Abstract: The present study has been undertaken to evaluate the performance of 43 MLD Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) located at Vadodara which is based on UASB process. The Performance Evaluation will also help for the better understanding of design and operating difficulties in Sewage Treatment Plant. Sewage samples were collected from different locations i.e. Raw sewage, UASB outlet and Outlet of the Treatment Plant and analysed for the major waste-water quality parameters, such as pH, Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), MLSS. The performance efficiency of each unit & overall STP in treating the pollutants was calculated. The conclusions of these evaluations may determine required recommendations and focus on modification requirements for the STP and will also determine whether the effluent discharged into the water body are under limits given by GPCB. The conclusions drawn from this study will outline the need for continuous monitoring and performance analysis by removal efficiencies of each and every unit of STP.
