Wastewater Management in India<br />
GOI led Wastewater Management initiatives and increased private participation fuelling<br />
sustained growth<br />
100% of the respondents<br />
feel that wastewater<br />
sector in India should<br />
double in the next 4-5<br />
years<br />
93% of European<br />
respondents intend to<br />

sector in the next 2-3<br />
years<br />
Government related<br />
projects contribute over<br />
50% of revenues in this<br />
market, while the private<br />
sector contributes the<br />
rest. However, the private<br />
market is highly<br />
fragmented and<br />
unorganised.<br />
33% of respondents feel<br />
that procurement practices<br />
in India favour domestic<br />
companies over overseas<br />
companies<br />
While India is relatively rich in water resources, untreated<br />
domestic sewage, industrial effluents and runoffs from chemical<br />
intensive agricultural farms are the main contributors to<br />
widespread pollution of surface and groundwater sources.<br />
Wastewater Management in India has become an extremely<br />
important area of focus due to increasing health awareness and<br />
population pressure. The water and wastewater treatment<br />
Industry in India is well diversified and has made rapid strides in<br />
technological capabilities both on its own and through strategic<br />
partnerships with overseas firms. Wastewater sector has been<br />
witnessing major growth in the last decade due to increasing<br />
government support and private participation. India's wastewater<br />
market is expected to grow at a rate of 15-20%. Techniques<br />
such as watershed management, rainwater harvesting,<br />
desalination, filtration, river-interlinking, effluent treatment and<br />
sewage treatment are finding huge importance in major cities,<br />
which are the major contributors to water pollution in India.<br />
Global Water companies have established a presence in India<br />
across 20 cities, with some 70 projects started or underway,<br />
worth several billion dollars. Large global and Indian players have<br />
operations in India that include: Veolia Water, Suez de<br />
Lyonnaise (Degremont) and VA Tech Wabag, Nalco and GE<br />
Betz-Dearborn.<br />
