Sewage treatments actually
mean that improve or upgrade the quality of a wastewater by applying many tools
and technologies. Usually sewage treatment will includes storing sewage in a
central, segregated location and subjecting the sewage to different treatment
processes. Most wastewater treatment processes are continuous flow, some
operations, like vacuum filtration, storage of sludge, the addition of
chemicals, filtration and elimination or disposal of the treated sludge. All
these techniques are routinely handled as periodic batch operations.
Sewage treatment includes physical,
chemical and biological methods. All these methods are used in Mumbai
flats for sewage treatment.
Physical
methods strictly
include physical phenomena for improving or treating the wastewater.
Chemical methods consist of
chemical reaction or reactions for enhancing the water quality. Chlorination is
the most commonly used chemical process for sewage treatment. Chlorine, a
strong oxidizing chemical, is used to kill bacteria and to slow down the rate
of decomposition of the wastewater. Bacterial kill is achieved when vital
biological processes are affected by the chlorine.
Biological
methods use
microorganisms, mostly bacteria, in the biochemical decomposition of sewage to
stable end products. According to the availability of dissolved oxygen,
biological method divided into aerobic and anaerobic methods.
