Water management is an urban process in which various sources of clean water are gathered and distributed to citizens. This process involves many technical processes in which mechanical engineering is highly used. We bring our different solutions for these processes.
Water and wastewater management activities
The goal of water and wastewater management is to clean and protect water. This means they have somehow the same task, though their primary resources of activities are different. Nowadays, wastewater management is something more than leading wastewater to nature after water is used. Even when there is a plan to dispose of wastewater in such places, it should be done under conditions that are not harmful to humans or living organisms in nature. Contaminants should be removed and some technical procedures are used to make sure that they are properly treated. Wastewater is full of contaminants containing bacteria, chemicals, and other toxins. It should be reduced to an acceptable level to make the water safe for returning to the environment.
There are two main types of wastewater treatment plants:
- Physical wastewater treatment plants
- Biological wastewater treatment plants
Physical wastewater treatment plants use physical processes as well as chemical reactions to treat wastewater and turn it to clean water that could become back to the water cycle. Biological wastewater treatment plants use biological matter and bacteria to disinfect wastewater. The last one is ideal for treating wastewater from homes and urban places, while Physical wastewater treatment plants are mostly helpful to treat industrial wastewater.
Main steps in wastewater management
It is a long process with various steps and procedures in which various contaminants would be removed from wastewater. The following steps should take place in this process:
Wastewater Collection
Odor control
Screening
Primary Treatment
Secondary Treatment
Bio-Solids handling
Tertiary Treatment
Disinfection
