Thank you for your answer Karthick, shall I know any sustainable technique used for seawater treatment in hotel industry, because Sri Lanka is widely practiced beach hotels for their tourism developments.
that’s a tricky question and there is no standard solution.
It depends on the quantity and the quality of your wastewater.
Step 1: First of all, you should think about the separation of black water from grey water
Step 2: Black water could be treated with an anaerobic 3-chamber system. The output should be enriched with nutrients and could be used as a fertilizer for the hotel garden… keep in mind that local hygienic regulations sometimes give extra instructions for the reuse of black water.
Step 3: aerobic gray water treatment…. In this stage, you can also insert the output of step 2.
Step 4: A Pond with plants for further nutrient extraction and to collect the treated water.
Step 5: reverse osmosis to purify the water.
I am not too deep in this whole wastewater topic, but that´s how I would try it.
- treat the hotel wastewater and the osmosis waste waters.
So:
- The brine from osmosis does not require treatment, it is not contaminated, it simply has more salts => directly to sea.
- Hotel sanitary wastewater + backwash of osmosis sand filters plus osmosis reagents drains, can be sent to a conventional sanitary wastewater treatment plant. The salinity will not be very high because the hotel supply is sweet water.
