Improving Wastewater Effluent of Septic Tank Using Capillarity Action

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Mechanical and Civil Engineering (IOSR-JMCE) - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 1

Abstract

This study used simple modification of septic tank using capillarity action of different fabrics such as (cotton, nonwoven polyester, non-woven polypropylene geo-textile 300gm, non- woven polypropylene geotextile 800 gm. and filter labbad). Study results show that using cotton and non-woven polypropylene geo-textile 800gm improve the removal efficiency of septic tank to (97 % - 98 %) for TSS & (82%-83% )for BOD & (62% - 64%) for COD.
