BIOSANITIZER, developed by Bhawalkar Ecological Research Institute (BERI) acts like a nano-forest that can be used in any polluted liquid or gas, to convert pollution into resources. “It converts diverse forms of pollution into resources, at speed that can be 1,000 times higher than the natural ecosystems” said Dr. Bhawalkar, head & founder of BERI situated at Pune (India). With no production of sludge or greenhouse gases, and without any assistance in the form of machinery or electricity, BIOSANITIZER is a self-operating and self-improving system. BIOSANITIZER has been successfully implemented in various projects across 13 countries covering Water Treatment, Waste-water treatment, Solid waste management, water conservation and flood control etc. “It is a compact ‘Eco-chip’ that can correct natural as well as man-made pollution. Typically, 100 mg of BIOSANITIZER offers us the same speed and efficacy as offered by 1 acre of natural forest.” added Dr. Bhawalkar. BIOSANITIZER is kept in contact with fluids (liquids or gases). The fluid remains clean by converting the inorganic pollution into resources. Foul smelling air transforms into crisp, fresh, forest air. The active oxygen produced by the BIOSANITIZER takes care of toxic organic pollution, odour, pathogens and pests. Bio action also needs to absorb and utilize CO2, NOx and warmth. Thus the Biosanitizer becomes an important tool in correcting the threat of global warming. Another unique advantage of the product is the cost effectiveness and ease of use as pointed out by Dr. Bhawalkar “This is the convenience. There are no repetitive operating expenses involved; one just needs to drop the BIOSANITIZER catalyst granules in water. They sink to the bottom and produce need-based active oxygen from the bottom.” If the BIOSANITIZER (biocatalyst granules) are used in the fuel tank of automobiles or stationary engines or service tank of boilers that use furnace oil, we get cleaner emission with substantially less CO, NOx and CO2, with several other advantages such as higher mileage, increased engine power, lower temperature and reduced repairs and maintenance costs. Dr. Bhawalkar, is a graduate in Chemical engineering from IIT Bombay. Later he studied Nature for 24 years, perfected this innovation, and received his Ph.D. from IIT Bombay. This article is the first in the series, covering innovations done in the field of climate change which can offer us some of the best ways to tackle climate change.
