Design Basis of Treatment plant – MBBR (Moving Bed Bio Reactor)

Preliminary Treatment:

The treatment will include the following unit / equipment;

Screen Chamber

Oil & Grease Trap

Raw Sewage Collection Tank

Raw Sewage Transfer pumps

All the sewage generated will gravitate through Bar Screen. The Bar screen will take care of any

floatable matter, which will be manually scraped out and collected in drums. Bar screen will

comprise of SS plate type screen for removing floatable matter. From the bar screen it will then

pass on to the Oil & Grease Trap for removal of free floating oil. The oil will be scrapped and

collected in drums to be disposed as per statutory norms. The sewage will be collected in raw

collection tank. Uniform mixing is achieved by providing aeration grid (air sparing) in the

collection tank. After completion of mixing, the sewage will be pumped at a uniform rate by

sewage transfer pumps to Biological Treatment.

Biological Treatment (Secondary Treatment):

This will include the following;

MBBR Bioreactor

Secondary Clarifier

Sludge Dewatering System-(Filter press)

The process will be of activated sludge extended aeration biological process of Moving Bed Bio

Reactor (MBBR) type. The MBBR process will be an aerobic system having two biological

growth process- attached growth and suspended growth. The pretreated sewage from raw

sewage collection tank will be pumped into MBBR where support media will provide more

surface area for Biological growth. Oxygen will be added for biological growth through tubular

diffusers. The effluent will be uniformly pumped to MBBR Reactor to biologically degrade the

organic matter. The oxygen required for the bacterial growth will be supplied through Diffuser

systems. The system envisages better oxygen transfer because of fine bubbles and increased

contact with the sewage.

The overflow from MBBR Reactor will gravitate to the Secondary clarifier. The arrested sludge

will be pumped back to the Aeration tank to maintain the bacterial concentration in the tank and

excess sludge will be sent to the Sludge collection pit and shall be dewatered using a Filter

press. The filtrate will be taken to the Raw Sewage Collection Tank. The dried sludge can be

used as manure.

Tertiary Treatment:

The treatment will include the following unit / equipment;

Filter feed tank

Pressure Sand Filter (PSF)

Activated Carbon Filter (ACF)

Ozonation System

The clear supernatant from the Secondary clarifier will be collected in a Filter feed tank this tank

will be provided with level switch for unmanned operations. The treated sewage will be pumped

to PSF followed by ACF. After ACF treated sewage will be passed through Ozonation System

for disinfection. After Ozonation treated sewage will be collected in Treated Water Tank.

Treated sewage from Treated Water Tank can be used for secondary requirement

3. VEGETATION

3.1 Is there any threat of the project to the biodiversity? (Give a description of the local

ecosystem with its unique features, if any)

There is no threat to local biodiversity. This is vacant piece of land. Some tree cutting is

involved in execution of the project. About 1800-2000 Nos. of trees will be affected.

Possibilities will be explored to maintain maximum no. of trees as in R.G. area.

If not possible to maintain the trees as in R.G. Area they will be replanted in various gardens of

Nagpur Municipal Corporation in Nagpur City and the proposed R.G. & Green area of the

project. Further, there are no National parks and Sanctuaries located in the study area.

3.2 Will the construction involve extensive clearing or modification of vegetation? (Provide

a detailed account of the trees & vegetation affected by the project)

The project site is a piece of vacant land having very sparse vegetative cover. Further, the plant

species around the site are local tree species and no rare or endangered tree species are found in


13

the site hence unlikely to be affected. . Some tree cutting is involved in execution of the project.

About 1800-2000 Nos. of trees will be affected. Possibilities will be explored to maintain

maximum no. of trees as in R.G. area.

If not possible to maintain the trees as in R.G. Area they will be replanted in various gardens of

Nagpur Municipal Corporation in Nagpur City and the proposed R.G. & Green area of the

project. Any loss of vegetation in the project site will be compensated through plantation and

landscaping.

3.3 What are the measures proposed to be taken to minimize the likely impacts on

important site features (Give details of proposal for tree plantation, landscaping, creation

of water bodies etc. along with a layout plan to an appropriate scale)

Any loss in vegetation will be compensated by plantation of trees adopting the following

measures. The landscape of project site has been planned to provide a clean, healthy and

beautiful green environment for the people. Within the proposed project site, landscape/ green

areas will be developed to achieve a blend between modern building and various species of

plants to create a clean, healthy and aesthetic environment that provides a visual treat and

relaxation to the occupants of these buildings. Within these green areas walking tracks,

fountains, etc. will be developed all through the building.

A combination of evergreen and ornamental flowering trees, palms, shrubs and ground covers

will be planted along the roadsides and in open spaces within the project complex. The planting

arrangement should be based on optimal use of available land and quantum of irrigation water

and treated wastewater. It is recommended that tree plantation (large size species) should be

undertaken at the time of preparation of the site so that they would grow to considerable size by

the time of commissioning of the proposed project. The landscape plan is shown in the project

site layout plan given as below and the list of plant species suggested for plantation in the

proposed project is presented as below.

R. G. Area: 45938.911 Sq.mt.

generate fugitive dust that will affect the air quality of the surrounding area of the project site.

To minimize such impacts following measures has been proposed:

Ready Mix concrete will be used.

All construction material will be covered by tarpaulin during transportation and will be kept at

covered storage yard.

Water sprinkling will be done for dust suppression.

To minimize the occupational health hazard, proper personal protective gears i.e. mask will be

provided to the workers who are engaged in dust generation activity

Mitigation Measures for Noise Pollution during Construction Stage

During construction stage, expected noise levels will be in the range of (80-85dBA), which will

decrease with increase in distance. Administrative as well as engineering control of noise will be

implemented. Isolation of noise generation sources and temporal differentiation of noise

generating activities will ensure minimum noise at receiver’s end.

All the construction activities will be carried out during the daytime. To prevent any

occupational health hazard, ear-muff / ear plug will be given to the workers working around or

operating plant and machinery emitting high noise levels. Use of such plant or machinery will be

strictly prohibited during night. Careful planning of machinery operation and scheduling of

operations will be done to minimise such impact.
