This document proposes a movable sewer treatment system for military establishments. It identifies problems with current non-permanent military establishments lacking adequate sewage treatment. The objectives are to identify problems, review sewer treatment technologies, design aspects for mobile sewerage treatment. It reviews common sewer treatment processes and literature on mobile biological treatment units. Research gaps include high costs and membrane fouling of MBR systems, inability to reach BOD and nitrogen targets, and downstream equipment issues. The proposal is for a self-contained mobile wastewater treatment system incorporating primary treatment, biological SBR treatment, clarification, and optional tertiary treatment modules.

1. PROPOSAL OF PRE
SELECTION MOVABLE
SEWER TREATMENT
SYSTEM FOR MILITARY
ESTABLISHMENTS

2. Introduction
 Every year water and sanitation problems cause more deaths than
war and the lack of sanitation is the world’s biggest cause of
diseases.
 48% of the world’s population does not have access to adequate
sewage treatment.
 Therefore need to proper treatment system in every sector.
 A treatment plant’s primary objectives are to clean the sewage
and meet the plant’s discharge standards.
 The treatment plant personnel do this by reducing the
concentrations of solids, organic matter, nutrients, pathogens and
other pollutants in sewage.

3. Objectives
1
• Identify the problem
• Sewer treatment technologies
2
• Design aspects for the sewerage
treatment
3
• Design of sewerage treatment for mobile
application

4. Identify the problem
 Consider in military establishments, most of establishments are
not a permanent cantonments.
 Military person are involve in sudden disasters in the country (ex:
war, flooding, landslides, pandemic situations).
 Nearly 300 to 500 heads basically movement in cases of the
military establishment.
 At that case nearly 49000L to 8200L sewerage discharge per day.
 Also need to minimum 20 days sewerage disposal and treatment
process.

5. Identify the problem
 Normally military people effluent BOD nearly 300mg/L.
 Before discharge the effluent need to design movable sewerage
treatment plant for reduce BOD level up to 25mg/L.
 Other thing is the latest disaster in the world is Covid pandemic
situation.

6. Sewer treatment technologies
 Physical treatment
 Screens
 Grit chamber
 Clarifiers

7.  Biological treatment
 Trickling filter
 Activated sludge
 Rotating biological contractors
 Pond system
 Chemical treatment
 Chemical reaction

8. Sewer treatment process

9. Literature Survey

10. Research gaps
1. Most of the cases using MBR system
 Impacts on their cost, relative to their design & operation
 Membrane surface fauling,clogging
 Member surface cleaning
 Member aeration
2. Treated effluent is not meeting biochemical oxygen demand (bod)
targets
 Incomplete wastewater treatment due to organic overloading
 Low oxygen concentration
 High algae or sulphur bacteria growth
 Low hydraulic detention time

11. 1. Downstream equipment is failing due to a build of large solids, hairs and fibres
 Downstream plant and equipment from any possible damage
 Accumulation of unwanted material that will interfere with the wastewater
treatment process
1. Treated effluent is not meeting total nitrogen (TN) target
2. A direct consequence of odour issues associated with the sewerage treatment
plant

12. Proposal
1. Primary treatment/screening
 Mechanical pre-treatment on top of the container
 Install compact units for grease separation and sand remova
 Tanks collect the removed waste constituents for separate disposal
 Primary treatment can be built into the system by use of settling in a
pre-treatment tank
1. Biological treatment
 process can incorporate an SBR type system
 The type of biological treatment depends on the wastewater type and
concentration
 biological treatment process and all necessary controls are fully built into the
container

13. 1. Clarification
 effluent is use separators built into containers providing high flow capacity
final clarification prior to discharge.
1. Tertiary treatment
 where stringent discharge limits exist and require the integration of tertiary treatment
modules into the treatment process such as chemical dosing, phosphorous reduction and
disinfection
