Transforming wastewater management for a sustainable future under the National Water Mission

About TADOX

A sustainable solution for wastewater treatment

  • The National Water Mission is committed to addressing India's water crisis by implementing innovative and sustainable solutions. As part of this mission, TERI's Advanced Oxidation Technology (TADOX) emerges as a cutting-edge, eco-friendly treatment for municipal sludge, highly polluted industrial wastewater, and open drains. The technology has been selected for the Namami Gange project and offers an efficient, green, and cost-effective alternative to conventional treatment methods, ensuring zero liquid discharge (ZLD) and enhancing water reusability by up to 90%.

Technical Details

TERI Advanced Oxidation Technology (TADOX)

  • Treatment Process: Utilizes UV-Photocatalysis-based Advanced Oxidation for the oxidative degradation and mineralization of pollutants.
  • Application: Effective for the treatment of municipal sludge, industrial wastewater, and polluted open drains.
  • Compliance: Meets CPCB discharge norms for COD, BOD, POP, etc., and adheres to Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) regulations.

Key Features

  • Eco-Friendly: The process is free from chemicals, sludge, and secondary pollution, reducing biofouling and improving the longevity of RO membranes.
  • High Efficiency: Achieves a hydraulic retention time that is both low and efficient, reducing CAPEX and OPEX by 30-40%.
  • Modular and Retrofittable: The compact design makes TADOX easy to integrate into existing Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) and Effluent Treatment Plants (ETPs).

Advantages

  • Sustainability: Reduces energy consumption while enhancing water reusability by 85-90%, making it the ideal choice for industries facing freshwater scarcity.
  • Low Operational Cost: Compared to traditional methods, TADOX brings down operational expenditure, while requiring minimal space.

Join the Drive

for ensuring Water Security to all

"TADOX is a potential game changer for ensuring water security aiming at resource & energy efficiency, sludge & cost reduction, point source pollution abatement in river cleaning programs like 'Namami Gange', surface water rejuvenation and various Water Conservation and Water Reuse Programs of Govt. of India"


Dr. Nupur Bahadur Associate Director, TERI

TADOX provides a low CAPEX & OPEX solution to treating municipal sewage and industrial waste water upto 95% efficiency, a significant step towards achieving ZLD. Use of nano-technology ensures minimal chemical involvement, thereby eliminating secondary pollution. Its compact set up allows for a decentralised water treatment process.
