Sewage Treatment Plant
Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) involves the treatment of wastewater through a series of physical, biological, and chemical processes to remove pollutants and contaminants. The primary principle is to mimic and enhance natural processes that occur in the environment to purify water.
This is achieved by promoting the growth of beneficial microorganisms that break down organic matter, settling out solids, and disinfecting the water to ensure it meets quality standards before being discharged or reused.
The process of wastewater treatment is called sewage or wastewater treatment.
Water Treatment Plant
To help keep water safe as it travels to homes and businesses, water treatment plants will make sure the water has low levels of the chemical disinfectant when it leaves the treatment plant. This remaining disinfectant kills germs living in the pipes between the water treatment plant and your tap.
In addition to or instead of adding chlorine, chloramine, or chlorine dioxide, water treatment plants can also disinfect water using UV light and ozone work well to disinfect water in the treatment plant, but these disinfection methods do not continue killing germs as water travels through the pipes between the treatment plant and your tap.
Water treatment plants also commonly adjust water pH and add fluoride after the disinfection step. Adjusting the pH improves taste, reduces corrosion (breakdown) of pipes, and ensures chemical disinfectants continue killing germs as the water travels through pipes. Drinking water with the right amount of fluoride keeps teeth strong and reduces cavities.
Domestic Booster System
A domestic water pressure booster system is essential for buildings with inadequate supply pressure from the city or buildings served from storage tanks. A booster ensures potable water is available at appropriate pressures on every level of a building.
