Koshish India: Leading the Way in STP and ETP Wastewater Solutions Water is one of the most critical resources for life and industry. Yet, rapid urbanization, industrial growth, and increasing population have significantly increased wastewater generation. If untreated, this wastewater can pollute rivers, groundwater, and soil, posing serious environmental and health risks. To tackle this challenge, Sewage Treatment Plants (STP) and Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) play a pivotal role. They ensure wastewater is treated efficiently, making it safe for reuse or discharge. Koshish India offers advanced, customized STP and ETP solutions that combine efficiency, compliance, and sustainability. What is an STP (Sewage Treatment Plant)? A Sewage Treatment Plant is designed to treat domestic wastewater generated from homes, residential complexes, offices, hotels, and hospitals. This wastewater contains organic matter, pathogens, and suspended solids that can harm the environment if discharged untreated. STP Treatment Process Screening and Grit Removal: Large solids and debris are removed. Primary Sedimentation: Settles suspended solids and separates sludge. Secondary Biological Treatment: Microorganisms break down organic matter. Tertiary Treatment: Filtration, UV, or chlorination ensures clean water suitable for reuse. At Koshish India, our STP systems are energy-efficient, compact, and low-maintenance, meeting all CPCB and SPCB standards. What is an ETP (Effluent Treatment Plant)? An Effluent Treatment Plant treats industrial wastewater containing chemicals, oils, heavy metals, and other toxic contaminants. Each industry produces wastewater with unique properties, requiring specialized treatment. ETP Treatment Stages Collection & Screening: Removes solid impurities. Equalization & pH Adjustment: Ensures uniform flow and neutral pH. Chemical Treatment: Coagulation and flocculation remove chemical pollutants. Biological Treatment: Microorganisms degrade biodegradable waste. Filtration & Disinfection: Produces clean water ready for safe discharge or reuse. Koshish India’s ETP plants are designed to ensure compliance with environmental regulations while enabling industries to recycle water efficiently. STP vs. ETP – Key Differences Aspect STP (Sewage Treatment Plant) ETP (Effluent Treatment Plant) Source of Wastewater Domestic and municipal sewage Industrial effluent Type of Pollutants Organic and biodegradable Chemicals, heavy metals, oils Treatment Method Biological & physical Chemical, physical & biological End Use Flushing, gardening, landscaping Industrial reuse or safe discharge Both STPs and ETPs are essential for environmental protection, water recycling, and sustainability. Why STP and ETP Plants are Essential Environmental Protection: Prevents contamination of water bodies and soil. Water Reuse & Conservation: Treated water reduces dependency on freshwater. Regulatory Compliance: Meets CPCB and SPCB standards for safe wastew
