"India is a future market," said Robert J. Rebori, president of Bio-Microbics. "There is an enormous amount of potential for the private sector. Offering products that have been adapted to the market is clearly an opportunity for Bio-Microbics."
As reported by Water & Wastes Digest: "The Indian market for environmental services is set to grow to a total volume of 3.2 billion Euros by 2013. Increasing urbanization and greater environmental consciousness in India are leading to a growing demand for modern environmental technologies and services." Bio-Microbics India will exhibit at the upcoming Aquatech India Show, booth #2003A, which takes place April 8 to 10, 2013 in Delhi, NCR.
"The core of Bio-Microbics India is to leverage the successes these products and systems have had all over the world…to deliver advanced solutions to India," said Mr. Shahaveer Jamshedji, Div. Head - Bio-Microbics India. "In bringing Bio-Microbics products into the Shroffs Engineering family, we are expanding our portfolio of product offering for more opportunities to service our customers and clients."
This announcement is on the heels of finalizing the Ministry of Urban Development's "Manual on Sewerage and Sewage Treatment" for India. Promoting the guidelines for Decentralized Wastewater Management (which Bio-Microbics India products can address), the Manual keeps in mind "the National Urban Sanitation Policy of [the] Government of India. The guidelines consider the implementation, operation/maintenance, and management aspects of achieving total sanitation - instead of focusing merely on underground sewerage system[s]." This total approach to sanitation treatment with respect to "safe management of municipal wastewater" signifies India's importance in "achieving the objective of minimizing environmental pollution."
