Natural methods of sewage disposal
• These methods are broadly divided into two
categories:
• Disposal by dilution
• Disposal by land treatment.
STANDARDS OF DILUTION
Dilution Standards of purification
factor
Above 500 No treatment is necessary. The raw sewage can directly be
discharged into the volume of dilution water.
300 to 500 The preliminary treatment should be given to the sewage and
the content of suspended solids should not exceed 150 p.p.m.
150 to 300 The preliminary treatment including the chemical precipitation
should be given to the sewage and the content of suspended
solids should not exceed 60 p.p.m.
8 to 150 The sewage should be treated extensively. The content of
suspended solids should not be more than 30 p.p.m. and 5-day
B.O.D. should not exceed 20 p.p.m.
Less than 8 The sewage should be completely treated before it is thrown
into water for dilution.
