Unlocking the Power of Modular Systems in Water Treatment

Contamination remains one of the most pressing issues in water treatment. Pollutants such as heavy metals, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and microplastics pose significant health risks. Furthermore, pathogens, including bacteria and viruses can enter water sources and lead to outbreaks of waterborne diseases. Population growth and industrialization further stress water resources, highlighting the need for innovative solutions to meet rising demand. The water treatment industry has embraced several transformative technologies to combat contamination effectively and enhance treatment efficiency. These include AI-driven monitoring, advanced filtration systems, smart infrastructure, membrane filtration, bio & carbon-based…

Beyond Storage: How Water Tanks Can Improve Public Health and Ensure Hygiene

Today, India bears a significant national health burden due to waterborne illnesses. Water contamination and poor water storage is a direct public health concern. Contaminated water is a primary cause of waterborne diseases like cholera, typhoid, and dysentery, which affect large sections of the population each year. Diarrhoea is the third most common cause of childhood mortality in India, claiming nearly 13% of lives in children under five years of age. Basic sanitation & hygiene and clean drinking water are fundamental to human development, health and well-being and absence of…

Smart Wastewater Pumping: Engineering a Resilient and Sustainable Future

Home to nearly one-fifth of the global population, India today stands as one of the fastest-growing economies and a nation shaping the future of technology, infrastructure, and sustainable development. Yet, alongside this remarkable progress lies a critical challenge, water stress. The country is experiencing rapid depletion of freshwater sources, increasing contamination of rivers and groundwater, and a surge in wastewater generation from domestic, industrial, and agricultural activities. Without timely intervention, the imbalance between demand and availability could widen further, threatening long-term water security and public health. While metropolitan regions continue…

Microplastic Contamination in Water Resources of India

Water

Microplastics in water resources are an emerging global concern because of their persistence, mobility, and potential ecological and human health risks. India’s rivers, lakes, aquifers, and coasts are increasingly burdened by microplastics. Over the past decade, evidence from field surveys and laboratory analyses has confirmed that microplastics (MPs) are now present across the country’s freshwater and marine systems, with hotspots near dense populations and industrial hubs.   What are Microplastics? Microplastics are plastic particles smaller than 5 mm. They can be:• Primary microplastics – manufactured small particles (e.g., cosmetic microbeads, industrial…

Urban Sustainability Through Blue Green Infrastructure

Urban-Sustainability

The escalating challenges posed by climate change, urbanization, and environmental degradation have been posing a grave risk towards urban sustainability. The rise in extreme weather events, such as heavy rainfall and storms, has intensified the risk of urban flooding. Cities are experiencing higher temperatures due to the absorption of heat by concrete and asphalt. Irregularities in rain fall have been causing drought in many parts of the world every year. The traditional grey infrastructure like concrete drains and storm water systems is often rigid and unable to adapt to fluctuating…

Sustainable Industrial Wastewater Management

SUSTAINABLE-INDUSTRIAL-WASTEWATER-MANAGEMENT

India’s rapid population growth and urbanization have significantly increased consumption patterns, leading to rapid industrialization. This industrial expansion has driven economic growth, job creation, and infrastructure development, positioning India as a global manufacturing and economic hub. However, it has also led to a sharp rise in industrial wastewater generation, posing a severe threat to India’s already stressed water resources. India is home to nearly 18% of the global population but has access to only 4% of the world’s freshwater resources, making it one of the most water-stressed nations. With per…

Tech’s Role in resolving Water Crisis

Techs-Role-In-Resolving-Water-Crisis

By Kanishka Chatterjee, Director & Head, The/Nudge Prize India grew from merely 51 million tons (Mt) of food grain production in 1950/51 to over 314 Mt in 2022- a sixfold increase in production. What led to this remarkable outcome was the shift to science-led agricultural development, planner’s vigour and the dedicated effort of millions of farmers. This transformed India from an acutely food-scarce and food shortage nation to a food surplus and food exporting country. However, these accomplishments came at a price- trading in water security, a resource even more…
