Abstract
Stormwater is an abundant source of raw water. Stormwater collection, storage treatment and management are important topics particularly in tropical and monsoon dependent countries. In monsoonal countries like India, annual floods during rainy season are a regular feature resulting in urban floods. Example 2005 Bangalore and Mumbai urban flash floods; 2019 and 2021 urban floods of Hyderabad and Chennai. Feasibility of implementing “Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS)” is one solution. SUDS is a well-established and operationalized in developed counties. This is a neglected area in the Indian scenario. Urban flood and storm lecwater treatment options and management using macrophytes are described. Bioremediation of industrial waste water, Nutrient removal from urban flood and agricultural waste water, Macrophytes for waste water treatment, resource recovery and value additions, nutrient recovery. Sulphur recovery from distillery waste, Algal biorefinery, ornamentals for treatment of petrochemical and chemicals, food and beverage, wineries and breweries, effluents from aquacultures, distilleries and sugar cane mill effluents, effluents from meat, vegetable and soft drinks processing sectors, agro-industrial wastewater, dairy wastewater treatment, swine wastewaters, acid mine drainage, cork boiling wastewater, tanneries and the textile industry waste waters, pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCP) in domestic and industrial effluents are covered.
