Why It Matters
The Challenge We’re Solving
- Environmental: Sludge, algal blooms, foul odours; biodiversity collapse in lakes, ponds, rivers and drains.
- Climate: Water bodies failing as carbon sinks; broken vertical water flow; higher flood/drought extremes.
- Human & Economic: Reduced agricultural productivity and water security; rising treatment and disaster-recovery costs.
Panch-Tatva Framework
- Water: The core regulator that anchors Soil, Air, Fire (sun/energy), and Space.
- Air: Photosynthesis keeps natural CO2/O2 balance.
- Fire (Sun/Energy): Drives photosynthesis and the ecological food web.
- Soil: Healthy soils enable vertical water flow and carbon fixation
- Space: Provides room for biodiversity and interdependence.
Restore the water cycle and the full ecological system re-balances.
Methodology
Site Readiness & Assessment
- Prerequisites: Bottom not laminated/cemented; surface not covered; adequate sunlight; ~5+ ft depth recommended for faster action.
- Baseline Scan: Map inflows/outflows; check sludge/odour/algae; shade vs. light; safety notes.
- Sampling Plan: Clarity/turbidity, optional chemistry, biodiversity checklist (fish/plants/birds), fixed photo points
Dosing Plan & Execution (In-Situ)
- Design: Site-specific potency/quantity/frequency based on size, load and response.
- Preparation: Mix the 100% plant-based potion into borewell water in a tank/tanker; shake before use.
- Application: Pour into one corner of the water body (preferably after 5 pm) to initiate whole-water action.
- Operations: Keep normal inflows/outflows running unless advised.
Monitoring & Stewardship
- Daily (Week 1): Odour check, clarity observation, algal coverage notes.
- Weekly (Weeks 1–12): Clarity reading, biodiversity sightings, fixed-point photographs.
- Optional: Third-party/authority sampling for water and soil indicators.
Do’s & Don’ts
- Do: Maintain sunlight exposure; keep the bottom connected to soil; follow the exact dosing plan and cadence.
- Don’t: Add disinfectants/chemicals that disrupt ecology; cover the surface; block natural flows without guidance.
Expected Milestones
- Day 1: Suppression of foul odour and mosquito habitats.
- Week 1: Notable drop in turbidity; algal blooms and weeds start decomposing.
- Week 4: Visible biodiversity return (plants, fish, birds).
- Week 12: Stable ecological rejuvenation achievable with continued stewardship.
Outcomes & Metrics
Environmental KPIs
- Turbidity/Clarity: Notable improvement by Week 1.
- Odour & Mosquito Nuisance: Suppressed within 24 hours.
- Algae/Weeds: Progressive decomposition via ecological consumption
- Biodiversity: Return of fish, aquatic plants and birds by ~Week 12.
Social KPIs
- Cleaner public spaces; improved community access to safer water (where applicable).
- Lower perceived water-borne disease risk indicators (with public-health partners
Economic KPIs
- Water treatment cost reduction: up to ~30% (site-dependent).
- Lower desludging frequency; productivity benefits in agriculture/amenities.
Carbon & Climate KPIs
- Enhanced natural carbon sequestration in water and soils.
- Carbon-credit pathway available with MRV alignment.
- Resilience benefits: improved water retention (flood mitigation) and aquifer recharge (drought mitigation).
Measurement & Reporting
- Dashboards: Weekly snapshots for clarity/odour/algae/biodiversity
- Monthly Summary: Trend charts and before/after comparisons
- Independent Validation: Optional authority/accredited lab.
