Recycling Wastewater |
Increased environmental sensitivity and the nationwide pressure on water in India have spurred our drive to reduce raw water consumption and enhance wastewater recycling. During 2009-10, 28% of our requirement was met through recycled water. |
|
Adding more volume to our wastewater recycling initiative, a new wastewater recycling facility was commissioned at FTO - 3 at an investment of INR 200 million. |
|
We have also set up five Zero Liquid Discharge Plants (ZLDP) since 2002 where effluent is treated and the treated water is productively used as cooling tower make-up, boiler feed water and/or for gardening. Another ZLDP is currently being commissioned at FTO-3. Moreover, this year, the effluent treatment plant at CTO - 1 was upgraded by adding an RO based polishing plant for non-process effluents. |
