The comparison of efficiency and continuity between project phase and current situation-case study of Azerbaijan Nakhchivan Wastewater Treatment Plant

The rapid population growth and technological developments in our world adversely affect the ecological system over time. Water resources being the most important part of the ecological system have been rapidly polluted and the amount of wastewater generated increases in parallel with population growth and technological developments. Azerbaijan Nakhchivan Wastewater Treatment Plant, which aims to minimize the negative effects of wastewater to the discharged environment, is an A2O process projected in 2012 and completed in 2018. In this thesis study, it is aimed to determine the rationality and accuracy of the project by comparing the efficiency between the current situation and the project phase targets. Fort his purpose examinations was made in treatment plant, the laboratory analyses of influent and effluent were evaluated, problems in treatment units were investigated. Researches show that; The treatment plant project phase is as important as the construction phase. During the preparation of the project, as a result of experiments and observations that can be performed at very low costs, irreversible mistakes can be avoided. The people preparing the project should be more careful and the supervisors of the projects should show more sensitivity to this process and spend time.
