The India
Wastewater Treatment Plants Market
is anticipated to grow at a steady pace in
the forecast period, 2024-2028 and growing at a robust
CAGR in the forecast period. The need for advanced municipal water & sewage
treatment plants in the residential sector and the growing urban population are
projected to drive considerable growth in the India wastewater treatment plants
market. Through 2025, it is anticipated that the adoption of stringent
government restrictions, such as the zero liquid discharge law, would increase
demand for wastewater treatment facilities. Nevertheless, changing membrane
prices—the primary raw material for wastewater treatment plants—caused by
imports may impede the market's expansion in India.
According to a recent study from the Central
Pollution Control Board in March 2021, in India, the capacity for treating
water is now 27.3%, while the capacity for treating sewage is 18.6% (with an
additional 5.2% capacity being built). India's waste and sewage treatment
capacity is more than the 20% global average.
Furthermore, according to government
statistics, 62.5% of the wastewater in metropolitan India was not or was only
partially treated. The nation's problems with water pollution, conservation,
recycling, reuse, and recharge are made worse by the inadequate infrastructure
for wastewater treatment and poor operational maintenance.
As the nation sees a surge in private
investments and the government adopts new business models to entice remote
market participants in the sector and accelerate its expansion, the Indian
wastewater treatment plants market facilities are anticipated to see a boom in
the upcoming years. Also, implementing efficient water management measures can
help India achieve an additional 0.5% economic growth, according to the World
Bank. It is anticipated that this would cause the country's GDP to expand by 8%
annually.
Reuse of sewage treatment water helps to
boost the market across the country
Reusing treated sewage is a problem that
hasn't received much attention in the policy-making of many state governments.
According to the study of the Central Public Health and Environmental
Engineering Organization, treated sewage water may be repurposed for
horticulture, irrigation, washing tasks (road, cars, and trains),
fire-fighting, industrial cooling, toilet flushing, and gardening. The highest
percentage of treated sewage is reused in Haryana (80%), followed by Puducherry
(55%), Delhi (50%) Chandigarh (35%), Tamil Nadu (25%), Madhya Pradesh (20%),
Andhra Pradesh (3%). The Delhi government has set a goal to raise its reuse
from 12.5% to 60%. Reusing treated sewage can help cut down on the amount of
water that is needed from surface and groundwater resources as well as aquatic
sources including rivers, ponds, and lakes. According to the CPCB research,
reducing raw water usage help in protecting natural water resources.

Adopting a more sustainable strategy
through 3Rs-related activities (Reduce-Recycle-Reuse)
Water recycling is the practise of
reusing cleansed wastewater for beneficial purposes such as toilet flushing,
industrial processes, watering gardens and farms, and replenishing groundwater
basins. Water recycling saves resources and cash. The water quality standards
for the planned reuse can be satisfied through wastewater treatment. Every
industry values water as a valuable resource. Due to the stringent rules, there
isn't much water accessible for industrial and municipal usage. As wastewater
reuse is crucial, the 3Rs assist any business in becoming more sustainable.
Government Initiatives
Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act of 1974 (amended 1988): The Central and State Pollution
Control Boards (CPCB and SPCBs) were created as a result of this Act to offer
direction, monitor compliance with, and enforce regulations controlling the
treatment and disposal of sewage and industrial effluent. All Indian science,
technology, and research parks must adhere to the standards established by
the CPCB.
Environment (Protection) Act of 1986: The
STPs' discharge criteria were governed by this Act. It sets restrictions on the
number of different pollutants that can be released into specific environmental
zones (land, surface water bodies, marine coastal areas, etc.)
Ganga Action Plan (GAP-I 1985, GAP-II
1993) and National River Conservation Plan: Under GAP-I and GAP-II, the
cleaning of the Ganga River and its two principal tributaries, the Yamuna and
Gomti, began. It was expanded to cover other rivers as part of the 1995
National River Conservation Plan. Under GAP, sewage treatment capacity of
1098.31 MLD was developed (Dutta, 2020). The steps taken to mitigate pollution
include I intercepting and rerouting sewage lines for treatment, (ii) creating
STPs, (iii) putting in affordable bathrooms, (iv) developing riverbank
properties, and (v) promoting public involvement, education, and capacity
building.
National Urban Sanitation Policy (2008):
This policy has resulted in municipal governments being in control of behavior
modification, full sanitation, and totally secure rubbish disposal. It sees
cities carrying out long-term plans, prioritising certain areas, and
implementing municipal sanitation programmes concurrently while placing a heavy
focus on obtaining the participation of all city stakeholders. State
governments are responsible for establishing state urban sanitation policies,
under which the cities may develop their sanitation programmes.
National Plan for Conservation of
Aquatic Ecosystems (NPCA) (2015): The NPCA aims to provide a framework for the
preservation and sustainable management of wetlands, with the following goals:
(i) creating policy guidelines; (ii) assisting in the development of a
national inventory; (iii) supporting, promoting, and strengthening the
preservation of wetlands; and (iv) enhancing the capacity of wetlands managers
and stakeholders.
Other essential flagship national programs
launched by the Government of India: The Namami Gange project was launched in
2015. The government has authorised 161 sewage management projects under the
Namami Gange Program, totalling USD3 billion, for the building and
restoration of 5501 MLD sewage treatment capacity as well as the installation
of 5,134 km of sewerage network. 92 of them adding and renovating 1,643 MLD of
STP capacity and building a 4,156 km sewage network—have been completed (PIB,
2022). It also includes sectoral programs that aim to improve both sewered and
unsewered sanitation, such as the Swachh Bharat (Clean India) Mission
2014-2019, the AMRUT Mission 2015-2023, and the Smart City Project 2017-2023.
