Romegamart offers fully engineered ZLD ( Zero Liquid Discharge ) plants for industrial wastewater treatment across India. Our platform connects EPC contractors , OEMs , system integrators , and project consultants to verified ZLD manufacturers at competitive factory prices , ensuring authentic and cost effective solutions.
A Zero Liquid Discharge plant is an advanced wastewater system designed to recover nearly 100% of water from industrial effluent and convert the remaining concentrated waste into solid residues. This ensures no untreated liquid is discharged into the environment. Industries such as textiles , pharmaceuticals , chemicals , distilleries , and food processing widely adopt ZLD systems to meet strict CPCB and SPCB environmental regulations while minimizing their ecological footprint.
A typical ZLD plant employs multiple treatment stages :
Pre Treatment : Removes suspended solids , oil , grease , and organic matter.
Reverse Osmosis ( RO ) : Concentrates dissolved solids and recovers clean water.
Multiple Effect Evaporator ( MEE ) : Evaporates RO reject water to separate brine.
Crystallizer/ATFD : Converts concentrated brine into dry salts suitable for safe disposal.
Condensate Recovery : Recycles recovered water back into industrial operations.
These processes enable water recovery efficiency of up to 98% , aligning with environmental sustainability goals.
ZLD plants are essential in industries such as :
Textile dyeing and garment manufacturing
Pharmaceuticals and chemical production
Distilleries and breweries
Paper , pulp , and food processing sectors
By implementing ZLD , these industries significantly reduce wastewater discharge and conserve water resources.
The investment for a ZLD plant depends on :
Effluent volume and flow rate
Total dissolved solids ( TDS ) levels
Number of treatment stages involved
Materials of construction
Degree of automation and control systems
Typical costs range from ₹40 lakh to ₹5 crore , varying by system size and complexity.
Romegamart simplifies ZLD plant procurement with verified manufacturers offering transparent pricing and nationwide delivery. Our customizable solutions cater to small textile units and large distilleries alike , with capacities spanning from 5 KLD to over 500 KLD , ensuring the right fit for any industrial wastewater challenge.
What is a ZLD system ?
A system that recovers water from wastewater and converts effluent into solid waste to ensure zero liquid discharge.
Which industries require ZLD compliance ?
Textiles , leather , pharmaceuticals , chemicals , paper , distilleries , and other industries regulated by CPCB/SPCB.
How does ZLD differ from ETP ?
ETP may discharge treated water , whereas ZLD ensures complete recovery and zero liquid discharge.
