SEWAGE PIPE LINE

AND
MODERN SEWAGE TREATMENT-
PLANT
Sewage pipe line
 The sewage pipe line in Neyveli has a well planned
sewer line that runs through the perimeter of each
block along the whole township area as a result all the
waste from tubs,toilets,sinks etc. are all channeled
towards the lateral sewer line which then in-turn
chanels to the main sewer line that runs from north-
west to south-west by the action of gravity which has
natural slope also some sewer lines which are far from
main sewer line and can’t be drain by gravity are
concetrated by nearby sumps where pumphouse is
constructed to pump the waste to the main sewer line
and channeled to the modern sewage treatment plant.

Modern sewage treatment plant
 The main sewer pipe drains the waste to the modern
sewage treatment plant where the waste water is
treated by various means and gets discharged to the
free environment for irrigation and other purpose.
 30 million litres per day treated
 specifications
 2 screens
 3 pumps
 Degriter chamber
 Aeration tank
 24 agitators(50hp)
 Sedimentation tanks(2hrs)

treatment plant

Main inlet
PUMPED FOR THE TREATMENT(1300m3 per hour)
Degritter chambers
slow down the flow
so that solids such as
sand, coffee grounds,
and eggshells will
settle out of the
water
Silt is extracted from the waste water then the water enters
aeration tank
• Aeration tank(surface aeration)

• Clarifier(24 agitators having 50 hp)

• Foams are produced

• Sedimentation tanks
• Treated with chlorine and discharged
