RFQ Code: WFL-RFQ001
THEME: Water Conservation & Community Health
SDG GOAL: SDG 6 – Clean Water and Sanitation
ABOUT THE PROJECT: Many rural communities across India continue to face challenges in accessing clean and safe drinking water, often relying on contaminated or inconsistent sources. The RO Water Purification Project addresses this issue by installing high-efficiency Reverse Osmosis (RO) plants that purify water from borewells or municipal supply through multi-stage filtration. These community-based systems ensure safe, affordable water access while promoting hygiene and reducing health risks. The project is designed for long-term sustainability, with operations initially managed by an NGO and later transferred to local governance structures for continued impact.
SCOPE OF PROJECT:
1. Installation of Reverse Osmosis (RO) water purification systems with multi-stage treatment
2. Integration of sand, carbon, and micron filters for effective pre-filtration
3. Use of RO membranes for advanced purification and removal of contaminants
4. Chemical dosing unit included for water conditioning and disinfection
5. Stainless steel skid-mounted system to ensure durability and compact structure
6. Provision of treated water storage tank and user-friendly dispensing system
7. Reject water diverted to dedicated recharge pits to promote groundwater replenishment
IMPACT:
1. Each RO plant purifies up to 12,000 liters of safe drinking water per day
2. Provides clean water access to approximately 6,000 individuals across 1,500 households 3. Ensures affordable access with water made available at ₹5 per 20 liters.
BENEFICIARIES: 1,500 rural households including schoolchildren and vulnerable community members
