GANDHINAGAR, 26 June, 2021 (TON): On Friday, Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani virtually inaugurated the country's first Fenton wastewater treatment plant at the Vatva GIDC in Ahmedabad.

Rupani said, "The state government is committed to protecting the environment while simultaneously focusing on industrial development. At present, Gujarat has 35 common effluent treatment plants (CETPs) having a combined capacity to treat 750 million litres of industrial wastewater per day."

At a cost of Rs 70 crores, the Fenton Catalytic Reactor has been set up by the Green Environment Services Co-operative Society Limited (GESCSL) at its premises in Vatva GIDC.

However, the GESCSL is administering the CETP at Vatva, catering to the industrial effluent released from its 674 member industrial units.
