Though Industry is a minor consumer

Deep Concerns

First to suffer in the event of

shortage

Water use in Indian Industry


Water Saving Potential

Manufacturing Industry : 20 to

40%

Buildings : 20 to

50%


Paper Industry in India

Average Specific Water

Consumption Figures 1994 – 95 : 300 cubic meter/ ton

2008 – 09 : 100 cubic meter/ ton

Nearly 66 % Reduction


Many Companies achieved Zero Water Discharge

Very tough to do in Industry

Measure environmental performance & commitment

Measure of water management practises

( Godrej Valia, Orchid Chemicals, Vizag Steel, ITC units)


Issues Faced

Water Tariff – Too Low Dis- incentive for water projects

Cost of recycling more than fresh water cost Fresh Water varies from Rs 10 to 20 per cubic Mts

Treated water may vary Rs 25 to 50 per cubic Mts

Many small & medium size Industries No treatment of waste water

Major source of pollution

Need to improve resource efficiency rather than end of pipeline technologies


Wastewater Generation & Treatment

Industrial wastewater 13000 MLD generated by 1,35,000 polluting

industries

60% is treated (large & medium industries)

Domestic wastewater (Municipal

sewerage) 23000 MLD generated (300 Class I Cities

and 345 Class II towns)

Only 6000 MLD is treated

Less than 25%Source: CPCB


Green Building Movement in India

20 June 09, Chennai


Green Building Movement

In 2001, 1 Green

Building 20,000 sq. ft.

368 Green Buildings, 247 Million sq. ft.

Every Green Building Saves 20 to 40% on

Water

Three categories of awards ‘Within the fence’

To recognize the water

management initiatives

within the industry

‘Beyond the fence’

Recognize the leadership

role in implementing water

and watershed management

projects with the

involvement of public /

private agencies and

schools in Hyderabad

Objective : to create

awareness on water

conservation through the

program

Completed 20 schools

Over 1000 students

participated in the

program

Indian Business Alliance on Water (IBAW)

Formed by WEF & CII- Godrej GBC in

2006

Key objective Facilitating water management through

Public Private community Partnerships

To Sum Up

Potential for Water savings – High ( 20 to 40 Ex: Investment Potential in Paper Industry 100

mUSD)

Industry beginning to take leadership role – Beyond fence Ex: Water Harvesting Projects

Scope 500 companies , each project 1 m USD, Potential 500 m USD

Unique Models – IBAW – To enable PPCP

Key Issue – Water Tariff Need appropriate pricing to make recycling attractive
