Webinar Water and Wastewater

India occupies 2.45 percent of the world’s land area, represents 17 percent of the world population and 15 percent of livestock, whereas it has only 4 percent of the water resources of the world. 

India is the 2nd largest water consumer in the world. The country needs around 740 billion cubic meters of water per year to meet the demand. In India, factors such as urbanisation, rapid growth, climate change, and depletion of resources continues to drive the need for investments in clean technologies. Further, the water demand is expected to surpass supply within the next 20-25 years and this is leading to strong growth opportunities for the water and wastewater treatment sector.  Innovative water treatment technology in the sector are in huge demand. The investment opportunities in the water sector are forecasted to increase to $130 billion by 2030.

Over  the  last  decade,  wastewater  treatment  and  its  reuse  has  become a  priority in  India, with policies  and approaches in development as well as implementation in several Indian states.

As per  NITI Aayog CEO, India's wastewater treatment plants market stood at USD 2.4 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 4.3 billion by 2025 owing to increasing demand for municipal water as well as sewage water treatment plants across the country.
