Structure /Building Status Comments / Remarks NOTE

1. Inlet Works
1.1 Attend to concrete finishing in general; On going To be completed next week CJI call for inspection
1.2 Provide silt trap at the head of the works see comment It was discussed and approved in our final detailed design report that silt
trap is not recommended for our project, by reasons:
Silt is in suspension in wastewater and like the suspended organics
requires very still
conditions to settle, like primary settling tanks. In other words, if a big
enough facility will be
provided for effective silt removal the organics will also settle, which is
obviously undesirable for
biological treatment purposes.
• Silt can be removed by coagulation like in water treatment, but
organics will be removed
at the same time and with the same undesirable results.
• It is normal practice in wastewater treatment works to not separate
silt, but to keep it in
suspension and remove it together with sludge. In the case of Maun East
WWTW the silt
will go through the inlet works, be kept in suspension together with the
activated sludge
in the biological reactor and secondary settling tanks and will be
removed together with
the waste activated sludge in the sludge thickener.
Note: As discussed under the FOGG Removal Chamber, some silt may
possibly be removed with
the FOG matrix.
In addition, we visited Gallen vally and Moshupa WWTP, none of these
plants have silt trap system.
1.4 Paving under skips must be concrete; see comment Not necessary, the skips currently used are dumpsters (wheelbarrow-
like) that doesn’t need any truck to load it, rather it is being pushed to
the larger skip which is not situated on the inlet work
platform..Dumpster size is (1052L X 812W X 550H)mm
