QUESTION
Low volumes of waste water in a eye hospital in Karnataka : Seeking cost effective treatment solutions

We are an eye hospital that generates very little bio medical waste. All our solid waste is handled by a common facility and is licenced by KSPCB. However,  the board now wants house keeping waste water, ie water used for washing clothes etc on hospital premises to be treated before discharge.

We are small and investments of even a few lakhs is beyond us. What would be an ideal solution? We generate less than 100KL /day even accounting for toilets etc. Kindly advice.
