Abstract: Bristol [sr/ib] Contrary to what the picture might suggest, passengers on the bus connecting the town of Bath with Bristol airport will not have to sit on toilet seats. In fact, the picture on the side of the bus is a simple illustration of how it actually works. In place of diesel, the eco-friendly vehicle uses biomethane gas, generated at Bristol sewage treatment works in Avonmouth, as its sole fuel source. According to Bath Bus Company, the line ' s operator, the yearly excrement of five people is enough to produce a full tank of gas, equivalent to roughly 300 kilometers. ?Poo-Buses? could become the rule rather than the exception in Bristol, as town has designated European Green Capital for 2015 and awaits a significant number of visitors.

Abstract: Water on the earth has recycled and reused for millions of years. Due to rapid urbanization in India, our natural resources are being stressed due to increasing population. The cities let out their untreated sewage into water bodies like river, lakes and sea. This causes pollution of water sources of people residing in downstream cities. So that it is need of hour for recycling and reuse of city effluents. The farmers in downstream vicinity of cities have been using the untreated city effluents for a long time. The risks to public health from the use of agricultural produce associated with from the use of city effluent. Damage to agricultural lands and risks to the health of workers on the farms and to the users of the produce had been on the increase. People are attracted towards cash crops like sugarcane, tomato, vegetables etc. The nutrients in sewage like nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium along with the micro nutrients as well as organic matter present in it could be advantageously employed to add to the fertility and improve the drainage characteristics of the soil, along with the irrigation potential of the water content. Regarding with this quality of water we have undertaken this research work ?Reuse of City effluents of Aurangabad city for agriculture.? We have collected any analysed the physical and chemical characteristics of water samples along the KHAM river at ten selected stations. From this we have concluded that the quality of water is degrading at all respective stations for the whole length.

Abstract: Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a forthcoming technology for energy recovery associated with organic matter directly into electricity, with subsequent wastewater treatment. The MFC can become alternative energy source for onsite appliances, simultaneously treating organic wastewaters. Possibility of MFC as a wastewater treatment unit is discussed in this paper. MFC gives greater than 90 % COD removal efficiency and about 6 % coulombic efficiency under batch mode of operation with 48 hours reaction time. While about 65 to 70 % COD removal efficiency and 3 to 4 % coulombic efficiency was obtained under continuous mode of operation at the hydraulic retention time of 24 hr. Energy recovery from this unit is still not comparable to other biofuels. Enhancement in power harvesting with better understanding of the process will make it attractive alternative for wastewater treatment and direct electricity recovery in future.

Abstract: The conventional definition of pollution prevention includes measures that reduce the amount of pollution at source. In storm water management terms pollution prevention applies to activities that reduce the application of pollutants to urban surfaces. An urban or urbanizing watershed can be defined as an area in which all or part of the watershed will be covered by impervious structures, such as roads, footpaths, parking lots and houses. In recent years the focus on environmental impacts of discharges of urban storm water and road runoff has increased and physical, chemical and biological problems have been addressed. Storm water runoff from urban surfaces often contains elevated levels of toxic pollutants when discharged directly into water bodies. These pollutants degrade water quality and impact aquatic life and human health and have potential for carcinogenic, mutagenic and /or allergic effects. Storm Water Management (SWM) objective is essentially to safeguard health, safety and property of the citizens/residents and to reduce inconvenience to them by having an integrated approach for developing and maintaining a system for storm water runoff which will provide better quality of life for the society. This paper aims to provide pollution prevention, control plans and techniques and best management practices to reduce pollution impacts arise from urban runoff. Thus the storm water quality can be maintained properly, aquatic life, health and safety of the citizens/residents can be saved.

Abstract: Storm water management is knowledge used to understand, control and utilize water in their different forms within the hydrological cycle. The effect of urban development has increased flood frequencies in area due to imperviousness. Also the growing impact of urban water on surface quality has driven the need for more accurate modeling of storm water pollution. Storm water management ' s (SWM) objective is essentially to safeguard health, safety and property of the citizens/residents and to reduce inconvenience to them by having an integrated approach for developing and maintaining a system for storm water runoff which will provide better quality of life for the society. The need for more accurate storm water quality model is to achieve greater sustainability in the water sector through holistic management and optimization of the drinking water, storm water, and receiving water system. This paper presents procedure for design/ application and selection of model for urban storm water management. Design criteria for model provide guidance for establishing written plans prior to conducting modeling efforts. The creation and use of environmental modeling plans is increasingly important as the result of modeling efforts. The creation and use of environmental modeling plans is increasingly important as the result of modeling projects is used in decision making processes that have significant implications.

Abstract: India is surrounded by water bodies on the three sides yet the country faces water shortage every year! The per capita water availability in India was 3450 M3 in 1951. By 2025, the annual per capita availability of water is expected to fall drastically from the current 1800 M3 Per person to 1200-1500 M3. Unless priority is given to creating an infrastructure to assure availability of water, there may be no water to meet the agricultural, domestic and industrial needs of a population that has tripled in 50 years to one billion. By year 2050 Indian population is expected to touch a figure of about 145-150 crores. Therefore water management is major challenge in terms of availability of water but most important is its quality. As water shortage increases alternate concepts of water supply or generating water are gaining importance. This includes sewage recycle, rainwater harvesting, recycling water management is major challenge in terms of availability of water but most important is its quality. As water shortage increases alternate concepts of water supply or generating water are gaining importance. This includes sewage recycle, rainwater harvesting, recycling of backwash water etc. Backwash water recycle is a simple, effective and economical solution to conserve water, so that more fresh water is available for uses such as drinking, bathing flushing etc. In water treatment plant, amount of backwash water varying from 1 to 5 % of the total filtered water at intervals of 1to 3 days. This backwash water quantity is in thousands of liter depending on plant capacity. Generally it is not utilized in water treatment plant, but it is released in to sewer lines or natural drains. Thus, this water is waste and again it increases load on the wastewater treatment plant. The recycling of backwash water will reduce the quantity of water to be lifted from the source, similarly losses will be minimized, which will as if we are indirectly generating the water at the treatment plant itself. Similarly it will reduce load on wastewater treatment plant. The paper will highlight different methods to minimize production backwash water. Similarly analysis of backwash water before treatment and after treatment, different treatment alternatives, along with case study. This work is an attempt to study the feasibility of recycling and reusing the filter backwash of water treatment plant.

Abstract: Rapid population increase, dramatic changes in production and consumption patterns and large-scale rural-to-urban migration have changed the way environment and natural resources are used. This has put a severe strain on the civic services, namely, drinking water, sewerage, solid waste management, storm water disposal, and other allied services, hampering the quality of these services. The consequence is a heavy toll on the natural elements such as air, water and soil. In urban areas, where the population density is high, the impact on the natural elements is even higher. The demand for a comprehensive approach to integrate the various environmental services has become the need of the hour, wherein there is a minimal impact on the supporting ecosystem as well as considerable saving in the overall operations, promoting sustainable development. Nashik is one of the upcoming and high growth potential cities in the state of Maharashtra, India. The civic services in the city are administered by the Municipal Corporation of Nashik City. The present research paper studies the existing wastewater treatment plant and wastewater management system o the city in order to evaluate its effectiveness and compliance with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) effluent discharge standards, as well as assessing the amenability to integration measures. The paper discusses the administrative set up of the Municipal Corporation and functioning of wastewater management departments. The existing wastewater management is critically evaluated for its effectiveness. The problems faced by the municipal corporation in the working of these services and implementation of the statutory norms and the efforts taken to resolve them are discussed at length, so that further efforts towards integration and sustainable measures can be undertaken.

Abstract: In India the last one decade has witnessed growing water stress, both in terms of water scarcity and quality deterioration, which has prompted many municipalities to look for a more efficient use of water resources, including a more widespread acceptance of water management practices .Wastewater management is a part of integrated waste management which would help ineffective management of wastewater. An integrated approach involving wastewater treatment, source reduction, reuse of process water, recycling of treated effluent and waste-minimization would lead to clean and green environment. Three technical areas are dealt with: domestic wastewater, industrial wastewater management, and wastewater re-use. Each approach is reviewed from a technical perspective with a further commentary on economic and social factors that underpin the different techniques that each approach has to offer. The preliminary evaluation indicates that for the management of domestic and industrial wastewater and increased utilization of reclaimed wastewater, clearer institutional arrangements, more dedicated economic instruments and the set-up of water resuse guidelines are needed. Technological innovation and the establishment of a best practice framework will help, but even more, a change is needed in the underlying stakeholders ' perception of the water cycle.

Abstract: In a developing country like India, distillery industries become a major pollution, as 88 % of its raw materials are converted into waste and discharged into the water bodies, causing water pollution. The waste water from distilleries carry appreciable organic load. The spent wash is colored, highly acidic with very offensive odor, which poses serious environmental problems. To over its ill effects and to reduce the cost of the effluent treatment, the present research has been undertaken to convert the distillery waste into compost by means of Bio composting. The present work also includes the study of abiotic factors affecting the rate of decomposition and a few innovative works have been done to improve the quantity and quality of the Bio compost. Comparisons of the Bio-compost produced by this method with chemical fertilizers have been made and the results are encouraging. Effluents are reserves of hidden treasures. Effluents, if subjected to proper treatment, reap rich rewards. The industrial effluents if efficiently treated and will be generated non-conventional energy. Hence the industrial wastes are converted into energy which go back in the production process and help cut costs .Environment is protected from further damage and forest resource depletion is also prevented and forest resource depletion is also prevented in addition. Industrial effluents should not be discharged into natural water resources, if by products can be extracted from the wastes like methane and it is further treated by method of bio composting.
