10 KLD Packaged STP at Kalaignar Memorial Chennai
HECS successfully executed the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of a 10 KLD Packaged Sewage Treatment Plant (PSTP) at the prestigious Muthamizharignar Dr. Kalaignar M. Karunanidhi Memorial in Chennai. This site receives a large number of visitors every day, making efficient wastewater treatment essential to maintain hygiene, environmental balance, and consistent operational standards within the memorial premises.
Project Overview
The memorial stands as a significant landmark in Chennai, dedicated to the legacy of Dr. M. Karunanidhi. With continuous footfall, the facility required a compact, efficient, and low-maintenance sewage treatment system. HECS was chosen for its expertise in designing reliable packaged STP solutions that deliver stable treatment performance even under variable loads.
The 10 KLD Packaged STP has been strategically designed as a plug-and-play system that ensures smooth installation and quick commissioning without disrupting the daily functioning of the memorial. The system handles the sewage generated from restrooms and utility areas and ensures that the final output meets local discharge norms.
Key Project Details
- Type of System: Packaged Sewage Treatment Plant (PSTP)
- Capacity: 10 KLD
- Location: Muthamizharignar Dr. Kalaignar M. Karunanidhi Memorial, Chennai
- Objective: Provide a compact and efficient wastewater treatment solution for a high-footfall public memorial
- Application: Sanitary sewage treatment
Technical Approach & System Features
The packaged STP is built to deliver consistent performance with minimal manual intervention. The treatment system includes:
- Collection & Equalization: Balances incoming sewage flow and stabilizes water quality before treatment
- Biological Treatment Module: Reduces organic load through proven biological processes
- Clarification Unit: Ensures proper settling of suspended solids
- Filtration & Disinfection: Achieves clear treated water output that meets local environmental norms
- Sludge Handling: Supports easy sludge removal with reduced operator effort
The entire plant structure is compact, durable, and suitable for locations with limited space such as memorials, parks, institutions, and public buildings.
Project Significance
Installing a reliable sewage treatment solution in a landmark such as this memorial ensures:
- High hygiene standards within the premises
- Environmentally responsible wastewater disposal
- Reduced dependency on external sewage systems
- Long-term operational reliability with low maintenance demands
- Better visitor experience through clean and controlled wastewater management
This installation also reinforces the growing importance of compact, packaged STPs in urban public spaces, where infrastructure must remain efficient, quiet, and visually non-intrusive.
Outcome
The 10 KLD Packaged STP at the memorial now operates seamlessly and consistently meets the required effluent quality norms. The system’s design ensures stable performance even during peak visitor hours. With this project, HECS continues its commitment to supporting Chennai’s public infrastructure with modern, efficient, and environmentally responsible wastewater treatment solutions.
