Process in place to treat waste water

2023

In 2023, Shoolini University has advanced its commitment to wastewater treatment and environmental sustainability through its upgraded Sewage Treatment Plant (STP). Following the successes of previous years, the STP now has an impressive capacity of 550 KLD to meet the university’s growing water needs responsibly.

The 2023 wastewater treatment process incorporates core components with enhanced technologies for increased efficiency and sustainability. The STP uses a blend of biological treatment and advanced activated carbon-based treatment technology to ensure treated water meets strict quality standards.

In the biological treatment phase, the Activated Sludge Process is applied, utilizing microorganisms in a bioreactor to break down contaminants and produce nutrient-rich sludge for eco-friendly applications. The tertiary treatment phase further purifies the effluent from the bioreactor using advanced pressure filters with sand and activated carbon, achieving high purity levels. Finally, sodium hypochlorite disinfection guarantees the removal of any remaining bacteria.

The treated water from the upgraded STP supports Shoolini’s sustainable practices, including irrigation of horticulture crops, maintenance of the university's scenic gardens, and various construction projects.

2021 - 2022

In 2022, Shoolini University continued to make significant strides in wastewater treatment through its Sewage Treatment Plant (STP). Building upon the successes of the previous years, the University's commitment to environmental sustainability and responsible water management remained unwavering. In 2022, the STP was further upgraded, now boasting an impressive capacity of 550 KLD (Kiloliters per Day). This substantial increase in capacity was driven by a desire to meet the growing demands of the University while prioritizing the responsible use of water resources.

The wastewater treatment process in 2022 retained its core components while also introducing enhanced technologies for even more efficient and sustainable operations. STP continued to employ a combination of biological treatment and advanced activated carbon-based treatment technology, ensuring that the treated water met stringent quality standards.

Biological treatment was enhanced through the utilization of the Activated Sludge Process, which harnessed the power of microorganisms within a bioreactor to break down and purify the used water. This process not only effectively removed contaminants but also generated nutrient-enriched sludge, which could be further utilized in various eco-friendly applications.

In the tertiary treatment stage, the effluent from the bioreactor, which might still contain dissolved organic matter, was subjected to a secondary treatment that utilized state-of-the-art pressure filters with sand and activated carbon. This step ensured that the water reached an exceptionally high level of purity. As a final measure, the treated water was thoroughly disinfected using sodium hypochlorite, guaranteeing the complete removal of any remaining bacteria.

The treated water from the upgraded STP continued to play a crucial role in the University's sustamable practices. It was used for a range of purposes, including irrigation in horticulture crops, nourishing the University's picturesque gardens, and supporting various construction projects. This comprehensive approach to wastewater management in 2022 reflected Shoolin University's ongoing commitment to environmental conservation and efficient resource utilization The University's continued dedication to improving its wastewater treatment infrastructure and processes exemplifies its forward-thinking approach to sustainability and responsible water management.
