A Hospital in Baghmara Now Treats Its Own Sewage.

At Civil Hospital, Baghmara, in South Garo Hills, we installed two 25 KLD EcoTreat units for Meghalaya's Health and Family Welfare Department. The hospital's sewage is now treated on its own grounds.

Before

Civil Hospital, Baghmara, had no working sewage treatment, and its drainage failed in the monsoon.

What We Did

We assessed the site with the health department, designed the system and carried out the civil works, largely with local workers. We supplied, installed and commissioned two 25 KLD EcoTreat units with our technology partner, and built new drainage and flood-prevention works around them. The plant was functioning by June 2026, and we trained the hospital staff to run its daily checks.

How We Work

The System

Two 25 KLD EcoTreat units, 50 KLD in total, on the hospital grounds. Each treats the sewage in four chambers inside one tank, then disinfects it before reuse.

What Changed

The hospital's sewage is treated on its own grounds instead of overwhelming its drains. The plant was functioning by June 2026, when treated water was trialled for toilet flushing, and hospital staff now run the daily checks. The measure of success is continuity: the plant must keep working after the installers leave.
