Environment and Sustainability

Towards a Water Positive Future

ELCITA is leading the way in sustainable water management, ensuring every citizen enjoys access to clean and safe drinking water while championing the recycling and reuse of wastewater. By integrating innovative technologies and smart infrastructure, ELCITA is proud to have achieved Water Positive status for its own operations in 2025, now setting its sights on transforming the entire township into a Water Positive community by 2027.

Key Initiatives:

1. Freshwater

Since 2013, ELCITA has been providing freshwater to its member companies. We source water from the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) and our own borewells. Our storage infrastructure includes a 1.5 MLD underground reservoir (UGR) and a 45 HP pumping system. Currently, we receive 1 MLD of water from BWSSB and 50 KL from borewells, which is distributed to member companies through water tankers.

At ELCITA, we prioritize the responsible use of water. That’s why we’ve introduced smart solutions, such as water meters, pressure sensors, and real-time quality monitoring, through our I-Connect platform. We’ve also set up a 100 KLD softener system to treat hard water, ensuring it meets top quality standards (BIS: 10500:2012). Together, we’re making every drop count.

2. Rainwater harvesting

ELCITA is dedicated to sustainable water use. Our advanced rainwater harvesting and recharge systems have restored 2,024 KL and 592 KL of groundwater and store up to 160 KLD of rainwater for future needs. We ensure responsible usage and long-term resource protection championing water conservation and environmental resilience.

Three types of rainwater harvesting solutions:

1. Injection Wells – 43 wells built, each 3 ft × 60 ft

2. Recharge Pits – 37 pits built, each 3 ft × 20 ft

3. Harvesting Tanks – 4 tanks within our jurisdiction, with capacities of 30 KL and 50 KL (Two each)

Demonstrating our commitment to environmental sustainability, ELCITA has developed 23 rainwater recharge pits at various companies’ sites.

Together, these initiatives ensure responsible water use while supporting long-term sustainability.

3. Wastewater

To support the township’s industries, ELCITA has built multiple sewage treatment plants with a total capacity of 1,927 KLD. Using advanced technologies like (Extended Aeration Activated Sludge System (EAAS), Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR), Anaerobic Baffled Reactor (ABR), Membrane Bioreactor (MBR), and Soil Biotechnology (SBT) are various wastewater treatment technologies, we treat around 1600–1800 KLD of wastewater daily turning it into a valuable resource for sustainable growth

ELCITA’s STPs are powered by smart meters connected to our i-Connect platform and an advanced SCADA system, allowing real-time monitoring. This ensures 95% efficiency while meeting all KSPCB standards under the Water & Air (Prevention & Control) Act.

3.1 State of the Art 1.6MLD MBR Plant

ELCITA has a 1,600 KLD Membrane Bio Reactor (MBR) STP at East Phase, Electronics City. The plant treats sewage from nearby villages and industries through underground sewer lines.

Equipped with energy-efficient electro-mechanical systems and an innovative acoustic wood design, the plant keeps noise levels below 65 dB, 99% as per KSPCB limits, meeting the standards.

With a fully automated SCADA system, operations are seamless and efficient.
The advanced membrane technology ensures 99% treatment efficiency, while UV sterilizers further purify the water by eliminating biological impurities, delivering high-quality treated water that meets the highest standards.

3.2 300KLD Plant (EAAS)

ELCITA has completed a 300 KLD Extended Aeration Activated Sludge System STP at East Phase, Electronics City. The plant treats sewage from industries and KSSIDC through underground sewer line of 1.5 KM.

With a fully automated SCADA system and upgraded energy-efficient equipment, operations are smooth and effective. Our advanced aeration system achieves 98% treatment efficiency, while UV sterilizers ensure the treated water meets the highest quality standards.

3.3 10 KLD SBR Plant

ELCITA has completed a 10 KLD Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) STP at West Phase, Electronics City, treating sewage from the ELCIA office building with reliable and eco-friendly technology.

Recycled Water

At ELCITA, we recognize the importance of water recycling. We utilize over 90% of treated water for non-domestic activities such as gardening, landscaping, construction, and road wash. Additionally, we sell recycled water to member companies for their landscaping and construction needs, further contributing to sustainable water management.

Enhanced Facilities

Our approach not only conserves precious freshwater resources but also empowers member companies by providing them with high-quality recycled water, supporting their operational and development activities. These initiatives promote environmental stewardship, reduce dependency on freshwater supplies, and reinforce a culture of sustainable growth and responsible resource utilization.

Solid Waste Management

Objective:

The main objectives of the team are:

  1. Collection at the member companies,
  2. Segregation at the source, and
  3. Responsible disposal of the waste generated.
    This year, ELCITA has achieved the ‘Zero Waste to Landfill’ certification from TUV Rheinland for the period from November 2023 to November 2024.
Operations Model

ELCITA follows a unique model where all solid waste within the township is handed over to an authorized agency. A state-of-the-art Material Recovery Facility (MRF) has been constructed, enabling efficient waste segregation. A professional agency is responsible for collecting, segregating, and disposing of waste to authorized recyclers. Annual SWM user fee levied to the property owner based on the built-up area.

The Electronics City Industrial Township Authority (ELCITA) hereby informs all industries and establishments within Electronics City about the introduction of a Solid Waste Management User Fee / Cess with effect from April 1, 2025.

Whereas the Electronics City Industrial Township Authority is a local authority which shall discharge the function of collecting and disposing solid waste within the area.

Whereas, under rule 2 of the solid waste management rules, 2016 these rules are applicable to industrial townships also. Under sub clause (30) of rule 3 of the said rules local body includes an industrial Township authority. Sub rule (54) of rule 3 of the said rules empowers a local authority to collect user fee from solid waste generators within the area.

Whereas rule 15 of the solid waste management rules 2016 imposes duty on the local authority to prepare solid waste management plan, arrange door to door collection, frame bye laws and to prescribe user fee in respect of collection of solid waste and its disposal.

In exercise of the above powers ELCITA being a local authority hereby resolves to levy and collect solid waste management user fee in the ELCITA area with effect from 1st April 2025 as specified below.

As per SWM Rules 2016, definition 46, “solid waste” means and includes solid or semi-solid domestic waste, commercial waste, institutional waste, catering and market waste and other non-residential wastes, street sweepings, horticulture waste, agriculture and dairy waste, and excluding industrial waste, bio-medical waste and e-waste, battery waste, radio-active waste generated in the area under the local authorities and other entities.

With the introduction of the SWM User fee as detailed herein, the previous system of billing by M/s. Nepra Resource Management Solutions Private Limited for collection of solid waste stands cancelled with effect from 1st April 2025. All dues till 31st March 2025 need to be settled to M/s NRMPL directly by all establishments who have availed their services.
