Urban Wastewater Treatment Plants are used to treat domestic wastewater generated at medium and large scaled residential areas (cities, districts, towns, villages, etc.).
Urban wastewaters may have differences in design stages as they cover domestic wastewater, partially industrial wastewater and rain water in residential areas.
Inlet water quality, wastewater flow rate, treated water quality, site conditions and other similar parameters are considered when designing Wastewater Treatment Plants. At these wastewater treatment plants, suitable units such as sand and oil traps, pre-lift stations, mechanical coarse screens, mechanical fine screens, belt conveyors, compactors, equalization tanks, pumping stations, flow rate measuring devices, bio-phosphorus units, biological treatment reactors, sedimentation tanks, distribution structures, disinfection units, filtration systems, odor removal systems, sludge thickeners and sludge dewatering systems, etc. are preferred depending on the process selected.
Generally, a laboratory unit is also installed at Urban Wastewater Treatment Plans to carry out regular analyses related to the plant’s inlet and outlet waters so that the plant is operated optimally.
In order to ensure ease of operation and maintenance, the relevant electrical and automation works at the plant are designed according to the process and the PLC Scada systems allow the plant to work with optimum efficiency.
