Case Study

Bakhtiyarpur I&D and STP

Introduction:

The Government of India recognizes that sanitation is a state subject and on-ground implementation of the same and sustenance of public health and environmental outcomes requires strong city-level institutions and stakeholders. A Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is a facility that removes sewage and contaminants from water to make it suitable for release into natural water sources. 

Problems:

STPs remove contaminants and pollutants from sewage, making it safe for discharge into water bodies. By treating sewage, STPs help prevent water pollution, protecting aquatic life and human health. Treated water can be reused for non-potable purposes like irrigation, toilet flushing, and industrial processes. STPs help regulate sewer flows, reducing overflows during heavy rainfall events.

Solution:

Sewer from drains will flow to a pumping station and then to STP and in STP the sewer will get refined through a grit chamber and then flow to SBR. In SBR it will get treated through aeration and decantation, and effluent will flow for chlorination. The treated effluent can be used for irrigation purposes now.

Challenges:

Getting NOCs from different departments and COVID-19 along with public hindrance was a challenge. 

Innovation:

The scale of the world’s human waste problem is vast, impacting human health, coastal and terrestrial ecosystems, and even climate change. Solving the problem requires working with communities to develop solutions that suit them, providing access to adequate sanitation and adapting ageing sewage systems to a rapidly changing world. 

Outcomes:

The River Ganga is getting cleaned and STPs reduce the risk of waterborne diseases. Treated water can be reused for non-potable purposes like irrigation, toilet flushing, and industrial processes.

Opportunities:

The program will cover 28 ULBs that are expected to become economic hubs. The program is envisaged to improve the quality of services received by a 6.36 million urban population, of which 2.83 million are urban poor.

Summary:

The Bakhtiyarpur Town has no sewerage network, as a result, the house drains directly discharge the sewage into the nearby storm water drains and ultimately flow into the open land and River Ganga. As a result, the water quality of the rivers gets highly contaminated in certain places. So, STP is necessary to be built in here.
