 Technology Profile

Title:

High Flow Rate Fluoride and Iron Removal Plant

Value Proposition:

Can be deployed in fluoride and iron affected regions of India like UP, Assam and Jharkhand.

Summary Application:
  • An initiative towards solving dual contaminants problem in ground water (F- as well as Fe3+)
  • An integrated adsorbent based water purification system for effective removal of fluoride as well as iron in an efficient manner from contaminated water bodies.
  • Three stage purification process to purify water as per WHO limit (1.5 ppm for fluoride and 0.3 ppm for iron)
  • High flow rate (10,000 litres/h) integrated purification system.
  • Sustainability towards healthy livelihood generation.
  • Selective backwash without dismantling any part of the plant.
Advantages:

The technology is a major thrust towards Atma Nirbhar Bharat Abhiyan. The technology will help in catalysing employment generation opportunities for the youth.
