Improving Water, Safe Guarding Life Issues related to wastewater management has been surfacing over digital and print media, social sites irrespective of facts that all of us have knowledge on what and why. The only question is when to step up? With about 80% of diseases humans need to deal with are water-borne. Hospitals and healthcare units deal with more than 80 percent water borne disease cases. Such level of extremism forces people to buy clean water with higher prices. All these water bodies need to be free of regular contaminants, making them suitable for further utilization, especially drinking. Pathogens, organic and inorganic matter, suspended solids, dissolved gases, paint emulsions, toxic chemicals like pesticides, bio-solids, and many more unwanted substances interfere with the quality and need treatment to make it reusable. With over 130 Crore population, and three fifth of water volume deemed toxic with zero usability, India is on the edge of facing the worst

For any developing nation, Agriculture has a major stand in its economy. It manages the food security for the ever increasing population and provides a source of hand to mouth for a number of people based in rural areas. Irrigation practices has changed over the years with change in farming technologies, selected outputs and input materials depending upon soil conditions and climate but still there are places which follow age old conventional style of farming which not only reduces the effective use of water but also limits the available resources. Today’s farming style has changed from what can be grown to what is economical to grow. Catastrophes like water scarcity, soil infertility, irregular rainfall opens the gate to drought, monetary loss, price inflation, lesser production and farmer misery. These problems have been rising up recently in huge numbers and we don’t have a concrete solution as of now. What we have are technologies by which their adversity can be some

What are fomites?   Inanimate objects that form a secondary route of exposure for person-to-person transmissions. Any object that we may come in contact with can serve as fomites, doorknobs, elevator buttons, hand rails, phones, cab doors, keyboards, toys, even clothing. Respiratory droplets are propelled into the air by sneezing and coughing. The aerosol generated by coughing and sneezing contain droplets of moisture of varying sizes laden with pathogens. The largest droplets are more likely to fall to the floor. Medium sized ones are more likely to enter the nasal passages of someone nearby, causing infection. The moisture in the smallest particles tends to evaporate rapidly, resulting in the formation of so-called droplet nuclei, which are light and can remain airborne for longer periods. These can travel from room to room or through ventilation ducts; owing to their small size and weight, their movement is mostly dictated by air currents, and, if inhaled, they can flow with

Anything that has mass and occupies space is subjected to microbial metabolism. It’s natural but creates havoc when this activity leads to undesirable contamination of the same. Many industrial and commercial applications are prone to being a habitat of micro-organisms owing to their varied operating conditions, which becomes a matter of concern when it bears severe financial losses to the industries. Introduction of bacteria, algae, fungi in a regular or closed system, disturbing their natural operations is how a microbial contamination occurs. Mass dependency on artificial resources is the primary reason for it but also its usage cannot be avoided. So, a striking a balance between combating contaminants and minimizing harmful byproducts is important for application sustainability. Scientists studied the deactivating effects that combination of Silver and Hydrogen Peroxide manifests and the major revelation of such combined disinfectant was about the toxicity of its components,

Mandatory treatment of wastewater is the need of the hour to get rid of harmful pollutants excreted by domestic, commercial, agricultural or industrial applications. Wastewater Treatment rendering otherwise unsuitable water for domestic, industrial or commercial utilizations. The sources which can be anything from mildly polluted storm water run-off to toxic wastewater from chemical, pharmaceutical, and industries. Pathogens, organic and inorganic matter, suspended particulate matter, dissolved gases, paint emulsions, toxic chemicals like pesticides, bio-solids, and many more unwanted substances interfere with the quality and need treatment to make it reusable. Domestic wastewater contains large suspended wastes like rags, single-use plastics, smaller colloids like papers, peels and other minute pollutants resulting from human wastes, laundry wash offs, kitchen applications. Commercial wastewater constitutes pollutants from commercial properties like offices, hospitals,

Scale and Corrosion is considered a curse to all industries, be it large or small. Due to their subjection to water systems, heavy metal installations, industries face a huge annual loss due to these complications as they have direct implications on the production rate and outcome. Formation of scales cause severe metal lining problems, decrease in fluid flow rate, pitting and perforation, pore throats, wear and tear, machinery failure and primarily first stage of corrosion (in most cases). Antiscalant dosing is preferred over other conventional treatments in counteracting scaling and corrosion. The primary reason being its simplicity and effectiveness over particulate matter deposition and cost efficiency. Most antiscalant chemicals work on adsorption mechanism, where they get adhered to the surface, preventing any interaction between inorganic salts and surface lining, ensuring lesser accumulation, lesser precipitation in the feeding solution, and ensuring prolonged

Interest on chemical behavior of Nano silver has substantially grown over the years, mainly for its pursuit as an effective antimicrobial agent. Research states that silver has a relatively wider range of antibacterial and anti-fungal attributes than other metals. And, hydrogen peroxide is a deemed eco-friendly sanitizer, owing to its oxidizing attribute, aiding in the elimination of harmful microorganisms wherever used. It ruptures the total cell structure on contact, without leaving behind any traces for replication. Hydrogen Peroxide and silver manifest excellent antimicrobial properties, their chemical synergy adds a lot of value as a prompt yet effective disinfecting agent with limited toxicity . Nano Silver Hydrogen Peroxide , from its name can be understood as a combination of oxidizing hydrogen peroxide stabilized with Nano silver. Upon application, it helps out in eliminating harmful microorganisms across multiple media without any residual toxicity. Hydrogen Pero
