What Enviros India does
Enviros India is an industrial wastewater treatment company founded in 2003 by Dr. Ramesh Babu (PhD in Analytical Characterization of Water & Wastewater) and headquartered in Hyderabad, India. The company designs, builds, finances, and operates turnkey effluent treatment plants centered on its proprietary ECOT® (Electro-Catalytic Oxidation Technology) — a non-biological electro-oxidation reactor system capable of breaking down contaminants in high-strength industrial effluents with COD levels up to 75,000–100,000 ppm, significantly beyond the tolerance of conventional biological treatment.
The product portfolio spans six solution lines (Evaporator Feed Pretreatment, Zero Liquid Discharge, Water Recovery & Recycle, Raw Water Treatment, Textile Dyebath Salt Recovery, and Sewage Treatment Plants) integrated with supporting technologies including MBBR, MBR, multi-effect evaporation, and RO systems. Enviros India's customer base is concentrated in Drugs & Pharmaceuticals, Cosmeceuticals & Fine Chemicals, Agrochemicals & Pesticides, and Textiles & Dye Manufacturing, with named enterprise logos including Divis Labs, Natco, Neuland, NACL Industries, Loyal Textile Mills, and Dilip Textiles, plus executed projects in India and Bangladesh.
Revenue is generated through a mix of one-time turnkey capex projects (design-engineering-procurement-commissioning), an asset-light Build Own & Operate (BOO) model with recurring periodic fees, and ongoing Operation & Maintenance contracts. Supporting services include on-site pilot trials and wastewater audits. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with a pilot-to-full-scale conversion funnel; the company employs ~30 people and operates with minimal reliance on third-party distribution channels.

Enviros India product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Enviros India designs, engineers, installs and operates turnkey industrial wastewater treatment plants built around its proprietary ECOT® (Electro-Catalytic Oxidation) platform, delivering packaged solutions for Zero Liquid Discharge, evaporator feed pretreatment, water recovery and recycle, raw water treatment, textile dyebath salt recovery, and sewage treatment. The company also offers Build Own & Operate (BOO) managed-service contracts, Operation & Maintenance, pilot trials, and wastewater audits to pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, agrochemicals, textiles and other industrial clients in India and internationally.
Product overview
Enviros India offers a portfolio of wastewater treatment solutions centered around its proprietary ECOT® (Electro-Catalytic Oxidation Technology) platform. The core offering includes six solution areas: Evaporator Feed Pretreatment, Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD), Water Recovery & Recycle, Raw Water Treatment, Textile Dyebath Salt Recovery, and Sewage Treatment Plants. Supporting these solutions are four service offerings: Operation & Maintenance, Build Own & Operate, Pilot Trials, and Wastewater Audits. Additional treatment technologies include Moving Bed Bioreactor (MBBR) and Membrane Bioreactor (MBR). The integrated approach combines physical-chemical treatment (ECOT® electro-oxidation) with biological processes and membrane filtration to address high-strength industrial effluents.

- ECOT®: Electro-Catalytic Oxidation Technology - proprietary advanced wastewater treatment technology developed in-house for treating high-strength effluents with high COD levels.
Products and services
- Evaporator Feed Pretreatment ECOT®-based pretreatment system that handles high-strength industrial effluent (COD 75,000–100,000 ppm reduced to under 10,000 ppm) before evaporation processes, improving steam efficiency to a 1:3.0–3.2 steam-to-water ratio and reducing evaporator operational and maintenance costs.
- Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) Complete end-to-end industrial wastewater management process combining evaporation, crystallization, condensate treatment and membrane filtration, with ECOT® electro-oxidation as the front-end treatment, to achieve zero liquid discharge for high-strength pharmaceutical, specialty chemical and agrochemical effluents.
- Water Recovery & Recycle Integrated treatment systems to recycle and recover process water for industrial customers, using self-formulated multi-stage RO achieving up to 90–92% recovery with a two-year membrane guarantee, designed to address freshwater scarcity and reduce groundwater dependence.
- Raw Water Treatment Ground and raw water treatment plants producing drinking water, boiler feed water, cooling tower make-up and process water, addressing turbidity, suspended solids, colloidal impurities, silica, iron, hardness and bacterial contamination for industrial and institutional sites.
- Textile Dyebath Salt Recovery Innovative salt-recovery system for textile industry dyebath effluents using ECOT® electro-oxidation combined with a novel diafiltration process to concentrate brine up to ~80 GPL for reuse as Glauber or common salt in dyeing, with a stated 12–18 month payback period.
- Sewage Treatment Plants Containerized, modular sewage treatment plants with compact designs requiring lesser area, supplied to industries, institutions, commercial complexes, hospitals and residences.
- Operation & Maintenance Ongoing operational management service for wastewater treatment plants by Enviros India's experienced team with intimate knowledge of electro-oxidation and ZLD processes, ensuring smooth running at highest efficiency and compliance with plant performance parameters.

Enviros India competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Thermax Limited: Indian industrial conglomerate with a sizable water and wastewater solutions division serving process industries with ZLD, RO, and effluent treatment plants. Overlaps directly with Enviros on pharma, chemical, and textile customers and competes on turnkey EPC plus O&M.
- Ion Exchange (India): Long-established Indian water treatment company offering chemicals, resins, RO/UF systems, and turnkey ZLD plants for industrial clients. Competes head-to-head with Enviros across pharmaceutical, chemical, and textile effluent treatment opportunities.
- Bharuch Enviro Infrastructure Ltd (BEIL): Indian Common Effluent Treatment Plant operator serving chemical and pharmaceutical clusters in Gujarat. Overlaps with Enviros in industrial wastewater handling for process industries, although Enviros' ECOT® is more plant-side and less of a CETP model.
- Praj Industries: Indian process-engineering firm with a wastewater treatment business targeting breweries, distilleries, and process industries. Comparable in serving high-COD industrial effluents and offering ZLD-style solutions, albeit with a different primary industry focus.
- VA Tech Wabag: Indian-headquartered multinational EPC and O&M player focused on municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment, including ZLD. Directly competes with Enviros India for large ZLD and water-recovery mandates in pharma, chemical, and textile verticals across India and the Middle East.
- Triveni Engineering & Industries (Water Business): Indian conglomerate with a water treatment and effluent treatment business serving municipal and industrial customers. Comparable turnkey ZLD and water-recovery offerings, although smaller in the high-COD industrial effluent niche where Enviros specialises.
Broad incumbents
- Veolia Water Technologies India: Indian arm of Veolia's water technologies business, offering a broad portfolio of treatment chemicals, equipment, and ZLD solutions to industrial and municipal customers. Larger, broader, and better-capitalised than Enviros, and overlaps on industrial effluent treatment accounts.
- SUEZ Water Technologies & Solutions (India): Global water major with a meaningful India presence serving industrial clients with chemicals, membranes, and ZLD systems. Competes with Enviros on large pharma and chemical accounts but as a broad incumbent rather than a niche ZLD specialist.
Emerging players
- Hydrotech Engineers: Indian water and wastewater EPC firm focused on industrial clients. Smaller and more generalist than Enviros but addresses overlapping customer pain points around ZLD, water reuse, and effluent treatment for pharma and chemical manufacturers.
- Origin Water: India-based industrial water and wastewater treatment player offering ZLD and recycling systems with growing presence in pharma and chemicals. Comparable niche focus to Enviros and a potential emerging competitor in advanced effluent treatment.
