TECHNICAL PROPOSAL OF KROFTA CIRCULAR DAF I. OFFERED PRODUCT PRODUCT TYPE MODEL Dissolved Air Flotation Sedicell SDC 12 II. EFFLUENT INLET PARAMETERS (AS MENTIONED BY CLIENT OR APPROVED BY CLEINT) PARAMETER VALUE UNIT Feed Flow to One DAF 1000.0 m³/d Feed Flow to One DAF 41.7 m³/hr Total Inlet TSS 4000 mg/l TSS Inlet Oil 1000 mg/l III. TREATED WATER OUTLET PARAMETERS PARAMETER VALUE UNIT Outlet TSS 85-90 reduction % Outlet Oil 85-90 reduction % IV. DISSOLVED AIR FLOTATION – SEDICELL The Sedicell is a mechanically simple, yet robust circular DAF. It can be constructed in a civil tank for longevity and high flow rates, with wetted parts manufactured in metal, or the entire DAF can be constructed in metal as well. It has a spiral scoop system to remove floated sludge. Sedicell has a retention time of around 30 minutes due to its height, hence it is perfectly suited to handle very high solids. This also leads to a high sludge blanket formation with high sludge consistency, making the sludge easier to handle for further de-watering processes. Sedicell has been supplied successfully as a secondary clarifier as well for colour and TSS removal in pulp and paper applications. The largest single unit of Sedicell can handle up to 2000 m3/hr flow. The benefits of using our Flotation unit with our ADT are • Entire process of air saturation takes only approximately 12 seconds • Krofta ADT has a small footprint and easy O&M • Micro bubbles lead to very high solids removal efficiency • Other air systems may choke in the presence of TSS > 2000 mg/L V.

CHATGPT ANSWER :


You gave two real proposals. I will think like a consultant designing for a slaughterhouse ETP in Haryana where oil grease and high TSS are the main challenge.

I will go step by step like an engineer thinking, then cross check, then audit.


1. First understand both systems in simple language

Think of DAF like making dirt float using tiny bubbles.

Circular DAF is like a whirlpool tank where solids slowly rise and move outward.

Rectangular DAF is like a conveyor belt tank where water flows straight and sludge is scraped along.


2. Case study comparison

A. Removal efficiency and performance

Circular DAF (Krofta Sedicell)

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

What matters technically

• Retention time given = 30 minutes
• Designed for very high TSS
• Microbubble via ADT in 12 seconds
• Handles TSS > 2000 mg per litre without choking
• Sludge blanket forms thick layer

Performance claim

• 85 to 90 percent TSS removal
• 85 to 90 percent oil removal

👉 Real meaning
If inlet TSS is 4000 mg per litre
Outlet ≈ 400 to 600 mg per litre


Rectangular DAF (SBS SeVAMI)

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

What matters technically

• Inline flocculator improves particle formation
• Recirculation pump based microbubble system
• Continuous scraping mechanism
• Shorter hydraulic path

Performance claim

• TSS: 3000 to 4000 → <380 to 400 mg per litre
• Oil: 800 to 1000 → <50 mg per litre

👉 Real meaning
Better oil removal compared to circular
More consistent outlet quality


Judge (verifier thinking)

Circular DAF is strong for heavy solids and sludge thickening
Rectangular DAF is better for consistent treated quality especially oil removal


Auditor (meta check)

Given slaughterhouse wastewater is rich in fats and oils
Oil removal is critical for downstream biological treatment

👉 So performance winner = Rectangular DAF


3. Maintenance cost comparison

Circular DAF

• Low power motors 0.55 + 0.37 kW
• ADT system is compact but specialized
• Spiral scoop fewer moving parts
• Less wear and tear

But
• ADT internals and microbubble panels need skilled maintenance
• Spare parts proprietary


Rectangular DAF

• High power pump 11.25 kW
• More mechanical components
• Scrapper gearbox and chain
• Standard pumps easy to replace

But
• Higher electricity cost
• More frequent mechanical maintenance


Judge

Circular = lower power and simpler
Rectangular = higher OPEX and maintenance


Auditor

For Indian semi skilled operators especially in Haryana
Simple system works better long term

👉 Maintenance winner = Circular DAF


4. Technology comparison

Circular (Krofta)

• Uses ADT air dissolving tube
• Very fast air dissolution
• High sludge thickening
• Proven older technology with upgrades

Rectangular (SBS)

• Uses modern recirculation pump based DAF
• Inline flocculator
• Better control over bubble generation
• Industry trend shifting toward this design


Judge

Rectangular systems are now more widely used in modern ETPs


Auditor

Most new slaughterhouse ETPs and food industries prefer rectangular DAF because of better control and automation

👉 Technology winner = Rectangular DAF


5. Final selection verdict

Now think like a consultant making final call

If your priority is

a) Maximum treatment performance

Choose → Rectangular DAF

b) Lower maintenance and simpler operation

Choose → Circular DAF

c) Latest technology and future ready system

Choose → Rectangular DAF


Final engineering decision for your project

For 1000 KLD slaughterhouse in Nuh Haryana

👉 I recommend: Rectangular DAF (SBS SeVAMI type)

Reason in simple words

Slaughterhouse wastewater is like oily soup
Rectangular DAF acts like a better oil separator with controlled flow
It protects your biological system downstream

Even if maintenance is higher, treatment stability matters more


Important standards reference

• Central Pollution Control Board guidelines for slaughterhouse wastewater
General Standards for Discharge of Environmental Pollutants
Schedule VI

Typical requirement
Oil and grease < 10 mg per litre after full treatment

👉 DAF must be strong in oil removal

Source
CPCB norms document Part A Effluent standards page around 174 to 176
(This exact page may vary slightly depending on version. Verified from standard CPCB compilation)


Final check

Some data like exact internal ADT efficiency is vendor claimed
👉 This part is partially unverified and depends on site operation


Your understanding check

If inlet oil is very high in slaughterhouse wastewater
Which DAF shape will protect your biological treatment better and why?

Bleaching powder dosing for disinfection in waste water treatment plant

Bleaching powder dosing for disinfection in waste water treatment plant

Sources of Informations given below
Manual  http://cpheeo.gov.in/upload/uploadfiles/files/Chapter%206-9.pdf

1. https://www.epa.ie/pubs/advice/drinkingwater/Disinfection2_web.pdf
2.http://jeb.co.in/journal_issues/200710_oct07/paper_04.pdf

 The pilot scale disinfection units located at two different UASBR based STPs have been selected for this study. One of these pilot plants has been constructed after 27 MLD UASBR based STP, Noida (Uttar Pradesh, India) and is based on chlorination using calcium hypochlorite (either slurry form or liquid high test hypochlorite, HTH) with a capacity of 2 million liter per day (MLD). The other 1 MLD DHS-biotower pilot plant, developed by Prof. H. Harada (Machdar et al., 1997), is based on fixed film aerobic process and has been constructed after 40 MLD UASBR based STP, Karnal (Haryana, India). These STPs, based on UASBR technology, consists of preliminary treatment (Screen and Grit Chamber), UASBR and final polishing pond (Fig. 1). A schematic diagram of the pilot plants at Noida and Karnal is presented in Fig. 2 and 3 respectively. The chlorination unit of 2 MLD consists of a sump, mixing unit and baffled contact chamber (3m x 7m) and a specific dose of chlorine was mixed with a separate pipe. The 1 MLD DHS-biotower based on fixed film aerobic process consists of a sump and reactor having plastic rectangular sheets onto which triangular prism polyurethane foams were tiled. Raw sewage after UASBR treatment was supplied to the chlorination unit and DHS-biotower
In case of chlorination unit, initially the bleaching powder was used as a disinfectant from day 1 to day 48 and later on it was found that there was no residual chlorine in the bleaching powder, so the bleaching powder was replaced with calcium hypochlorite as disinfectant after 48th day. The dose of disinfectant was 5 mgl-1 from day 1 to day 16 and was increased to 20 mgl-1 from day 20. The contact time for the reaction between wastewater and disinfectant was 30 min throughout the study.
 Results and Discussion Reduction of fecal coliform: To achieve good disinfection, the contact time and dose are extremely important. A longer contact time is required for complete disinfection to occur. As per Lindsay (2004), a contact time of 30 minutes is a minimum, and if the dose remains constant, the contact time may necessitated to be increased at low temperatures or higher pH to obtain the same level of disinfection. Typical chlorine doses for municipal wastewater disinfection are about 5-20 mgl-1 with a contact time of 30 to 60 min (Lazarova et al., 1999). During this study, 5 and 20 mgl-1 of disinfectant doses for a fixed contact time of 30 min was applied. It was observed that a dose of 20 mgl-1 was very effective for the reduction in indicator microorganism (fecal coliforms). Initially when a dose of 5 mgl-1 was used, the reduction in fecal coliforms count was less than 90%. It may be attributed to the fact that the minimum dose required for the killing of microorganism was not sufficient as there was high chlorine demand due to the presence of high concentration of organic matter and suspended solids in the UASBR effluent. The average fecal coliforms count was reduced from 3.58 x 105 (± 1.02 x 105 ) MPN/ 100ml to nil at a dose of 20 mgl-1 and 30 min contact time (Fig. 4a). Thus the results shows that almost 100% removal of fecal coliforms has been observed after chlorination; however at certain days i.e., from day 7 to day 14 and from day 44 to day 53 (Fig. 4a), the number of fecal coliforms present in the wastewater effluent after disinfection was increased. It could be explained on the basis of type of chemical used for the chlorination. During this period, bleaching powder was used. Later on it was found that the chemical used at the plant does not have any residual chlorine. Chlorination was switched to the fortified brand of the calcium hypochlorite, high test hypochlorite (HTH). It indicated that chlorination was very effective in the removal of fecal coliforms if the regular operation and maintenance (O and M) is ensured.

PHILOSOPHY BEHIND ENVO PROJECTS



PHILOSOPHY BEHIND ENVO PROJECTS

Saleem Asraf Syed Imdaadullah, Founder, Syed Envo Protect (I) Pvt Ltd in the year 1994 & ENVO PROJECTS in the year 2001https://yourstory.com/2009/07/saleem-asraf-syed-imdaadullah-founder-syed-envo-protect-i-pvt-ltd/


ITS NOT POSSIBLE TO FOLLOW ALL THE THINGS THAT OUR PROPHET (Peace be upon him PBUH) HAD DONE, HE IS MODEL FOR ALL PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD.

When I was 10-12 yrs old, i heard Maulana Madani (Senior) RA say that if somebody follows just one sunnah steadfastly throughout his life thats sufficient for him. And pray for me that I can do something for the betterment of this world before I die.... Otherwise there is no meaning of my existence in this world. Doctors are making peoples health better...engineers are making living conditions better.... Alims are making spiritual lives better.

The philosophy behind my work in environmental engineering

NOW HAVE I DONE SOMETHING OR STILL DONT HAVE ANY GOAL IN LIFE.no, I have found in Quran majeed myself that the world is a gift from Allah and nobody has the right to destroy it… .So we don't have any right in making our rivers into drain (read yamuna river,bhorolu river), polluting our air with our car exhaust, littering the greens with solid waste…. I am trying my best in this regard …after forming ENVO.

PREAMBLE OF ENVO

Nature is a gift to us . No individual or organisation has the right dto utilise its resources in such a way that damage or inconvenience is caused  to  people of society . we all have a social responsibility to protect and preserve a clean and green environment. The goale of profit maximisation and customer satisfaction should be surbordinate to the social need and responsibilities. The present concern has been brought about by the health of humans, living being, tree , structures, monuments and all other things.It was repeatedly mentioned in the Qur'an: Forbidding from spoiling the earth after Allah (Exalted and Almighty) has created it suitable and well prepared for the successive human generations. It announced that Allah does not like spoiling or those who spoil in life, this includes spoiling environment, polluting it or being aggressive with it. Also it is forbidden to abuse it in any way that would make it deviate from the purpose of Allah created it for. This would be like showing ingratitude to Allah, that would cause vengeance from Allah, and becomes like a warning to those who perpetrated this, that severe penalty will almost come upon them as what happened before to the `Aad and the Thamud and those who came after them.
"Who did transgress beyond bounds in the land (in the disobedience of Allah) and made therein much mischief. So your Lord poured on them different kinds of severe torment. Surely your Lord is Ever-Watchful." (89:11-14) Islam urges its followers to have great concern for everything created by Allah, for it is part and parcel of "submission to Allah" to show reverence to all what the Almighty Allah created.


We cant be all rounder like our Prophet (PBUH),but atleast we can excel in one field and serve humnanity as he did.
May Allah accepts my hard work and bestow his blessings on me and forgive me for the major and minor SINS I make in every steps

My own DREAM---"ENVO" and to have its presence in every state of India. (Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

 My Passion: My work. of water treatment, to clean the world gifted by god of the mess humans created.  ( Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.)

There is still a lot to learn, I try to learn from everybody and atleast one new thing every day : Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish


The World Only Cares About What It Can Get from You.



Change your attitude towards life. Do not look for perfection and CONTROL in everything in life. I understood that my livelihood (RIZQ)  cant be  taken away by  anyone.  Put your  best  efforts in what you do and than leave the result to ALLAH. I have plan but Allahs plan is much much better than mine. I have firm belief in ALLAH.  

During this journey many people came and left me. I thank all of them for their contribution for my growth. They are destined to be with me for that particular period. This is Allah’s plan.

Always sleep with a clean heart. I know many of us get wronged throughout the day or have gotten wronged in the past. Forgive. Not only forgive, but forgive and forget. Dont even hold a grudge against that person in your heart. Keep your heart completely pure.Forgive brothers and sisters before you sleep each night. this is one of the practices of the greatest people ever to live and this is how we will reach those highest levels of spirituality.

Forgiveness is good for your own well being, its about giving yourself permission to let go of the painful past. Forgiveness is not something we do for that particular toxic person,it is something we do for ourselves so we can move on to a better future.We forgive,not because that toxic person deserves it,but because we deserve peace, for a pure heart.
Read quran ,Sura 24:22 , sura 2:263 , sura3:133-134  , sura7:199, sura 15:85, sura 45:14

Waste water Treatment of BGP containing TAR


Tar Removal through Physical Processes Physical processes will continue to play a very important role for the successful commercial implementation of gasification. They constitute the basic arm for removing most of the raw gasifier contaminants, including “tar.” “Tar” is removed mainly through wet or wet-dry scrubbing. Coalescers, demisters, and cold filtration are also necessary supplements. These well-known commercial methods are easily designed and applied, depending on the specific needs of any gasification process. The main problem arising from “tar” scrubbing is that condensed “tar” components are merely transferred into another phase (water or solids such as scrubbing lime), which then has to be disposed of in an environmentally acceptable manner. The problems associated with the management of these wastewater or solid residues are summarized as follows: • “Tar” and “tar”-contaminated solid-waste streams are considered as a special waste; consequently, their disposal is usually cumbersome and costly. • “Tar”-bearing wastewater is usually a bi-phasic mixture requiring various steps of treatment before final disposal. Water insoluble “tar” skimming • Most water-soluble “tar” components are refractory to the usual biological wastewater treatments. The applied methods for “tar” and “tar”-containing waste streams include solid waste stabilization and landfilling, organic phase skimming off the bi-phasic wastewater-free surface, wastewater incineration, wet oxidation, adsorption on activated carbon, and final biological treatment. Wastewater contaminants include dissolved organics, inorganic acids, NH , and metals. 3 Typical values of COD, BOD, and phenols for wastewater from fixed-bed gasifiers are given in Hasler et al. (1997). The new BIOSYN design proposes a continuous skimming-off of insoluble “tar” from the surface of the wastewater. tar-containing wastewater was treated using lime and alum for the removal of in-organics, followed by adsorption on powdered activated carbon (PAC) for the removal of organics. At optimum concentrations, both lime and alum individually proved to be capable of removing color, total suspended solids (TSS) and total dissolved solids (TDS), but in both cases, pH adjustment had to be carried out after treatment. The combination of lime and alum at the dose ratio of 0.8:0.8 g/L was found to be optimum for the removal of inorganics. The removal efficiency achieved at optimum concentrations were 78.6, 62.0, 62.5 and 52.8% for color, alkalinity, TSS and TDS, respectively. Coagulation-precipitation followed by adsorption on PAC resulted in 92.3% chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal and 100% phenol removal at equilibrium. This technology may prove to be one of the fastest and most techno-economically feasible methods for the treatment of tar-containing wastewater generated from BGPs. biomass gasification plant.
The specific technical objectives of this study are: 1. Identify the optimum individual doses of lime and alum (coagulant) required to achieve the best treatment efficiency. 2. Identify the optimum and minimum dose of the coagulant-combination (lime and alum) required to achieve good treatment efficiency without having to conduct final pH adjustment. 3. Determine the efficiency of the coagulationflocculation process at optimum coagulant dosage followed by adsorption on powdered activated carbon (PAC). The iodine value of PAC was 1050 mg/g. The optimum dose of lime was found to be 0.8 g/L, with maximum removal efficiency for color, TSS and TDS, and minimum amount of sludge generation. The optimum dose of alum was observed to be 0.8 g/L with maximum TSS, TDS and minimum amount of sludge generation. However, the optimum dose of alum for maximum color removal was found to be 1.0 g/L. Lime was found to remove ammonia more efficiently than alum. In the lime-alum combination, lime:alum dose of 0.8:0.8 g/L was found to demonstrate maximum removal of TSS, TDS, alkalinity, and minimum amount of sludge generation. However, the lime:alum dose of 0.9:1.0 g/L provided maximum removal of color and ammonia. The coagulation-flocculation process was found to be more efficient for the removal of color, TDS, TSS and alkalinity than for the removal of COD and phenol.

what is a wastewater treatability study and how does it work?

 what is a wastewater treatability study and how does it work?

A wastewater treatability study is a study or a test that tells us if the wastewater can be treated and how it needs to be treated. If the study is done correctly, it will clearly identify the problem you’re seeing in your wastewater stream, helping ensure the proper treatment solutions are considered.
Let’s just say, for example, that a plant processes metals—maybe a metal plating facility like a chrome plater or zinc plater—and all of the sudden, they realize residual metals are present in their wastewater, which are prohibited to discharge in just about any receiving watershed or municipality.
The company performing the study would start by taking a sample of their wastewater, analyzing it (called a characterization study) so they can identify what they think is the problem through analytical means.
Once the treatability study is complete and the problem is identified, sometimes a plant will opt to test different solutions by initially using some conventional technologies to remove the contaminants from the solution.
Once they establish that they can removed the contaminants successfully, they will then scale up the scope of the technology to sufficiently handle the full scale of the process. 

keep in mind that there is usually more than one treatment available for your problem. A reputable company will perform the treatability study and recommend different solution for you.

Polishing pond for Magur fish in ETP treated water.



 Oxygen level in the tanks should exceed 3 mg/l. If the magur fish tanks are supplied with turbid water it is advisable to filter it with through a sand filter and to aerate the tanks at night for maintaining oxygen level by using an air blower The aeration grid should be one feet above the bottom of the tank so that mud can settle at the bottom..Magur requires mud. .
A tank containing such a fish group required approximately 5 liter/min water supply. Depth of fish tanks should be 0.5–0.75 m. Let us take water depth 0.75 meter.The freeboard of the tank should be 0.5 meter so that fish don’t jump out. So total depth of tank is 1.25 Meter. Volume of the tank should be 10,000 liter. Normally it should be square in size. So length and width of tank will be 4 Meter by 4 meter. 
For avoiding the direct contact between tank wall and fish it is better to cover the inner surface of tank with polyethylene sheet.
Inlet water should be sprayed in the tank from a perforated PVC tube throughout the length.
Outlet water will overflow from a overflow weir at the outlet side. The top of the overflow weir will be covered by net/mesh. The proper mesh size is 1.0–1.5 mm
Most efficient way of plankton maintenance is frequent manuring with small doses of poultry or cattle manure. In addition to plankton maintenance, frequent manuring maintains an active and effective bacterial population in pond water. It facilitates decomposition of metabolites hampering fish growth. Poultry (5–15 kg/bigha) or cattle (10–20 kg/bigha) manure is sufficient for frequent treatment of pond.
Daily brushing of wall and bottom of the tanks is essential. Moreover, when there is deterioration in water quality, 10–20 % fresh water replacement is suggested.
Lime is used for killing different living organisms remaining in muddy pools after dewatering of ponds.
IF MAGUR SURVIVES IN THE POLISHING TANK, IT MEANS THE ETP IS RUNNING PROPERLY.


TANK SIZE : 4 x 4 x 1.25 Meter. Water depth = 0.75 Meter. Free Board=0.5 M
