Water is a precious commodity. Most of the earth
water is sea water. About 2.5% of the water is fresh
water that does not contain significant levels of
dissolved minerals or salt and two third of that is
frozen in ice caps and glaciers. In total only 0.01% of
the total water of the planet is accessible for
consumption.

Clean drinking water is a basic human need.
Unfortunately, more than one in six people still lack
reliable access to this precious resource in developing
world.

*Introduction
India accounts for 2.45% of land area and 4% of
water resources of the world but represents 16%
of the world population. With the present
population growth-rate (1.9 per cent per year), the
population is expected to cross the 1.5 billion
mark by 2050.

The Planning Commission, Government of India
has estimated the water demand increase from
710 BCM (Billion Cubic Meters) in 2010 to almost
1180 BCM in 2050 with domestic and industrial
water consumption expected to increase almost
2.5 times.
The rapid growth of population has exerted the
portable water demand, which requires exploration
of raw water sources, developing treatment and
distribution systems.

* Government Role
The State Government Constituted a Corporation
by the name of UTTAR PRADESH JAL NIGAM in
the year 1975 which came into existence with
effect from 18th June 1975. Its area of operation
extends to whole of Uttar Pradesh excluding
Cantonment areas under an Act called as Uttar
Pradesh Water Supply & Sewerage Act, 1975.

The basic objective of creating this corporation is
development and regulation of water supply &
sewerage services and for matters connected
therewith.

Piped water supply was first commissioned in
Lucknow town in 1895 with the construction of
one intake works at Gaughat on the River Gomti.
Raw water from the Gomti was pumped through a
21-inch cast iron main to the Aishbagh Water
Works in the Cis-Gomti area where fill-and-draw
type settling tanks and slow sand filters were
constructed for treatment. The filtered water was
then pumped to the City for distribution through a
network of cast iron mains.
*Problem Definition
Proposed Methodology
The methodology consists of two phases, as
below:

1. Questionnaire survey
2. Field studies

1. Questionnaire Survey

Preliminary survey or acquiring knowledge for
Population,
Source of water,
Type of water treatment schemes
Capacity of water treatment plants

Subsequently, State Pollution Control Boards and State
Public Health Engineering Department were also
approached for obtaining informations.

2. Field studies
In the field studies,
Site selected
Data Collection
Raw water quality,
Treated water quality,
Organizational structure for Operation and
Maintenance Operational status / Problems
Detailed information
Analysis of Data
Recommendation/ Modification
Conclusion

*Purpose And Significance
Three basic purpose of Analysis of Water Treatment
Plants are as follows:

To produce water that is safe for human
consumption
To produce water that is appealing to the consumer
To produce water - using facilities which can be
constructed and operated at a reasonable cost

Production of biologically and chemically safe water is the primary
goal in the design of water treatment plants; anything less is
unacceptable.

*Facilities Provided

Laboratory for testing and analyzing of PH
and quality of water obtained and treated.
Chemicals
Salts
Indicators
PH meter
Data available at the field site of previous
years.
