Sewage Treatment
Plant (STP) 40 KLD
FOR
STORAGE:
Water demand is calculated based on the guidelines of NBC. Total quantity of water
requirement for the proposed project is estimated to be about 41.85 KLD during the
operation phase.
By considering 95 % of the water supplied will be converted in to sewage i.e. 39.76 KLD.
Wastewater generated from the proposed project will be treated in an STP of 40 KLD.
Detailed design write up of the STP is in the following section.
The sewage generated during the operation phase will be treated up to the tertiary level
in Sewage Treatment Plants (STP) The entire (100%) treated sewage from STP of 40
KLD capacity will be recycled/ reused for toilet flushing, car washing and landscaping
in the project site excess will be used for avenue plantation/Sewer.

Design Detail of Sewage Treatment Plant with
The sequential batch reactor (SBR) process is a cyclic activated sludge treatment process.
Multiple reactors are provided to treat the wastewater in batches. Sequencing batch
reactors will be operated to oxidize carbonaceous BOD, nitrify the ammonia and
denitrify to reduce total nitrogen to a level that meets the permit limits. All treatment
processes including equalization, aeration, denitrification, and sedimentation and
decanting occur in the SBR’s eliminating the need for separate clarification and return
activated sludge systems.
1. The reactor is allowed to fill with raw wastewater. The filling phase is often
divided into stages that include aeration to reduce BOD and to nitrify ammonia
and then mixing without aeration to promote denitrification (removal of
nitrogen).
4. A decanting phase is provided to draw off the clarified effluent from the upper
portion of the reactor
5. Often a small idle phase is provided to allow time for miscellaneous operations
that may need to occur to keep the reactors in sequence.
Wasting of the biological solids that are produced by converting BOD to bacteria needs
to occur periodically to maintain the design mixed liquor concentration and sludge age.
Wasting can occur at any time in the process sequence. Frequently, wasting is performed
following the decant phase when sludge concentration is highest or during react phase
when the sludge concentration is consistent.
The SBR’s will be equipped with diffused aeration and decanting facilities. The discharge
from SBR systems is higher than the inflow because the same volume of water that
entered the SBR is discharged over a shorter time period. The treated water from SBR is
pumped through the Pressure sand filter and Activated carbon filter for removal of
suspended solids, final polishing and removal of any traces of colour. The effluent is then
disinfected with Chlorine by intermittent dosing system. The treated sewage can be used
for chillers and flushing purposes. Excess sludge from SBR tank is pumped out
periodically to the Sludge holding tank and then fed in to the Filter press for dewatering
and drying during decanting phase.

Data & Assumption:-
Design:
2. Equalization Tank:
Design average flow = 40 KLD
Detention Time = 12 Hr
Volume of Equalization tank = 40.0 m3
Equalization tank dimension = 4.0m x 4.0m x 2.5m
3. Bio Reactor:
No. of. Tanks = 1 No.
No. of. Sequential Batch = 1 Nos.
Cycle duration = 16 Hr each
Average flow to the reactor, Q = 40 KLD
Total BOD entering STP, Y0 = 400mg/L
BOD of the Effluent, YE = 10mg/L
BOD removal to be achieved = 390mg/L
MLSS, X = 4000mg/L
Influent VSS, Xt = 4000 x 0.8 = 3200mg/L

Bio reactor volume, V= 40.0 m3
Each Bio reactor dimension = 4.25 x 4.25m x 2.5m
4. Decant Tank:
Unlike Other treatment processes, in SBR the Clarified water tank is designed to
hold decanted supernatant from each batch, i.e., 25.0 m3/batch.
Thus Clarified Water Tank dimension = 3m x 3m x 2.75m
The wastewater after biological treatment still contains some solids, colour, odour
and harmful micro-organisms. The pressure sand filter and activated carbon filter are
used to remove the solids and colour. The disinfection process is used to remove the
micro-organisms and odour.
Pressure sand filter with various grades of pebbles and sand media help in the
removal of residual suspended solids. The filter will be operating in the pressure
range of 3-3.5 kg/cm2.
Residual suspended solids. The filter will be operating in the pressure range of 3-3.5
kg/cm2.
Assuming a loading rate of 2.5 m3/ hr

The recommended PSF dimension is 1.2 m dia and height 3 m. Suitable designed
backwashing system is adopted.
Considering the same parameters for designing the activated carbon filter, the
recommended dimensions for ACF is 1.2 m Dia and height 3.0 m
