| Abstract: | Waste Stabilization Pond for Abattoir Wastewater Treatment in Makurdi was developed and evaluated under laboratory-scale into ratio 40:1. WSP is a natural biological wastewater treatment facility designed to reduce organic contents and remove pathogen levels from wastewater to protect public health and sustenance of the ecosystem. The system consists of anaerobic, facultative and maturation ponds which were made up of three sets arranged in series. Influent concentration was characterized and compared with that of the final effluent. Pollutant parameters characterized were COD, TSS, TDS, Turbidity, Conductivity and E. coli. Others are Ca, Mg, Na, pH, Salinity and Temperature. NH4, BOD, PO4, and NO3 were also characterized in the laboratory using standard methods. It showed that E. coli, COD and TDS indicated high level of presence; hence their removal was monitored for three weeks. Removal efficiency for E.coli in the Anaerobic ponds were 30.77%, 7.69% and 15.38% in the first, second and third cycles respectively. In the Facultative ponds; it was 69.23%, 76.92% and 69.23%, while removal efficiency was 100%, 100% and 92.31% in the Maturation ponds. COD removal in the Anaerobic was 49.76%, 67.54% and 78.47%. In the Facultative; it was 72.43%, 70.64%, 53.99%. And in the Maturation ponds it was 74.23%, 77.81% and 75.86%. TDS removal recorded 29.17%, 20.83% and 33.33% in the Anaerobic, 35.42%, 29.17% and 33.33% in the Facultative, in the maturation; it was 37.50%, 37.50% and 41.67%. Statistical results obtained showed significant improvements particularly in Anaerobic and Maturation ponds. Pathogen removal level was achieved that complies with recommended effluent discharge quality. |
