Over the last decade, the city has worked aggressively to build systems to treat all the sewage it generates. Following a government directive, larger apartment complexes now have to set up Sewage Treatment Plants to treat and re-use their own waste water. We visited two such plants to find out if this approach is easing Bengaluru's water woes.

Sewage should be used for construction purposes, permissible industrial use, for watering public green spaces, or used as feed for further purification and making it more pure, etc. The sewage treatment industry was developing well in 2011 but I don't know about it now. Looks like this eco method really wins over electrically operated plants.
"World mastery" happened, since then.
All style( "branding"), and no substance( "ground actions").
one off the best solution for waste water ....... viewers kindly whatsup around the world.... please save planet earth.........
Tharun and Team is on a mission to restore every of drop of water that can be reused. The EcoSTP solution is real and is already in use. I am not sure whether it can be used to treat the "rajkaluve" or drain water entering into lakes of Bengaluru. If that happens, most of the Bengaluru lakes will be host pristine water and every corner of Bengaluru can become Ooty or Kodai. Ground water recharge will be another plus. Keep it up ECOSTP team. Thank you for doing this!!
Brilliant effort by Bengaluru City! Thank you for the great reporting!
Bengaluru is becoming Shangri-la where intelligent, wise and hardworking people come to live
Much better sound quality this time.
pretty interesting, but how excactly does the eco STP clear the eventual accumulation of waste filtrate in all those tanks? there will definitely require a cleanup right? i mean, even water filters in homes need to be changed after some time, should be even more relevant for sewage filters....
That is exactly what i was thinking !!
Ok, centralised may not keep pace with the burgeoning population, but why not a cluster model? Say, STPs for a particular area or sector? Wouldn't that be more cost effective? And the excess water can be managed in a better manner as well!
Informative video
Very good information sir. Tq for sharing. I have put it on WhatsApp groups
Thank you sir! For more information check www.ecostp.com or pls connect with us at team@ecostp.com
Yes in Karnataka all lakes are filled in no water crisis by treated water underground water restored by rainharvest
I use waste water for flushing , and double use the water or re use water for waste toilet flushing. All should do it in their wash room
Time will tell and we will overcome
This is a stupid government policy to decentralize STP without providing people a list of licensed vendors who can install these small domestic STPs. What does the government expect? People should just become overnight inventors?
I do admire the residents in this video going through all this trouble to treat their own sewage but for the majority they would just let it go untreated
What about sludge generation?
I am a water professional, who is specialising in Water Treatment for a Municipality in a GCC Country.
In my opinion using eco-stp is a stupid idea and you will never be able to remove E-Collie and F-Collies using this method other than using Chemicals.
Water treatment is a very complex process and it should not be treated like a toy, since water recycling is future.
The government should connect the housing complex with sewage pipe lines/lifting stations and treat it effectively in the Central STP.
How do they test for e coli? It can be really dangerous for babies and elderly people, causing organ failure and even death. Can they do strip tests?
@@NettiieB I don't know how they test e-collie, in our company our lab technician does microbiology test for the water on daily basis
I think you as a professional has limitations. You should be exploring and aiding those trying. Use your professional skills to improve these system for people do8ng their best to find solutions than throw spanners in the works. In my entrepreneurs head the answer is never impossible but how to make it possible
desalination and water recycling is the way forward !!
It is werid that you guys focused so hard on Nice tutorialm saying "No homo" or that what he wrote softs gay. I an co one he just

Its a waste of effort.. Here in US...its done ...stored and then discharged into sea... Better to conserve water rather than invest in these technologies
Yuk
Indeed.
But..
