Sewage Treatment Plant Process Flow Diagram: A Step-by-Step Guide
When it comes to ensuring clean and sustainable water management, R&J Waste Water Treatment Organization excels in delivering advanced sewage treatment solutions. Understanding the sewage treatment plant (STP) process flow diagram is essential to appreciate how wastewater is transformed into clean water. Here’s a detailed explanation of the process.
Sewage Treatment Plant Process
1. Inlet Chamber: The process begins with the wastewater entering the inlet chamber. This section collects sewage and directs it to the primary treatment stage. It also prevents large debris from entering the system, safeguarding the downstream equipment.
2. Screening and Grit Removal: The next step involves screening, where coarse materials like plastic, rags, and sticks are removed. Following this, the wastewater passes through grit removal chambers to eliminate sand, gravel, and other heavy particles.
3. Primary Sedimentation Tank: In this stage, the wastewater slows down, allowing suspended solids to settle at the bottom, forming sludge. The lighter materials, such as oil and grease, rise to the surface and are skimmed off.
4. Biological Treatment (Aeration Tank): The clarified wastewater moves to the aeration tank, where microorganisms break down organic pollutants. Oxygen is supplied continuously to support microbial activity, ensuring the effective decomposition of waste.
5. Secondary Clarification: After biological treatment, the water enters the secondary clarifier. Here, the microbial biomass (activated sludge) settles at the bottom, leaving treated water at the top. A portion of the settled sludge is recirculated to maintain microbial activity in the aeration tank, while the excess is directed to sludge treatment.
6. Disinfection: To ensure the treated water is free from harmful pathogens, it undergoes disinfection using methods like chlorination, UV treatment, or ozonation. This step guarantees safe discharge into natural water bodies or reuse.
7. Sludge Treatment: The sludge collected during primary and secondary treatment is further processed through dewatering, anaerobic digestion, or drying for safe disposal or reuse as fertilizer.
