Design of Disinfection System for Septic Tank Overflow Water
Access to clean drinking water is a fundamental human right, yet millions worldwide lack access to safe and portable water. Waterborne pathogens like E. coli and fecal coliform pose significant health risks. In this project we develop a disinfection dosage system using neem (Azadirachta indica) extract to treat septic tank over flow water, rich in pathogens and contaminants which cause surface water and ground water contamination. Our system leverages neem extract's antimicrobial properties, demonstrated through membrane filtration tests, which show significant microbial load reduction. This innovative approach offers a sustainable, effective, and eco-friendly solution for treating septic tank overflow water, promoting public health and mitigating waterborne diseases.
