Phase II - Viva Voice
Presented By
GOKUL.D (CE1320)
Under the Guidance of Dr. M.A.SIVASANKARAN, Professor
Department of Civil Engineering Pondicherry Engineering College
Puducherry – 605 014.
INTRODUCTION
• Industrial wastewaters are one of the major sources
of pollution.
• In India, approximately 13500 MLD of
wastewaters is generated by industries. (CPCB
ENVIS 2014)
• Only 60% of W/W is treated.
• It is a major concern for environment.
PERSONAL CARE PRODUCT INDUSTRY
• Personal care product industries comes under FMCG
industry.
• There are 20 top personal care products manufacturers
in India.
• Hindustan Unilever Limited is the largest personal care
product industry in India.
• HUL has a share of about 54% in personal care product
category.
SEGMENTAL BREAK-UP OF PERSONAL CARE MARKET
PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS SCENARIO IN INDIA
• Total market 23 million tons in volume.
• 7 million tons market for bathing soaps.
• 16 million tones market detergents soaps & bars.
• 30% detergent cakes.
• 70% detergent powder.
WASTEWATER GENERATION BY PCP’S INDUSTRY
• Personal care product industries contributes
around 8% to the total industrial wastewater
generation in India.
• Total wastewater generated by PCP’s industries in
India is around 1080 MLD. ( CPCB ENVIS 2014)
NEED FOR THE STUDY
• Presently the wastewater from a personal care
products industry is being treated by conventional
aerobic biological method.
• The process involves coagulation, sedimentation ,
aeration(ASP) and secondary settling tank.
• This process takes more time and energy to treat
the wastewater.
• Hence in order to economize the time and energy,
an attempt is planned to treat by Fenton process.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
• To study the characteristics of the wastewater
from personal care products industry.
• To study the existing treatment process and
effluent characteristics from the treatment plant.
• An attempt to modify the present process with
Fenton process.
• Comparison of the treatment efficiency and costs.

COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS
• The total operating cost of the conventional Effluent
treatment plant for personal care products industry is
considered to be around Rs. 24,00,000 annually.
• At present, from the research findings of this project
( Fenton Process) is proposed the operating cost of the
Effluent treatment plant for personal care products
industry is considered to be around Rs. 16,00,000
annually.
• As said above, the Fenton process required additional
facilitation to treat the effluent with maximal
efficiency in a boundary of minimal operating cost as
it required from the industry, we suggest the
combined Fenton and Activated Sludge Process for
PCP’s treatment.
• As it modified, the operating cost of combined
Fenton and Activated Sludge Process is around
Rs 14,50,000 annually.
• It is concluded and suggested from the findings of
this project that the cost of the conventional treatment
process is more when compared with the Fenton
Process.
CONCLUSIONS
• In first phase of work a batch study was conducted.
• For maximum COD removal efficiency the optimum
conditions are pH 3.5 , Fenton’s ratio 1:5 (1 gm of
Fe2+ : 5 ml of H2O2) and 60 mins of treatment time.
• Max COD removal efficiency is 93.9%.
• The increase in TDS level in batch mode process is
identified and it is a drawback in this system.
• To overcome the above drawback in the Second
Phase of work, without altering the influent pH 5,
Fenton process was carried out and the COD removal
removal efficiency was found to be around 60%.
• At the request of the industry, we carried out the
combined Fenton and Activated sludge Process (ASP)
at the influent pH 5 and COD removal efficiency was
calculated.
• The overall COD removal efficiency of the combined
treatment process was found to be around 98%
• The operating costs of the proposed treatment process
is less when compared to the existing treatment
process by 40%.
