Key Features

The Advanced Oxidation Technology or TADOX

  • Ecofriendly solution to sludge/wastewater.
  • End-to-end treatment for highly polluted industrial & municipal wastewater, open drains, enhancing water reuse.
  • Novel UV-Photocatalysis mediated Advanced Oxidation based secondary treatment, leading to oxidative degradation & mineralization of pollutants.
  • Clean & green: chemical, sludge & secondary pollution free, improves biodegradability & prevents biofouling of RO membranes.
  • Quality & efficiency: Compliance with CPCB discharge norms [for COD, BOD, POP etc], and Zero Liquid Discharge, low Hydraulic Retention Time, reduced CAPEX and OPEX.
  • Small footprint: modular & retrofittable to existing STPs and ETPs.
  • Supported by the Water Technology Initiative (WTI), Department of Science & Technology; selected as the treatment of choice for "Namami Gange" project

Why TADOX?

Water Crisis, Couldn't be Better!

Reuse of ‘treated water’ is becoming increasingly essential for Industries & Utilities as crisis of freshwater availability is looming large. However, the lack of ‘adequate’ quality of treated water with existing technologies having huge land and O&M costs together being highly energy intensive and unsustainable, leaves a lot to be desired for. Therefore, in the pursuit of integrating novel approaches and advanced technologies that can reduce overall load on tertiary treatment trail in a much affordable manner, TERI has come up with a novel eco-friendly solution called TADOX. TERI Advanced Oxidation Technology enables sustainable and affordable ZLD compliance with 85-90% enhanced water reusability, which is the ‘need of the hour’. Further, being modular, few hours treatment time together with resource & energy efficiency, the treatment of highly polluted wastewater streams is expected to bring down OPEX by 30-40% than current values.

Notably, National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG), Ministry of Jal Shakti and TERI are all set to explore possibilities of TADOX® implementation in point source pollution abatement across ETPs/STPs under Namami Gange Programme.

TADOX provides a low CAPEX & OPEX solution to treating municipal sewage and industrial waste water upto 95% efficiency, a significant step towards achieving Zero Liquid Discharge. Use of nano-technology ensures minimal chemical involvement, thereby eliminating secondary pollution. Its compact set up allows for a decentralised water treatment process, providing a cost effective and scalable solution to ensure water security.
