The last couple of decades have seen a largescale population migration from rural India to Urban India. Better job opportunities, access to education and medical facilities and a comfortable life style are few of the reasons for people shifting from rural areas to urban population canters. ULBs could not cope up with the rate of increase of population. Supporting infrastructure like water supply, sewage treatment and disposal, MSW disposal and other facilities crumbled under the exponential increase in demand. Shortage of fresh water and lack of sewage treatment infrastructure are interlinked problems. Disposal of untreated sewage in to water bodies pollute the water, making it unfit for municipal water supply even after the treatment.
The larger is the system, more is the cost of maintenance and operation and lesser is the efficiency. This statement is true for large-scale sewage collection and treatment systems. It is more prudent to opt for small scale, decentralised, community base STPs. Such STPs will be installed and operated with the help of community participating. Decentralised treatment approach will not only reduce the expenditure on the operation and maintenance of central system, but attain a far better efficiency. Decentralised approach will open the avenues for sewage to be termed as an alternate source of water and energy. This approach will have a positive environmental effect. Pollution in the surface water bodies will be reduced.
Decentralised disposal of municipal solid waste obtained from group housing societies will reduce the load on municipal waste collection system. A well-managed decentralised solid waste treatment facility has potential to be financially self-sustainable. Segregated organic waste which constitute approximately 60% of the waste can be converted in to compost, balance non-organic waste can be disposed of as scrap / reused / recycled.
There is lots of scope for new research and technologies such as cost-effective technology for extraction of methane from the sewage. Lot of work is being carried out in this field. In near future, this technology will not only address the sewage problem, but also provide cost effective clean fuel. Similarly, there are centuries old sanitation technologies like WC toilets, which now have to be evolved in to water conserving or waterless toilets.

The document discusses challenges with urban infrastructure in India, specifically related to water supply, sewage treatment, and solid waste management. It notes that urban growth has outpaced infrastructure development. For water supply, issues include inadequate and intermittent supply, high transmission losses, and lack of metering. For sewage, most wastewater is untreated. For solid waste, open dumping remains the primary method of disposal. Solutions proposed include improving management, public-private partnerships, reducing losses, rainwater harvesting, and awareness campaigns. Challenges to addressing these issues include treatment costs, private sector reluctance, and ensuring citizen participation.
This keynote address discusses strategies for promoting water use efficiency in urban areas to address climate change impacts. It notes that while India has 17% of the world's population, it only has 4% of renewable water resources. Current per capita availability is declining and will face further strain from population growth and climate change. Groundwater overexploitation is a major issue, with over 50% of assessment units facing problems. The address calls for adopting water conservation measures like rainwater harvesting and wastewater recycling in urban areas. It emphasizes adopting an integrated approach to urban water management through conjunctive use of surface and groundwater, reducing leakage, and establishing water regulatory authorities.
A presentation given at the annual meeting of the American Planning Association, Utah Chapter. This presentation illustrates the need for water conservation districts and municipalities to work together to ensure that water supply planning is part of the community development process at every level.
The presentation includes some basic design changes we can all encourage that improve efficiency without sacrificing the quality of our shared landscape experience. Additionally, it encourages adoption of ordinances which support conservation- with particular emphasis on parkstrips.
Our biggest challenge in this new century is to take an idea that seems abstract – sustainable development – and turn it into a reality for all the world’s people. Rampant urbanization and climate changes have triggered severe and frequent natural disasters. Green infrastructure provides an opportunity to reassess how we manage and use green spaces through the identification and provision of interconnected green spaces that protect, manage and enhance environmental resources. Successful green and blue infrastructure planning is recognized as a natural solution and less expensive alternative to conventional 'grey' infrastructure that is environmentally friendly. As we are at the edge of climate change tipping points, integrating blue-green-grey infrastructure is a necessity to design sustainable and climate resilient cities.

This document discusses the need for adaptive and sustainable groundwater management. It begins by characterizing aquifer systems and risks. It then discusses challenges of managing groundwater in irrigated agricultural areas and the need for integrated, adaptive management policies. Case studies from Brazil, Argentina, Peru and other areas demonstrate issues like overpumping, pollution hazards and rising salinity. The document advocates for pragmatic planning frameworks, balancing community participation with administration. It stresses the importance of conjunctive use, numerical models, monitoring and financing management measures. Vertical integration and horizontal coordination are needed between different governing bodies. Urban groundwater also requires management to fill institutional voids and address impacts on infrastructure from an often overlooked resource.
Rainwater Harvesting in an Urban Context : Training of Urban Local Bodiesbiomeshubha
1. The document discusses rainwater harvesting techniques used in an urban neighborhood called Rainbow Drive in Bangalore, India to address increasing water scarcity problems.
2. Rainbow Drive was dependent on groundwater from borewells, but several borewells had dried up in recent years, leaving residents without a reliable water source.

This document discusses the topic of reduction in rainfall in different parts of India. It begins with an introduction and acknowledgements. It then discusses what precipitation is and how it occurs through dynamic and microphysical processes. The main causes of reduced rainfall in India are identified as lack of pollution control, destruction of forests, population growth, and poor water management. Suggested solutions include setting up more pollution control centers, using public transportation, passing laws against cutting trees, and celebrating tree planting festivals. The conclusion thanks teachers and others for their help with the project.
This document discusses the importance of irrigation in developing countries. It notes that while water resources are limited globally, the main problem is uneven distribution and poor water management. Irrigation has significantly increased global food production but projects have often been poorly designed and negatively impacted environments. Improving water productivity and efficiency through better pricing, incentives for conservation technologies, and increased trade could help address water challenges. The key is reforming institutions and policies to enable more efficient regional water management.

• DECENTRALISED TREATMENT APPROACH WILL NOT ONLY REDUCE THE EXPENDITURE ON THE OPERATION
AND MAINTENANCE OF CENTRAL SYSTEM, BUT ATTAIN A FAR BETTER EFFICIENCY
• THIS APPROACH WILL HAVE A POSITIVE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECT
• Pollution in the surface water bodies will be reduced.
9. ABSTRACT
• A WELL-MANAGED DECENTRALISED SOLID WASTE TREATMENT FACILITY HAS POTENTIAL TO BE
FINANCIALLY SELF-SUSTAINABLE
• SEGREGATED ORGANIC WASTE WHICH CONSTITUTE APPROXIMATELY 60% OF THE WASTE CAN BE
CONVERTED IN TO COMPOST, BALANCE NON-ORGANIC WASTE CAN BE DISPOSED OF AS SCRAP / REUSED /
RECYCLED.
• THERE IS LOTS OF SCOPE FOR NEW RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS COST-EFFECTIVE
TECHNOLOGY FOR EXTRACTION OF METHANE FROM THE SEWAGE
• LOT OF WORK IS BEING CARRIED OUT IN THIS FIELD. IN NEAR FUTURE, THIS TECHNOLOGY WILL NOT ONLY
ADDRESS THE SEWAGE PROBLEM, BUT ALSO PROVIDE COST EFFECTIVE CLEAN FUEL
• THERE ARE CENTURIES OLD SANITATION TECHNOLOGIES LIKE WC TOILETS, WHICH NOW HAVE TO BE
EVOLVED IN TO WATER CONSERVING OR WATERLESS TOILETS.
10. INTRODUCTION
• THIS WORK DEALS WITH TWO MAJOR ISSUES
• URBAN WATER STRESS
• DISPOSAL OF WASTE – MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE AND SEWAGE
• HOW AVAILABILITY OF WATER AND DISPOSAL OF WASTE HAS BECOME A CHALLENGE IN URBAN AREAS
• JOB SEEKER'S MIGRATING FROM RURAL AREAS TO UNBAN AREAS
• LACK OF FORESIGHT OF ULBs
• DEMAND SUPPLY GAP
• ADEQUATE WATER IS NOT AVAILABLE IN URBAN AREAS (NCR)- DEPENDENCY ON EXTERNAL SOURCES
• LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE TO DEAL WITH MUNICIPAL WASTE
• NET RESULT – ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION

22. • FIVE MAJOR CITIES OF NCR HAVE SEEN 100% POPULATION GROWTH IN THE PAST TWO DECADES
• WATER SUPPLY, SEWAGE DISPOSAL, ROAD SPACE & TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND DISPOSAL OF
MUNICIPAL WASTE ARE THE MAJOR CHALLENGES
• A SIZABLE PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION IN NCR LIVES IN MULTI-STOREY APARTMENTS
SEWAGE AND SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL IN HIGHRISE BUILDINGS:
3.1.- INTRODUCTION
23. AN ECONOMICALLY VIABLE APPROACH TO ACCOMMODATE THE EXODUS OF POPULATION TO BIG CITIES
(a) CONCENTRATED WATER REQUIREMENT – HIGH DENSITY OF POPULATION IN MULTI-STOREY ENTAILS HIGH WATER
REQUIREMENTS IN SMALL POCKETS.
(b) DEPENDING ON LOCAL ‘FAR’ , HIGH-RISE RESIDENTIAL COMPLEXES HAVE OPEN AREA / COMMON AREA WHICH
ARE INVARIABLY DEVELOPED AS PARKS / RECREATIONAL SPACE / GREEN AREA
(c) PARKING SPACE IS PROVIDED IN THE BASEMENTS
(d) DUE TO HIGH DENSITY OF POPULATION, DENSITY OF SEWAGE AND SOLID WASTE GENERATION IS ALSO VERY
HIGH
(e) ORGANIZED BODY TO TAKE CARE OF DAY-TO-DAY AFFAIR SO THE SOCIETY
(f) HIGH RISE RESIDENTIAL COMPLEXES HAVE POTENTIAL FOR DECENTRALIZED TREATMENT OF SOLID WASTE AND
SEWAGE GENERATED WITHIN THE COMPLEX.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS
• ORGANIC MATTER - MEASURED IN TERMS OF BOD AND COD, ORGANIC MATTER LEADS TO
DEPLETION OF OXYGEN IN WATER BODIES
• NITROGEN & PHOSPHORUS - ALGAL GROWTH AND EUTROPHICATION OF WATER BODIES
• SUSPENDED SOLIDS - REPRESENT THAT FRACTION OF TOTAL SOLIDS IN ANY WASTEWATER THAT
CAN BE SETTLED GRAVITATIONALLY (A) ORGANIC (B) INORGANIC
• BACTERIAL PARAMETER (FECAL COLIFORM) - BACTERIAL PARAMETERS, SUCH AS FECAL
COLIFORM (FC), ARE ALSO VERY IMPORTANT WHEN HUMAN HEALTH IS THE PRIME CONCERN.
• OIL AND GREASE
SEWAGE AND SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL IN HIGHRISE BUILDINGS:
3.4.- CHARACTERISTICS OF DOMESTIC SEWAGE
Eutrophication is an enrichment of water by nutrient salts
that causes structural changes to the ecosystem such
as: increased production of algae and aquatic plants,
depletion of fish species, general deterioration of water
quality and other effects that reduce and preclude use
26. MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE CONTAINS ABOUT 50-55 % OF BIODEGRADABLE WASTE, 11% IS PAPER AND CARDBOARD, 14 %
OF PLASTIC AND PACKAGING MATERIAL, 6% OF GLASS AND METAL AND THE REMAINING 20-25% ARE INERT MATERIALS
WASTE GENERATED IN RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS HAS A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF BIODEGRADABLE WASTE WHICH CAN BE
AS HIGH AS UP TO 70 TO 75%.
ULBs IN NCR HAVE STIPULATED GUIDELINES FOR DISPOSAL OF SOLID WASTE FROM GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES
(a) CENTRALIZED COLLECTION OF WASTE IN THE SOCIETY
(b) SEGREGATION OF WASTE AT SOURCE
(c) COMPOSTING OF ORGANIC WASTE
(d) SOCIETY TO PAY CONVENIENCE CHARGES FOR DISPOSAL OF SEGREGATED WASTE
MANY GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES HAVE ADOPTED THE ULBS GUIDELINES. 60% TO 70% OF THE TOTAL WASTE IS
TREATED WITHIN THE SOCIETY

HUGE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COST
SMALL TOWNS AND VILLAGES ADOPTED DECENTRALIZED SEWAGE TREATMENT - INDIVIDUAL SEPTIC TANK / SOAKAGE
PIT-BASED SEWAGE DISPOSAL
DECENTRALIZED SEWAGE TREATMENT APPROACH IS A NEW CONCEPT IN URBAN SCENARIO
WITH THE EMERGING CONCEPT OF HIGH-RISE BUILDINGS AND GROUP HOUSINGS; ADOPTION OF A DECENTRALIZED
SEWAGE TREATMENT APPROACH IS FEASIBLE
IT IS NOW MANDATORY IN NCR FOR ALL GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES TO TREAT SEWAGE GENERATED IN THE SOCIETY
NEW DECENTRALIZED SEWAGE TREATMENT NORMS ARE EASY TO IMPLEMENT IN NEW / UNDER PLANNING PROJECTS.
HOWEVER, IMPLEMENTATION OF SUCH NORMS IN COMPLETED PROJECTS HAS ITS OWN ASSOCIATED CHALLENGES –COST
, SPACE , APPREHENSION TO USE RECYCLED WATER

SHIFT FROM AGRARIAN
ECONOMY – POPULATION
MIGRATION FROM RURAL TO
URBAN AREAS
35. PROBLEM DEFINITION
5.2 FRESH WATER -DEMAND AND SUPPLY GAP
NONE OF THE CITIES OF NCR ARE SELF SUFFICIENT TO MEET THEIR WATER REQUIREMENT. NCR WATER
REQUIREMENT IS MET THROUGH SUPPLY OF WATER FROM EXTERNAL SOURCES
DURING SUMMER SESSION, WHEN POLLUTION LEVEL IN THE RIVER RISES BEYOND TREATMENT CAPACITY
OF THE PLANTS, WATER SCARCITY FURTHER DEEPENS.
GROUND WATER TABLE HAS ALREADY TOUCHED ALARMINGLY LOW LEVELS AND IS FURTHER GOING DOWN.
THE MULTI-STOREY GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES, HAVING TYPICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH LARGER
POPULATION DENSITY, HAVE CONCENTRATED FRESH WATER DEMAND
WATER DEMAND CAN BE SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCED BY ADOPTING DECENTRALIZED SEWAGE TREATMENT
AND PARTIAL REUSE OF TREATED WATER.
36. PROBLEM DEFINITION
5.3 SEWAGE GENERATION AND DISPOSAL
ACCORDING TO THE NITI AAYOG REPORT, APPROXIMATELY 33% OF URBAN WASTEWATER IS TREATED IN THE COUNTRY, AND A VERY SMALL
PART OF TREATED WATER IS REUSED
ONLY A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF SEWAGE GENERATED IS TREATED, THE BALANCE OFUNTREATED SEWER IS RELEASED INTO SURFACE WATER
BODIES
NCT OF DELHI ALONE GENERATES 3268 MLD OF SEWAGE AGAINST AVAILABLE TREATMENT CAPACITY OF 2756 MLD, WHEREAS ONLY
AROUND 2083 MLD IS BEING TREATED
DUE TO THE POOR STATE OF MAINTENANCE OF THE SEWAGE COLLECTION SYSTEM, SEWAGE DOES NOT REACH UPTO STPS IN ADEQUATE
QUANTITY
UNTREATED SEWAGE NOT ONLY POLLUTES WATER BODIES BUT NOW IT SHOULD BE SEEN AS LOSS OF POTENTIAL WATER SOURCE, WHICH
CAN MEET UP TO 35% TO THE WATER DEMAND.
MULTI STOREY RESIDENTIAL SOCIETIES AND HIGH DENSE POPULATION AREAS HAVE POTENTIAL FOR ESTABLISHMENT OF DECENTRALISED
SEWAGE TREATMENT FACILITIES.
37. PROBLEM DEFINITION
5.4 MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE GENERATION AND DISPOSAL
NCT DELHI COMPRISING FIVE MUNICIPAL CORPORATIONS, WITH OVER 280 WARDS, GENERATE APPROXIMATELY 15,000 MT OF MUNICIPAL
WASTE PER DAY.
NCT OF DELHI COLLECTS OVER 12750 MT OF MUNICIPAL WASTE PER DAY. THE COLLECTED WASTE IS DISPOSED OF AT VARIOUS WASTE
DISPOSAL / TREATMENT FACILITIES RUN BY DELHI MUNICIPAL AUTHORITIES.
ULBs ARE NEITHER EQUIPPED NOR HAVE THE RESOURCES TO DEAL WITH SUCH A MASSIVE QUANTITY OF WASTE. MAJORITY OF THE
MUNICIPAL WASTE IS DISPOSED OF IN OPEN LANDFILLS. A VERY MARGINAL PERCENTAGE OF SOLID WASTE IS UTILIZED IN WASTE TO
ENERGY GENERATION FACILITIES OR DISPOSED OF IN OTHER RECYCLING FACILITIES
MSW OBTAINED FROM MULTI-STOREY GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES, MAINLY CONSIST OF BIODEGRADABLE WASTE, PAPER & CARDBOARD,
PLASTIC & PACKAGING MATERIAL, GLASS & METAL AND MARGINAL PERCENTAGE OF CONSTRUCTION WASTE
IF WASTE OBTAINED FROM THE GROUP HOUSING SOCIETIES OR DENSELY POPULATED AREAS ISSEGREGATED AND TREATED CLOSE TO THE
SOURCE OF GENERATION , IT WILL CONSIDERABLY REDUCE OVERALL MSW LOAD ON ULBs.
BIODEGRADABLE WASTE IF PROPERLY SEGREGATED AT SOURCE ITSELF CAN BE DISPOSED OF IN SMALL COMPOSTING FACILITIES. OTHER
REUSABLE / RECYCLABLE WASTE AFTER DUE SEGREGATION CAN BE DISPOSED OF THROUGH LOCAL KABADIWALAS / NGOS/ULBS

72. CONCLUSION
• THE MAIN IMPACT OF OVERCROWDING OF CITIES IS ON THE ENVIRONMENT. RAMPART POLLUTION HAS
STARTED ADVERSELY AFFECTING THE LIFE OF HUMAN BEING AND FLORA AND FAUNA.
• SURFACE WATER BODIES ARE CONTAMINATED DUE TO DUMPING OF UNTREATED SEWAGE, GROUND
WATER IS BEING CONTAMINATED DUE TO LEACHATE FROM OVER FLOWING LANDFILLS.
• IT IS ACT NOW OR NEVER SITUATION. ULBs HAVE TO ACT NOW TO ENSURE THAT THE CITIES REMAIN
HABITABLE.
74. Moving bed biofilm reactor
• MBBR wastewater treatment system enables efficient results of the
disposal using low energy. The technology is used to separate organic
substances, nitrification and denitrification. MBBR design is made of an
activated sludge aeration system. The sludge is collected on the plastic
carriers which have a large internal surface area. The surface area in the
carriers optimizes the contact of water, air, and the bacteria.
• MBBR activated sludge is the application of MBBR media to an overloaded
treatment plant when upgrading.
• MBBR is applicable to the different quality of wastewater treatment. The
application is determined by the desired results and regulations controlling
discharge. The system can be of more than one stage depending on
specific needs. The stages are made of individual tanks separated by
screens to ensure that bacteria remain in their specific tank.
75. Moving bed biofilm reactor
• MBBR Media Used in Wastewater Treatment
• Aeration tank: The tank is similar to an activated sludge tank. The
aeration is used to keep in motion the activated sludge and carriers.
The MBBR system separates the excess bacteria and sludge which
are directed to the final separator.
• Special plastic carriers: They provide a surface for biofilm growth.
Carrier materials are made of materials with a density close to that
of water (1g/cm3) an example is high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
with a density of 0.9g/cm3. These carriers are moved in the tank
through the aeration system. This ensures good contact between the
wastewater and the biomass on the carriers.
76. Moving bed biofilm reactor
• Benefits of MBBR Technology
• Saving of space due to its compactness
• Easy to maintain
• Good for a high volume of load
• Extension and expanding are easy. This made possible by increasing the filling degree of carriers.
• Lower discharge costs
• MBBR is not affected by toxic shock
• Independent process performance because there is no return line for sludge; the MBBR eliminates
the return activated sludge (RAS)
• It has high effectiveness of sludge retention time (SRT) which enhances the nitrification process
• Production of sludge is lower
• It does not need recycling of the sludge-like activated sludge system
• MBBR media is installed to retrofit existing activated sludge tanks in order to increase its capacity
