Abstract

The chapter presents case studies on the performance of sewage treatment plants from four locations in India, viz., New Delhi, Pune, Nashik and Hyderabad. The various performance attributes, including technical (BOD and COD removal, bacteriological concentration of treated water, dissolved oxygen and pH), managerial (staff, water quality monitoring) and economic (capital and O&M costs per cubic metre of water treated) aspects are analyzed and discussed. The factors influencing plant operating efficiency are also briefly discussed.

The Mula-Mutha is one of the 302 polluted river stretches of the country identified by the CPCB. The major reasons for pollution of Mula-Mutha are discharge of untreated domestic wastewater into the river due to inadequate sewerage system (including pumping stations) and sewage treatment capacity in the town, as well as open defecation on the river banks.
