摘要

The 150 KLD CETP project has been assigned to NITRA for implementation by Ministry of Textiles through Handicrafts Mega Cluster Mission (HMCM). NITRA designed a modern treatment scheme integrated with water reclamation for the CETP. The project includes 6 months post-commissioning hand-holding support to be provided by NITRA. The Brief outline/ benefits of the project are : 1. Capacity enhancement: effluent treatment capacity for the block printing cluster in Ajrakhpur will increase from present level of 50 KLD to 200 KLD 2. Environment protection: will restrict open discharge of effluent - curtail environmental hazards 3. Ground water saving : use of lesser water as treated water is recyclable for use in washing & other operations 4. Energy conservation : reduction in ground water lifting through pumping 5. Investment opportunity : increase in cluster production / more units to set up in the area - attract investment & buyers 6. Financial and economical gain : increase in turnover, creation of employment opportunities & overall business growth.
