SUSTAINABLE & ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION (SEIP) Activities in Uttarakhand: Monthly Progress Report – June, 2017
Introduction “Sustainable and Environment-friendly Industrial Production – SEIP” is a joint project of the Ministry of
Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale
Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH within the framework of Indo-German Technical Cooperation. The objective
of the SEIP project is to enable Indian public and private stakeholders to jointly implement strategies for
efficient, environment- friendly, and climate-friendly industrial development.
The project aims at mitigating environmental problems caused by industrial production focusing on
industrial wastewater and solid waste management. During the project duration, technical solutions as well
as business and management models to reduce acute environmental pollution and to improve resource
efficiency in industrial production are piloted in five Indian industrial estates. Visible positive direct impacts
of the solutions showcased are to improve conditions directly at the sites, and to unfold a strong signal
effect leading to the replication and upscaling of solutions in industrial parks throughout India. Project
activities focus on wastewater conveyance systems, the treatment, recycling and reuse of wastewater,
waste management as well as the management and planning practices in the industrial areas. Solutions
are piloted in 5 selected industrial areas located in the states of Delhi, Gujarat and Uttarakhand.
Further cross-cutting activities, such as the development of a market-driven training system for technicians
and operators of effluent treatment plants, the development of industry-wide environmental standards, the
work on a green rating system for industrial areas, and the setting up of a technology platform offering
international exchange of best practice technologies target the improvement of enabling framework
conditions for sustainable industrial production in India.
SEIP started in March 2015 and will run until February 2018 (with a likely extension of 12 months) and has
a budget of EUR 6.5 million. A brief overview of the SEIP Project is given at Annexure 1.

1. Solutions for the modernisation and upgradation of 1 CETP and 9 ETPs About the activity: The objective is to find measures to modernize the operation of the CETPs and nine selected ETPs in the
industrial estate. SIIDCUL IIE Haridwar has a CETP of 9 MLD design capacity. Over 500 units are
connected to it. The project was awarded on BOT basis to SK UEM Water Projects Private Limited on a
20-year agreement. The CETP currently caters to only about 4 MLD of waste water (domestic and industrial).
The key issues related to CETP are:
Ensure “all time compliance” of CETP/ETP and compliance of discharges of individual industries to the permissible limits of pollutant parameters
Achieve Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) and find ways how to recycle and reuse treated wastewater
Existing business and management models of CETP need improvement.
Summary of progress so far:
German consultancy (Gopa Infra) hired to provide detailed problem analysis and corresponding conceptual solutions. Work started in September 2016.
Gopa Infra visited 20 industries for initial assessment and selection of final 09 industries for ETP upgradation and modernisation activities.

3. Environmental improvement in 50 individual industries to reduce pollution and increase resource efficiency at company level
About the activity: This objective of this activity is to implement measures that will lead to either a reduction in pollution or an
increase in resource efficiency thereby improving the environmental improvements of a company and
demonstrating the effectiveness of the measure at hand. The total number of industrial units established in
Haridwar city as on March 31, 2014, is about 750, of which 550 are within the SIIDCUL IIE Haridwar. Most
of the industries are connected to the CETP; however, some face connectivity problems to the conveyance
systems due to slopes in the area. Most of the companies use old technologies and inefficient operational
techniques. Pollution and non-compliance with environmental statutory requirements are the order of the
day.
50 companies at which technically sound and financially viable techniques and technologies are to be
implemented, have been selected. The first step is the assessment for the scope of process optimisation
and improvements in resource efficiency (materials, water, energy) before detailing and implementing the
solutions suggested. Subsequently, the replication of successful solutions is to be enabled in other
industries/industrial areas.
