Abstract
Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) are recognized as the solution to domestic and industrial wastewater treatment in developing countries. These are cheap, easy to construct and do not require high skilled labor. This paper describes the performance evaluation of the STP located at Jaypee University of Engineering & Technology (JUET) campus, Guna (MP), India. It includes testing of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygendemand (COD), total dissolved solids (TDS),total suspended solids (TSS) and pH. Samples are collected and analyzed over eight months at five different sampling points i.e., inlet, and effluents of aeration, equalization, pressure filter and outlet. The BOD, COD, TDS, and TSS average removal efficiency were observed to be 57%, 68%, 12% and 40.43% respectively. The treated effluent values were below the tolerance limitsspecified by Bureau of Indian Standards for sewage effluent discharged into surface water sources and public sewers. The results demonstrated that STP is working very efficiently and contributing to clean and healthy environment of the university campus.
