“…Anaerobic is designed for removal of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and without oxygen (Bansah & Suglo, 2016), this pond is designed with dimension of height (60 cm), width (top: 54 cm and bottom: 44 cm), this pond will be received waste water as influent, indicated in Figure 3. Facultative ponds, in which the upper and lower layers are aerobic and anaerobic, respectively; this type includes most of the ponds generally described as oxidation ponds and it is designed for BOD removal (Egwuonwu et al, 2014;Nanayakkara, 2013). this pond is designed with dimension of height (27 cm), width (42 cm) and length(62cm), this pond will be received waste water from the anerobic pond as indicated in Figure4.…”

The objective of this study is to design on waste stabilization pond model and evaluate the treatment efficiency of system by Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5), Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN), Total Suspended Solid (TSS), Temperature (T) and Turbidity, the system includes an anaerobic, facultative and maturation ponds that is used to treat waste water and water samples is collected from 4 different sites and also 3 different times of water samples, then mixed them before adding to the system, the initial concentration of T(27.3±1.93°C), pH (8.85±0.23), Turbidity (9.73±0.57 NTU), TSS (8.33±2.52 mg/l), BOD5(11.67±1.26 mg/l), COD (24.88±3.81mg/l and TKN(0.98±0.99mg/l, in addition, the experiment took 45 days to monitor the waste water in the stabilization ponds and 5 days of detention time of sampling water to test, consequently, the results revealed that, the treatment efficiency at maturation pond of effluent values of each parameter varies from 73 to 99 %, there are T (0.47%), pH (20.74%), turbidity (82.10%), TSS (79.68%), BOD5(73.88%), COD (75.27% and TKN (86.54%).

“…Recent studies have highlighted the importance of adopting sustainable wastewater management practices in institutional settings (Adebowale et al, 2020). Egwuonwu et al (2014) carried out a study aimed at the design, construction and performance evaluation of a model Waste Stabilization Pond (WSP). The WSP comprised of one facultative pond and three maturation ponds all in series.…”

Sanitation is a basic human requirement with the primary aim of separating human waste from settlements to prevent the spread of diseases. This study presents a preliminary design of a centralized sewerage collection, transportation, treatment, and final disposal system for the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology (NCAT) Zaria, Kaduna State (Site 1). The results of physico-chemical analysis of samples showed concentrations of Nitrates (2,550mg/l) and total suspended solids T.S.S. (1,778mg/l) were above the acceptable standard limits. The concentrations of Zinc (5.31mg/l) and Lead (2.78mg/l) were also above the acceptable limits. A sewerage system which comprised of 18 manholes, 22 junction chambers and 39 sewers covering a distance of 2,816m was designed for the college. The results of the design showed that 3 facultative and 3 maturation ponds were required. The capital cost for implementing the proposed sewerage system and WSPs for the college was determined to be ₦14,649,855.75 with an annual cost of operation and maintenance of ₦3,030,000.00. A comparison of the proposed sewerage and WSPs system with the existing septic tank and soak-away system revealed that the proposed sewerage and WSPs system had a higher cost-benefit ratio (0.94), longer lifespan (30 years), lower cost of annual desludging (₦30,000.00), and lower risks of groundwater contamination.
