Faecal sh
{ge management is the storage, collection, transport, treatment and safe end
use or disposal of Faccal sludge. Together, the collection, transport, treatment and end use of
Faecal sludge constitute the "value chain” or “service chain” of Faecal sludge management.
Faecal sludge is defined very broadly as what accumulates in onsite sanitation systems
(e.g. pit latrines, septic tanks and container-based solutions) and specifically is not transported
through a sewer. It is composed of human excreta, but also anything else that may go into an
onsite containment technology, such as flush water, cleansing materials (e.g, toilet paper and
‘anal cleansing materials), menstrual hygiene products, grey water (i.e. bathing or kitchen water,
including fats, oils and grease), and solid waste. Faecal sludge that is removed from septic tanks
is called septage.
It is estimated that one-third of the world’s population is served by onsite sanitation,
and that in low-income countries less than 10% of urban areas are served by sewers. In low-
income countries, most of the Faecal sludge is discharged untreated into the urban
environment, placing a huge burden on public and environmental health. Hence, FSM plays a
critical role in safely managed sanitation and the protection of public health. FSM services are
provided by a range of formal and informal private sector services providers, local governments,
water authorities, and public utilities. This can also result in unreliable services with relatively
high costs at the household level.
Faecal sludge collection can be arranged on a scheduled basis or on a call-for-service
basis (also known as on-demand, on-request, or non-scheduled services). The collected Faecal
sludge may manually or mechanically emptied, and then transported to treatment plants with 3
vacuum truck; a tank and pump mounted on a flatbed truck; a small tank pulled by 2
motorcycle; or in containers on 2 handcart. The wider use of multiple decentralized sludge
treatment facilities within cities (to avoid long haulage distances) is currently being researched
and piloted.
Faecal sludge is different to wastewater and cannot simply be co-treated at sewage
treatment plants. Small additions of Faecal sludge are possible if plants are underutilized and
able to take the additional load, and facilities to separate liquids and solids are available. A
variety of mechanized and non-mechanized processing technologies may be used, including
settling tanks, planted and unplanted drying beds, and waste stabilization ponds, The treatment
process can produce resource recovery end-products such as treated effluent that can be used
for irrigation, co-composting as a soil conditioner, anaerobic digestion to produce biogas, forms
of dry-combustion fuel such as pellets or bio char, charcoal, biodiesel, sludge and plants or
protein production as animal fodder.

Septage oF "septic tank sludge" is faecal sludge that is accumulated and stored in
septic tank, Septage tends to be more dilute, as septic tanks are typically used with fush toilets
(backwater) and can also include grey water. Septic tanks also tend to have less solid waste, a5
they only receive things that can be flushed down a toilet (e«, toilet paper). When operating 2s
designed, a sludge blanket layer accumulates on the bottom of the tank, a scum layer that
contains fats, oil and grease accumulates at the top, and the effluent or supernatant contains
less solids.
Septage is periodically removed (with a frequency depending on tank capacity, system
efficiency, and usage level, but typically less often than annually) from the septic tanks by
specialized vehicles known as vacuum trucks. They pump the septage out of the tank and
transport it to a local Faecal sludge treatment plant. It can also be used by farmers for fertilizer
or stored in large septage waste storage facilities for later treatment or use on crops.
The term “septage” has been used in the United States since at least 1992.{t has also
been used in projects by the United States Agency for International Development in Asia.
Another definition of septage is: "A historical term to define sludge removed from septic tanks.”
In india some government policy documents are using the term FSSM for "Faecal sludge
and septage management".
Providing uniform access to affordable sanitation services is a challenge for most of the
administrations today. Though several large-scale schemes and programs have been undertaken
to cover all the segments of the society with access to proper sanitation facilities, there still
remain many challenges towards achieving the same. The Swachh Bharat Mission Grameen
/S8M (6) in the first phase (year 2014-19) focused on achieving an open defecation free (ODF)
status in all rural areas through provision of Individual or Community toilets. With the second
phase of the SBM-G kicking in from February 2020, the focus is now on sustaining this ODF
status through continued usage of these toilets and solid and liquid waste management
(stm).
The biggest challenge from the previous scheme observed is that majority of the
household toilets have been connected to single pits instead of twin pits or septic tanks as
required which leads to the problem of managing the faecal waste once the pit fills up. This
necessitates either retrofitting of the existing single pits or implementation of faecal sludge
management (FSM) wherever not possible to convert all household containments into twin pits.
Hence, the newly released Phase {I Operational Guidelines launched by the Ministry of Jal Shakti
(MoJS), Department of Drinking Water & Sanitation, Government of India prescribes FSM in
cases where retrofitting is not possible. The FSM options given in order of priority are: co-
treatment, trenching or setting up of a faecal sludge treatment plant (FSTP).
The Rural Drinking Water & Sanitation Department (RDWS&SD), Government of
Karnataka has taken proactive measures at the State level with the launch of the State Rural

Sanitation Policy, Strategy and Model Byclaws which are in line with the recently launched
guidelines of the Mo!s.
Out of the proposed LWM projects, the initiatives related to black water/ faecal sludge
‘management are being taken up on priority for implementation under the SBM-G phase II
funding. The other projects proposed would be taken up by the respective Gram Panchayats as
per their annual action plans and depending on availability of funds for relevant sources.
This detailed project report {DPR) is prepared for the implementation of the black
water/ faecal sludge management projects proposed as a part of the LWM Strategy and Action
plan for Gurgunta GP.
