ORGANIC FERTILISER

In order to return nutrients to the soil that have been lost in the harvest, it needs to be fertilised , and this should be done with organic fertilisers,as opposed to artifical fertilisers,which are supplementary.


Organic fertiliser contains living creatures ( microorganisms) that break down the components of the soil and make them accessible to the plant.Organic fertilizer also affects the maintenance of temperature levels in the soil by absorbing and accumulating solar radiation,which ensures that the soil warms up better and earlier, and crops can be sown earlier.

Organic fertiliser makes the soil looser,creating space for the air necessary for soil microorganisms to work.Loose soil absorbs and retains moisture better,which is important in areas with little rainfall.

Organic fertiliser as an end product of the biogas plant has many positive qualities compared to the liquid and solid manure form in which it entered the plant.
  • The intensity of unpleasant smells is reduced by as much as 90%
  • During the production of biogas, the pH-value of the fertiliser is increased, which     improves plant resistance to it and reduces acid damage
  • During the production of biogas, the fertilizer becomes more liquid and so is more easily distributed and penetrates the soil better
  • Because storage is in enclosed space, nutrients from the fertiliser are not lost

Types of Wastewater Treatment Process : ETP,STP and CETP

Some of the major important types of wastewater treatment process are as follows : 1. Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) 2. Sewage Treatment Plants (STP) 3. Common and Combined Effluent Treatment Plants (CETP). It is estimated that every year 1.8 million people die due to suffering from waterborne diseases.A large part of these deaths can be indirectly attributed to improper sanitation. Wastewater treatment is an important initiative which has to be taken more seriously for the betterment of the society and our future.Wastewater treatment is a process, wherein the contaminants are removed from wastewater as well as household sewage,to produce waste stream or solid waste suitable for discharge or reuse.Wastewater treatment methods are categorized into three sub-divisions,physical,chemical and biological. 1.Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP): Effluent Treatment Plants or (ETPs) are used by leading companies in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry to purify water ...

Thickening Process of Sludge In Waste Water Treatment

WHAT IS SLUDGE FROM WATER TREATMENT? Generally, it contains biosolids removed from liquid sewage. Sludge thickening is important because it is the process used in wastewater treatment centers to increase the solids concentration and decrease the free water. This step minimizes the load on the downstream processes,such as sludge dewatering and digestion. There's more to this process of course , and this article highlights how sludge thickening works and its general impact, as well as effective groundwater treatment solutions. HOW SLUDGE THICKENING WORKS? There are various processes used in sludge thickening.Each depends on the downstream process, the size of the wastewater plant, and the physical limitations associated with it. Gravity thickening involves using specially designed circular tanks that concentrate thin sludges to a more-dense sludge product.The limitation of this form of clarification water treatment is that it works mostly for the excess wat...

Why is water becoming dark black in an aeration tank in a wastewater treatment plant ?

They are facing a problem as the wastewater getting black color after aeration and the sludge is not settling in the settling tank thereafter.Also there is a huge odour occurred in the aeration tank now. What will be the reason for this and what will be the solution ? Recommendation  It means you have increased the organic load to your aeration tank as a result there is shortage of oxygen in the aeration tank. This can be checked by measuring DO in the aeration tank and should be about 1.5 to 2 mg/l. A) Please check for malfunctioning of Aeration system fouled membranes etc. B) You can improve the situation by cutting down load to the aeration tank by reducing the flow or the inlet BOD concentration or by adding more air to the aeration tank. C) Ensure that you are not dumping some chemical like food preservative,detergent,oil or off spec product in the waste water system as this can increase the ETP load. It will take  about 4 to 8 hours to restore, if you bal...
