The inaugural edition of BHAGEERATH AWARDS has received an overwhelming response. After a preliminary round of screening 11 of the case studies were evaluated by a 3-member panel of judges comprising 2 eminent academicians who have done outstanding work in water and wastewater treatment and a senior manager from Water Pollution Abatement Engineering - Maharashtra Pollution Control Board.
The original mandate for the judges was to pick the best 4 case studies. But it was a difficult choice and with very little separating some of them, we have decided to invite the following 6 case studies for a final presentation at AQUA2009.
SELECTED CASES FOR FINAL PRESENTATION AT GOA (in alphabetic order)
1) GE Water UF-RO-MB Plant at M/S EID Parry India Lt, Pettaivathalai, Trichy, Tamil Nadu
2) RCF Innovative Waste Water Treatment and Reuse Options
3) Reliance Industries, Vadodara Development and commercialization of Cost-effective process for Defluoridation of Petrochemical waste.
4) Sudarshan Chemicals (Innovative treatment) – Recovery of Lead Actetate from a wastewater stream
5) Thirumalai Chemicals Zero-Discharge and Innovative Treatment process – Organic Recycle
6) Sterilte Ltd (Vedanta Group ) Tuticurin Innovative Treatment process – Sodium Sulfide Plant
The case submitted by M/s Syngenta from Goa needs a special mention. The judges were impressed by the case study from Syngenta. Because of its promising new technology Syngenta has been specially invited to make a presentation. But since it is as yet unproven, it will not compete for the awards.
The three BHAGEERATH AWARDS would be declared on 5th July in the concluding session of AQUA2009. May the best team win!
Keep looking for more information on the AQUA2009 event on this thread
