Mumbai International Airport Case Study

Overview

As a part of a massive expansion plan for Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport located in Mumbai, India, a wastewater recycle project was contracted in 2011 to cater to the growing requirements of the expanded airport.

Due to increasingly strict environmental regulations, the treatment of raw sewage wastewater is required before it is allowed to flow into the natural ecological system. As the airport has a lack of fresh water availability for its needs, it now recycles and reuses the treated sewage water for its operations, such as toilet flushing, horticulture, and HVAC cooling makeup water.
