STP

Boson Whitewater has teamed up with Biome Environmental Trust to launch India’s first indirect potable water reuse project in Devanahalli, near Bengaluru. This innovative initiative converts STP-treated water into high-quality drinking water through managed aquifer recharge, enhancing water availability for the local community.

Mansi Jain, a graduate of environmental economics from Stanford University and her father Rajesh Jain, a product of IIT-Delhi, founded their startup Digital Paani to help industries and residential societies treat their wastewater more efficiently and at a lower cost.

This bio-mimicked Sewage Treatment Plant by ECOSTP runs on zero power, requires very low maintenance and most importantly it’s running cost is 85 per cent less.

Three years ago the Nagpur Municipal Corporation began treating and reusing 130 million litres per day (MLD). Today, it is on the cusp of treating 480 out of the total 525 MLD the city generates.

The brainchild of Vikas Brahmavar, the company believes in keeping the water as natural as possible with all non-desirable properties removed or reduced to desirable levels depending on the application or requirement.

The plant, which boasts a processing capacity of 60 MLD (million litre per day), promises to cut down on the amount of sewage that makes its way to the city's water bodies.
