Study on Nitrogen Removal Capability of Selected Regional Sewage Treatment Plants in Klang Valley, Malaysia
A laboratory-based study was undertaken on the capability of nitrogen removal and other pollutants for selected public sewage treatment plants operated by Indah Water Konsortium (IWK) in Malaysia namely Cyberjaya Sewage Treatment Plant (STP), in Selangor, Bandar Tun Razak STP and Pantai STP both located in Kuala Lumpur. The sewage treatment plants utilize extended aeration system (EA), sequencing batch reactor (SBR), and advanced conventional activated sludge (CAS) respectively. The new regulation of Environmental Quality Act, Environmental Quality (Sewage) Effluent Regulation 2009 was enacted on 10th December 2009. All the selected STPs are subjected to EQA Standard B and they were constructed way before the new regulation is enforced. The new regulation requires all effluent discharges from sewage treatment plants to comply with effluent discharges not only on carbon organic pollutants but also on the nutrient pollutants for examples nitrogen and phosphorus. All the selected STPs were found to be very efficient in removing the organic carbon such as BOD, SS and COD, oil and grease. The effluent released to the water body was found to be satisfactory and complied to the new effluent standard. Laboratory test and data sampling collected showed similarity in term of patterns and values of the influent and effluent concentrations. The concentration of influent was found to be below the recommended design influent values. Since the selected STP are equipped with nitrogen removal facilities, there are some reductions or removal of nitrogen contents in effluent found in the samples.
