Feasibility Study of Wastewater Treatment by Soil Aquifer System

Abstract

The treatment of wastewater is very important before disposal into various water bodies. But, the sustainability of the water treatment method is challenging for the environment. Soil Aquifer Treatment (SAT) is a controlled aquifer recharge system that further improves the quality of the feed water as it passes through the soil. This paper provides an overview of SAT systems for wastewater treatment and reuse. Wastewater samples are collected from the college canteen. Initially, canteen wastewater without pre-treatment was analyzed after that pre-treatment such as coagulation using neem leaves powder was carried out for canteen wastewater and then introduced into SAT system.
