An Experimental Study on Suitability on Treated Sewage Water for Agriculture

Abstract

The present study is on the purification of sewage water for agricultural purpose by using various chemicals and natural absorbent (rice husk charcoal &Activated charcoal). The sewage water is collected and conduct pre-treatment test for various parameters like pH, Hardness, Total dissolved solids, Total suspended solids, BOD, COD, Dissolved Oxygen, Chlorides content. Then coagulant with rice husk ash, charcoal the rice husk ash is prepared by using muffle furnace at 100oC. The rice husk is low in cost and easily available. Treating of sewage water with rice husk ash & charcoal helps to decrease the pH, BOD, COD, Total hardness, chlorides, TSS, TDS. The filtration is done by using what man filter paper. After the filtration, check the parameters like pH, Hardness, Turbidity, Chloride, Total Dissolved solids, Total Suspended solids. After post treatment process pH, BOD, COD, Chlorides TSS, TDS, and Hardness are decreased. By using natural absorbent (rice husk char & charcoal).The values are neutralized at 3% of coagulant.
