INTRODUCTION

Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB), a partner institution in the on-going

collaborative project entitled “Capacity Building in Sustainability and Environmental

Management” (CapSEM) - which is funded by Erasmus+ Programme of the European

Union; organized a two-day international capacity building programme entitled:

“Enhancement of Environmental Sustainability: The New Horizon of Circular Economy &

Organizational Improvement”. This programme was designed and delivered in

association with Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, Norway,

IN+ Center for Innovation, Technology and Policy Research, Instituto Superior Técnico,

University of Lisbon, Lisbon, Portugal, Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai,

Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu and Kathmandu University, Kathmandu, Nepal. This

two-day international capacity building programme was conducted on the campus of

IITB for the selected key industry personnel, environmental regulators, government

administrators, international experts as well as consulting engineers engaged in real-life

projects (designing and implementation) from India.

The CapSEM project is designed to contribute in achieving global frameworks for

sustainable development, including the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the

UNFCCC Climate Agreement and help to combat climate change and global poverty

from a transregional perspective. This project desires to forge ahead with a multi-actor

collaborative partnerships aimed at the increased educational capacity and

sustainability knowledge around the Globe.

THE DESIGN AND CONTENTS OF THE PROGRAMME

The two-day international capacity building programme was inaugurated at the Victor

Menezes Convention Centre in Powai, a Suburb of the City of the Mumbai, at the hands

of Dr. P. Anbalagan (Member Secretary of Maharashtra Pollution Control Board,

Mumbai), Prof. Dr. Ing. Annik Magerholm Fet (Department of Industrial Economics and

Technology Management, Norwegian University of Science and Technology,

perspective.

ARTICULATION OF THE STAKEHOLDER PERSPECTIVE

The stakeholder perspective was articulated by conducting group discussion among the

four break-away groups consisting of nearly 15 participants each. Each group elected

two representatives for making presentations at the plenary for the benefit of the entire

audience. The participants articulated their group‟s opinion (in a format prescribed to

them) at the end of one-hour group discussion in the respective break-away groups.

Representatives from each group making presentations

The two designated representatives from each group presented the drivers and

obstacles for application of the so-called “eco-friendly technologies and waste

minimization practices in industries and municipalities in India” at the plenary. The

highlights of the conclusions articulated by the four groups, as presented by their

representatives at the plenary, have been summarized as follows:

Strategies for Industry:

Drivers Obstacles

The demands from consumers, investors

and various stakeholders are different.

Hence, minimize the waste generation

which ultimately reduces the operating

cost to company (otherwise used for

waste treatment). Resource recovery

from waste can lead to reduced cost of

raw materials or be an additional source of

income. Looking at the waste as a

resource leads the industry towards

sustainability.

No or very little incentives are given by the

government. Even if they are available, it

is difficult to obtain them. Lack of

incentives is an obstacle. By providing

incentives, it can act as driver towards

waste minimization or adopting eco-

friendly techniques. People are not

reliable on the newer technologies due to

fear of technical failure. Additionally,

adapting to new technology would require

trained manpower, new setup, land etc.

CETP not working or closed by the

government. The competition between

similar industries for the demonstration of

technology leads to image building among

stakeholder.

It becomes unaffordable to provide low

cost products while abiding with the

stringent environmental standards which

require costly treatment technologies.

Man power is required for operation and

maintenance of installed facility. Also,

cost increases with treatment process.

The detailed cost analysis data is not

available.

Customer demands certain environmental

standards to be met (certification).

Decision of the process pathway is made

while putting up an industry and least

thought is given to waste management or

treatment. When the problem arises, it

becomes difficult to make changes in an

already working plant. Up-gradation of

existing systems as demanded by

stringent standards is a challenge with

limited land.

Page 8: report on Capacity building Workshop - WordPress.com€¦ · The CapSEM project is designed to contribute in achieving global frameworks for sustainable development, including

12 NOVEMBER, 2017, PROF SHYAM R ASOLEKAR 8

Drivers Obstacles

Stringent environmental standards are

given by the regulatory framework. Each

industry follows these government

regulations and compliance.

Implementation of laws is not strict and

the penalties are affordable as compared

to other countries where the owner of the

company is jailed and not the operator in

case of a breach. There is a

communication gap between industry and

regulators. Environmental awareness at

all levels from decision makers to plant

operators should be developed. Lack of

awareness exists with respect to risks,

benefits, social, environmental and

economic impacts. Public participation in

purchasing eco-friendly products and

minimizing waste to conserve natural

resources versus culture of use and throw

and not in my backyard. The way citizen‟s

act can be a driver or obstacle.

New concept of industrial ecosystems

coming up with potential use of waste

from one industry as a resource in other

industry.

Sufficient market needs to be made

available for recycled products which

should lead to profitable recovery.

Strategies for Municipality:

Drivers Obstacles

Reduction in use of water and using

appropriate technologies which further this

cause will lead to reduced water bills

(along with resource conservation). Water

bills will be reduced if grey water is

recycled in a decentralized manner.

People will not contaminate surface

waters if they are taught that it comes

Lack of awareness among the community

and society‟s attitude. The cost of

resources in developing countries is very

low which does not generate enough

funds for treatment after use. For a

private player, the profits may be much

less in implementing eco-friendly

technology as compared to a conventional

Page 9: report on Capacity building Workshop - WordPress.com€¦ · The CapSEM project is designed to contribute in achieving global frameworks for sustainable development, including

12 NOVEMBER, 2017, PROF SHYAM R ASOLEKAR 9

Drivers Obstacles

back to them which lead to diseases. They

will then try to not pollute the water and

get good quality water.

treatment technology. Long-term health

impacts are more harmful rather than short-

term impacts. Also, there is a mismatch

between regulations and ground reality

due to theft and leakage in old pipes,

improperly engineered supply and

sewerage systems. Additionally, delay in

completing projects increases the cost of

projects. Furthermore, the cost of

restoring degraded natural systems is very

high.

People won‟t throw garbage on the roads

to get clean surroundings which are

aesthetically pleasing and disease free

which will lead to improved health

conditions and increase cost of property.

Furthermore, clean and well maintained

cities attract businesses and tourists.

Compliance to environmental standards

leads to adaptation to permissible limits.

Aesthetics or cultural beliefs hinder the

setting up of treatment plants in the cities

or in/near residential areas. Monitoring is

not done properly. There exists a lack of

public participation and coordination.

Existing scarce nature of resources

demands better management at various

stages of its use phase. The incentives

should be given in order to encourage the

community to participate.

The regulating authorities have limited

organizational man power which leads

more time for the various types of

clearance required from different

authorities for implementation. Large area

of land requirement increases the financial

burden on the projects. Social

acceptance is less as everyone thinks

neighborhood should accept the

technology.

Demand from the public and NGOs is

rising day by day as the environmental

awareness is increasing. Life cycle cost is

reduced by implementing eco-friendly

technologies. Being committed to

protecting natural habitats and reducing

In order to understand the clearer picture

of the problem, significant statistical data

is required which is lacking at most of the

sites. Lack of skilled labors causes the

failure of the treatment system. The

clarity is missing in the standards and

Drivers Obstacles

impact of urbanization over existing

ecosystems, these low cost technologies

seems to better as they are simple to

operate methods and reduces skilled

labors. Useful end products are obtained

such as biogas etc. Moreover, they are

highly reliable and flexible and therefore,

can be adopted with more efficiency.

Cradle to cradle approach can lead to

improved resource consumption.

THE FIELD VISIT TO THE PILOT-SCALE CONSTRUCTED WETLAND

The field visit to pilot-scale Constructed Wetland (CW) at IIT Bombay Campus was

arranged during the evening of the first day of workshop. The participants enjoyed the

beautiful green campus and the scenic beauty of the Powai Lake while walking to the

treatment facility (Research Station) situated on the edge of the Lake at nearly 1.5 km

distance.

The pilot-scale CW facility has dimensions of 13 m length, 3 m width and 0.6 m depth.

The Canna indica plants are used for the vegetation over the media (approximately 450

square feet plan area, nearly 1,000 Canna indica plants). This treatment facility was

commissioned in November 2013.

The facility is situated adjoining the sewage pumping station - which receives the

wastewater of the entire IITB campus and pumps it to the underground trunk-sewer

outside the property of IITB. The pilot-scale CW facility is fed through the tapping on

the pressurized wastewater pipeline (rising main) which is pumping to the trunk-sewer.

In the pilot-scale CW, the inlet wastewater is maintained few inches below the surface

of the media and thereby the problems of odour, mosquitoes and other vectors are

nearly eliminated.

POSTER SESSION

The posters describing the results from the on-going research projects at IITB were

displayed in the foyer at the venue (Victor Menezes Convention Centre on IITB

Campus) of the two-day international capacity building programme by the researchers

participating from the Centre for Environmental Science and Engineering in the

programme.

The topics related to circular economy and sustainable development were presented in

the posters installed at the display. For example, the findings from the on-going

research and development activities at IITB in the Research Group of Prof Asolekar

included strategies for catalysing rural development and women empowerment through

implementing eco-centric technologies aimed at gainful utilization of treated domestic

wastewaters, empowerment of leprosy patients through implementing eco-centric

technology aimed at gainful recycling of treated sewages, recycling of treated sewages

at pilgrimage places, innovative management of asbestos bearing hazardous wastes

and disposal of old stockpile of dumped municipal solid wastes through the innovative

approach of landfill mining for recovery of energy from combustible fractions of the

wastes and preparing construction materials by using reclaimed inerts.

SUGGESTIONS FROM THE PARTICIPANTS ON FUTURE CAPACITY BUILDING WORKSHOP

Each participant in the two-day international capacity building programme evaluated the

presentations made during the programme by the experts drawn from the academia,

government and industry. The participants were given the prescribed tabular format for

recording their ratings of each presentation in every technical session of the two-day

programme. Accordingly, the anonymous evaluation forms were collected at the end of

the programme and reviewed.

Page 14: report on Capacity building Workshop - WordPress.com€¦ · The CapSEM project is designed to contribute in achieving global frameworks for sustainable development, including

12 NOVEMBER, 2017, PROF SHYAM R ASOLEKAR 14

The prescribed formats for recording the evaluation of speakers at the two-day

international capacity building programme have been appended in „Appendixes 3 and

4‟.

In one of the questions, the participants were requested to make the specific

suggestions on “future focus areas” for conducting capacity building programmes. The

list of topics proposed by the participants for conducting the future capacity building

workshops is shown below:

1) Technologies for achieving the so-called zero liquid discharge (ZLD) from

municipality and industry (focuses on circular economy, technical and financial

evaluation of the treatment strategies, management issues)

2) Technologies for rain water harvesting and management of harvested and recycled

wastewaters (focus on urban and rural community projects, technical and financial

evaluation of the decentralized projects, management issues)

3) Innovations versus practices in treatment and reuse of municipal and industrial

wastewaters

4) Innovations versus practices in treatment of municipal solid wastes

5) Rejuvenation of urban lakes and rivers stretches

6) Management of sanitation and drinking water (urban informal and congested

habitats as well as for rural India)
