Major Groundwater Contamination Issues in Odisha

🔴 Fluoride Contamination (Nuapada, Balangir, Bargarh)

  • Naturally occurring fluoride levels exceed safe limits, causing skeletal fluorosis, especially in children and elderly.
  • Rural areas lack access to water purification or awareness mechanisms.

🔴 Iron & Manganese Overload (Kandhamal, Mayurbhanj, Sundargarh)

  • High levels make water unpalatable and corrosive, leading to plumbing damage and health issues like organ fatigue and skin conditions.

🔴 Heavy Metal Contamination from Mining (Keonjhar, Jharsuguda, Angul)

  • Improper waste disposal from mining activities leads to arsenic, lead, and chromium seepage into aquifers.
  • These metals are toxic even in trace quantities and pose severe health hazards.

🔴 Salinity from Coastal Intrusion (Puri, Ganjam, Kendrapara)

  • Overdrawing groundwater has led to saline water ingress in coastal areas, making water unsuitable for drinking or agriculture.

Our Ground Water Remediation Solutions for Odisha

✅ In-Situ Remediation (Direct Aquifer Treatment)

  • Technologies like bioremediation, chemical oxidation, and nano-remediation are applied directly into contaminated aquifers to neutralize pollutants without excavation.

✅ Ex-Situ Remediation (Pump & Treat)

  • Contaminated water is extracted, treated through advanced filtration units, and either re-injected or safely discharged.
  • Best suited for industrial zones and high-pollution areas.

✅ Fluoride and Iron Removal Plants

  • Installation of community-level and household-level defluoridation and iron removal units for fluoride-affected rural belts.

✅ Constructed Wetlands & Eco-Remediation

  • Using natural wetland systems and native plants to filter contaminants near industrial zones and waste-disposal sites.

✅ Hydrogeological Mapping & Risk Assessment

  • Identifying hotspots of contamination using remote sensing, GIS, and hydrochemical surveys for precise action.
  • Helps prioritize remediation efforts in critical blocks and panchayats.
