OUR PROJECTS
Project Neersa addresses untreated sewage and its harmful effects on ecosystems, water bodies, and livelihoods. Using a tri-segmented approach, it converts sewage sludge into biogas, providing renewable energy for cooking, transportation, and electricity. Eco-friendly by-products like organic fertilizers improve soil fertility, while durable construction bricks support sustainable infrastructure. Additionally, Neersa rejuvenates contaminated water bodies through innovative treatments, restoring ecosystems and boosting fishery incomes. Collaborating with organizations like Delhi Jal Board and Growdiesel, and empowering local entrepreneurs, Neersa fosters a circular economy. Neersa fosters sustainabilty for a cleaner future.
The growth of water hyacinth, an invasive plant species in rivers and canals poses a threat not only to biodiversity and water quality but also to the health and livelihoods of the communities residing near these water bodies. The rapidly multiplying plant doubles in a span of two weeks and challenges the ecological stability of freshwater bodies. Its dense mat harms the aquatic biodiversity by out-competing all other species growing in the vicinity and leads to a drop in phytoplankton count, decreasing oxygen levels & depleting marine life. Project Nivaran is aimed at curbing the ecological impact caused by water hyacinth by efficiently extracting and repurposing the plant into useful by-products, thereby harnessing its considerable utility.
