The increasing demand for power storage solutions due to shortage of electricity
especially in rural and semi-urban areas of India is never ending. Major population of the
country resides in rural area or semi-urban areas. Therefore, power being most common
source nowadays for human beings in day to day necessary activities like to provide
power for homes, for irrigation in fields, power for many kitchen equipment’s through
invertors etc.
The project is envisaged to meet the demand supply gap in both domestic market and
export market due to increasing dependence on new and shift from conventional sources
of power like coal, wood etc.

Positive and negative grids are casted using lead alloys using grid casting machine.
These form the skeleton for holding the active material and current collection in the
batteries during charge and discharge.
Oxide manufacturing.
Pure lead is oxidized to form lead oxide. This in addition to additives forms the active
material. This gives the energy by undergoing electrochemical reactions with sulphuric
acid.
Paste mixing
This is process of mixing the lead oxide, sulphuric acid, DM water and required
additives and making the pastable mass of active material for pasting on the grids.
Pasting
This is the process of making the battery plates both positive and negative by pasting the
wet active material onto the grid structure.
Paste Filling
This process is used for making tubular positive plates. This process is also as paste
mixing process and after getting required density, Tubular plates are filled in this process.
This is the process by which the wet pasted plates are subjected to curing under
controlled temperature and humidity so as to make the grid to paste adherence rigid and
the plates are now ready for assembling batteries. In case of tubular positive only drying
is required.

Assembly
Both positive and negative plates are stacked alternately with a separator in between
them, quantity per individual models and are grouped. These groups are then inserted
into the container and checked for any short circuit and then the lid is fixed through
heat sealing operation. The sealed batteries will be then subjected to post burning
followed by colored epoxy filling for polarity identification and terminal bonding. It is
then checked for leak proof through air pressure testing and finally etched for coding.
The dry batteries assembled are then filled with sulphuric acid under controlled
volume / weight and put into charging. This is basically a cycle of charge and
discharge to covert the inactive material to active material after which the battery is
ready for service.

A rainwater harvesting system comprises components of various stages namely-
Transporting rainwater through pipes or drains, Filtration, Storage in tanks for reuse or
recharge.
\
Fig: 03– Design of Typical Recharge Pit
The mode of harvesting are basically site specific and depends the amount of
precipitation, availability of total number of rainy days, nature of storage structures,
nature of aquifers etc.
In general CGWB norm suggest not to artificially recharging if water table is less than
5.0 m. Also recharging is not recommended for aquifers with TDS levels higher than
4000 mg/L or high levels of chemical composition like Nitrate, Fluoride, and Arsenic
etc.
In this project it has been planned to provide 04 Nos. rainwater harvesting recharge pit
(Trench) and 04 No. rain water harvesting tank. Rainwater collected from the rooftop
would be diverted by drain pipes to a settlement / filtration tank, from which it would
flow into the recharge pit. Water filters would be provided prior to the chamber to arrest
and separate any suspended matter present in the rain water. The recharge pits are
designed with three concentric circular chambers in which the outer chamber is filled
with sand, the middle one with coarse aggregate and the inner most layer with pebbles.

Based on the area statement, the total roof/surface area receiving the rainfall is as
follows:
The intensity of rainfall considered is 26.71 mm/hr, (Heavy rain fall) which generally
occurs in one hour (for the purpose of calculations, the higher value of rainfall intensity
is being considered in view of unpredictable nature of rainfall for arriving at total storage
volume)

Biological sewage treatment is a process where biological organisms are cultured and
allowed to consume the organic matter and multiply their population. This is by a
process where the organisms secrete enzymes through their cell walls; and these enzymes
solubilize the organic matter and the solution is drawn back into the organisms again
through their cell wall. This is the food. The organisms grow and multiply by a process
called binary fission whereby each organism splits into two complete new organisms.
This is called metabolism. The multiplied organisms are settled out and the clear treated
sewage is free from the organic matter. The metabolism can be by (a) aerobic
The physical activities used to implement the processes are called unit operations. For
example, the physical processes of screening, grit (sand) and suspended solids being
settled out are together referred to as primary treatment. The metabolic process is called
secondary treatment. Unit operation means the physical activity. For example, simple
settling of raw sewage is carried out in primary clarifiers. Pumping air into the sewage

for supplying oxygen to the aerobic metabolism is called aeration. Settling of the
microorganisms after aeration is carried out in secondary clarifiers. The concentration of
settled out organics and microorganisms from primary settling or secondary settling or
both together is carried out in sludge thickeners. The anaerobic metabolism of thickened
sludge is carried out in sludge digesters.
Aerobic Treatment Process: The following treatment processes as also cited in the
advisory issued by the Ministry of Urban Development in March-2012 titled “Recent
Trends in Technologies in Sewage Treatment” fall under the classification of aerobic
treatment

3.6.2 Process Details & Flow schematics of Proposed Effluent Treatment Plant
Clarification/Sedimentation
• Primary settler is commonly used in rectangular clarifiers to increase the
settling capacity by reducing the vertical distance a suspended particle must
travel.
• High efficiency tube settlers use a stack of parallel tubes, rectangles or flat
pieces separated by a few inches (several centimeters) and sloping upwards in
the direction of flow. They provide a very large surface area onto which
particles may fall and become stabilized.
• Because flow is temporarily accelerated between the plates and then
immediately slows down, this helps to aggregate very fine particles that can
settle as the flow exits the plates.
