India is gifted with few of the world’s most prestigious Rivers naming them as Yamuna and Ganga. Both of
them are heavily gifted with minerals and great source of livelihood. But According to the CSE(Centre of Sciences
and Engineering ),around 80% of Yamuna’s Pollution is due to raw sewage . Ganga is considered to be the most
polluted river in India approximately 1 billion litres of raw untreated sewage is dumped in ganga regularly. Ganga
contains 60,000 faecal coli form bacteria per 100ml, which is threat to not just humans but also to the river itself. In
short our rivers are on point of DEATH. Hence there is Project which is based on the idea of goals of sustainable
practices. Taking into the considerations of the pollution level in water bodies in order to rejuvenate and give rivers
back their life. So, I have made a structure good enough to reduce the amount of pollutant in water by 50% within
very less time. It will not need any out source for energy as it being self sufficient it drives its energy from solar panels
spread over it. Through the basic ways of making water pollutant free this structure can either be installed on an
existing canal, small river tributaries. It will not only improve the quality of river water but all the aspects related to it.
Like vegetation around, air pollution, soil pollution, improving ecological balance and recharging ground water. It is
low cost eco friendly structure and considering the present scenario the immediate need of the environment. We have
always cleaned water in sewage treatment plant where the cleaner potable water goes for human use and same semi
polluted water to the water bodies, here we are trying to return the cleaner water to the river back in order to
regenerate its property to clean itself. We can either make the whole new structure or it can be installed over the older
canals and most importantly near the source of the pollution. The structure and the procedure tend to clean the
suspended particle and toxic waste and improve the overall ecosystem.
