Observations:
 The CETP is commissioned in an Industrial park M/s Rubber Park India (P) Ltd.,
developed by KINFRA & Rubber Board. The Rubber Park has 37 industries in which 13
units are member of CETP. All units are Rubber & Rubber Wood Based.
 The CETP has installed capacity of 250 KLD in which about 80-90 KLD of effluent is
received from the member units through tankers.
Trucks Carrying Effluent to CETP
 The treatment system in the CETP includes physio-chemical and biological treatments.
The CETP consists of equilisation tank, flocculation tank, primary clarifier, bio towers,
settling tank, aeration tank, secondary clarifier, chlorination tank, sand & carbon filter and
sludge drying bed.

 The samples were collected at different stages of the treatment unit. The characteristics of
the effluent are shown below.

* All values are in mg/l except pH
 MLSS in the aeration is observed very less. It was informed by the CETP that the
operation & maintenance of the plant is changed to new agency. The new agency has
desludged from aeration tank a day before the monitoring and fresh microbes were being
developed.
Aeration Tank & Bio Towers
 The treated effluent quality is within the stipulated norms and discharged on land for
gardening.
 The sludge drying bed was found filled with the sludge. Since Kerala is having high
rainfall rate of drying is very less.

Sludge Drying Bed
 No flow meters were installed at inlet and outlet of CETP.
Recommendations:
 MLSS in the aeration tank should be maintained as per designed concentration for
effective treatment.
 Mechanical desludging such as filter press, decanter etc. shall be installed.
 Flow meters shall be installed at inlet and outlet of CETP.
 Treated effluent shall be reused/ recycled to achieve Zero Liquid Discharge.
