India-EU: Creating Market Alliances<br />

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 />

enter Indian wastewater<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 />
