⇒ Scientists, Dr VM Bhandari and his group at CSIR-NCL Pune, with support from the Water Technology Initiative of the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India, have developed the novel hybrid technology called ‘SWASTIIK’.
The novel strategy of SWASTIIK (Safe Water and Sustainable Technology Initiative from Indian Knowledgebase) can have significant benefits in terms of providing SAFE WATER and also possible health benefits that can also boost immunity.
About Technology:
In this hydrodynamic cavitation technique is used. It combines chemistry, biology, and chemical engineering along with natural resources in the form of natural oils and plant extracts.
The technology involves boiling of a liquid as a result of pressure reduction (cavitation) and also uses natural oils having antimicrobial properties.
In this technology, Modern technology, and Indian traditional knowledge of Ayurveda have been combined to bring safe & healthy drinking water.
This technology can eliminate harmful bacteria, including antimicrobial-resistant bacteria, economically.
