGN REPORT

d) The treated garden water, with a BOD 5 of less than 10 mg/ltr, and TSS of less than
10 mg/ltr. Should be clear, free from any odour and its re-use should not create fly
nuisance.
e) The proposed STP should be economical in terms of initial capital cost and
operating cost and at the same time versatile enough to deliver the desired output
in terms of quality parameters on continuous basis. Further the plant should be
easily operatable by semi-skilled personnel.
f) Replacements, if any, at a later date, should be easily available locally and at short
notice period.
g) The technology proposed should be time tested and must be under use already
elsewhere for similar applications, particularly in tropical environments.
h) The structures for STP should be compact in size / layout and be impervious and
water tight to avoid drifting of odour and ground water pollution.
i) The Plant should meet state pollution control board norms in all respects for
urban re-use.
j) The plant should be expandable in modular form.
k) The STP should have built-in flexibility to handle variations in flows /
characteristics, with or without simple modifications in process and without
incurring major additional expenses.

6.3 TREATMENT SCHEME

Primary Treatment:

The raw sewage will be received at the inlet of the bar screen to trap any floating
particles and debris. The effluent overflows to the collection cum equalization tank.
Equalization tank will be fitted with coarse bubble aeration system for homogenizing
the sewage and also to keep it fresh during storage. This Sewage is then transferred
to a downstream Sequencing batch reactor by sewage transfer pump

Page 12
 PROJECT NAME: PROPOSED ICOMC & BMC building Complex

PHE DESIGN REPORT

Secondary Treatment:

Like other biological effluent treatment processes the Sequencing Batch Reactor,
works by developing mixed culture of bacteria (biomass) which is effective for
removal of BOD, COD and nutrients commonly found in sewage. The SBR is a fill and
draw, non steady state of activated sludge process in which one or more reactor
basins are filled with waste water during a discrete time period and then operated on
batch mode. In a single reactor basin the SBR accomplishes anoxic mixing, aeration
and settling in a timed sequence.
A single cycle for each reactor consists of five discrete period of FILL, REACT, SETTLE,
DECANT and IDLE. The nitrification and denitrification is easily achieved.

Tertiary Treatment:
The treated water from the SBR is overflowed into a the Prefiltration tank /Decant
Tank, from where it is fed for tertiary treatment using a Pressure Sand Filter – for
removal of suspended solids, and Activated Carbon Filter – for removal of residual
color and odour.
Finally the treated water is disinfected using hypo chloride solution (Chlorine) using a
metering pump to regulate the dosage of chlorine.
(Vendor has to suggest and design suitable treatment units based on the treated
water quality.)

The treated water is then fit for use in Gardening, Feeding HVAC as well toilet flush.

Sludge Handling:
The excess Sludge from the aeration tank will be taken out at regular intervals either
to a sludge holding tank and dewatered through filter press, or the sludge is pumped
to sludge drying beds for dewatering.

6.4 ADVANTAGES OF SBR SYSTEM

Page 13
 PROJECT NAME: PROPOSED ICOMC & BMC building Complex

PHE DESIGN REPORT

- All Biological treatment carried out in a single tank and is TIME-BASED

- Lower Equalisation Tank volume.
- Reduced power consumption.
- Ease operation & maintenance

6.5 END USE

The end product, which is the treated effluent water, will be used for flushing (EWC &
UR), landscaping, and HVAC applications which reduces the consumption of fresh
water. After softening only, water can be used for HVAC purposes.

7. RAIN /STORM WATER MANAGEMENT

7.1 CONCEPT

All vertical down takes are designed for an intensity of 160mm/hr. (For 15min. Storm).
Minimum dia of vertical down take shall be 160/200mm.However rain water pipe of
suitable diameter has been proposed. These vertical rain water pipes from terrace floor
will discharge the rainwater to header pipe running along ground floor ceiling & finally

connected to the roof top harvesting tank which is located at the ground floor and excess
water shall pump to the external networks which is leading to the municipal network.

The site run - off shall be routed through the network of external storm water drain with
recharge pits. And excess water will be diverted to external storm drain either by gravity
or pumping. The basement floor/carwash, sprinkler breakdown, ramp run-off will be
taken care of by Basement drainage water collection sump of suitable capacity.

7.2 MATERIAL SPECIFICATION

Rain water pipes shall be SWR type A up to 160mm diameter and PVC pipes of
6kg/sq.cm shall be considered for 200mm diameter and above.

7.3 SYSTEM DESIGN

 Based on the annual rainfall at Bhuvaneshwar climatologically, we have considered

maximum intensity of rainfall at 160 mm/hr to calculate the sizes of storm water
drains.
 The frictional co-efficient of the open drains is considered to be 0.015 and the
percentage of paved and unpaved area considered is 80 – 20, with a run-off co-
efficient of 0.7 for paved area and 0.3 for unpaved area respectively.
 Considering Rainfall intensity : 160mm /hr
 Multiple rain water harvest pits at various location.
 Catchments pit at each change in flow direction & at each change pipe diameter with
horizontal and vertical grating depending upon the road sections,
 Design of networking on the basis of Site topography,
 Sizing by Rational formula.

7.4 STORM WATER DRAINAGE ESTIMATION

Page 15
 PROJECT NAME: PROPOSED ICOMC & BMC building Complex

OF 4
PHE DESIGN REPORT

The co-efficient of permeability factors that are considered for the estimation of the
actual discharge are as follows:

 Open grounds, unpaved street: 0.1 – 0.3.

 Parks, Lawns, and gardens: 0.1 – 0.25.

 Macadam roads, Pavements: 0.25 – 0.7.

 Watertight roof surface: 0.90 – 0.95.

 The Intensity of Rainfall considered is 160mm/hr.

 Rational formula has been adopted for the estimation of discharge.

 80% of the total area is considered as paved area.

 20% of the total area is considered as unpaved area.

 Slope of the drain is assumed as 1/500.

 Invert level of drain is governed by the criteria of slope of the ground or slope
of the drain whichever is higher (to keep the drain parallel to the road).

 Continuity equation is considered for estimating the drain section.

7.5 BASEMENT & EXTERNALSTORM WATER DISPOSAL

The basement drainage water shall be diverted in drains & pipe network to the collection
sumps. The water shall be pumped to the peripheral drain.
Wing wise:
Water demand for each sprinkler – 45lpm
Incase of fire – No of sprinklers bursting at a time – 40nos
Retention time: 5mins
Total runoff – 9000ltrs
Say 10KL each phase.

The basement floor/carwash, sprinkler breakdown, ramp run-off shall be taken care
of by storm water collection sump and pumping to the external storm water drain

network. The excess site run - off shall be diverted to the peripheral open drains and
excess water will lead to the external municipal drain eventually.

7.6 RAIN WATER HARVESTING SYSTEM

Keeping in mind the importance of water and it scarcity it is proposed to conserve water
by rainwater by harvesting which the subsoil water condition / moisture content is
maintained improved to a great extent.

TYPES AND METHODS OF HARVESTING

a) RE-CHARGE PITS/PERCOLATION PITS

 The collecting rainwater from roof area, external surface water and harvest
the same for recharging the under Ground water table. For this, all feasible
rain water pipe from each duct is connected to the storm water drain at
ground level.
 Recharging of the ground water by rain water harvesting pits, running
alongside the drain and the water collected from the premises of the
buildings and external surface water shall be diverted to peripheral storm
water drain. The excess water will be allowed to municipal drain after
filtration( to remove 80%TSS and 20% phosphorus as per LEED)

b) RAIN WATER HARVESTING TANK

We have considered Rain Water Harvesting and Conservation Manual CPWD New
Delhi guideline for rainwater harvesting (min 10ltrs/sqm of plinth area), an effective
scheme for rainwater disposal has been designed. The run-off rainwater from roof of
the building will be drained out effectively by providing sufficient no. of rainwater
outlets / khurras and heavy duty / PVC down take pipes designed to handle the
intensity / flow of rainwater.

Page 17
 PROJECT NAME: PROPOSED ICOMC & BMC building Complex

PHE DESIGN REPORT

These rain water pipes are located in the toilet shaft and or along the periphery of the
building. These pipes are routed with necessary slope and dropped vertically down to
GL. The rain water pipes finally will be conveyed to the harvesting tank. The
harvesting tank of suitable capacity is proposed. The water will be transferred to the
raw water tank in seasonal time in order to suffix the building water requirement. The
overflow from the tank will be allowed to the external drain by gravity (if level
permits) or will be pump to the external drain.

7.7 PRECAUTIONS FOR HARVESTING

a) Online filter will be provided in lines before entering to the harvesting tank.
b) Flushing OHT drain pipe will be taken separately thereby preventing the mixing with
roof rain water.

8. SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

Quantity of solid waste generation is estimated as tabulated below. The waste suitable
for recycling shall be handed over to the recyclers and rest of the waste shall be handed
over to the municipal waste collection vehicles. In house treatment of organic waste is
recommended considering that the output (manure) can be utilized within the project
due to availability of landscape area or can be sold to third parties.
