Questions
Frequently asked questions.
Is this technology proven?
Yes. It is at ready level 7 of 9, which means: tested in the field. Tested in a leather unit.
What does it cost to run?
About about INR 48 per 1,000 litres. The exact figure depends on your water and the size of the plant. We confirm it after testing a sample.
Can we try it on our own water first?
Yes. We test a sample in our NABL-accredited lab and, where it helps, run a small trial on your site before you invest in a full plant.
Do you supply and install it?
Yes. We design, supply, install and start up the system, train your staff, and our lab checks the treated water.
