1. Great to note Ms Smitha Singhal has evolved a 1L litres plant at Delhi.

   Similarly in 2002 , a Urban drain based STP was evolved of 20 kl perday processed for hotticulture needs at Vasant Vihar S Delhi off Outer Ring Road near Malai Mandir.

   This plant has been upscaled and now processes nearly 80 to 90 kl per day of Urban drain.. locally the drain is called nallah .

   It meets needs of nearly 15 to 20 acres of parks and lawns Etc.

   This has caused both tangible and kn tangible benefits..

   Well wishes.
