Greater Noida's ponds revival via ozonisation

11 Dec 2023 CW Team

In a forward-looking environmental initiative, Greater Noida is set to rejuvenate five ponds using the innovative process of ozonisation. This sustainable approach aims to enhance water quality, biodiversity, and overall ecological balance in the region's aquatic ecosystems.

The decision to leverage ozonisation technology underscores the municipality's commitment to eco-friendly solutions for water restoration. Ozone, a powerful oxidising agent, will be used to eliminate pollutants and improve water clarity without the use of harmful chemicals. This method aligns with global best practices for sustainable water management.

The five identified ponds play a vital role in the local ecosystem, and their restoration is expected to have far-reaching benefits. By adopting ozonisation, Greater Noida not only addresses immediate environmental concerns but also establishes a precedent for other regions to explore eco-conscious strategies for water conservation.

This initiative reflects the municipality's proactive stance toward environmental stewardship and showcases the potential of modern technologies in achieving ecological balance. As Greater Noida embarks on this path of sustainable pond rejuvenation, it sets an inspiring example for the integration of innovative solutions into urban planning for a greener and more resilient future.
