Dr. Thomas Peters:   beside long-term and middle-term activities (e.g. reduce contamination by improving urban wastewater treatment and clean the industrial effluents before discharge into the Ganga, control of open defecation and runoffs etc.) as per our opinion based on more than 30 years experience as independent consultants in water treatment also short-term activities addressing the treament of the river water to obtain potable water should be considered as one option more seriously . The combination of special sieves with the pressure driven membrane processes ultrafiltration, nanofiltration or reverse osmosis  -  to be selected case by case according to the local frame conditions  -  offers reliable, resource efficient, financial viable and environmentally sustainable solutions. These range today from hugh centralized treatment plants from up to thousands of cunic meter per hour  down to decentralised units with few Liters per hour. Solutions do exist, they must be assessed and selected adequately. www.petersconsulting.eu
