Situation

Due to the construction of a housing estate in Sri Lanka, a new sewage treatment plant was required for compliance with the local environmental regulations. The wastewater treatment system supplied cleans the sewage to a standard that allows direct discharge into the environment.

Problem

Housing developments and apartment blocks are obliged to consider how the manage and dispose of the black and greywater produced from buildings. This wastewater must be treated to allow for safe discharge or reuse.

In addition, due to increased environmental awareness, house purchasers are now paying attention to water sustainability when choosing their homes.

With house builders trying to maximise the number of houses they can build on their development site, the need for compact containerized solutions that have a small footprint is increasing instead of conventional septic systems that have a very large space requirement.

Solution

With the effective and cost-saving system technology, the housing development takes on a pioneering role in wastewater treatment. The plant is designed in such a way that it permanently complies with the European limit values for direct discharge into waters for BOD, COD, TSS and Ammonia.

The environmentally conscious treatment of the waste water produced in the residential complex enables safe disposal into he environment. The containerized system is totally silent in operation and produces no odour.

The compact sewage treatment plant consists of a biological FBBR treatment, with lamella separator as a secondary clarifier.

FAQ

Yes, the container sewage treatment plant is flexible and can be used for various residential areas, hotels, resorts or industrial plants with domestic wastewater. The size and capacity can be scaled according to requirements.

The system is specifically designed for domestic wastewater, including black and grey water from residential areas, hotels or similar establishments.

The sewage treatment plant complies with the European limit values for direct discharge into water bodies with regard to BOD, COD, TSS and ammonia.

Thanks to its compact design, the system requires very little floor space. The exact size depends on the capacity, but can be accommodated in modified containers.

Yes, the modular design allows for easy scaling if the number of residents or the amount of wastewater increases.

The system operates almost silently, as no loud mechanical processes such as fans or pumps are required in continuous operation.
