Best Practices<br />
Indian Wastewater Market continues to benefit from highly Innovative Indigenized Best<br />
Practices<br />
Indian Best Practices:<br />
Recycling<br />
Wastewater for<br />
Aquaculture<br />
Forestation on<br />
Wastewater Area<br />
Development of<br />
Wastewater<br />
Recycling and Reuse<br />
Recovery of metals<br />
from Industrial<br />
Wastewater<br />
Recovery of solvents<br />
from wastewater<br />
Indian urban water supply and wastewater management are in<br />
transition from unsustainable centralised model to a sustainable<br />
and rational decentralised one. Development of National level<br />
public awareness is getting generated through effective<br />
campaigns, including public meetings and student rallies. Also,<br />
citizens have been motivated to store and manage waste locally.<br />
India’s Waste Sector has developed various indigenous methods<br />
in the last few decades, which have made it extremely productive<br />
and efficient.<br />
Prominent Best Practices prevalent in this sector are as follows:<br />
Recycling of Wastewater: Wastewater has been recycled<br />
including Sewage effluent for Aquaculture<br />
Water Management at a Household and Residential<br />
layout-level: This was followed in Bangalore and involved<br />
roofing and plumbing practices, water efficiency and fixtures,<br />
rainwater harvesting, recharge wells and sumps, groundwater<br />
use and wastewater treatment, solid waste management,<br />
landscaping and behavioral changes<br />
Forestation on Wastewater Area: A village in Maharashtra<br />
used the route of planting trees to overcome the problem<br />
posed by open gutters.<br />
Development of Wastewater Lake into Recreational Area:<br />
In Orissa an amusement park was set up on an area that was<br />
previously flooded by wastewater. An Indo-Canadian Agency<br />
funded this project.<br />
Designing Flexible Wastewater Systems: These systems<br />
allow efficient and seamless usage of utilities during peak<br />
tourist loadings as well as “off-season”. Such initiates have<br />
been taken in various Indian cities.<br />
USAID<br />
Municipal Wastewater Recycling and Reuse: USAID offered<br />
technical assistance to the NMC and Mahagenco to design,<br />
develop, and implement highly innovative wastewater recycling<br />
and reuse project in Nagpur. The project was designed to<br />
develop large scale industrial applications for treated municipal<br />
wastewater. It allowed NMC to meet environmental compliance<br />
to treat municipal sewerage and Mahagenco to purchase the<br />
treated water for its power plant operations.<br />
