Case 1:
Managing extreme topography and
climate
One of the
most popular pilgrimage sites
located in North India was
facing acute problem of Sewage
handling. Due to difficult
terrain, water availability was
a major problem.
The major deterrents for
providing effective solutions
were: turbulent climatic
conditions, temperature
variation, huge geographical
spread (approximately 12
kilometers), hilly terrain,
fluctuating sewage loads and
high seasonal foot-fall (more
than 7 millions pilgrims visited
in 2007).
Feasibility study of the
entire area for sewage generated
at different locations was done
by ACME Enviro to:
- Provide sewage treatment for
entire area
- Estimate the water available
for reuse after treatment
- Determining the capacities of
STP at different locations for
best optimization
ACME Enviro has placed
various plants to address the
issues which could not be
addressed by the existing
centralized plant. The plants
are successfully working since
October 2007 and have helped the
management in providing hygienic
environment to all the pilgrims.

Case 2:
Creating commercial value
through water management
One of the leading real
estate developers with pan India
operations wanted to provide its
work force with hutments,
primary education for their kids
along with the primary medical
facilities. Once the entire area
was constructed, the critical
issue of sewage handling &
hygiene for the residents
surfaced. Existing solutions
were either too large for the
space available or too expensive
to be deployed in the worker’s
colony.
The major deterrents for
providing the effective
solutions were: absence of
sewage lines in the area, heavy
requirement of water for
domestic and landscaping uses,
high BOD & COD loads. In
absence of any effective
solution, tankers were being
used for the disposal of sewage.
Every day approximately 60
tankers were deployed to tackle
the situation leading to high
cost implications.
ACME Enviro studied the
situation and proposed to deploy
an economically viable solution.
Through its proposed solutions,
ACME Enviro has successfully
addressed the issue.
The customer was benefited
by:
- Considerably lower sewage
handling cost
- Abundant availability of water
for secondary usage
- Solution for treated water
reuse for construction purpose
- Adherence to CPCB guidelines
for treatment
- Increasing the aesthetics of
the locality while having
hygienic sorroundings
