Performance Evaluation of Industrial Wastewater Treatment Plant

Beschreibung

Dairy industry is one of the major industries causing water pollution. In India, dairy industry generates about 6-10 L wastewater/L of milk processed depending upon the process employed and product manufactured. Poorly treated wastewater with high levels of pollutants caused by poor design, operation or treatment systems creates major environmental problems when discharged to surface water or land.

Considering the above stated implications an attempt has been made in the present project to evaluate one of the WWTP for dairy waste. Samples were collected from six points; Raw effluent [P-1], Oil and grease trap [P-2], Equalization tank [P-3], Aeration tank 1 [P-4], Aeration tank 2 [P-5] and Secondary clarifier [P-6] to evaluate the performance of WWTP. Parameters analyzed for evaluation of performance of WWTP are COD, BOD5 at 20° C, TSS, Total Nitrogen, Phosphorous, oil and grease, Chloride and Sulphates.
