Energy Minimization though Decentralized treatment
• Improve reachability, reduce the need for
sewage transportation system
• Allowing use of the treated water in-situ
• Minimizing pumping, transportation, thus
energy efficient
• Treatment where it is needed
Challenges in conventional treatment
Conventional Treatment
Remove: TSS
Treats: Bio-oxidation
NO N, P removal
mechanism
Eutrophication due to N, P

terms of cost and
energy
• Can not down-scale
• Failure due to aerators
• Sludge disposal
• Skilled manpower

Design Approach
• Operating windows for sewage, parameters
• Source based selection of unit operations
• Space availability and levels
• Proximity of end use of treated water
• Quality of water required
• Soil strata
• Design of plant, conceptual, structural and asthetics

No digestion dry on sand beds or use
mech devices
Mech. Desludging once in 5-10 years
Negligible
3. Equipment Requirement (excluding screening and grit removal common to all processes)
Aerators, recycle pumps,
scrappers, thickeners, digesters, dryers gas equipment
Nil except gas collection and
flaring gas conversion to
elect is optional
Aerations, recycle pumps
sludge, scrappers for large settlers
Aerators only
None, all flows by gravity
4. Operational Characteristics
Skilled operation

Simpler than ASP Simpler than ASP
Simple Unskilled operator
5. Special features Considerable equipment and
skilled operation reqd specially when gas collection
and usage considered
Minimal to negligible power reqd. makes it economical at
even if gas revenue is neglected
BOD removal highest effluent
nitrified high power reqd. Favoured for
small and medium plants
Power reqd. similar to
ASP operation simpler
Plant species and odour
less operations

ADVANTAGES
• Cost-effective
• Operation and maintenance expenses are negligible.
• Minimum electricity requirement, nearly fossil energy free
• Smaller footprint (Retention time: Typically less than 24 hrs.)
• Facilitates recycle and reuse of water
• No foul odor and No Mosquito Nuisance.
• Tolerates fluctuations in operating conditions such as flow,
temperature and pH

Comparison of Conventional Reed Bed and Phytorid
Conventional Reed Bed Phytorid Technology
Either vertical or horizontal flow Better hydraulics with mixed flow, advantage for better oxygen mixing
Only reed species are used for uptake of nutrients and treatment
Combinations of several plant species makes it tailor made wastewater treatment. Also the plant species are local ones
Root mass is detached after full growth and spoils the water quality after deterioration
No such root mass detachment and hence no fouling
May require larger area as shallow beds Can be designed for smaller area
Implementation Mechanism
• Technological intervention from CSIR-NEERI– Conceptual Design (vetting of design)– Overall supervision– Commissioning and water quality analysis
• Authorized Licensee– Actual implementation in the field– Maintenance
• Local Government– Resolution to adopt Phytorid– Space availability– Fund application
Conclusions
• Constructed wetland is the needed innovative technology: Ecologically benign
• Nearly free of fossil based energy therefore sustainable and doable
• Cost effective in terms of O&M is most important factor
