Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
Most countries treat their wastewater to acceptable levels so that it can be returned to the environment – generally rivers and lakes. A dilution rate of 10:1 is aimed for. This gets rid of the ‘yuk’ factor and make the water available for abstraction and treatment for potable use. However, in India, most of the rivers are already polluted so abstraction is deemed impractical. Every catchment needs an overall plan as is practiced in most countries but other factors get in the way. It’s not rocket science.
Is there any financial analysis done to prove that cost of drawing fresh water from natural sources then applying RO and then drinking is costlier than drinking treated wastewater? If you have facts, contact me. I am a researcher interested in sustainable water infrastructure.
