CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Overview
The main reason that we developed the water recycle system is to protect human
health. The technology available to do this has become more efficient and
effective over the years and new methods are still being found today.
We treat Raw Effluent to-
Avoid drinking water contamination
Avoid food contamination
Avoid ecological damage via eutrophication
This manual provides guidelines for operation and maintenance of Effluent
Treatment plant. It provides starting operation and maintenance of equipment
supplied for the plant. Do read through the guidelines in this manual prior to
actual start of the plant.

B. OUTLET WATER QUALITY
ASSUMPTIONS
1. The plant is designed to operate at +/- 10 % variation in raw wastewater
parameter.
2. No other parameters other than mentioned above is present in the raw
waste water which is beyond Pollution Control Norms and hazardous to
microorganisms.
3. Treated water quality will be achieved if the inlet raw water quality is as
per the raw water quality mentioned as well as no other pollutant than the
mentioned, is present or exceeds the limits or which is hazardous in
nature, which otherwise may affect the biological treatment process.

CHAPTER II
PROCESS DESCRIPTION
To have eco-friendly & natural treatment, this plant is designed based on the
biological treatment concept. This means naturally occurring microbes (which
are present in sewage water itself) removes or degrade the organic matter
present in the sewage & at the end clean water is available for the non-potable
usage or to dispose safely in the drainage or river bodies as per the norms.
1. Pre – Treatment
Screening: This is the first units of the plant in which large or floating
materials in the sewage gets arrested and blockage or choking of the
downstream equipment’s can be avoided. This arrested material will be
removed manually and then will be disposed off suitably.
If at site, septic tank is provided then collection tank as well as air agitation is
not required.
Transfer Pumps transfer the wastewater from equalization tank or lift station to
the process tank. The transfer pumps are automatically activated by the Level
Switch in a lead/lag arrangement according to the level in the tank.

2. Secondary Treatment
Flash Mixer:
A flash mixer is a chamber that contains mechanical stirrers, which is designed
to assure fast, thorough, mixing of lime and alum for the purpose of creating
floc.
After screening out debris and testing the raw water, water treatment really
begins at the flash mix chamber. Here, chemicals are added to the water,
primarily to aid in coagulation and flocculation. In the flash mixer, the water is
agitated violently for a short period of time before being released into the
flocculation basin.
Flocculator:
Flocculation requires gentle mixing and the use of a high molecular weight
polymeric flocculant. The flocculant adsorbs to the submicron flocs and
facilitates bridging of gaps between flocs. Bringing particles closer together
creates the effective range for Van Der Waals attraction forces to reduce the
energy barrier for flocculation and loosely packed flocs form. Aggregation,
binding, and strengthening of flocs occurs until visibly suspended macroflocs
form. At the right weight, size, and strength sedimentation occurs. Macroflocs
are very sensitive to mixing and once torn apart by strong shear it is difficult or
impossible for them to reform.
Tube Setteler:
Tube settlers use multiple tubular channels sloped at an angle of 60° and adjacent
to each other, which combine to form an increased effective settling area. This
6
provides for a particle settling depth that is significantly less than the settling
depth of a conventional clarifier, reducing settling times.
Tube settlers capture the settleable fine floc that escapes the clarification zone
beneath the tube settlers and allows the larger floc to travel to the tank bottom in a
more settleable form. The tube settler’s channel collects solids into a compact
mass which promotes the solids to slide down the tube channel.

3. TERTIARY TREATMENT
A. COARSE FILTRATION
The raw water is first passed through a Multigrade sand filter to reduce the
suspended solids present in the raw water. The filter will have to be washed with
the help of raw water for 10 to 15 mins daily. This filter is provided to keep a
check on the suspended solids.
B. ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER
Activated Carbon Filter shall be used for De-chlorination of filtered water,
where the excess chlorine will be removed along with undesired color & odor

CHAPTER VI
MAINTEINANCE
1. The Effluent Treatment plant should be inspected every three months and any
damaged paint work or vessels, pipe work and valves renewed.
33
4. If it is necessary for maintenance personnel to enter any of the treatment units,
rubber or soft solved shoes must be worn and great care taken to avoid damage
to any rubber lining and internal lateral systems.
5. Entry into the vessels or tanks should be avoided unless required in case of
emergency but if unavoidable, must be carried out under the supervision of our
supervisor.
6. Valves should be inspected regularly and gland packing where used should be
replaced regularly.
The duties of Plant Operator may be classed under the following general outline:
To ensure that the plant consistently produces a sewage of no lower quality than
it was designed to produce.
To see that all operating details are performed promptly and efficiently. This is
best accomplished by establishing a routine schedule of operation
To carry out or arrange for all required laboratory analysis and tests of the
sewage passing through the plant as to maintain proper efficiency in operation
34
To maintain all equipment and structures of the plant in good order and
condition
To keep proper records of operation & maintenance jobs including spare part
costs and consumed man hours.
To ensure that all precautions necessary for the safety of personnel and property
are observed.
To bring the notice of the engineer any alteration work, or facilities which may
be necessary to place or maintain the plant in efficient operation

CHAPTER VII
SAFETY
7.1 Objectives
39
The primary objective of safety measures is to reduce the chance of injury to plant
personnel or visitors. The design of this plant incorporates a number of safety
features for the purpose of providing a safe place to work.
The Operator has the responsibility for the Plant and must see to it that it is
maintained in such a manner that a safe place to work is continuously provided.
This can only be done by constantly acting and thinking safety.
The Operator has the responsibility of protecting himself and other plant personnel
or visitors by seeing that proper safety procedures are followed.
All operation personnel should train themselves to analyze jobs, work areas and
procedures from a safety standpoint. Potentially hazardous actions or conditions
shall be recognized.
Behind every accident there was a chain of events, which led to an unsafe act,
unsafe condition, or a combination of both.
The type of equipment and structures required by a Sewage Treatment Plant can be
very hazardous. For this reason, the design of the plant has included a number of
safety features to help minimize the risk of injury to the plant personnel. But even
the best of safety measures are of no value if established safety procedures are not
40
followed. If an accident occurs, it is equally necessary to know what steps to take to
minimize further injury and damage.
This section describes potential safety hazards of the Plant and recommends ways to
avoid or minimize these hazards. However, you should not rely upon the
information presented here exclusively, because work habits and method of
operation and maintenance that develop over the life of the plant may introduce
additional hazards. As conditions will change continually, it is extremely important
that all personnel always be on the lookout for potentially hazardous actions or
conditions.
Physical Injuries
Chemical Burns
Fire
Electrical Shock
Noise
Emergency eyewash is located at the Plant for washing hazardous chemicals off the
skin and out of the eyes. All plant personnel should know where the emergency
eyewash is located.
42
Toxic or suffocating gases or vapors may come from any of the chemicals used in
the treatment process. You are especially subject to this hazard when chemicals are
in contact with water or when working with chemicals in enclosed and unventilated
areas.
Because toxic gases and vapors can rapidly disable a person, it is important to
constantly be alert to conditions of unusually strong vapors and fumes or situations
where you might be subject to hazardous concentrations of toxic vapors or fumes.
Take immediate actions to correct any unusual situation.
Chlorine is a particularly hazardous gas. All personnel should know the proper ways
to handle chlorine and should be trained in the use of self-contained breathing
apparatus.
7.2.5 Fire
Burns from fire can cause very serious injury. Avoid the accumulation of flammable
material and store any material of this type in approved containers at proper
locations. Note the location of firefighting equipment and the proper use of the
equipment.
7.2.7 Noise
Loud noise from Air Blowers can cause permanent ear damage. Personnel need to
wear proper ear protecting devices whenever working in noisy areas.
When working with the filter, you must be particularly careful not to bump, scrape,
or cut yourself on the internal water distribution and collection piping and piping
supports.
Other hazards associated with the chemical addition systems include cuts, bruises,
broken bones and head injuries due to tripping over or bumping into piping systems.
Always be careful of where you walk and be aware of the location of overhead
piping. Always wear a hard-hat when working around overhead piping.
Some chemicals may come bagged as a dry powder that must be loaded in the top of
a mixing tank. Never attempt to carry bags of chemicals up a ladder. Never attempt
to lift a bag that seems too heavy. If a bag seems too heavy to lift, it probably is. Get
assistance.
Whenever adding dry chemicals to a mixing tank, you are particularly subject to
coming into contact with the chemical or inhaling its dust. Always wear protective
clothing and a dust mask when handling dry chemicals.
44
Whenever working on chemical tank platforms, you are at risk of falling to the
ground or into a tank. Such falls may cause serious injuries or drowning. Whenever
working on raised platforms, stairways or ladders, be certain that you have a clean,
firm surface to stand on. Remove all slimes, rags, greases, or other material that may
cause you to slip. Good housekeeping in these areas is mandatory.
Railings should be installed along the tank side of all walkways. Railings should
also be installed on all stairways. Do not work outside of these railings, they are
there to help prevent you from falling. Keep all railings and walking surfaces in
good repair.
7.3.2.1 Chlorine
As chlorine is extensively used, some aspects with this chemical is dealt with in
particular.
Chlorine is a very active chemical that reacts readily with most forms of living
tissue as other organic and inorganic materials, metals and non-metals. This
reactivity also allows its use in oxidizing objectionable chemicals in waste.
However, because of its reactivity, chlorine is difficult to handle, while its toxicity
makes it hazardous if it is not properly handled and controlled.
If exposed to this chemical in a hazardous way, the patient shall in all cases be
removed immediately from the contaminated area, a physician called and
appropriate first aid must begin immediately. A brief outline of first aid measures
for exposure to chlorine is as follows:
Eyes
In case chemical is splashed into the eye (no matter the quantity), quick action is
vital. The patient should be laid down, using force if necessary, the eyelids should
be held apart and the eyes flushed copiously with running water (a boric saline
solution may also be used). The flushing should be continued for about 15 minutes
and repeated if necessary. The patient should be encouraged to roll his eyes during
45
the operation. No medication should be attempted except under specific instruction
from a physician.
Skin
The patient should be placed under a shower immediately, clothes and all. Clothing
should be removed while the shower is running and the skin washed with larger
quantities of soap and water. Neutralization of chlorine with chemicals should not
be attempted. Salves or ointments should not be applied, except as directed by a
physician.
Inhalation
If the patient is breathing, he should be placed in a comfortable position, and kept
warm and rest until a physician arrives. If breathing seems to have stopped, artificial
respiration should begin immediately. Mouth to mouth resuscitation or any
approved method may be used.
Oxygen should be administered if equipment and trained personnel are available.
Automatic artificial respiration is considered preferable to manual, but only when
administered by an experienced Operator. Some rest is recommended after severe
chlorine exposure.
Throat Irritation
Drinking milk will relieve the discomforts of throat irritation from chlorine
exposure. Emergency rules given by a physician should be followed. In the absence
of such rules, the first aid steps above are suggested.
Collecting Samples
Rubber gloves must be worn when your hands may come in contact with sewage
and/or chemicals. When you have finished sampling, always wash the gloves
thoroughly before removing them. After removing the gloves, wash your hands
thoroughly.
7.4 Fire Prevention
Fires are a serious threat to the health and safety of the Operator and to the
buildings and equipment in the Treatment Plant. Fires may injure or cause the
death of a person. Equipment damaged by fire may no longer work properly and
the Plant may have difficulty to function.
Know where fire extinguishers and hoses are kept and know where possible yard
hydrants are located. Find out what each is for and how to use them. You can
prevent fires by:
7.6 Housekeeping
Good housekeeping can and has prevented many accidents. When tools and
equipment are not being used, see that they are kept in their proper place. Clean
up all spills of oil, grease, and other substances. Keep walkways and work areas
clean. Provide proper containers for waste, oily rags, papers, etc. and empty these
frequently.
