Indian Institute of Petroleum & Energy (IIPE), Visakhapatnam, in association with other research institutions, have found an effective eco-friendly solution ‘Surface Modification Technique of Membrane’.
It aims to resolve the problems associated with water treatment at various levels, particularly for muddy river water.
This technique is eco-friendly and it utilises non-toxic gases.
It reduces the need for harsh chemicals or solvents in surface modification processes, minimising environmental impact
Muddy water reduces oxygen levels, blocks sunlight and carries pollutants, leading to habitat degradation, species displacement and waterborne diseases.
