About Biomimicry
Biomimicry Technologies Private Limited has developed an innovative Water Filtration System with Biodegradable Bead-Based Treatment, specifically designed to treat municipal wastewater and repurpose it for sustainable uses such as public park irrigation and toilet flushing. This eco-friendly technology reflects a commitment to addressing urban wastewater challenges with a focus on pollutant degradation, water reuse, and resource conservation.
The system stands out for its ability to process large volumes of wastewater, offering a practical solution to urban water management problems. By employing biodegradable bead-based treatment, it aligns with sustainable development goals, ensuring minimal environmental impact.
Biodegradable bead-based wastewater treatment
- Treatment Capacity: 20,000 liters per day.
- Modular structure allows seamless integration into urban infrastructure.
- Stage 1 : Collection of raw sewage directly from the sewer line.
- Stage 2 : Initial filtration using strainers to remove larger particles.
- Stage 3 : Advanced filtration and biodegradation using biodegradable beads, resulting in treated water ready for reuse.
- Reduction of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) to acceptable levels.
- Elimination of suspended solids and significant improvement in water clarity and turbidity.
- Parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity, and chemical composition are assessed using standardized techniques (Richards, 1954; APHA, 1998).
- BOD and COD are calculated using Winkler titration and Open Reflux Method, respectively.
- Testing includes sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, carbonate, and bicarbonate concentrations.
