This has resulted in reducing our dependence on municipal water supplies by 3% on our plant. Wastewater management Our Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) system at Bidar facility is at the forefront of our wastewater management strategy i.e., to minimize the discharge of effluents by maximizing the recovery and reuse of water and treating the remaining waste to eliminate liquid discharge entirely. Through a series of Multiple Effect Evaporator (MEE), Agitated Thin Film Drier (ATFD), and Reverse Osmosis (RO) plant, we ensure that the effluents are converted into recyclable water, reducing the environmental load and conserving precious resources. Effluent per year (KL) Effluent disposal (%) • The rainwater drain network system is cleaned at regular intervals to effectively collect rainwater in the storage tank • Installation of a pre-treatment system for treating collected rainwater. The water is pre-treated, then filtered with a cartridge filter before being transported to the RO plant for further treatment • Revamping the reverse osmosis plant for further treatment of pre-treated rainwater • Setting up a dedicated storage tank in the existing ETP area to collect the pre-treated rainwater before being used by utilities. Every drop counts Increased our capability to collect, treat and re-use rainwater from 25% to 33% Savings Rs 3.35 lakhs at our Bidar plant Collected and treated A total of 4039 KL in the last 3 years Treatment & reuse of rainwater (KL) Year Generation Recycled FY 20 75808 27400 FY 21 78229 26517 FY 22 50191 25018 FY 23 59782 27034 Year FY 20 FY 21 FY 22 FY 23 For third party usage 6 6 17 20 In-house treatment 10 9 15 12 Common Effluent Treatment Plant (CETP) 21 21 22 23 Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) 63 64 46 45 FY 23 FY 2 FY 1
