Conventional domestic wastewater treatment in most developing countries is confined to secondary treatments, mainly focusing on solids and organics removal, which results in eutrophication when the effluents are discharged into receiving bodies. Thus, to resolve the issues associated with the conventional treatment system, in the present study, microalgae was introduced in the primary treated effluent collected from a sewage treatment plant to study the efficiency of the system in reducing eutrophication and other challenges of secondary treatment. Phycoremediation is an effective and eco-friendly treatment alternative that reduced the primary-treated effluent’s PO4-P, NH3-N and COD concentration to 97.89%, 98.81%, and 88.24%, respectively at the identical HRT practiced for secondary treatment. One-way ANOVA was also conducted to determine the effectiveness of the system statistically. The experimental and statistical analysis proved that microalgal treatment could resolve the challenges of conventional secondary treatments if adopted for domestic wastewater.

Abstract One of the basic threats in terms of concrete used for tanks or ducts applied in wastewater management is the phenomenon of biogenic sulphate corrosion (BSC). BSC is a particular case of corrosion caused by the action of sulphuric acid (IV), which is formed as a result of a number of biochemical processes, which can take place, e.g. in an environment encountered within the aforementioned structures. Ions present in sulphuric acid react with cement hydration products, which leads to replacing the primary cement matrix components with compounds easily-soluble or highly-swelling during crystallization. The outcome of advanced corrosion is usually an observed formation of a white, amorphous, sponge-like mass, which is easily separated from the underlying concrete. The article discusses a case study of a BSC process in a newly constructed primary settling tank in a municipal wastewater treatment plant.

Abstract The fluctuation of domestic wastewater characteristic inhibits the current conventional microbial-based treatment. The bioremediation fungi has received attention and reported to be an effective alternative to treat industrial wastewater. Similar efficient performance is envisaged for domestic wastewater whereby assessed performance of fungi for varying carbon-to-nitrogen ratios in domestic wastewater is crucial. Thus, the performance of pre-grown wild-Serbian Ganoderma lucidum mycelial pellets (GLMPs) was evaluated on four different synthetic domestic wastewaters under different conditions of initial pH (pH 4, 5, and 7) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) to nitrogen (COD/N) ratio of 3.6:1, 7.1:1, 14.2:1, and 17.8:1 (C3.6N1, C7.1N1, C14.2N1, and C17.8N1). The COD/N ratios with a constant concentration of ammonia–nitrogen (NH3–N) were chosen on the basis of the urban domestic wastewater characteristics sampled at the inlet basin of a sewage treatment plant (STP). The parameters of pH, COD, and NH3–N were measured periodically during the experiment. The wild-Serbian GLMPs efficiently removed the pollutants from the synthetic sewage. The COD/N ratio of C17.8N1 wastewater had the best COD and NH3–N removal, as compared to the lower COD/N ratio, and the shortest treatment time was obtained in an acidic environment at pH 4. The highest percentage for COD and NH3–N removal achieved was 96.0% and 93.2%, respectively. The results proved that the mycelium of GLMP has high potential in treating domestic wastewater, particularly at high organic content as a naturally sustainable bioremediation system.

Abstract In Egypt, pharmaceuticals consumption is dramatically increasing, owing to the population growth and the unrestricted sale manner. Therefore, the occurrence and fate of nine pharmaceutical compounds (PhCs) were scrutinized at the different stages of sewage treatment plant (STP) in Giza, Egypt. Levels of these PhCs were assessed in wastewater and sludge phases by a high-performance liquid chromatography coupled. Nine PhCs were detected in both wastewater and sludge. Average concentration of the total PhCs detected in influent, primary sedimentation effluent and final effluent were 227, 155 and 89 µg/L, respectively. The overall removal efficiency of the individual PhCs ranged from 18 % to 72 % removal. The occurrence trend revealed that biodegradation and sorption are the concurrently removal mechanisms of the studied PhCs. As well, the calculated total mass load of individual PhCs were in the range 328 – 42256, 152 – 26180, and 257 – 6625 g d-1 for influent, effluent and sludge. Meanwhile, the calculated range of personal mass load of the individual PhCs was 193 – 15274, 120 – 10864 and 34 - 265 µg d-1 Pe-1, for the influent, the final effluent and the sludge, respectively. The overall personal pharmaceutical consumption per day in West of Greater Cairo was estimated based on influent concentration of STP. Sulfamethoxazole, paracetamol and diclofenac were identified with the highest levels in the influent of STP, PSE and FE as well as in the dewatered sludge. Furthermore, the high concentrations of these compounds in the sludge confirms the sorption pathway removal of PhCs. Generally, the average daily and annual consumption per capita of the most dominant PhCs in wastewater; sulfamethazole, paracetamol and diclofenac are 60.09, 34.79, and 26.69 mg d-1 Pe-1 and 22, 12.52, and 12.52 g y-1 Pe-1, respectively. Moreover, risk assessment (RQ) for the detected PhCs in FE is greatly higher than the predicted non-effect concentration (PNEC). Conclusively, the FE of STP is considered a risky source for PhCs in adjacent surface water.

Methodological aspects of odor studies in ex-post analyses for Polish wastewater management facilities were analyzed based on the example of a modernized and enlarged wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Mazovia, in the vicinity of the Warsaw agglomeration. It is a mechanical–biological treatment plant with increased efficiency of biogen removal, using activated sludge in the treatment process, with a maximum hydraulic capacity of 60,000 m3/day. Olfactometric research was carried out by means of a method based on identification and characterization of the odor plume emitted from the examined source. This paper presents the results of odor intensity assessment (in sensory examinations according to a 6-stage scale) and odor concentration measurement (using portable field olfactometers) after the completion of the project, and compares them with similar studies conducted before the commencement of the investment. A total of 10 measurement series were carried out before modernization, and 12 after modernization of the WWTP. Odor concentration and intensity were determined, and the current meteorological situation was assessed at the measurement and observation points (receptors) located within the premises (in total 462 points) and around the WWTP (342 points). In each series of measurements on the windward side of the treatment plant, the background of air pollution with odorous substances was marked. The research showed that air flowing into the area of the sewage treatment plant is clean in terms of odor. During the research, basic sources of odor nuisance were identified, and their impact before and after modernization was characterized. The results presented in radar diagrams show changes in the percentage distribution of frequency of occurrence of individual intensity values at receptor points within and outside the area of the treatment plant. After modernization, a significant decrease in the concentration of odor emitted from the sludge dewatering building and sludge containers was determined. The air-tightness of the sewage channel (covered with concrete slabs and sealed) resulted in a significant decrease in the concentration of odor emitted from this source. Waste (in particular, sewage sludge) collected in the emergency waste storage yard was identified as the main source of odor nuisance. The waste, even after modernization, was an emitter of odorous compounds spreading outside the area of the WWTP. Nevertheless, as a result of the investment, the desired effect of reduction of the degree of odor nuisance was achieved.


The technical aspect of this paper is water conservation. Water table is getting depleted in the area because of rapid withdrawal of water. University needs nearly twenty lakhs liters of water every day. Farmers in the adjoining areas also pump out lot of water required for irrigating paddy. Paddy needs 150 cm of water for growth stage .Part of it is met by monsoon and largely by pumping out of water. There had been a decline of 50-100 cm per year sin the water table in the last two decades. All this has led to the need for water conservation. It involves harvesting, recycling of water and improving infiltration. The campus works on the principle of zero discharge. It means we are not discharging water into any municipal drain or rivulet. Waste water is recycled through 1.5mlpd sewage treatment plant and used for horticulture. Roof top rainwater and storm water is harvested through ten rain water harvester located after proper hydrologic analysis. Interlocking tiles are preferred over impermeable pavement to improve infiltration

The implementation of wastewater treatment plants has been a challenge for most countries. Economic resources, political will, institutional strength, and cultural background are important factors that define the trajectory of pollution control in many countries. Technology is sometimes mentioned as one of the reasons hindering further development. Therefore, a key objective of this research is to evaluate the performance of a plant based on the 345 MLD Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) technology by analyzing the physical and chemical parameters of the water treated by UASB to evaluate the performance of the plant located. at Bharwara Tech from Gomti Nagar Lucknow. In this study, the performance of the wastewater treatment plant and the UASB reactor was calculated. Wastewater is mixed with domestic wastewater, so the concentration of BOD and COD is relatively low. The amount of biogas produced by the UASB reactor is also less than its design value. All STP inlet and outlet water concentration results are displayed graphically.
