| Summary: | University Technology PETRONAS, UTP, has several wastewater treatment plants
treating wastewater generated within the university campus. A small wastewater
treatment plant located behind Chemical Engineering Programme Buildings is the subject
matter for this project. Recently, issue on whether the existing Effluent Treatment Plant
for Chemical Engineering Programme Buildings is suitable with the characteristics ofthe
wasteproduced has been raised.
Several characteristics of the wastewater influent to the wastewater plant were analyzed
and as a result all the tested parameters except for chromium (VI) content showed that the
existing plant is suitable with the characteristics of the waste produced. Hexavalent
chromium concentration was found to be in the range of 0.05 - 0.086 mg/L, which is
more than the allowable limit of 0.05 mg/L.
