PAVITR

Potential and Validation of Sustainable Natural & Advance Technologies for Water & Wastewater Treatment, Monitoring and Safe Water Reuse in India.

PAVITR is a joint project of the European Union and the Department of Sciences & Technology of the Government of India. It contributes to solving water and sanitation problem. The project’s main aim is validate, deploy or develop cost-effective & sustainable solutions in the following fields:

• to tackle water challenges
• ensure the provision of safe water reuse
• rejuvenate water quality of rivers
• and restore ecosystems in India.

The project aims to achieve this by deploying and developing water and wastewater technologies and by using sensors for contaminants. But PAVITR goes beyond that: It also considers new strategic planning tools and creates a basis for financial, environmental, and institutional sustainability. PAVITR aims at developing and bringing to the market a cost-efficient, multi-barrier water management approach that can attract investors and funding agencies into the sector.
