Sewage Treatment Plant Chennai

Efficient & Reliable

Why is STP Essential in Chennai ?

Setting up a Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) is mandatory for almost all new residential complexes, commercial buildings, IT parks, hospitals, and hotels in Chennai. Before construction, consent from the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) is required. In Chennai, untreated sewage frequently contaminates local water bodies, such as the Cooum River and Marina Beach, posing serious health risks and contributing to waterborne diseases. Seasonal flooding during monsoons exacerbates pollution, overwhelming drainage systems and creating significant sanitation issues. Additionally, rapid urbanization has outpaced infrastructure development, leading to environmental degradation and threats to local ecosystems. Approximately 5 million children die annually due to waterborne diseases caused by sewage. Effective sewage treatment solutions are urgently needed.

TNPCB Rules

TamilNadu  Pollution Control Board for Residential ,Industries , Commercial and Educational Institutions. 

Residential
GPCB requires environmental clearance for residential projects, especially larger ones, to ensure proper waste management and stormwater drainage. Compliance with noise pollution standards is essential during construction and occupancy. Rainwater harvesting and wastewater treatment systems are encouraged to minimize environmental impact. These measures aim to promote sustainable development. Ultimately, the focus is on protecting local ecosystems.

Industries
Industries must secure “Consent to Establish” (CTE) and “Consent to Operate” (CTO) from TGPCB prior to operations. They are required to implement pollution control measures to meet emission and discharge standards. Mandatory effluent treatment plants (ETPs) must treat wastewater before discharge. Regular monitoring and record-keeping are crucial for compliance. These regulations ensure sustainable and responsible industrial practices.

Commercial Establishments
Commercial establishments must obtain environmental clearances and comply with waste management regulations. Effective waste segregation and recycling practices are essential to reduce ecological footprints. They must adhere to air quality and noise standards during operations to safeguard community health. Adopting energy-efficient practices and renewable energy sources is encouraged. The overall goal is to promote sustainability and benefit the local environment.

Educational Institutions
Educational institutions should integrate environmental education into their curricula to raise awareness among students. They must establish solid waste management systems, including waste segregation and responsible disposal methods. Water conservation practices, like rainwater harvesting, are essential for sustainability. Engaging in green initiatives, such as tree planting, enhances environmental stewardship. This approach fosters a culture of responsibility among future generations.

TNPCB Norms

TNPCB Sewage Treatment Norms

Setting up an easySTP wastewater treatment plant , you need to obtain the Consent to Establish (CTE). Once the plant is ready to operate, ensure you secure the Consent to Operate (CTO) to begin running your easySTP.

TNPCB requires the reuse of treated water for non-drinking purposes to save water and cut down on water pollution. easySTP systems are made to in view of this.

Ensuring a reliable STP is key to meet TNPCB rules. With easySTP, you get a wastewater treatment plant that’s simple and affordable to maintain. These steps help  meet TNPCB norms and reduce water pollution, keeping the environment safe.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Frequently Asked Questions

No STP is truly “zero maintenance,” but some advanced systems minimize maintenance needs while still requiring regular monitoring to comply with TNPCB norms.

Technologies like Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) and Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) effectively meet TNPCB standards and can be customized for specific sites.

TNPCB norms are generally strict, specific exemptions may apply to small-scale or temporary projects; direct consultation with TNPCB is advisable.

Rules are applicable for projects that begun after March 2021. Whatever is specified in the CTE has to be implemented
