IISc-Developed Zero Bacteria Technology for STPs in Apartments
IISc-Developed Zero Bacteria Technology for STPs in Apartments A Game-Changer for Water Quality The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) has developed an advanced "Zero Bacteria Technology" (ZBT) to improve water quality in Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) , especially in apartment complexes. This innovation ensures cleaner, bacteria-free treated water , making it safer for reuse. What is Zero Bacteria Technology (ZBT)? A new water purification technique designed to eliminate harmful bacteria in treated sewage water. Uses a chemical-free process , making it environmentally friendly. Developed by scientists at IISc , with applications in residential STPs and industrial wastewater management . Why is ZBT Important for Apartments? Many apartment complexes have their own Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) . Traditional STPs do not fully remove bacteria , leading to health risks when water is reused for gardening, flushing, or groundwater recharge. ZBT ensures bacteria-free treated wa...
