Introduction

Promotion of industrial activity is widely seen as a desirable way to achieve sustainable development; for that result, however, their pollution problems, among others, must be overcome. To deal with the effluent from small, medium and large enterprises the concept of Common Effluent Treatment Plan (CETP) was introduced witha hope that not only it would help the industries in pollution abatement but also as a step towards the clean environment.

The concept of CETP is aimed to manage water pollution caused by the heterogeneous nature of the effluent from different industries. With the growing pace of industrialization these CETPs are unable to cater to the need of the industrial clusters, which has resulted in bypassing the treatment and directly discharging the untreated effluent in water bodies. The CETPs also faced many operational and institutional problems as many participating industries started withdrawing from the scheme.

Againt this background CII along with GIZ is organizing a "One day National workshop on Common Effluent Treatment Plants" to have a focused discussion on the key issues, challenges and opportunities in Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs) for waste water treatment in India.

Objective

The objective is to gather key inputs and suggestions on developing a successful working model for CETP in India from Government, technology providers, industry, infrastructure developers, investors and consultants.

Benefits

• Excellent platform for information exchange and dissemination on various issues of CEPTs
• First hand knowledge on latest concepts and best practices
• Platform for networking with stakeholders
• Explore untapped business potential in the sector
