The company has achieved this through recycle and reuse of wastewater, reducing water consumption by process changes, improving water efficiency in existing processes, implementing zero discharge effluent and reverse osmosis projects, reducing soft water consumption, eliminating water softener usage and using a new liquid surface conditioner.

 This has been carried out through strengthening its water monitoring system by installation of water meters at source points, recycling of effluent of reject pit discharge to abandoned mine pit, zero effluent discharge by providing sedimentation tanks and re-utilisation of effluent. Apart from water, work was also done on reducing Greenhouse gas emissions.

This work that included domestic waste-water recycling, reduction in river water usage, and by close circuiting of process water.won the 

It has achieved this through the use of dry low NOx burners, air cooled condensers, rainwater harvesting through building a pond, improving recovery in its reverse osmosis water treatment process and by increasing the cycle of concentration in its auxiliary cooling tower.

This is a detailed introductory presentation about ground water and hydrogeology, and helps to understand the basics of ground water & aquifers. The branch of geology dealing with surface & subsurface water is known as groundwater. The science of hydrogeology is defined as hydrology with emphasis on geology.

The complete title reads as “The Pilgrim’s Progress from This World to That Which Is to Come”. I see the version two of this epic work by John Bunyan being written in our times, for the journey which the modern world has undertaken to achieve “development” at all costs. It won’t be an allegory this time. It would be a factual story of how we plundered the planet of its resources, to realize a life which could no longer be sustained within the replenishing levels of the natural processes.
