Description
-
The Faecal Sludge Treatment Plant (FSTP) in Periyanaicken Palayam aims to address sanitation needs for the local population of 53,000 by handling up to 30,000 liters of septage daily from unsewered households. The process includes a Septage Receiving Station for initial screening and grit settling, followed by a storage tank for homogenization and sludge settling. Dewatering units treat the sludge for composting, while a Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) processes the liquid waste through aerobic and anoxic treatment stages. Final water treatment involves pressure sand filters, activated carbon filters, and UV disinfection before storage for reuse.
