Posted On: 11 MAR 2026 4:47PM by PIB Delhi Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) a constituent unit of DAE, has developed cost-effective and location/contaminant-specific membrane-based water purification technologies, as a spin-off of its in-house technology development initiatives, which can find application in treatment of water in flood affected areas. The notable among them are ultrafiltration including hollow fibre-based water purifying device for microbial decontamination and suspended solids removal in online and offline modes of operation, nanofiltration for multi-valent ions removal including hardness and heavy metals. The water purification technologies are available for transfer to private entrepreneurs, on non-exclusive basis, for commercialisation. Till date the technology has been transferred to around 56 licensees for deployment across the country, the list of licensees of the respective water purification technologies are given below: Composite Polyamide Reverse Osmosis (RO) membrane for Brackish Water Desalination M/s Rupali Aquatech, Mahasrashtra M/s Davey Products, Tamil Nadu M/s Solus filtech Pvt , Gujarat M/s Osmotech Membranes Pvt Ltd, Gujarat M/s Xpert Water Technology, Gujarat M/s Meera & Ceiko Pumps Pvt Ltd, Telengana Domestic Water Purifier based on Ultrafiltration Membrane Technology M/s Rupali Aquatech, Mahasrashtra M/s Sonadka Industries Pvt Ltd, Mahasrashtra M/s Dattaguru Enterprises, Mahasrashtra M/s Stellarin Ventures Pvt Ltd, New Delhi M/s Mechmann Water Solutions Systems Pvt Ltd, Maharashtra M/s Fontek Corporation, Maharashtra M/s Learner’s Corporation, Bihar M/s Osmotech Membranes Pvt Ltd, Gujarat M/s Utopia Automation & Control Pvt.
