Conclusion
Pegasus is now a living model of decentralized sanitation for off-grid and rural campuses. It showcases how rejuWATER® makes wastewater treatment accessible, affordable, and eco-friendly, especially for NGOs, remote communities, and low-income clusters. This project continues to inspire a new way of thinking—treat where you generate.
Testimonial
"Pegasus was a challenge, but it became a demonstration site for the future of sustainable sanitation. No pipes, no pollution—just clean water from waste."
— rejuWATER® Project Team, RITEWAYS
The Results
✅ 14.6 million litres of sewage recycled annually
✅ 40,000 L of treated water reused daily
✅ No sewage conveyance infrastructure needed
✅ Groundwater contamination risks eliminated
✅ Energy use limited to just 7.5 units/day
The Solution
RITEWAYS deployed a completely decentralized rejuWATER® Soil BioFiltration STP at each sewage generation point—no machinery, no civil work, and no skilled manpower needed. The system uses sunlight, soil, and natural biology to treat 40,000 litres of wastewater daily. Existing soak pits were repurposed as treated water collection tanks with minor structural modifications. Each toilet cluster now recycles its own wastewater for flushing and gardening—right at the source.
The Problem
Located on remote, hilly terrain near Ghati Subramanya, Pegasus is a rugged team-building facility where participants engage in intense physical training—often bathing twice a day. With no city water supply and a dried-up lake and depleted groundwater, the site was struggling with acute water scarcity. The scattered layout of the campus with seven separate sewage discharge points made a centralized STP impractical due to the high cost of sewage conveyance. Improvised soak pits were unsafe and posed a risk of groundwater contamination.
