FOREWORD
Pollution caused by sewage discharged from cities and towns is the primary cause for degradation of our water resources. A solution to this problem not only requires bridging the ever widening gap between sewage generation and treatment capacity (generation being 29000 million litre per day against the existing treatment capacity of 6000 million litre per day) but also calls for development of facilities to divert the treated sewage for use in irrigation to prevent nutrient pollution of water bodies, utilize the nutrient value of sewage in irrigation and bring down fresh water use in irrigation. The use of treated sewage in irrigation was emphasised in the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1974; however, by and large, the State Governments have failed to recognize its importance during the last 30 years. It is a matter of grave concern that due attention is not paid to operation and maintenance of existing sewage treatment facilities by State Governments and , as a result, 45 of the 115 sewage treatment plants studied recently by Central Pollution Control Board failed to achieve the prescribed discharge standards.

This reports analyzes and presents in detail the gap between sewage generation and treatment capacity, the technologies used for sewage treatment in India, performance of 115 sewage plants studied by Central Pollution Control Board with plant-specific technical remarks and also discusses the efficacies of various treatment technologies. We hope the information contained in the report would be useful to all concerned.

INTRODUCTION
The annual estimated precipitation, including snowfall, in India is 4000 billion cubic metres (bcm). The resources potential of the country in the form of annual natural run off in the rivers is about 1869 bcm, considering both surface and ground water as one system. However, owing mainly to uneven distribution of precipitation in time and space, the total water resources available for utilization, including ground water, is only about 1122 bcm.

1.2

The food requirement of the growing population will be about 450 million tons in 2050 as against the present highest food grain production of around 198 million tons. Two-third of this is obtained from irrigated food grain production areas. Thus, irrigation water requirements of the country are likely to exert tremendous pressure on our water resources in the future.

1.3

Power generation is another sector which exerts ever increasing pressure on our water resources as our major power plants are coal-based that consume significant quantity of water in their cooling systems. Our dependency on coal-based power plant will have to continue for long time. This entails an ever-increasing demand of water for power generation.

1.4

With the increasing population as well as all round development in the country, the competing demand for water for irrigation, domestic use and power generation sectors are exerting enormous pressure on our water resources as utilization of water has also been consequently increasing at a fast pace. In 1951, the actual utilization of surface and ground water was about 20% and 10%, respectively, of the utilizable potential. In 1997 - 1998, the utilization of surface and ground water increased to about 57.8% (329 bcm) and about 53.2% (230 bcm), respectively, of the utilizable potential. The precarious balance between growing demands and supplies brings forth the importance of recycling and reuse of water so that same water can be used for multiple uses one after the other thereby reducing demand for fresh supplies.

1.5

Disposal of about 29000 MLD domestic sewage from cities and towns is the biggest source of pollution of water bodies in India. A large number of rivers stretches are severely polluted as a result of discharge of domestic sewage. Treatment of domestic sewage and subsequent utilization of treated sewage for irrigation can prevent pollution of water bodies, reduce the demand for fresh water in irrigation sector and result in huge savings in terms of nutritional value of sewage in irrigation.

1.6

In spite of the urgencies of saving large number of river stretches from pollution and recycling treated sewage for reducing ever-increasing pressure on our water resources, sewage

treatment and reuse remains a widely neglected field in our country. It is primary responsibility of state governments to establish sewage treatment and disposal facilities. Owing to the gross neglect of state governments in this area, Government of India took initiative and financed many sewage treatment plants in cities along bank of rivers under various river action plans. Whatever sewage treatment capacity exists in our country today were mostly created under schemes financed by Government of India. There still remains a large gap in sewage generation and sewage treatment capacity. This gap is widening because urban population is increasing at a fast rate and state governments continue their neglect towards this issue.

1.7

The existing sewage treatment plants, most of which have been established under schemes financed by Government of India are to be operated by respective state governments. It is observed that the neglect towards sewage pollution control is also reflected in the operation of these sewage treatment facilities as a large number of plants are found operating at sub optimal efficiency during their random inspections by Central Pollution Control Board.

1.8

This report compiles information on sewage generation and existing sewage treatment capacity in all Class I cities (having more than hundred thousand population) and Class II towns (having fifty to hundred thousand population), presents basic information on 269 existing and proposed sewage treatment plants and presents individual performance evaluation reports of about 115 sewage treatment plants studied by Central Pollution Control Board.

SEWAGE GENERATION AND EXISTING TREATMENT CAPACITY


In India, out of the total population of 1027 million in the year 2001, about 285 million live in urban areas. The percentage of urban population to the total population of the country, which in the year 1991 was 25.7 percent, stands at 27.8 percent in the year 2001. The percentage decadal growth of population in rural and urban areas during the decade 1991-2001 was 17.9 and 31.1 percent, respectively. Table A summarises the growth of urban population in the last 100 years. Table A Rise in urban population since 1901

2.2

Problem of pollution of water bodies and that of ground water is more related to cities and towns and their surroundings as pollution caused by villages and very small towns is either assimilated by or has negligible effect on the surrounding environment. However, there is possibility of bacteriological impacts on smaller communities that come in direct contact of sewage. In India, cities having more than hundred thousand population are classified as Class I cities and towns having fifty to hundred thousand population as Class II towns. This report assesses pollution caused by sewage generated from these two classes of cities/towns. According to the Census figure of 2001, the number of class I cities is 414 and class II towns is around 489.

2.3

There are 211 sewage treatment plants (STPs) in 112 of the 414 Class I cities and 31 STPs in 22 of the 489 Class II towns. Besides, 27 STPs are in 26 other smaller towns. Of these, 186, 24 and 21 STPs are operational and 25, 7 and 6 are under construction in Class I cities, Class II towns and other smaller towns, respectively. Thus, in all there are 269 STPs, including 231 operational and 38 under construction. A state wise summary of sewage treatment plants (STPs) in various classes of cities is given in Annexure I -Table 1.

2.4

All Class I cities and Class II towns together generate an estimated 29129 MLD sewage. Against this, installed sewage treatment capacity is only 6190 MLD. There remains a gap of 22939 MLD between sewage generation and installed capacity. In percentage this gap is 78.7% of the sewage generation. Another 1743 MLD (equal to 6%) capacity is under planning or construction stage. If this is also added to existing capacity, we are left with a 21196 MLD (equal to 72.7% of the sewage generation) gap in sewage treatment capacity that has not even planned yet. Summary status of sewage generation and treatment capacity is given in Table B and detailes are given in Annexure I-Table 2 to 5.

2.5

Estimation of sewage generation is primarily based on 2001 census population, the average water supply figures for respective states as given in CPCBs status reports on Class I cities (CUPS/44/1999-2000) and Class II towns CUPS/49/1999-2000) and assuming sewage to be 80% of the water supply. In few cases estimation is based on 2001 census population and the sewage generation factors wherever given in these two reports. Capacity of the STPs have been taken form MIS Report of Programmes under NRCP-Volume-II, November, 2004 of Ministry of Environment & Forests, Govt. of India, as most of the STPs have been installed under various National River Action Plans of Govt. of India.

2.6

An estimated 14652 MLD sewage is generated from 112 Class I cities having STPs. The combined treatment capacity of the STPs in these Class I cities is 6047 MLD. Therefore, a capcity gap of 8605 MLD exists in 112 Class I cities having STPs.

2.7

An estimated 143 MLD sewage is generated from 22 Class II towns having STPs whereas the combined treatment capacity of the STPs in these 22 Class II towns is 234 MLD.

2.8

There remain 302 Class I cities and 467 Class II towns having no sewage treatment facilities. An estimated 11512 MLD sewage is generated from 302 Class I cities not having STPs and 2822 MLD sewage is generated from 467 Class II towns not having STPs.

2.9

State wise gap between sewage generation and treatment capacity for Class I cities and Class II towns are shown in Table C and Table D, respectively.

2.10

In case of Class I cities, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal have a sewage treatment capacity gap of more than 1000 MLD each, and may be considered the most lagging states. Among these, abnormally high gap of 5223 MLD in Maharashtra is mainly attributed to inclusion of Mumbai where sewage is mostly discharged into sea untreated or after primary treatment. These states are followed by Bihar, Delhi, Gujrat, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab and Tamil Nadu that have sewage treatment capacity gaps in 5001000 MLD range.

2.11 In case of Class II towns, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Gujrat, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal have a sewage treatment capacity gap of more than 100 MLD each, and may be considered the most lagging states. Incidentally, except for Jharkhand, these are the same states that have sewage treatment capacity gap of more than 500 MLD each in case of Class I cities.

TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES IN VARIOUS SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS


Technologies employed in various sewage treatment plants are mentioned in the lists of STPs in Table 2 and Table 3 of Annexure I. Based on the information available, an analysis of various treatment technologies employed in different sewage treatment plants is presented in Table E and Table F for Class I cities and Class II towns, respectively.

3.2

In Class I cities, Activated sludge process (ASP) is the most commonly employed technology, covering 59.5% of total installed capacity followed by Up flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) technology, covering 26% of total installed capacity. These two technologies are mostly used as the main treatment unit of a scheme including other primary or tertiary treatment units. A break up of various treatment schemes involving ASP or UASB as one of the units is also given in the tables. Series of Waste Stabilization Ponds (WSP) technology is also important as it is employed in 28% of the plants even though its combined capacity is only 5.6%.

3.3

In Class II towns, series of Waste Stabilization Ponds (WSP) technology is the most commonly employed technologies, covering 71.9% of total installed capacity and 72.4% of STPs, followed by Up flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) technology, covering 10.6% of total installed capacity and 10.3% of STPs. UASB technology is mostly used as the main treatment unit of a scheme including other primary and tertiary polishing units.

3.4

Activated sludge process (ASP) technology is the most suitable one for large cities because it requires less space as compared to other two technologies, namely, UASB technology and WSP technology, as both these technologies employ land intensive ponds in treatment schemes. In treatment schemes based on conventional version of ASP technology, both primary and secondary sludges are commonly treated in anaerobic sludge reactors. Thus, only excess sludge of anaerobic reactor to be wasted to sludge beds. This reduces the required area of sludge beds and also substantially reduces aeration cost of that organic portion of primary and secondary sludge that is treated anaerobically as compared to the Extended-Aeration version of ASP technology where primary settling tank and anaerobic sludge digester are generally omitted from treated scheme and whole secondary excess sludge is directly taken on to sludge beds. Biogas generated in anaerobic reactors is a resource and, if utilized, further reduces overall operational cost. However, compared to conventional ASP process, Extended-Aeration ASP process is expected to provide a better quality effluent because the process is operated in a substrate-limited condition and also because of better settling properties of mixed liquor. The secondary excess sludge is also well stabilized and has better drainability. Since, treatment scheme based on conventional

ASP process and anaerobic digester for primary and secondary sludge have proven successful in providing good quality effluent and possible energy recovery, there seems no wisdom in opting for operationally costly Extended Aeration version for such large installations. 3.5 Most of the treatment schemes using UASB technology include grit chamber as preliminary treatment unit and one-day retention time pond as the terminal polishing unit. Operationaly, this treatment scheme is one of the most economical ones, as it merely requires passing the sewage through treatment scheme, with an added advantage of biogas generation. Ideally, this makes UASB technology as the most suited for cities of all sizes. However, all anaerobic treatment processes including UASB technology are very sensitive to environmental changes. Intermittent feeding can greatly affect the performance of a UASB reactor, as the anaerobic bacteria are very sensitive to shock loading. This happens frequently at most of the places due to power cuts. Performance of polishing ponds, which is the terminal unit of the scheme, is also very crucial in deciding overall performance of the plant. Many polishing ponds have been found releasing TSS higher than an expected value of <30 mg/L due to reasons discussed in next chapter. The combined effect of above factors often results in a final effluent having BOD >20 or 30 mg/L. Inadequate operation of the plants based UASB+Polishing Pond technology is gradually leading to development of a bad impression about the technology itself, which otherwise is the most suitable option for sewage treatment in our country.

3.6

Inclusion of polishing pond in most of the scheme employing UASB technology has made this a less suitable scheme for large cities due to land scarcity. Alternative treatment schemes having UASB as one treatment unit have been adopted at two places. An 86 MLD STP has been set up at Ataldhara, Vadodara, Gujrat where UASB is the primary treatment unit of the scheme followed by an ASP unit. Another 126 MLD STP has been set up at Vasna, Ahmedabad, Gujrat where UASB is main treatment unit followed by coagulant-aided tertiary sedimentation. This plant has been found reducing BOD, COD and TSS from 155, 753 and 218 mg/L to 49, 149 and 38 mg/L, respectively. This STP needs to be studied in detail to assess the optimal efficiency of the treatment scheme in reducing BOD, COD, TSS and Fecal & Total Coliform and its suitability for large cities.

3.7

It is observed that higher percentage of inert suspended solids that enter UASB has a direct impact on steady state VSS to TSS ratio in the reactor and ash content to the tune of 60% are common in UASB reactor. This leaves us with only about 40% active biomass that actually plays role in treatment of incoming organic matter. Such a low VSS/TSS ratio may not have been considered while deciding the normally encoundered 8 hr hydraulic retention

time for UASB reactors. Therefore, proper operation of grit removal facility is very important to improve performance of UASB reactors. It may also be studied if higher hydraulic retention time of UASB reactors can compensate for this situation. Higher hydraulic retention time will also provide large settling area in UASB reactor that will result in more clarified effluent. A treatment scheme including screening, grit removal, UASB reactor with higher hydraulic retention time and coagulant aided tertiary sedimentation, if proven successful, may provide an excelent solution for sewage treatment in cities, both operational cost wise and for improving bacterial quality also.

3.8

Series of Waste Stabilization Ponds (WSP) technology is also one of the most economical ones operationally, as it merely requires passing the sewage through treatment scheme. However, unlike UASB technology, no resource in the form of biogas is recovered. The advantages of WSP technology over UASB technology are its less sensitive operation and greater improvement in bacteriological quality. Mostly employed configuration of WSP technology uses two parallel streams of at least three stages of ponds, the first stage being anaerobic ponds, the second stage being facultative pond and the third stage being maturation pond. Total hydraulic retention time of all ponds is normally kept 5 to 7 days. At few places two-stage or even single-stage oxidation ponds have also been used. At few other places series of ponds have been used with final ponds used as fishponds, which helps improve the quality of treated sewage in terms of nutrients also.

PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS


Central Pollution Control Board has conducted performance evaluation of 115 sewage treatment plants. Based on these studies, operational performance of individual STPs along with technical remarks are presented in Annexure II.

4.2

Based on the performance evaluation studies carried out by Central Pollution Control Board, a state wise summary of performance status of STPs is given in Table G. Table G State wise summary of performance status of STPs

4.3

Based on the analysis of 106 raw sewage samples, average sewage characterstics in terms of main parameters BOD, COD and TSS have been found 185.5 mg/L, 481 mg/L and 328 mg/L, respectively. Average COD to average BOD ratio is 2.6. A more detailed analysis of these results is presented in Table H. Table H Raw sewage characteristics in 115 STPs studied by CPCB
BOD, mg/L Range 0-50 50-100 100-150 150-200 200-250 250-300 300-500 500-1000 No. of samples in the range 7 28 20 22 15 4 5 6 Range 0-100 100-200 200-300 300-400 400-500 500-600 600-700 700-800 800-1200 >2000 COD, mg/L No. of samples in the range 3 14 12 19 16 15 12 9 5 1 Range 0-100 100-200 200-300 300-400 400-500 500-600 600-700 700-1000 900-1200 2000-2300 TSS, mg/L No. of samples in the range 11 33 23 12 12 6 3 4 1 2

Average: 185.5 and SD: 175

Average: 481 and SD: 343

Average: 328 and SD: 329

4.4

It is seen that BOD of raw sewage lies between 50-250 mg/L in nearly eighty six percent observations, COD of raw sewage lies between 100-700 mg/L in nearly eighty three percent observations and TSS of raw sewage lies between 100-500 mg/L in nearly eighty five percent observations.

4.5

Of the 115 STPs studied, capacity utilization has been reported in 80 cases. It is observed that average capacity utilization is only 72.2 %.

4.6

In 47 STPs employing Activated Sludge Process and having secondary clarifier as the terminal treatment unit, TSS has been found less than 30 mg/L in 26 cases, 30-50 mg/L in 6 cases and >50 mg/L in 15 cases. Thus, it is possible to achieve TSS value less than 30 mg/L in final clarified effluent of biological processes.

4.7

In 47 STPs employing Activated Sludge Process with no tertiary treatment, BOD has been found less than 20 mg/L in 28 cases, 20-30 mg/L in 7 cases, 30-50 mg/L in 7 cases and 50100 mg/L in 5 cases. In most of the cases where BOD exceeded 20 mg/L, TSS also exceeded 30 mg/L. From this and the observation given in section 4.6, it can be inferred that Primary Settling + Activated Sludge (PST+ASP) technology can provide treated effluent having BOD<20 mg/L and TSS< 30 mg/L

4.8

In 41 STPs employing Up flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) technology or Waste Stabilization Pond (WSP) technology and having ponds as the terminal treatment units, TSS has been found less than 30 mg/L in 9 cases, 30-50 mg/L in 11 cases, 50-100 mg/L in 13 cases and >100 mg/L in 8 cases. This indicates that in spite of a larger settling area available in ponds as compared to secondary clarifiers, fewer percentage of ponds are able to provide effluent having TSS less than 30 mg/L. Most obvious reasons behind this discrepancy appear to be excessive algal growth due to stagnation and high weir loading. Efficiency of ponds in terms of effluent TSS can be improved by preventing excessive algal growth, which generally occur when effluent remain stagnant in ponds, and providing adequate effluent structures with sufficient weir length and baffle preceding the effluent weir to arrest floating matter. With these precautions/ improvements, ponds are also expected to provide effluent having TSS <30 mg/L.

4.9

In 18 STPs employing UASB+Polishing Pond technology, BOD has been found less than 20 mg/L in 3 cases, 20-30 mg/L in 3 cases, 30-50 mg/L in 7 cases, 50-100 mg/L in 3 cases and >100 mg/L in 2 cases. In most of the cases where BOD exceeded 20 mg/L, TSS also exceeded 30 mg/L.

4.10 In 23 STPs employing series of Waste Stabilization Pond technology, BOD has been found less than 20 mg/L in 12cases, 20-30 mg/L in 2 cases, 30-50 mg/L in 6 cases, 50-100 mg/L in 2 cases and >100 mg/L in 1 case. In most of the cases where BOD exceeded 20-mg/L limit, TSS also exceeded 30-mg/L limit.

4.11 Importance of preventing excessive algal growth in ponds and improvement in outlet structures of ponds has been emphasised in section 4.8, 4.9 and 4.10 above. Cleaning of accumulated sludge from ponds after recommended 6 month / 1 year period is the other most important factor in operation of STPs based on Up flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) technology having ponds as the terminal treatment units or series of Waste Stabilization Pond (WSP) technology. Other important factors for improving overall efficiency of the UASB reactors are:

i) ii) iii)

Uniform and continuous feeding of raw sewage Maintaining recommended VSS concentration in UASB reactor Proper removal of grit and wasting excess sludge from suitable pockets/levels of reactor to maintain good VSS/TSS ratio

4.12 Most of the of STPs in India employ any one of the three technologies, namely, Primary settling followed by Activated Sludge Process (PST+ASP), Up flow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket + Polishing Pond (UASB+PP) and series of Waste Stabilization Pond (WSP). The first technology has been found capable of providing final effluent having BOD<20 mg/L and TSS< 30 mg/L. The other two technologies are also expected to provide final effluent of this quality provided the STPs based on these technologies are operated properly. This standard is already made applicable to STPs in Delhi. An effluent conforming to this quality in terms of BOD and TSS will also easily conform to COD value<100 mg/L, as the average COD/BOD ratio of 115 treated sewage samples is found 3.3 . Gujrat State Pollution Control Board has already stipulated 20 mg/L, 100 mg/L and 30 mg/L limits for BOD, COD and TSS, respectively for treated sewage quality.

EFFICACY OF STPs IN IMPROVING BACTERIOLOGICAL QUALITY


Central Pollution Control Board analyzed in 2004 performance data of a large number of STPs employing different technologies for assessing their efficacy in improving bacterial quality so as to determine norms for permissible coliform level in treated sewage in Delhi and the process required for achieving the same keeping in view techno-economic feasibility. A large data comprising of 319 observations on 85 STPs was collected for the purpose but only those 44 observations were considered for evaluation of performance of STPs in terms of coliform reduction where STPs were found operating between 90% to 110% capacity utilization.

5.2

Analyzed data indicated that Fecal Coliforms levels in sewage treated with Oxidation Pond technology were 7 x 104, 3.1 x 105, 5 x 105 and 2.3 x 106. Geometric mean of these 4 values is 3.97 x 105 . FC levels in sewage treated with UASB + Polishing Pond technology were 4.9 x 104, 2 x 105, 2.8 x 105, 3.5 x 105, 4.2 x 105, 6 x 105, 7 x 105, 2.1 x 106, 3.6 x 106, 4 x 106, 1.9 x 107, 1.98 x 107 and 6.3 x 107. Geometric mean of these 13 values is 1.45 x 106 FC levels in sewage treated with ASP technology were 1.1 x 105, 7.1 x 105, 1 x 106, 1 x 106, 1 x 106, 1.3 x 106, 2.9 x 106, 3 x 106, 7.2 x 106, 1.1 x 107, 2.2 x 107 and 2.5 x 107 . Geometric mean of these 12 values is 2.41 x 106 .

And FC levels in sewage treated with two stage bio-filtration technology followed by UV disinfection were 180, 1080, 2.17 x 104, 2.06 x 105, 7 x 105, 1.1 x 106, 5.9 x 106 2.1 x 107 and 2.9 x 107. Geometric mean of these 9 values is 2.375 x 105 .Frequent disfunctioning of UV unit in the STPs employing this technology was the reason behind the observed high levels of Fecal Coliforms.

5.3

It was found that Waste Stabilization Pond (WSP) and UASB+Polishing Ponds technologies provided fecal coliform reduction to a level of >99%. From field studies it is observed that there is further scope of increasing of coliform removal efficiency in the Waste Stabilization Pond (WSP) and UASB+Polishing Ponds technologies by way of improved outlet structures and modifications in flow regimes of Polishing Ponds. Efficiency of ponds in terms of effluent TSS and, as a result, effluent coliform can be improved by providing adequate effluent structures with sufficient weir length and baffle preceding the effluent weir to arrest floating matter.

5.4

CPCB observed that less than 50% of the entire sewage of Delhi is being collected and treated. Therefore to achieve the maximum removal of pollution load with the funds available, it was recommended to make arrangements for treatment of the entire sewage up to secondary level to achieve BOD<20 mg/l and SS<30 mg/l on priority basis rather than treating part of sewage to tertiary level to achieve BOD,10 mg/L, TSS<15 mg/L and FC<2500 MPN/100 ml while leaving significant part of sewage untreated. Afterwards, when secondary treatment facility for at least 90 % of sewage is installed, all STPs need to be augmented with tertiary treatment facilities for removal of FC to a standard 2500 MPN/100 ml so that the main objective of maintaining quality of Yamuna River may be fulfilled. A similar approach needs to be adopted at other places also.

5.5

It was also recommended to utilize treated sewage, as much as possible, for irrigation of trees or crops not eaten raw, for which no FC limit is prescribed as treatment of entire sewage to the required FC level of 2500 MPN/100 ml will be very expensive.

5.6

CPCB has also proposed to carry out experimental studies on treated sewage in Delhi to investigate effectiveness of following suggested tertiary treatment technologies required for augmentation of STPs based on ASP and Trickling Filter (TF) technologies to achieve the suggested FC standards of 2500 MPN/100ml for discharge into Yamuna or for utilization sports fields and public park.

A: Chemicals aided flocculation and tertiary sedimentation B: Chemicals aided flocculation and tertiary sedimentation + Granular media (Sand) filtration C: Chemicals aided flocculation and tertiary sedimentation + Chlorination D: Chemicals aided flocculation and tertiary sedimentation + Granular media (Sand) filtration + Chlorination

RECOMMENDATIONS
6.1 The estimated sewage generation from Class I cities and Class II towns (as per 2001 census) is 29129 MLD, which is expected to be 33212 MLD at present assuming 30% decadal growth in urban population. Against this, there exist STPs having 6190 MLD capacity while another 1743 MLD capacity is being added. Thus, the existing treatment capacity is just 18.6 % of present sewage generation and another 5.2 % capacity is being added. However, the actual capacity utilization of STPs is only 72.2% and as such only 13.5 % of the sewage is treated. This clearly indicates dismal position of sewage treatment, which is the main cause of pollution of rivers and lakes. To improve the water quality of rivers and lakes, there is an urgent need to increase sewage treatment capacity and its optimum utilization.

6.2

State Governments should realize the problem of pollution of water bodies and pay attention to their liability to set up sewage treatment plants in cities and towns to prevent this pollution. This activity requires to be recognized as one of the most important indicators of overall development of the States. If not realized urgently, this problem is fast going to magnify to an unmanageable level.

6.3

Utilization of conventionally treated sewage for irrigation of crops not eaten raw is also equally important i) to save fresh water considering our diminishing water resources, ii) to prevent nutrient pollution of our water bodies and iii) to utilize nutrient value of sewage in irrigation. Importance of utilization of treated sewage in irrigation was emphasized in Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act 1974, i.e. more than thirty years back but this issue continues to be largely neglected by State Governments. Therefore, State Governments are required to take up sewage diversion and utilization schemes as an integral part of all sewage treatment schemes. Sewage diversion schemes should adopt at least 25-30 years plan period for design.

6.4

Considering the widening gap between sewage generation and treatment capacity, state governments are required to prepare a very thoughtful action plan to fill this gap in a minimum time frame. Large cities where pollution problem is more severe, cities/towns responsible for pollution of critically polluted stretches of rivers, and cities/towns polluting environmentally sensitive water bodies will be required to be taken up on priority basis in first phase. Continuous upgrading of capacity with rise in population in cities/town taken in first phase will also be required along with implementation of next phases.

6.5

Treatment schemes based on primary sedimentaion followed by activated-sludge-process with anaerobic sludge digester and sludge drying beds for anaerobic sludge is quit suitable

scheme for large cities where land availability is a problem. However, the plant at Vasna, Ahmedabad based on anaerobic-sludge-blanket reactor followed by coagulant aided tertiary sedimentation needs to be studied in detail for assessing its optimal efficiency, as this scheme also require less land and may be suitable for large cities. This scheme is most likely to be operationally economical as compared to the scheme based on activated-sludgeprocess in vogue. Moreover, better bacteriological quality may be achieved with the help of coagulants in tertiary sedimentation.

6.6

Operation and maintenance of existing plants and sewage pumping stations is also a very neglected field, as nearly 39% plants are not conforming to the general standards prescribed under the Environmental (Protection) Rules for discharge into streams. STPs are usually run by personals that do not have adequate knowledge of running the STPs and know only operation of pumps and motors. The operational parameters are not regularly analyzed hence the day-to-day variation in performance is not evaluated at most of the STPs. Thus, there is a need that persons having adequate knowledge and trained to operate the STPs be engaged to manage STPs and an expert be engaged to visit the STPs at least once a month and advice for improvement of its performance. In a number of cities, the existing treatment capcity remains underutilized while a lot of sewage is discharged without treatment in the same city. Auxiliary power back-up facility is required at all the intermediate (IPS) & main pumping stations (MPS) of all the STPs.

6.7

In treatment schemes employing activated-sludge-process, plant operators must recognize the importance of using Solids Retention Time (SRT) as a plant control parameter because treatment efficiency, sludge production, oxygen requirements and nutrients requirements are all dependent on SRT. Moreover, SRT being the ratio of total suspended solids in the system and that wasted per day, it is most simple to operate plants on the basis of SRT. Operation of a conventional activated-sludge-process near 5 day SRT is recommended, as it will provide sufficient safety factor. If a plant based on conventional activated-sludge-process receives low strength sewage than it was designed for, then operator has a choice to either operate the plant at higher than 5 day SRT, or he may opt for energy saving by operating fewer aeraters provided mixing requirements of the plant are still fulfilled. But all this maneouring requires a basic knowledge of intricacies of aerobic biological treatment, which an operator must be equipped with. It is also necessary to recognize the importance of return flow and waste sludge flow measurement, in addition to influent flow measurement, as without this it is difficult to have proper control on plant operation and it is not possible to use SRT as a plant control parameter.

6.8

Treatment schemes based on grit removal followed by up-flow-anaerobic-sludge-blanket reactor followed by polishing pond is a siuitable technology for all medium and small size cities/towns where required land can be made available. The operation of these plants is somewhat sensitive. Continuous uniform feeding to the plant, proper removal of grit, maintainence of design VSS concentration and VSS/TSS ratio in UASB reactor, cleaning accumulated sludge from polishing pond after a year time, avoiding stagnation of water in ponds to prevent excessive algal growth and providing proper wier length and baffle in the outlet structure of polishing pond, are the most important factors for successful operation of such plants therefore these factors must not be ignored. Biogas generated in reactors must be utilized; if arrangements for utilization of biogas are not available they must be installed immediately.

6.9

Treatment scheme based on series of Waste Stabilization Ponds (WSP) technology is quit rugged, one of the most economical ones and suitable for small towns where sufficient land is easily available. Multiple stage ponds (at least three) with first pond as anaerobic one is the most widely used and suitable configuration. Continuous uniform feeding to the plant, cleaning accumulated sludge from ponds after suitable intervals (prefrebly less than 6 month for primary anaerobic pond and once a year for subsequent ponds), avoiding stagnation of water in ponds to prevent excessive algal growth, providing proper wier length and baffle in the outlet structure of pond and not allowing hycinth growth are the most important factors for successful operation of such plants therefore these factors must not be ignored.

6.10 As mentioned in section 6.2 and 6.3 above, the first emphasis should be given to development of 100% treatment capacity upto secondary level of treatment and diversion of treated sewage for its utilization in irrigation of crops not eaten raw. Improvement in bacterial quality of remaining sewage to be used for irrigation of sports fields and public parks or that has to be discharge into water bodies due to unavoidable circumstances is the next area of concern. This will require augmentation of treatment plants with tertiary treatment units, such as coagulent-aided tertiary sedimentation and chlorination etc.

6.11 Six STPs in Shimla and one STP in Chandigarh have tertiary sedimentation unit after activated sludge process. These plants need to be studied in detail with different combinations of lime and alum dozing and also with additional chlorine dozing to assess efficacy of this scheme in providing coliform reduction to the desired FC level of 2500 MPN/100 mL for utilization of treated sewage in sports field and public parks or where sewage has to discharged in streams providing negligible/insufficient dilution.

6.12 Considering the urgency of preventing pollution of our water bodies and preserving our precious water resources, sewage treatment and reutilization of treated sewage need to be accorded higher priority.

Plant was receiving very low strength sewage and most of the treatment was achieved in primary stage itself. Plant faces problem of power failures and there is no standby arrangement. Plant faces problem of shortage of funds for operation and maintetance. Sludge scrapper of final clarifier is not functioning since January 2005. One more final clarifier is required as SOR is high for the present final clarifier. The gas generated in sludge digestor is not utilized. One aeration tank and one final clarifiers are proposed in GAP

Plant was receiving low strength sewage that is effectively treated in primary units before feeding to subsiquent activated sludge process. The activated sludge process recieves very low organic loading owing to low inlet BOD (40 mg/L) and low flow (50% of design flow). This condition may allow operation of few aerators instead of all just to fulfill the aeration and mixing requirements that will help reducing operation costs. Plant faces problem of power failures and there is no standby arrangement. Sludge scrapper of final clarifier is not functioning since January 2005. One more final clarifier is required. The gas generated in sludge digestor is not utilized. One aeration tank and one final clarifiers are proposed in GAP

Primary clarifiers of the first stream are not performing at optimum efficiency both in terms of percentage TSS removal (only 62%) and TSS in effluent (117 mg/L). Secondary treatment (ASP) unit of first stream providing 68% individual eficiency in terms of BOD reduction is not performing at the expected efficiency for a conventional ASP Secondary treatment (ASP) unit of second stream providing 81% individual efficiency in terms of BOD reduction is also not performing at the required efficiency for discharge of sewage in streams. If it is an extended aeration type ASP, as indicated by absence of primary treatment unit, then the observed efficiency is also less than expected from such systems. The two streams of secondary treated sewage of 5 MGD and 15 MGD are not conforming to the discharge standards individiully. These streams are combined and further mixed with 15 MGD untreated sewage and the total 35 MGD combined sewage is discharged into a drain. 10 MGD tertiary treated sewage conforming to the standards for on land discharge is utilized for gardening. Overall housekeaping at the STP was not satisfactory.

Its reasons need to be investigated. It is seen that even if the plant was operated at a MLSS level of 4000 mg/L (or 3200 mg/L MLVSS) it would run at an F/M ratio 0.43 for the observed influent BOD. Thus the plant can operate as conventional process and not as an extended process. Overall efficiency of the plant is very good. However, it appears that tertiary sedimentation played a major role in achieving this efficiency. Low MLSS in aeration tank indicates that the biological treatment is not being utilized to its full capacity. Optimum use of biological unit will help reducing chemical costs in tertiary treatment.

Fifty percent wastewater was being bypassed without treatment to Jalmahal lake even though capacity of the plant remained under utilized. At the time of study the plant was mainly receiving industrial effluent of textile processing units located in Grahmapuri instead of sewage and overall operation and maintenance of the plant was very poor. Screens and grit channels were not being cleaned and only 15 of the total 46 aerators were operational. As a consequence of high strength wastewater coming to STP and poor operation and maintenance, the plant was not able to meet the standards. High TSS in final clarifiier outlet also indicate that the plant is not operating properly.

Remarks: i) The Sewage interception works at Kanpur are maintained and operated poorly. During heavy shortage of power (5 hr. load shedding) the sewage pumping station at Jajmau, Kanpur remains non-operational resulting in discharge of 25 to 30 MLD untreated sewage into R. Ganga every day. Individual performance of primary settling unit and ASP unit can to be commented upon. However, overall performance of the plant is suboptimal. Considering the minimal HRT of the aeration tank, it may not be possible to operate the plant at the recommended SRT of 9 days. However, if the plant could be operated at any SRT value higher than 5 day, it may provide sufficient safety factor. High TSS in final clarifiier outlet also indicate that the plant is not operating properly. Treated sewage quality does not conform to the standards for discharge in streams. It is observed that the performance of plant can be improved further.

Gas formation in UASB system was found below optimum level and thus the treatment economics of the plant is being affected. Flow in inlet varied highly and thus put pressure on reactor's performance and in maintenance of sludge blanket. Proper screening must be ensured; otherwise it is delivering trash into the reactors. Overall performance of the plant is satisfactory. TSS in UASB effluent seems higher. If it can be improved, efficiency of UASB in terms of BOD/COD will also improve correspondingly.

Plant was nonoperational in the moring hours of day of monitoring due to power cut. Plant is not able to meet the standards in terms of BOD and TSS. Improvement in outlet structures may be required to control high TSS, and the associated BOD/CODin the effluent. It is expected that control of TSS within 50 mg/L may enable achieving BOD standards also. About 20% of treated sewage is utilized for irrigation but the rest 80% is discharged into an unlinned drain and this is accumulating and water logging a large area. High TSS and COD as compared to BOD in raw sewage indicates possibility of addition of industrial waste. pH 7.8 7.9 5.5-9 BOD 141 41 30 COD 752 140 250 TSS 861 168 100 TDS Fecal Colliform 5 3x10 3 2x10 Total Coliform 6 3x10 3 2x10 AmmN PO4-P 3.99 4.43

There are three nearby drains that presently discharge sewage into three different Beels (Ponds). Gorabazar drain discharges sewage into Chaltia Beel, Barmuri drain that carries about 70% sewage discharges into Bishnupur Beel, and Saidabad drain discharges sewage into Chatra Beel. The three Beels meet another biger Beel, namely, Bhanderdah Beel and thereafter the sewage is discharged into River Pagla Chandi.
