Application of Hydropower Technology in Wastewater Treatment Plants Step Towards Sustainable Environment

Digisha Patel* and Hemali Jardosh

Water and Wastewater treatment plants requires huge amount of energy operation cost. As per the energy demand, water companies require cost reducing and sustainable solution to produce energy. The generated energy should reduce its dependence on fossil fuel. For this study, different types of hydropower technology have been studied. And as per suitable criteria of wastewater treatment plants, Gravitational water vortex flow power plant which is one of the best low head and low flow rate based hydropower technology have been selected. To determine optimum efficiency of power plant, a lab scale model will be prepared for selected hydropower technology. Generated electricity will be considered for co2 reduction energy and it can use in plant itself which can reduce its cost. Parameters of wastewater will be check for selection of appropriate turbine blade materials. This will be an innovative approach which can reduce the energy cost of wastewater treatment plants.
