Water Treatment Plant: IIT Gandhinagar Saves 3 Lakh Litres, Daily

Home Blog Water Treatment Plant: IIT Gandhinagar Saves 3 Lakh Litres, Daily

With many areas and regions in Gujarat facing a water scarcity, IIT Gandhinagar’s innovative approach towards a sustainable water conversion is sure to serve as a great example towards beating water scarcity, for many.

IIT Gandhinagar in 2015 adapted to a sustainable idea of making rainwater consumable for all the 2000 people residing, working, and studying on the campus. They could successfully achieve it through an efficient sewage water treatment plant that produces about 3 lakh litre of water daily. This helps greatly as their overall consumption is about 5 lakh litres.

According to an article, the director of IIT Gandhinagar had the idea of installing a sewage water plant when the design of their facility was in its initial stages. Their plant harvests rainwater and makes it consumable. The water collected from rain is treated and collected in an overhead tank.

This is indeed a great step considering the water scarcity in many states across India, including metropolitans like Mumbai and Delhi. It can also help in educating the younger generation in sustainable living and water conversion.

IIT Gandhinagar’s sewage water treatment plant is spread across, in an area of 1000 square meters and has a canna plant installed in the system. It is the easiest plant available in Ahmedabad. The canna plant works in three stages:

  • Settler
  • Anaerobic billy reactor bacteria
  • Sucking the filth through the roots of the canna plant

Not only can the water treated be used for horticulture but also has no foul smell around the plant.

There are many businesses, manufacturing plants, societies and villages that are adopting a sustainable living through sewage water treatment plants. But unlike IIT Gandhinagar’s overhead tank, they prefer an underground water treatment system called the MBBR sewage treatment plant. MBBR stands for Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor. This plant is highly space efficient as it is underground and it helps to remove chemical, physical and biological impurities. It serves great for small to medium scale industries and societies.
