22.2 Mechanical Detritor

22.2.1 Working Principle


A compact grit plant consists of a Square Grit Settlement Chamber with scrapers, reciprocating type
mechanical classifier, and organic return screw pump. The grit chamber is designed on the principle of
differential sedimentation.
By producing suitable conditions of flow and retention time, the grit particle contents in a sewage flow
can be separated from the putrescible organic matter and settled out of the flow by virtue of its higher
settling velocities leaving bulk of organic matter in suspension. The bottom scour velocity of scraper is
so adjusted that the organic particles, if settled any, are re-suspended back in the sewage and the grit is
pushed towards the opening of the classifier at the bottom level.
The Classifier, during its reciprocating action, washes the grit and pushes it towards the upper delivery
end of the classifier from where the washed grit is released on scrapers or trolleys for further disposal. In
the reciprocating classifier, there are no movable parts
under the sewage and thus there is very negligible wear of the components.
The Organic return pump (screw pumps) returns the washed organic material from the grit back to the
grit chamber and the same is kept in suspension and passed on further for treatment.

22.2.2 Units of Mechanical Grit Removal System (Detritor)

ANNEXURE-I
RAIN WATER HARVESTING
Roof top rain water harvesting is to be done for all buildings. The system shall confirm to the details
and specifications in the relevant document published by Central Ground Water Board, Ministry of Water
Resources. The following technical criteria, to be taken into consideration while designing rain water
harvesting system.
Ø Hydrogeology of the area, nature and aerial extent of the aquifers
Ø Nature & type of soil cover
Ø Quantity and intensity of rainfall specially one hour peak rainfall
Ø Clogging potential i.e. silt content of source water
Ø Topography/applicable methods (infection or infiltration)
Ø All recharge structures shall be designed based on availability of space, run off, depth of water table
and lithology of the area.
General methods to be adopted are described below:
Rain water from roof of building should be collected at one or more places through rainwater drain pipes
extended upto the bottom of the building. Then collected water should be diverted into a sump called
filter chamber of required size and from sump to recharging pits or other components through RCC pipe
of required size and thickness/strength. The bottom half of the filter chamber has to be filled with broken
bricks/blue metal/ pebbles and followed by a layer of coarse sand. A nylon mesh has to be provided in
between the two layers. The top portion of filter chamber should be covered with RCC slab. The inlet
rain water drain pipe should be on the top of the filter chamber and outlet pipe connecting the filter
chamber to the recharging structure should be at the bottom. One filter chamber should not be connected
to more than 25 square meter area of roof of any building. The rain water then should be diverted towards
recharging structure which may be of following types:
A Recharging Pits
· In alluvial area where permeable rocks are exposed on the land surface or at very shallow depth,
roof top rain water harvesting can be done through recharge pits.
· This technique is suitable for buildings having a roof area of 100 square meters and is
constructed for recharging the shallow aquifers.
· Recharge pits may be of any shape and size and shall generally be constructed 1m to 2m wide
and 2m to 3m deep which shall be back filled with boulders (5-20 cm.) gravels (5-10mm) and
coarse sand (1.5-2mm) in graded from- Boulders at the bottom, gravels in between and coarse
sand at the top. For smaller roof area pit may be filled with broken bricks/cobbles.
· A mesh should be provided at the roof so that leaves or any other solid waste/ debris is prevented
from entering the filter chamber/pit.

Executive Engineer Witness Contractors 153


B Recharge Trench
· Recharge trenches are suitable for buildings having roof area of 200-300 square meters and
where permeable strata are available at shallow depths.
· Trench may be 0.5 to 1 meter wide, 1 to 1.5 meter deep and 10 to 20 meter long depending
upon availability of water to be recharged and available land.
· These recharge trenches shall be back filled with boulders (5-20 cm.) gravels (5-10mm) and
coarse sand (1.5-2mm) in graded from- Boulders at the bottom, gravels in between and
coarse sand at the top.
· A mesh should be provided at the roof so that leaves or any other solid waste/ debris is
prevented from entering the filter chamber/trench.

C Trench with recharge well


· In areas where the surface soil is impervious and large quantities of roof water is available
within a very short period of heavy rainfall, the use of trench/pit is made to store the water in
a filter media and subsequently recharge to groundwater through specially constructed
recharge wells.
· This technique is ideally suited for area where permeable horizon is within 3m below ground
level.
· Recharge well of 100-300 diameter is constructed to a depth of at least 3m to 5m below the
water level. Based on the lithology of the area, well assembly should be designed with
slotted pipe against the shallow and deeper aquifer.
· A lateral trench of 1.5m to 3 m width and 10m to 30m length, depending upon the
availability of water is constructed with the recharge well in centre.
· The number of recharge wells in the trench can be decided on the basis of water availability
and local vertical permeability of the soil.
· The trench is backfilled with boulders, gravels and coarse sand to act as a filter media for the
recharge wells.
· If the aquifer is available at greater depth say more than 20m, a shallow shaft of 2 to 5m
diameter and 3-5 meters deep may be constructed depending upon availability of runoff.
Inside the shaft a recharge well of 100mm-300mm dia is constructed for recharging the
available water to the deeper aquifers. At the bottom of the shaft a filter media is provided to
avoid choking of recharge well.

Bye pass arrangement with provision of suitable valve shall be installed in the rain water drain
pipe just before every filter chamber to reject the first shower.
