Final Main Starting Papers

The document provides an abstract on the anaerobic treatment of sewage in UASB reactors at Amberpet Sewage Treatment Plant in Hyderabad, India. It discusses that the STP treats 339 MLD of sewage, the largest UASB reactor-based STP in Asia. Sewage undergoes pretreatment including screening and degritting before entering 24 UASB reactors where 75% of BOD is reduced. Treated sewage then flows to aeration lagoons and polishing ponds before disinfection and discharge. Biogas produced is used to generate electricity while excess sludge becomes manure. The STP achieves over 75% reduction in BOD load at each treatment stage.

ABSTRACT

The project is titled “ANAEROBIC TREATMENT OF SEWAGE IN UASB


REACTORS AT AMBERPET STP”. Asia’s biggest STP with UASB (Up flow Anaerobic
Sludge Blanket) Technology in terms of Capacity (339 MLD) 226 MLD Sewage is tapped from
outfall sewer chamber. Pretreatment unit consists of 4 mechanical screens, 2 manual screens to
prevent floating materials and conveyor belt for disposing screened materials and 4 degritting
units of 56.5 MLD capacity for removal of grit. Grit is disposed through rake classifier
mechanism. 226 MLD Sewage from these new units and 113 MLD sewage from the existing
plant will collect in wet well of pump house and pumped to reactors by 12 pumps (12 Working +
6 Standby) of 210 HP capacity to a head of +17.0 Mts over a length of 1.5 Km through 2 lines of
M.S. 1800 mm Dia Pipe Lines.

UASB Reactor (24 No.s – 32 Mtr x 28 Mtr x 6.3 Mtr) is the place, where the separation
of Gas, Liquid and solids takes place. BOD Load is reduced by 75% in reactors. Hydraulic
Retention Time (HRT) is 8.88 Hours. Suspended solids settle down to form a blanket at the
bottom, excess sludge will be taken to sludge pump house and pumped to Belt Press where
moisture is removed and it is formed into sludge cakes, which could be used as manure (165
Cum/Day). Gases (6423 Cum/Day) formed like Methane and Hydrogen sulphide are collected in
gas holders (3 Nos), methane is fed to pure gas engines to generate electricity (0.6 to 0.9
MW/Day), while Hydrogen Sulphide is removed by Gas Scrubbing unit. Sewage rising in the
reactors are taken to Facultative Aerated Lagoon (FAL) for aeration. 24 Aerators of 50 HP
capacity will be operated out of 30 Aerators and resulting induction of oxygen (1.8 Kg/Kw/Hr)
will reduce the BOD Load by further 75% HRT in FAL is 24 Hours. Area of FAL – 13.50
Hectares. Sewage is then led to Polishing Pond (Area = 9.0 Hectares) with 3 baffle walls to
increase the length of flow with a HRT of 12 Hours, where any remaining suspended solids are
removed. Disinfection using chlorine is done before discharging the treated effluent to river
Musi.
