Water quality and wastewater management vision - A presentation - Central Pollution Control Board (2012 -2017)

This presentation by the Central Pollution and Control Board (CPCB) provides information on the water quality and waste water management vision plan over the time line of 2012 to 2017 and is divided into the following sections:

I] Water quality monitoring

• Water as a precious and a scarce resource
• Annual water requirement for different uses
• Major water quality issues
• Objective of water quality in riverine systems
• Water quality monitoring network (NWMP)
• Strengthening the water quality monitoring network
• Identification of polluted river stretches
• Statewise list of polluted stretches

II] Status of groundwater contamination

• Groundwater resources
• Urban scenario
• Groundwater quality assessment
• Groundwater quality monitoring network
• Groundwater quality hotspots
• Districts affected by salinity in groundwater
• Districts affected by chloride in groundwater
• Districts affected by fluoride in groundwater
• Districts having arsenicin groundwater in different states of India
• Districts showing localised occurance of nitrate in groundwater in different states of India

III] Wastewater management

• Urbanisation and wastewater management
• Wastewater generation and treatment
• Decadal Trend of water supply and wastewater generation and treatment in Class I Cities and Class II towns
• Sewage generation and treatment capacity in metropolitan cities
• Sewage generation and treatment capacity in class 1 cities
• Sewage generation and treatment capacity in class II towns
• Sewage generation and treatment capacity in Delhi
• Sewage generation and treatment capacity in Ganga Basin
• Future scenario
• Projected population and respective wastewater generation
• Experience of River Action Plan
• Performance of STPs

IV] CPCB initiatives and R& D schemes

• In situ treatment of domestic wastewater employing microbial technology
• Elimination of E coli and other coliform bacteria through bacteriophages
• Wastewater management in tanneries and lyophilization of hides and skins
• Rejuvenation of river sahibi to ensure minimum flow in Yamuna in the lean period
