I. Technology & Design a) Treatment Philosophy: Raw sewage after primary treatment comprising of Bar screen and Grit chamber is taken by gravity into the C-Tech Basins. These C-Tech basins work in sequence and the influent flow is distributed using Automatic Gates provided in the Inlet Chamber of C-Tech basins. The C-Tech basins are equipped with air blowers, diffusers, Return Activated Sludge (RAS) pumps, Surplus Activated Sludge (SAS) pumps, Decanters, Auto valves, PLC etc. All cycles will be automatically controlled using PLC.
Excess sludge at a consistency level of approx 0.8% will be pumped intermittently from SAS pump. The sludge is taken for dewatering. The treated effluent from the C-Tech Basins will be collected in the Chlorination tank where it is chlorinated before being discharged. b) Process Chemistry: Removal of Organics The raw sewage free from debris and grit shall be taken up for Biological treatment for the removal of organics, nitrogen and phosphorus. The activated sludge bio system is designed using Cyclic Activated Sludge Technology which operates on extended aeration activated sludge principle for the reduction of carbonaceous BOD, Nitrification, Denitrification as well as phosphorous removal, using energy efficient fine bubble membrane diffused aeration system, with automatic control of oxygen uptake rate, resulting in 20 – 30% power savings. The practice of manipulating activated sludge reaction environments to obtain maximum nitrogen and phosphorous removal has been optimized, using cyclic activated sludge technology, by co-current nitrification denitrification mechanism. In its simplest form, the sequences of fill, aeration, settle and decant are consecutively and continuously operated all in the same tank, allowing up to 30-40% space saving. No secondary clarifier system is required to concentrate the sludge in the reactor. The return sludge is recycled and the surplus sludge is wasted from the C-Tech basin itself. The system makes use of the variable volume treatment in combination with a biological Selector and operated in a fed-batch reactor mode. The complete biological operation is divided into cycles. A basic cycle comprises: •
Fill – Aeration
•
Settlement
•
Decanting
Signature of applicant with seal
…16…
These phases in a sequence constitute a cycle, which is then repeated. During the period of a cycle, the liquid volume inside the Reactor increases from a set operating bottom water level. During the Fill- Aeration sequence mixed liquor from the aeration zone is recycled into the Selector. Aeration ends at a predetermined period of the cycle to allow the biomass to flocculate and settle under quiescent conditions. After a specific settling period, the treated supernatant is decanted, using a moving weir Decanter. The liquid level in the Reactor is so returned to the bottom water level after which the cycle is repeated. Solids are wasted from the Reactor during the decanting phase. The system selected is capable of achieving the following: i) Anoxic denitrification of nitrates in the Biological Selector zone of C-Tech (Anoxic Zone) using incoming wastewater ii) Bio-degradation of organics including phenol present in the wastewater by Extended Aeration Process iii) Oxidation of sulphides in the wastewater iv) Co-current nitrification and denitrification of ammoniacal nitrogen in the aeration zone of C-Tech basin. v) Removal of phosphorous Denitrification The wastewater enters the Selector zone in the front end of the C-Tech, where anoxic conditions are maintained. Part of the treated wastewater along with return sludge from the aeration basin is recycled here, using RAS Pumps. With the incorporation of biological Selector there is no need for an Anoxic – Mixing sequence and is therefore replaced by a simple Fill – Aeration sequence. As the microorganisms meet high BOD, low DO condition in the Selector zone, natural selection of phosphate accumulating microorganisms and floc-forming microorganisms takes place. This is very effective in containing all of the known low F/M bulking microorganisms and eliminates the problems of bulking and surface foaming. Also, due to the anoxic conditions in the Selector zone, denitrification and phosphorous removal occurs by co-current nitrification & Denitrification. Complete nitrification and denitrification pathways take place with nitrification taking place external to the activated sludge flocs and denitrification taking place within the interior of the flocs. This denitrification pathway is not bound to the absence of dissolved oxygen in the liquid phase but requires diffusion of nitrate into the anoxic parts of the floc with a probable use of stored intracellular carbon or adsorbed organic carbon for denitrification. During anaerobic conditions, all phosphorous that is released to the liquid phase is totally contained within the bio solids layer.
Signature of applicant with seal
…17…
Biological denitrification in the Selector zone by recycling of mixed liquor from aeration zone requires nitrification of all ammoniacal nitrogen in the incoming wastewater in the aeration zone. This requirement of plant design is met by operating the C-tech under Extended Aeration Process with higher θc values, which ensure co-current nitrification and denitrification in the aeration zone. Denitrification releases nitrogen which escapes as an inert gas to the atmospheres, while the oxygen released stays dissolved in the liquid and thus reduces the oxygen input needed for the aeration. The process of denitrification of nitrates is represented as: NO3- + BOD Æ N2 + CO2 + H2O + OH- + cells. Carbonaceous BOD removal The aeration zone of C-Tech is provided with diffused aeration to oxidize the organic matter including phenol, by Extended Aeration Process. An extended aeration activated sludge process operates in the endogenous respiration phase of the growth curve where the microorganisms are forced to metabolize their own protoplasm without replacement, since the concentration of food available is at a minimum. During this phase, the nutrients remaining in the dead cells diffuse out to furnish the remaining cells with food. This system has been developed for application where minimum solids production is desirable. Less solids production is achieved by using a larger fraction of the entering organic material for energy rather than for synthesis. This means that more oxygen will be consumed per unit mass of organic material removed. The activated sludge process is capable of converting most organic wastes to more stable inorganic forms or to cellular mass. In this process, the soluble and colloidal organic material is metabolized by a diverse group of microorganisms to carbon dioxide and water. At the same time, a sizeable fraction of incoming organic matter is converted to cellular mass that can be separated from the effluent by settling. Activated sludge comprises a mixed microbial culture wherein the bacteria are responsible for oxidizing the organic matter, while protozoa consume the dispersed un-flocculated bacteria and rotifers consume the unsettled small bio-flocs in the treated wastewater, performing the role of effluent polishers. The utilization of substrate by a bacterial cell can be described as a three-step process: i) The substrate molecule contacts the cell wall. ii) The substrate molecule is transported into the cell iii) Metabolism of the substrate molecule by the cell

However, as the bacteria require the molecule in the soluble form, colloidal, spherically incompatible molecules, which cannot be readily biodegradable, have to be first adsorbed to the cell surface and then broken down or transformed externally to transportable fractions by exo-enzymes or wall-bounded enzymes. The organic matter will be utilized by the bacteria resulting in cell synthesis and energy for maintenance. The following reactions best describe the organic utilization by the aerobic bacteria: i) Oxidation COHNS + O2 + Bacteria Æ CO2 + NH3 + other End Products + Energy ii) Synthesis COHNS + O2 + Bacteria Æ C5H7O2N (New Bacterial Cell) iii) Endogenous Respiration C5H7O2N + 5O2 Æ 5CO2 + NH3 + 2H2O + Energy Nutrients available in the wastewater or from external source of supplements cater to the nutrient requirements of the aerobic microorganisms and to enhance the activity of the aerobic microbes. In addition to the nutrient requirements, the aerobic microbes require oxygen to sustain their microbial activity. Oxygen also functions as a terminal electron acceptor in the energy metabolism of the aerobic heterotrophic organisms indigenous to the activated sludge process. In other words a portion of the organic material removed is oxidized to provide energy for the maintenance function and the synthesis function.

Nitrification Any oxidation must be coupled with reduction, and oxygen satisfies this requirement in the aerobic microorganisms. Extended Aeration system, with high θc values, ensures uniform nitrification performance. Nitrification results from the oxidation of ammonia present in the sewage by Nitrosomanas to nitrite and the subsequent oxidation of the nitrite to nitrate by Nitrobacter. The nitrifying organisms are strict aerobic autotrophes and use carbon source present in the sewage, in the presence of oxygen, maintained at 2 mg/l in the C-Tech to avoid oxygen limitation. The nitrification of ammonia can be represented as given below: NITROSOMONAS
2 NH4+ + 3O2
2 NO2- + O2
2NO2- + 2 H2O + 4 H+ + New Cells
NITROBACTOR
2NO3- + New Cells
The diffused aeration system is sized so that sufficient oxygen is provided for carbonaceous treatment, sludge stabilization, nitrification and maintaining the DO at the specified level of 2 mg/l, taking into account the reduction in oxygen demand due to denitrification. The capacity of diffused aeration in each C-Tech basin will be sufficient to ensure good mixing conditions during Fill Aeration phase of the cycle of operation. Phosphorous removal The removal of phosphorous from the wastewater is accomplished by the consumption of P for the cell growth. During anoxic conditions, all phosphorous that is released to the liquid phase is totally contained within the bio solids layer. c) Process Description: The C-TECH system is operated in a batch reactor mode, which eliminates all the inefficiencies of the continuous processes. A batch reactor is a perfect reactor, which ensures 100% treatment. Six modules are provided to ensure continuous treatment. The complete process takes place in a single reactor, within which all biological treatment steps take place sequentially. No additional settling unit / secondary clarifier are required The complete biological operation is divided into cycles. Each cycle is of 3 – 5 hrs duration (3 hours as design basis); during which all treatment steps take place.

Explanation of cyclic operation: A basic cycle comprises: • Fill-Aeration
(F/A)
• Settlement
(S)
• Decanting
(D)
These phases in a sequence constitute a cycle, which is then repeated. A Typical Cycle During the period of a cycle, the liquid is filled in the C Tech Basin up to a set operating water level. Aeration Blowers are started for aeration of the effluent. After the aeration cycle, the biomass settles under perfect settling conditions. Once Settled the supernatant is removed from the top using a DECANTER. Solids are wasted from the tanks during the decanting phase. These phases in a sequence constitute a cycle, which is then repeated.

PLC unit for complete automatic cycle control and operation
Reduces manpower cost. Complete operation can be hooked to central control desk d)
Biological SELECTOR zone The incorporation of a biological SELECTOR in the front end of the C-TECH- Systems distinguishes it from all other technologies. The raw effluent enters the SELECTOR zone, where ANOXIC MIX conditions are maintained. Part of the treated effluent along with return sludge from the aeration basin is recycled in here, using RAS pumps. As the microorganisms meet high BOD, low DO condition in the SELECTOR, natural selection of predominantly floc-forming microorganisms takes place. This is very effective in containing all of the known low F/M bulking microorganisms, eliminates problems of bulking and sludge foaming. This process ensures excellent settling characteristics of the bio sludge. SVI of treated effluent of less than 120 is achieved in all seasons. Also due to the anoxic conditions in the SELECTOR zone, De nitrification and phosphorous removal occurs in case the Ammonical nitrogen and phosphorous levels are high in the effluent. The figure below shows the experience with SVI developments in parallel operations with a wastewater that traditionally favours sludge

e)
Dissolved Oxygen Control The C Tech process uses measurement of dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the basin to enhance treatment efficiency and optimise power consumption. The DO concentration in the basin is continuously monitored using a DO sensor. Once DO level is measured in the basins, a variable frequency drive automatically alters the aeration blower rpm to maintain desired DO levels in the basin. This methodology provides a true in-basin method for the efficient use of energy.
f) `
Decanter Assembly The clean supernatant is removed from the basin using a Decanter assembly complete in stainless steel construction. During decanting there is no inflow to the basin. The moving weir DECANTER is motor driven and travels slowly from its “park” position to a designated bottom water level. Once the Decanting phase sets in, the decanter automatically lowers to the required bottom level. Variable frequency drives are provided to control the rate of movement of the Decanters. After the required level of supernatant is removed the Decanter is returned to its “park” position through reversal of the drive. The basin is now ready for the next cycle to begin.

Operational Simplicity - Fully PLC based intelligent control The complete CTech plant operation is controlled automatically thro a PLC system, which is a major factor in reducing operating costs. This also prevents mal operation of the various set process parameters within the plant. All key functions like, RAS, sludge wasting, aeration intensity, cycle time control, decanting rate etc are automatically controlled as well as data logged. Complete historical records of plant operation are available on touch of a button.
