As Bangalore's population and area grows, more and more people are sharing the same water resources. As a result, conserving water is becoming increasingly important.
Saving water is one of the most effective ways to make the best use of our existing water resources and help protect the environment. It also saves money.
Across Bangalore ,daily we use enough water around our homes enough to cater every
one's requirement in few more new layouts. With a little effort, we can all ease the load on our
existing water supplies and resources while saving money at the same time.
Saving water is also important for reducing the pressure on our sewerage treatment systems
and waterways. Every day BWSSB treats up to approximately 418 million litres of wastewater or
sewage (This include 60 MLD +10 MLD tertiary treatment capacity). That is the wastewater that
comes from sinks, showers, toilets, and backyard drains is almost equal to three stages of
Cauvery projects.
This wastewater is treated at one of 6 sewerage treatment plants. Treated wastewater is
then discharged to waterways, or recycled for re-use as bio-solids. |
