Pond renovation project Punjab
Village ponds in Punjab were traditionally used for rainwater storage and groundwater recharging, but many have become choked and unsanitary. The Department of Water Supply & Sanitation has renovated ponds using waste stabilization techniques to treat greywater, dividing ponds into sedimentation, facultative, and maturation compartments. This natural treatment process improves sanitation and creates an additional storage space for rainwater harvesting while requiring low costs and no electricity. Testing shows the treated water meets standards for reuse in irrigation. The pond renovation project has been appreciated by officials and helps solve sanitation issues in villages.
Clean wateraccess photo_essay_swash+
This document discusses water access issues faced by schools in Kenya and the impact of a project called SWASH+ that aimed to improve water, sanitation, and hygiene in schools. It notes that before the project, schools relied on muddy creeks and rivers for water that were far away, especially in dry seasons. The SWASH+ project provided schools with boreholes and rainwater harvesting to improve access. A study found this reduced student diarrhea and illness. However, water also needs to be consistently treated and provided to be effective, which schools struggled with due to costs and priorities. Maintaining infrastructure was also a challenge. Reliable access to water, treatment, and resources are all important for student health and attendance.

Waterworks - The Bengaluru story
1. The document summarizes various water management projects in Bengaluru that aim to restore and recharge groundwater levels through sustainable practices.
2. These projects include reviving lakes like Jakkur Lake through treatment facilities, community-based initiatives like Rainbow Drive that implement rainwater harvesting and wastewater recycling, and self-sufficient buildings like The Abode and Classic Orchards that adopt rooftop harvesting and closed-loop water systems.
3. A key aspect across these projects is establishing closed-loop water systems where water intake is given back to ensure sustainability, as well as community participation for successful long-term management of resources.
How to dig a borewell.pdf
A borewell is dug by installing a casing pipe from the surface down to the hard rock layer. A submersible pump is placed below the lowest water-bearing fracture to pump water up through the delivery pipe. Regular inspection and maintenance of borewells is important, including metering water usage. If a borewell runs dry, options include camera inspection, hydrofracturing to increase water flow, or longer term groundwater recharge solutions.
Borewell_Poster.pdf
Borewells are man-made wells dug deep into the ground to extract water from confined aquifers located underground. They involve drilling deep holes that tap into fractured rock layers where water has accumulated over many years. Borewells have become the most common source of water in urban India, with over 30 million constructed. They initially replaced traditional open wells in the 1970s when new drilling technology arrived in India. Borewells draw water from much deeper underground compared to open wells, accessing pressurized water trapped within rock fractures rather than shallow, unconfined aquifers.

Case study - Deccan International School.pdf
Deccan International School has successfully tackled its flooding issue by using recharge wells to send the excess water into the ground. This has also added the benefit of the revival of all its borewells, eliminating the use of tankers for the last 3 years.
This effort can be furthered by setting up rooftop rainwater harvesting for all its buildings. This will help reduce purification and pumping costs for the school and also help revive the open well for long-term water security. Revival of this large old well also has the added benefit of preserving our heritage artefacts. Since this is a school, this and the rest of the water management system could be great learning for the protection and optimal usage of our natural resources for its students.
Case study - SV Symphony Apartments.pdf
SV Symphony apartment complex had been facing water scarcity since its inception. They do not have a BWSSB Cauvery connection and were heavily dependent on tanker water which was very expensive. The proactive owners however tried to ease their water woes by implementing rooftop rainwater harvesting and direct borewell recharge. This has resulted in the complex consuming less tanker water while increasing its borewell yield thereby aiding its water security.
This case study looks at how these interventions were undertaken and their effects on the water sustainability of the apartment complex.

They also lack water security as they are completely at the mercy of tanker water providers. In an effort to secure their future water needs, the hotel has turned to rainwater harvesting as a sustainable solution to this problem. This case study looks at how and to what extent they have been successful in this endeavour.

Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
