Problem

The site lacked rainwater and wastewater management.

Solution

We provided an integrated water management solution, capturing rainwater and treating wastewater.

Rainwater Harvesting: We built Recharge Pits around dead borewells. The runoff from roads sloped towards the stormwater grates/channels are channelised to the recharge pits which have injection bores to replenish ground water aquifers.

The rainwater from the rooftops of the factory is channelized through a desilting chamber with a microfilter and then allowed to flow to a modular sump and stored. This water can be reused for secondary purposes in the factory including staff quarters and other utilities.

 

Wastewater Recycling: A PSTP designed for a capacity of 5000 litres a day is built. The sewage water from the staff quarters, administrative building and driver’s lounge is treated with 2 packaged sewage treatment plants of capacity 2KLD and 3KLD in situ. The treated water from the STP is then reused for gardening and other purposes.
