1. Screen Chamber

The influent sewage water passes


through a bar screen to remove all
large objects like cans, rags, sticks,
plastic packets etc. carried in the
sewage stream. This is most
commonly done with an automated
mechanically raked bar screen in
modern plants serving large
populations, whilst in smaller or
less modern plants, a manually
cleaned screen may be used. Gap
beetween 2 bars is 25mm
2.GRIT REMOVAL PROCESS

Pre-treatment may include a sand


or grit channel or chamber, where
the velocity of the incoming sewage
is adjusted to allow the settlement
of sand, grit, stones, and broken
glass. These particles are removed
because they may damage pumps
and other equipment.
3.Parshall Flume

Measuring both influent and effluent


wastewater flows can be an extremely difficult
task. Because wastewater flows are so caustic,
they can easily corrode most flow management
devices, threatening the accuracy of your
readings.
While the best reason to install a Parshall flume in your
wastewater operation is this flume’s ability to resist
damage from influent flows, this flume type is also
very effective at measuring other types of wastewater
flows.
Wastewater operations are required by law to measure
effluent flows that have the potential of infiltrating
surface water. Due to the way that they are
constructed, Parshall flumes provide a high level of
dimensional accuracy, allowing your operators to take
consistent readings.
4. AAL(Aerobic Aerated Lagoon) and
FAL(Facultative Aerated Lagoon)

An aerated lagoon is a simple wastewater


treatment system consisting of a pond with
artificial aeration to promote the biological
oxidation of wastewaters.
There are many other aerobic biological
processes for treatment of wastewaters, for
example activated sludge, tricklin
filters, rotating biological
contactors and biofilters. They all have in
common the use of oxygen (or air)
and microbial action to reduce the pollutants
in wastewaters.
