In the present study, the main aim is to identify an appropriate RWH structure for a large scale automobile industry in India. The first step in designing any RWH structure is to determine the volume of water to be stored. In this case, it was achieved using four methods namely mass balance, Ripple diagram, analytical and sequent peak algorithm methods.

Because of a GIS work, Culver City, California has up-to-date printed citywide sewer GIS map book and online sewer access system to share data with public.

Heat exchangers and condensers are subject to fouling, corrosion, biofouling and scaling due to the quality of cooling water and operating conditions prevailing at the power stations. Scaling or fouling in the condensers result in loss of vacuum, increase in heat rate and consequently loss in generation, whereas corrosion results in damage to condenser tubes and damage to condenser tubes and damage to boiler tubes. Recently NETRA investigated and implemented remedial measures in respect of severe scaling and fouling of a power plant having two units of 110 MW each.

Thermax executed the largest augmentation job in India, by doubling the capacity of existing 68.1 MLD plant to 136.2 MLD at no extra space.

The water supply to the Latur city was earlier managed by Latur Municipal Corporation (LMC) and had faced major problems in terms of supplying water to its citizens due to source limitations and very poor water supply accounting. From LMC, the water management function was transferred to Maharashtra Jeevan Pradhikaran (MJP) to infuse operational improvements and finance for various capital schemes.

Following the commissioning of Tertiary treatment plant at IOCL, Haldia, Doshion Limited has changed the outlook of the petrochem industry towards waste water management. One of its kind in the world, this plant recycles waste water to feed high pressure boiler thus nullifying the myth that waste can't be as good as fresh. Doshion Veolia executed terminal tertiary treatment plant using DMF, ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis and mixed bed deionization.
