Smart water meters are a transformative technology driving behavioral change for sustainable water use by providing detailed, real-time consumption data that increases user awareness and encourages efficient water habits. These meters oer transparency through continuous feedback, alerting users of excessive use or leaks, which prompts immediate corrective actions and fosters long-term water conservation habits. The ability to set usage goals, benchmark against peers, receive personalized recommendations, and access financial incentives further motivates households and businesses to reduce water wastage. Utility providers benefit from increased accountability, improved operational efficiency, and community…

INTRODUCTION : In 2016, Enviro Infra Engineering Limited (EIEL) successfully commissioned a 21MLD Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) in Panipat, Haryana. Executed on a complete EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) basis- including detailed design, civil works, equipment supply, commissioning and ongoing operations and maintenance. This project underscores Enviro’s capability to deliver advanced, efficient and environmentally sustainable wastewater treatment solutions. The Panipat CETP plays a pivotal role in treating industrial wastewater from multiple textile dyeing and processing units in the area, an area known for its high water consumption and complex…
Read MoreMicroplastic Contamination in Water Resources of India
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…

Mumbai, October 1, 2025 — Somaiya Vidyavihar University (SVU) has launched two rural water projects under its 2024–25 REACH Fellowship, a field-based initiative that places students in underserved communities to lead scientific and sustainable development work. Anchored by the University’s Centre for Achieving Sustainable Climate Action, Development and Engagement (CASCADE) and institutionalised under the Somaiya Institute for Research and Consultancy (SIRAC), the 2024–25 cycle is focused on one urgent theme: Water Stewardship. REACH, short for Rural Engagement for Action through Community-led Holistic Development, is designed to bridge academic research with…
Read MoreCool Under Pressure: Winning the War on Corrosion in Data Center Cooling Systems
With the unprecedented rise in cloud-computing and AI, the need for data centers and supercomputers is booming. This astronomical output of artificial brain activity demands enormous amounts of power that quickly convert to heat as these mega-computers process billions of “thoughts” per second. The natural consequence is the proliferation of giant cooling towers alongside new data centers, with backup chillers kicking in for hot summer months and going idle during cold weather. Whatever the season, taking proactive steps to fight corrosion is critical to maintaining a healthy system long-term. Cortec®…
Read MorePioneering Report Sets the Course for Nature-positive Engineering in Coastal and Marine Environments
A global engineering coalition has issued an urgent call to action to solve the climate crisis through ecology-inclusive engineering frameworks. The Foresight of Nature-Positive Engineering, a new report from Lloyd’s Register Foundation in partnership with the International Coalition for Sustainable Infrastructure (ICSI), sets out the blueprint for nature-positive engineering (NPE) in ports, offshore renewable energy, and coastal protection. Biodiversity is declining faster than at any time in human history, with extinction rates 100 to 1,000 times higher than the past ten million years. While crucial to development, the built environment…

Read MoreSafeguarding Water Quality: The Technologies Protecting Our Freshwater Future
As global demand for freshwater intensifies, the conversation must evolve beyond quantity to address an equally urgent crisis: water quality. More than half of the world’s food production could be jeopardised by freshwater shortages within the next quarter-century. But contamination may prove just as perilous. The UK’s Environment Agency reported 3.6 million hours of raw sewage discharge into rivers in 2024 alone. Poor water quality accelerates ecosystem decline, imperilling biodiversity, public health, and food security. Emerging technologies for monitoring water quality Traditionally, water quality assessment has relied on periodic sampling…
