How To Perform Green Wastewater Treatment

By Stephanie Martin


In almost every part of the world, many liters of water are consumed on daily basis. As a result, a lot of waste is produced. If the waste produced is allowed to move freely in the environment, the effect resulting lacks the audacity to talk about. For this reason, green wastewater treatment is essential for proper environment protection. In addition, the ailments that arise owing to dirt consumption are likely to stop. Indeed, this process is mandatory for a healthy society.

Waste liquid has many components dissolved in it. Phosphorous and nitrogenous wastes are some of the dissolved ones. Indeed, these are harmful to the health of an individual. At times harmful pathogens that may be present are a threat to consumers. If unlucky person consumes water with high concentration of above mentioned component, the chances of survival are minimal. To avoid above mentioned problems, it is important to ensure that purification is done in the right manner and at the right time.

Purification of waste liquid avoids the harmful effects of toxic components present. The process of purification may be done by different organizations. The process may seem expensive but in real sense it is quite cheap. It is important to comprehend that maintenance cost is less compared to the hazard that may arise if persons consumes liquid full of pathogenic components.

The process results in clear liquid. Unpurified one, normally, has suspended particles that make the solution cloudy. This is indeed a menace to the organism beneath. Phytoplanktons are unable to make food due to the lack of sunlight. Few population of these minute plants results in few number of fish and other organisms that depend on them. Indeed, the importance of purification process has been justified.

Currently, the mostly used method of treatment involves the use of drugs. This is a delicate method of treatment in that under dose, has unpleasing effects. On the other hand, overdose may lead to the death of infected persons. It is therefore very important to ensure that a medical specialist should be involved in the process to prevent such devastating effects. To counter the effects that may result due to carelessness, scientists have introduced different methods which are less difficult.

To avoid the menace that may arise if chemical method is accidentally misused, scientists have introduced another complex and health method of purification. This commences by introducing some life and harmless microorganisms that may end up reacting against the harmful ones. After a short duration of time, the harmless ones consume harmful ones. After the solid materials are eliminated, it becomes ready and safe for consumption.

In treatment plant, the odor is removed with the help of carbon rich medium that is composed of smaller microorganisms. The odorless solution moves to the pond where nutrients are absorbed by both the higher plants and algae. The algae present in ponds helps in the aeration of resulting solution. This helps in creating conducive environment for the organisms that may be present.

After pollutants are removed, the output moves to sludge tank. Here there is the presence of small organisms which removes residues that are organic. After passing through root zone plant, filtration takes place resulting into particle free liquid.
