This document discusses a study on using a natural and artificial integrated multimedia filter for treating sewage wastewater. A laboratory scale model was developed consisting of two reactors packed with different combinations of plastic scrubbers and green coconut shells. The model was able to remove over 50% of BOD, over 55% of COD, and around 73% of total solids when operated for 20 hours of detention time. The study concluded that a multimedia filter approach can be an efficient process for domestic wastewater treatment and that natural materials like coconut shells combined with artificial materials like plastic scrubbers can enhance treatment system performance.
Designed For Combined Common Effluent Treatment Plant Of Tarapur Midcvivatechijri
Â
The population growth in India is immense. Accordingly, the water supply amount is enormous which,
in return generates large amounts of wastewater. One such region is the Palghar Boisar region whose population
growth according to calculations will sky rocket. But the amount of sewage treatment plants present is only one for
a particular area. So, to combat this we decided to construct another Sewage treatment plant per another area. In
this project we will discuss the population growth of the region, design parameters, the method selection for
design, introduction and the complete design of a sewage treatment plant for Tarapur MIDC. The treatment
procedure has been developed to treat sewage and reuse the water for various purposes like water to gardening,
toilet flushing, farming and other requirements for Sewage treatment plant, Tarapur MIDC.

Life-cycle assessment or LCA (also known as life-cycle analysis) is a methodology for assessing environmental impacts associated with all the stages of the life-cycle of a commercial product, process, or service. For instance, in the case of a manufactured product, environmental impacts are assessed from raw material extraction and processing (cradle), through the product's manufacture, distribution, and use, to the recycling or final disposal of the materials composing it.
RECYCLING OF GREY WATER INTO USABLE WATER BY USING NATURAL MATERIALSvivatechijri
Â
Recycling of Grey water generated from different industries by using the natural filter materials
and making the water reusable for sanitary and irrigation purposes. The aim is to reduce the costly recyclable
process of grey water to its minimum cost, hence making it suitable for village and low-income areaswhen such
water can be treated at place with less cost and by achieving almost same quality of water. In view of rising
concern about pollution of water bodies due to discharge of waste in them, itis necessary to initiate alternative
thinking as conventional methodsthrough Sewage treatment Plants have had limited success. In Rural areas we
have some natural materials which can purify the water if used properly. In recent years many techniques by
using such natural filters for purifying Grey water had came up. It treats the wastewater in natural manner
without the use of chemicals. In short, the method used for this project is the improved method of using natural
materials for recycling Grey water and obtaining best quality of recycled Grey water. The main objective of
present research work is to provide and popularize a simple, feasible, practically sound, ecofriendly and costeffective technology for wastewatertreatment. In this filterthe filtration is done by gravitationalforce. By using
such Techniques, the load on the sewage impact will be reduced and will be converted into useable water for
sanitary, gardening and irrigation purposes
Solid waste means any garbage, refuse, sludge from a wastewater treatment plant, water supply treatment plant, or air pollution control facility and other discarded materials including solid, liquid, semi-solid, or contained gaseous material, resulting from industrial, commercial, mining and agricultural operations, and from community activities.

Domestic Wastewater Treatment by Root Zone Technology Option: Colacassia PlantDr. Amarjeet Singh
Â
Root Zone Technology is one of the low cost
methods to treat wastewater. With the help of this system we
can treat the Non-Point sources with best results. To achieve
this goal we have to divide the Non-Point sources into
constructed channels within the river bank followed by root
zone bed or if the Non-Point Sources is coming from natural
nallas we can provide this system within its Channel. We
have prepared channel on which I have developed the root
zone bed and have lab analysis of rector out put on number
of parameters. Flow rate and Detention time are the two
factors on which channels are to be designed. Therefore I
am changing the flow rate and finding out the change in
parameter with respect to detection time. The optimization
is when we get best result with maximum flow. I have got
satisfactory results for the detention time of Three day,
Seven day and twenty one day and Three day. With the help
of this data I have designed the root zone bed system for the
selected actual Domestic Sources.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
Â
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

1. INTRODUCTION
Wastewater engineering is the branch of environmental engineering in which the basic principles of science and
engineering are applied to solve the issues associated with the treatment and reuse of wastewater. The ultimate goal of
wastewater engineering is the protectionof public healthina mannercommensurate withenvironmental,economic,social and
political concerns. When untreated wastewater accumulates and is allowed to go septic, the decomposition of the organic
matter it contains, will lead to nuisance conditions including the production of malodorous gases. In addition, untreated
wastewater contains numerous pathogenic microorganisms that dwell inthehumanintestinal tract.Wastewateralsocontains
nutrients, which can stimulate the growth of aquatic plants and may contain toxic compounds or compounds that potentially
may be mutagenic or carcinogenic. For these reasons, theimmediateand nuisance-free removal ofwastewaterfrom itssources
of generation, followed by treatment, reuse, or dispersal into the environment is necessary to protect public health and the
environment. In this paper study about treatmentofwastewaterusingnatural andartificial multimedia filterwascarriedoutto
achieve optimum cleaning

1.3 MATERIAL AND METHODS
Filter media a filter media is one of the prime components in the multimedia filter system as it provides large surface
area to enhance the microbial growth. Efficiency of multimedia filter depends upon the types of media, sizes, surface
porosity and roughness of filter media. Therefore the selection of a suitable filter media is critical part in the design of
operation and multimedia filter process, in order to obtain the higher removal efficiency.Inthepresentstudydifferenttypesof
two media were used such as green coconut shells and plastic scrubbers (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). The laboratory scale model was
fabricated with HDPE sheet (high density polyethylene) and consists of two reactors placed in series with up flow and down
flow regime the total reactor volume was of 150 liters capacity. The model was based on the principle of attached growth
system. Two reactors were packed with different packing media of different sizes. The depth of the media was kept
accordingly. The inlet and outlet arrangement were provided at appropriate locations.
The sewage wastewater was fed into inlet tank the wastewater from inlet tank enters the inlet chamber and flowsinsequence
i.e. from the first reactor to the last reactor and then enters the collecting chamber and was collected from the outlet. The
wastewater from the inlet chamber enters the first reactor through the perforated PVC pipes. The perforated PVC pipes were
provided so as to provide uniform distribution throughout the reactor.Thewastewaterthuspassesuniformlythroughthefirst
reactor and gets partially treated and enters the second reactor. Thewastewaterwhichwaspartiallytreatedinthe firstreactor
moves to the second reactor in up flow regime. The wastewater thus rises uniformly at the same time it gets treated. The
wastewater thus passes uniformly through the second reactor and gets treated and enters the collecting chamber by the up
flow movement. The wastewater was collected in the collecting chamber and afterreachingtheoutletlevel thetreatedeffluent
was collected in the outlet tank. The model was packed with green coconut shells and plastic scrubbers as packing media in
layered configuration.

2. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
During the study, the effluent was collected in the collection tank and wasanalyzedfor variousparameterssuchaspH,
BOD, COD and TS. Throughout the study the multimedia filter was operated for varying detention time of 12hrs, 18hrs and
24hrs. It was observed that removal efficiency for BOD was 54.9% , COD was 57.8% and TS was 73.1% for 20 hours of
detention time. The multimedia filter process gave best result for TS removal. It is observed that after 20hr of treatment there
is no significant changes in removal of all parameter

3. CONCLUSION
Multimedia filtration technology has potential for application to small-scale systems. Multi-media filters are the recent
development in the filtration technology which involvesuseofmultiple media otherthantheconventional media asopposedto sand
used in the conventional sand filters. It can also be concluded fromthestudythatthe multimedia filtermaybeconsideredasefficient
treatment process for domestic wastewater. The recent developments in the media types suchas coconutshell andplastic scrubber
have expanded new areas for study. Also the above media may enhance the performance of the treatment system. Hence this
