Application/uses:
- Rapid industrialization and improper management of the wastes generated by the society leads to scarcity of drinking water resources.
- Approximately 61,754 million litres per day (MLD) effluent water is produced in foremost metropolitans in India.
- The sewage management facility is only of ~22,963 MLD (approximately 37% of industrial effluents) and the remaining is disposed of untreated (CPCB-2015).
- Emphasis will be given to develop a simple, low cost, eco-friendly, waste water treatment technology by using inexpensive and naturally abundant R&D modified materials in the filtration unit which will be easy to handle.
Salient Technical Competing Features:
- Chemically modified naturally abundant adsorbents have been used;
- Flow rate ~ 1000 L/ Hour ( it can be scaled up)
- Cost Of Treated Water ~ 5 paisa / L of treated water
- Dosing Pump, UV & Ozonator act as disinfectants.
- Back wash followed by rinsing method enhances the adsorbents life time.
- Layman’s prototype: No trained personnel is required to operate the treatment plant
