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

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...

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 ...

The Environmental Impact Of An Incinerator

An incinerator is an industrial tool used in the treatment of munincipal-solid waste which uses a process of waste combustion to create electricity. This process is also known as waste-to-energy, but it is not without its hazards. Although the process of controlled combustion of waste is beneficial in that it reduces the amount of waste that ends up in a landfill, there are numerous environmental implications of using an incinerator to dispose of waste. These include the release of airborne toxins from burning plastics and metals, the contamination of food and water in the area the incinerator is in use and it inadvertently hinders the prevention of waste that could otherwise reduce the amount of toxic materials combusted for fuel. Waste-to-Energy : Environmental Impact In theory, waste-to-energy is a beneficial method for the production of electricity that does not require fossil fuels. However, the process is rife with negative externalities. In other words, the process has ...
