Sewage collection and its effective treatment continues to be a key area of concern. For decades, this has been a neglected area. Collection and
treatment infrastructure capacity addition has not kept pace with the population growth. Against a requirement of 45,000 mld, the present capacity
is just about 12,985 mld. Over 70 per cent of the sewage generated in India is discharged untreated.
Over the last few years, the government, particularly at the central level, has taken some policy, regulatory and financial initiatives. Under the
JNNURM, around 35 sewerage projects involving an investment of Rs 23 billion have been completed and another 87 projects worth Rs 135
billion are under implementation. Attempts have also been made at the state level to expand sewerage infrastructure through various governmentfunded projects and schemes.
The scope of private sector participation has expanded from stand-alone O&M contracts to design, construction and long-term O&M of sewage
treatment infrastructure. Recycling and reuse of wastewater is gaining more attention. Energy-producing sewage treatment projects are slowly
gaining acceptance.
Importantly, the new government has also promised continued financial support as part of three new initiatives - the development of 100 smart
cities, rejuvenation of heritage cities and renewal of 500 urban habitations. It has also identified 118 towns for extending sewerage infrastructure
coverage as part of the National Mission for Clean Ganga.
Stressed freshwater availability is also driving industrial consumers like the power, oil and gas and steel sectors to treat and reuse effluents. The
market for treatment of industrial water, both fresh and waste, is expected to grow at more than 10 per cent over the next few years.
Despite these initiatives, progress has been limited. This is primarily because of the financial position of ULBs, poor project structuring, absence
of up-to-date information, lack of managerial and technical capacity at ULBs, regulatory delays, and financing issues.
The growing urban population, depleting water resources and the consequent focus on securing alternative resources (treated wastewater), the
increasing emphasis on the conservation of water bodies, a focus on recycling and reuse, and the growing water contamination problem will
continue to drive sector needs and expansion. There will be many business opportunities for developers, contractors and technology providers.
The mission of this conference is to examine the state of the sewerage system in India, analyse key trends and developments, highlight recent
government initiatives and discuss key sector challenges. The conference will also showcase noteworthy projects, best practices and most
promising technologies.
