Executive Summary
Combined Sewer Overflow Power Generation is a project aimed
to determine a range of
power requirements for the environmental remediation solutions
that could be implemented at
each CSO. Northumbria University students were tasked to
completing the Combined Sewer
Overflow Power Generation, and this report provides them with
the information they need to

guarantee that the project is successfully completed and
managed. In order to accomplish this,
the report has produced Programs and Schedules that may be
implemented to the project based
on the project's characteristics and the needs of the client.
Because of this, the report established
Management of relevant training programs for the project based
on the demands of the client,
including the requirement for early project delivery and r egular
client engagement in the project.
On the basis of this, the Northumbria student recommends the
most relevant solutions to be
employed in the project, which it is believed will be most
effective in achieving the largest
possible benefit for the client.

Introduction
The advanced practices semester will help a lot of things to lean
in my upcoming projects and
real-time experiences. Each stage of work is very challenging
for me and makes me give the best
output to the client and prove myself as the best. Mainly this
semester teach me how to engage
the client and what type of work I have to be present in a real -
time project, and how to engage in
the project phases and the engagement of work has expressed
below.
How students engaged the work
Stage.1
The Northumbrian pupils showed a high level of enthusiasm for
the task. The student’s
determination to do their best was evident in their demeanor and

positive attitude, which all
indicated how they were going to approach the job. In order to
participate in the project, the
students divided themselves into groups, with each group being
assigned a specific aspect of the
work.
Stage.2
Each group was led by a group leader, whose primary
responsibility was to ensure that the work
flowed smoothly. Each group was given a specific amount of
time in which to complete their
tasks. The goal of establishing a time restriction for completion
of the task was to ensure that the
entire project was completed on schedule.
Stage.3
The project manager was responsible for ensuring that the
project was presented efficiently and
on time. The students devised four distinct steps for delivering
high-quality project presentations
as part of the process of ensuring high-quality project
presentation.
The steps are as follows:

4
Step One
Students were expected to prepare data. The preparation of
data was a vital
component of the project's overall success. At this point,
students were given the responsibility
of preparing their own data, following which they were divided
into groups based on the
information contained in their data forms. Stage one was
extremely important since it
necessitated the application of individual knowledge and skills
for the students. Many students
attempted to be critical in the application of their own expertise
in order to prepare data

throughout the stage one.
Step Second
Project allocation, the advanced groups that had been formed
were assigned a project to
work on. It was necessary for the groups to organize themselves
in order to work on the project.
It was envisaged that each group would have a group leader as
well as distinct positions inside
the group for the purpose of subdivision of work. The group
leaders were responsible for
ensuring that all proper procedures were followed within their
respective groups. In addition,
they were expected to submit the completed project to their
supervisor for review and approval.
The formation of separate groups was necessary in order to
ensure that the project was presented
in a professional manner.
Step Three
The students were required to produce a midterm presentation
for the client at the third
stage, which was called the midterm presentation. This stage
was critical in determining the

direction of the group's endeavor. The students were obliged to
present their project to the client,
after which the client would provide positive feedback on both
the project and the students'
presentation abilities. Additionally, the client was required to
either give a clear pass for the
continuation of the project or turn down the project and request
the students to participate in the
project from the beginning again. Following the presentation of
the project and the receipt of
feedback from the client, the group leaders were required to
deliver a final presentation to the
group.
5
Step Four
The final and most important stage is the final
presentation. At this point, the project's final

presentation was given to the audience. It was decided that the
projects that had passed would
have the opportunity to make a final presentation. This stage
signified the conclusion of the
project presentation and the awarding of final grades or an
award to the best project. The project
managers and students got heartfelt acclaim for the efforts they
put forth to see that the projects
were completed and delivered to the client on time. In addition,
the client praised their efforts
because they were collaborative.
About the Client
1Northumbria water is a water-based company to provides water
& sewerage services to
northeast locations in England. It was founded in 1989 with a
base in Durham city, England. It
occupies almost 9400 km2 urban area which contributes majorly
populated rural districts of
Durham and Northumberland.
About the project

The Northumbria Combined Sewer Overflow Power Generation
project was sponsored by
University of Northumbria water. The primary goal of the
client, to determine a range of power
requirements for the environmental remediation solutions that
could be implemented at each
CSO (Rizzo et al., 2020). Following the recommendations of
this project, in order to fulfill its
objectives of from various sources and Hydro power is a very
efficient source of renewable
energy.

Project Challenges
This document gives a report based on the project Combined
Sewer Overflow Power

Generation. Main goal of Combined Sewer Overflow is to
Determining a range of power
requirements for the environmental remediation solutions that
could be implemented at each
CSO (Botturi et al., 2020). Northumbrian Water has 1500 CSOs
within their sewer network.
Combined sewer networks transport sewerage from domestic
and industrial facilities as well as
rainwater from streets and pavements. During times of heavy
rain, when the flow capacity
within the sewer is likely to be exceeded, CSO’s allow the
discharge of raw sewerage into water
courses such as streams and rivers. CSO’s are effectively
overflow valves that avoid discharge
of raw sewerage in homes and streets. It was expected of the
students to produce plans and
schedules that might be employed in the project, taking into
consideration the features of the
project as well as the needs of the client. It was expected that in
the report, the students would
describe clear solutions for this project that were suited for
client needs, including the need for
early delivery of the project and the necessity for constant
client involvement in the project. A

students from Northumbria University people made
recommendations for the most appropriate
solutions to be used in the project and for the client
ratifications.

Project Team: Team Members and Responsible tasks
In total, there are three people on the project team.
ARATHI REDDY: Project Manager (PM),
Each member of the team was responsible for completing a
certain assignment. ARATHI
REDDY was to Plan and develop the project ideas, lead the
team, Monitor the project progress,
and Evaluate the project Performance.
OMER KHAN: Communication Lead, and
OMER KHAN was to develop the communication plans,
Implementing the work

strategies and Barrier between the client and team.
RANGA SAI: Resource Investigator.
RANGA SAI was to Exploring & Reporting Back on ideas,
develop the outside sources
and implementing the new sources.
My role in the project
I was hired as a project manager. My responsibilities included
Planning and developing
the project ideas, leading the team, Monitoring the project
progress, and Evaluating the project.
As a project manager, I make it a point to involve team
members in the completion of their tasks.
I was also required tomanage the production of the required
deliverables, planning and
monitoring the project, adopting any delegation and use of
project assurance roles within agreed
reporting structures and preparing and maintaining project,
stage and exception plans as required.
What I learnt from the project stages

Being a member of a student's team has provided me with
numerous opportunities to
learn about communication, leadership, and teamwork.
Throughout the course of the project, I
came to realize that communication is essential for any effective
collective effort. Because we
were not permitted to consult during the initial stage, it was a
little difficult for me. I took my
time to figure out what was needed to be accomplished. The
second step was a little less difficult
8
because we were working in groups and were permitted to
express our thoughts. I have come to
know that communication is really effective, especially when
working in a group. We were able
to create a suitable working environment because of effective
communication.
As previously noted, another thing I have learned is the
importance of leadership. During
the project group stages, we were given the opportunity to
select leaders for each group. The

leaders' role was to organize and ensure that high-quality work
was being done at the group and
individual levels of organization. It was necessary to maintain
steady leadership throughout the
stage group project in order for the project to be completed.
Many other groups failed to deliver
their project to the client as a result of inadequate leadership on
the part of the project team. As a
result, I have learned that effective leadership is essential for
every project's success.
Challenges faced when writing the report
Impact on Communication
Poor communication was one of the challenges that were
experienced during the course
of drafting this report. When it comes to teamwork,
coordination is not considered a separate
activity; rather, it is referred to as the context of group work in
some circles. Communication
should be maintained throughout the project, from the planning
stage to the control phase. The
absence of this function will cause the group's work to change
and become ineffective, and the

effect of the interaction between the positions of authority and
the work of the team on the
group's work will be diminished as well. Coordination kicks off
all actions in a team's work and
ensures that they are strong and successful in accomplishing the
group's goals. As a result, there
is greater harmony between individual efforts to attain group
objectives.
Conflict Resolution
Conflicts are reduced, disputes are resolved, time is spent,
delays are experienced, apathy
is experienced, and other organizational difficulties are
encountered. As a result, with the
assistance of communication, the group can reach its objectives
more quickly. Additionally,
networking activities aid in the improvement of relationships
inside the group. Team leaders
coordinate their efforts with the member, which aids in the
development of positive relationships
9

between the two of them (Locke et al., 2013). Coordination is
widely regarded as the essence of
cooperative endeavors. When it comes to achieving common
goals, it is necessary for a group's
many features and activities to be harmonized and coordinated.
Leaders are unable to bring
together the diverse components of a team into a cohesive whole
unless there is effective
communication amongst all members of the team.
Challenges faced when handling Combined Sewer Overflow
Power Generation project
The project presented a number of difficulties for me, including
the selection of team
roles and functions, communication, project document editing,
and final presentation, to name a
few examples. Because everyone is proficient in their respective
duties and obligations, I am
only experiencing a minor difficulty in assigning roles and
responsibilities to the team at this
moment. To get over this, we did a simple thing: we cut out the
forms in the group and collected
all of the ideas, following which we decided on the duties and

responsibilities of the group.
Communication is the most difficult obstacle in every project's
execution. Because we are all
unfamiliar with this type of culture, editing project
documentation presents a significant problem
during the semester of created practices. Initially, we were
unsure about how to format various
forms of writings in accordance with the style of the United
Kingdom. Everyone in the group, on
the other hand, was quite helpful and assisted one another in
preparing texts. Presentation is
another significant issue because, while we initially believe it
will be difficult, we eventually
provide an amazing presentation that incorporates all of the
client's features and benefits.
Professional & Personal Reflection on Combined Sewer
Overflow Power Generation
project
When it comes to project proposals, they are categorized as a
sort of language that is
frequently used to streamline the working ties that exist
between an institution and its external

partners, according to the International Standardization
Organization (Locke et al.,
2013).Whenever it comes to research frameworks, a project is
sometimes referred to as a first
phase because it is utilized to develop a project concept and its
outcomes, in addition to the
outcomes that the researcher aims to attain as a result of his or
her research program. As a
10
general rule, each form of development project should include a
list of all the tasks and activities
that will be involved in all of the work, as well as a description
of the project vision and a
description of the project's historical context.
Steps Used in the Combined Sewer Overflow Power Generation
project
An extensive series of steps were taken in order to Combined
Sewer Overflow Power
Generation project including the following:

various concepts in the project
success and criteria
step: Installation of the project.
In addition to project specifics such as the facility's name and
its title, a project overview,
a project deadline, and project communications involving
anyone who was involved in the
project as a whole were all included in the project details
section. This is critical because it
serves as the foundation for carrying out the complete research
proposal and obtaining the
resources necessary to carry out the research proposal activities
and activities related to the
research proposal. It was necessary to define the problem
category in order to identify a broad
issue that the project was attempting to address, as well as the

reasons why the issue was deemed
a problem and the reasons why it was necessary to fix the
problem in the first place.
In the overview section of the project, the goal linked with this
section was to explain the
many factors that drove the project and to indicate the stated
objectives (Springer, 2012). The
11
writing in this part is concise and extensive. Why and ‘what’,
‘how’, and the time that would be
spent on the project plan was well outlined. It is at this point
when the backdrop of the project is
explained. This included offering short sentences that helped
clarify the Project-related issue.
The current situation regarding the issue and the essential
reasons why the audience needs to care
about coming up with an effective set of answers was outlined
in full (Botturi et al., 2021). One
of the primary goals linked with this section was to provide
information on how to construct a

timeline for attaining the solution as well as information on the
resources available in other areas.
There was a list of all the deliverables that were expected to be
finished after the completion of
the full project, which was provided in relation to the project's
delivery schedule. There was a
guarantee that all deliveries would arrive at their designated
time.
It was determined that the project module phase corresponded to
the phase of developing
a specific plan for achieving the various types of objectives
identified in the project research.
This is frequently referred to as the first phase of a proposal
since it specifies a course of action
that has been identified to assist in providing a solution to the
problem and helps to ensure that
appropriate research has been conducted before making a choice
(Chen et al., 2019). During the
presentation, the approach that was taken was highlighted, and
the development of a goal-
oriented approach was discussed. This included putting together
some sort of project summary
consisting of a few phrases that demonstrated the broad type of

project design strategy used in
the project. This contains details on how the identified team
will be successfully formed, the
types of tools that will be used, and how the adjustments will be
taken into account during the
performance evaluation process (Ruppelt et al., 2020). This
demonstrates how the entire process
will be carried out as well as the seriousness of the research
proposal, since it frequently
describes the technique to be employed to ensure the effective
implementation of project
outcomes and delivery schedules.
Delivery Description and Success Conditions section assisted
with the presentation of a
picture of the numerous types of activities and Attributes linked
to delivery, as well as the main
approaches to comprehend how a project works and functions
well (Bonnel et al., 2014). Using
a functioning delivery date, as well as a description of what the
target project will produce and

12
what customers may expect from it as cloud computing systems
that will perform best without
generating inefficient general cloud computing systems, this has
been accomplished successfully.
A risk register, which includes a list of risk factors and
potential mitigation efforts, is
included in Step 7, Risk Analysis and Management. This section
includes an analysis of the
various types of risks and risks that may affect research, as well
as a risk register, which includes
a list of risk factors as well as potential mitigation efforts,
which must be used to combat the
various types of risks and risks that may affect research. Part of
Step 8, which specifies the
Schedules, was devoted to the division of labor and the
estimation of time frames, in addition to
the identification of all project deliverables. There was also a
presentation of the Project Plan,
which included the division of labor and time projections. A list
of all of the actions required for
this project is created, as well as an estimate of the number of
hours required to complete each of

them is provided. One of the primary goals linked with this
section was to provide information
on how to construct a timeline for attaining the solution as well
as information on the resources
available in other areas.
Finally, the installation section was the final stage of the
project's completion. It takes
place after ensuring that all of the steps have been implemented
and completed completely.
There was some reworking involved to make the Combined
Sewer Overflow Power Generation
projectmore interesting, thorough, and appealing. The project
also included soliciting any
relevant comments that may be available and ensuring that the
proposed concept is well-planned
and visually appealing. This is vital because it allows you to put
the finishing touches on the
entire research proposal and ensure that everything is in place,
in the proper order, and with a
thorough knowledge.
The goal for Combined Sewer Overflow Power Generation
project was to Review

methods of electrical power generation at a CSO location: light,
kinetic movement of sewerage,
and the project was to conduct research and develop extra
materials to supplement the already-
developed training program. Several diagrams were utilized in
this part, including Generation of
sewage power diagram and Hydro power and storage diagram
(Springer, 2012).
13
Future Focus
Generation of sewage power diagram represents a Hydro power
which a very efficient
source of renewable energy. Hydropower systems are very
efficient because of the density of
water, the force of gravity and the technological advantages of
today. These systems can cover
up to 90% of the energy of water into electric energy, which is
an astonishing number. Since

hydro power is fueled by water, it has the advantage of being
only used when needed, because it
is easy to control the storage and allowable flow of water into a
hydropower system.
14

Conclusion
Combined Sewer Overflow Power Generation project presents a
range of electric power
solutions including serving the function of a receiver and
collects the wastewater from the
primary treatment unit, allowing the collected wastewater to get
purified to some extent thus
allowing non-harmful water to infiltrate into the ground and
lastly helping in the recharge of
groundwater. Since hydro power is fueled by water, it has the
advantage of being only used when
needed, because it is easy to control the storage and allowable
flow of water into a hydropower
system. Hydro power has an advantage over wind power
because water is more dense than air, so
collecting the mechanical energy of wind requires a greater
force of wind to rotate the turbine
than it would for water in a hydropower system. I manage to
gain a great deal of knowledge and
experience. A number of sophisticated processes in the
Knowledge Base educate me how to cope
with various types of situations, as well as how to operate in a
difficult circumstance. I also

managed to get more insights on how to handle project majorly
in groups. Participating in groups
helped me to gain more courage and work perfectly in a group
setting.

Week 2 Assignment Positioning Statement
Start Assignment
Defining your Personal Brand in 3 steps (This is how I would do
the assignment)
1) Answer these questions
· What is the organization/club/employer you are a part of?
Sports Management program at Voorhees College
· Define three ways you influence, improve, or grow the
organization? Mastermind projects, develop goals, level playing
fields
· What attributes do you possess that benefits others? Futuristic
& Analytical (Strategic Thinking), Competitive (Influence)
Focus & Deliberate (Execution)
· How does it benefit others? My strategic thinking allows
others to explore the possibility of what could be as I analyze
all the factors that could affect that possibility. My competitive
nature encourages others to strive for the best while measuring
progress against that of other performances. My focus and
deliberate approach allow me to take serious care in making
decisions.
2) Create a Positioning Statement
· I help (organization/club/employer) to (three ways you
influence, improve, grow) by (attributes) that (benefit to
others).
Ex: "I help individuals and groups that require sports
management related services to mastermind projects, develop
goals, and accumulate the necessary equity to level the playing
field by my ability to strategically think about possibilities,

competitiveness to strive for the best, and ability to follow
through with plans with a focused and deliberate approach."
3) Think of two accomplishments in the last 6-12 months. Saved
money, mastermind a project for the campus fitness center
· What did you do well? Developed a plan, set
checkpoints/milestones, stayed diligent, and followed through
with everything that I planned to accomplish.
· How does it fit into your life goals? The money saved helps to
align me with my retirement saving goals, next home purchase,
children's savings, and miscellaneous. While the fitness center
project builds my resume which will position me to negotiate
more lucrative benefits by leveraging my value and learni ng
how to design a fitness center as an independent business
venture.
Finally, you should always have a "Why" and a "Purpose" for
what you are doing that links to a personal brand.
Ex: "My purpose is to serve as a mentor and mentoring is
simply sharing successful experiences without the pain of the
failures from gaining the experiences."
