How Prem Shenoi, a pioneer acknowledged for ushering Environment Bioremediation in India is revolutionizing India’s waste water management industry with his venture, Aerobic Biotaxy India Pvt. Ltd.

Waste water is an unavoidable by product of life and the living world has encompassed its own 'waste water management' solutions since its creation.

Mankind, with its developments and discoveries in the arenas of health, technology, engineering and other industries has made advancements but has simultaneously left the earth down in dumps- with overburdened wastewater streams and aggressive environmental pollution. We have unbalanced the ways nature manages, reduces and reuses waste water.

How, then, can we maintain an equilibrium between development and waste water management? To address this alarming concern of mounting waste mountains and the crippled polluted streams, Mr Prem Shenoi, an intuitive thought leader took notes from nature's incredible systems for managing waste and emulated nature's strategies in human designs to uncover a panacea for waste water management challenges.

And this was how the vision of Aerobic Biotaxy India Pvt. Ltd. was shaped. With its well-established technologies engineered to solve the unmet needs of wastewater management, ABIL has brought in a sustainable, techno-commercially viable solution with reduced operational and faecal sludge management and costs.

ABIL's engineered Bio Remediation technology has answered most of the toxicity in disposal system created by modern living lifestyle subsequent to economic stability.

ABIL caters environmental Biotechnology solutions to every corner of the world- starting from single house apartment to large commercial & Industrial complex.

The organization's modular and scalable products & systems are easy to install & operate while adaptable to any site conditions like below car parking or pathways or at set aside areas.

ABIL products are unique in the longevity of their functionality & continuity of their sustainability. The systems are adaptable to any existing or failed treatment plants without going in for heavy investment on machinery & other infrastructures.

With the initiation of its journey back in 2012, ABIL has refined and evolved its technological expertise in wastewater treatment, adapted from Mother Nature's tools.

The man behind ABIL's spark of change- Mr Prem Shenoi

A Science graduate from Kochin, Mr Shenoi has channelized his expertise for numerous infrastructure projects like Mines, Dams, water body rejuvenation across various countries.

He has also worked for international trade agreements and assisted heads of many businesses to revive their operations. In most part of his life, he was a globetrotter.

He brought Environment Bioremediation in India by incorporating Aerobic Biotaxy India Pvt. Ltd. in association with Dr Daniel Wickham&Mr Curtis Ashbeck.

He is renowned in customizing the Aerobic Treatment Process for Indian horizon. Mr Shenoi has been instrumental in providing new dimensions to ABG (Aerobic Bacteria Generators).

He observed the limitations of initial submerge ABGs for large-volume treatment due to hostile regimes, operational difficulty & serviceability aspects.

Hence, he invented & introduced On-Surface, Sub surface  ABG model called 'Genie' that can avoid the costly external dosing of bacteria to maintain the targeted bio-digestion strength as high-volume bacteria generators.

A key component, aeration holds a vital position in the bioremediation to provide necessary energy & accelerate the degradation of organic wastes by microorganisms.

Another state-of-art technology, Pressure Balanced OCTOPUS™ Oxygenators, patented by Mr Shenoi, are fine bubble diffuser, suitable for waste water treatment, createsan oxygen-rich foam environment in its core because water generally holds mere 7-9mg/l oxygen.

Encouraged by the sustainable bio-digestion of sewage & solid waste, Mr Prem Shenoi expanded the aerobic bioremediation process to various challenging fields by conducting various successful trials for industrial effluents like Nicotine digestion at ITC Ltd.

Bangalore (The bioremediation of 100% nicotine has been patented by Mr Shenoi), Milk Dairy, Tannery, etc.

ABIL: an innovative solution for the mammoth waste management concern in India

Headquartered at Bangalore, ABIL has established itself as a multinational environmental biotechnology frontrunner on the Indian landscape by successfully creating a blend of environmental biology and technology to process domestic & industrial waste, wastewater management and resolving environmental pollution problems.

Spearheading as a debit- free organically grown leader, the frontrunner has come up with its own Aerobic Bacteria Generators and its improved version design and new products are constantly diversified in respect to the easier operation and cost-cutting by keeping its customers in focus.

ABIL uses sound scientific novel bio-remediation technology to digest all pollutants (Sludge) whatever the complex forms they are and breaks them back into natural elements.

The company is in the possession of eleven patents(filed)under this technology and seven are in the process of filing.Furthermore the organization has entered in multiple Memorandum of Understanding with International leaders including Biocon ltd, Leidos Plc USA, Emersion Plc USA, Sludge hammer group Plc USA and many others across the domain to share the technology and component development.

Known for its advanced products of Aerators, Diffusers and Bacteria growth media which are manufactured 100% in India. ABIL is equipped with twenty-five energetic professional from microbiology, mechanical engineering, MBA marketing polytechnics to execute, support & service the work at ABIL. The entire team is of environment enthusiasts who are full of energy & passion in all what they do.

AIBL's Sustainable Smart Waste Water Treatment Technology (SSWWTT)

ABIL's next gen technology, Sustainable Smart Waste Water Treatmenthas been developed as a new age application of Artificial intelligence based automation of waste watertreatment system.

It will add value to the organization by optimizing Data for operatingefficiencies, maintenance, plus consumer use and extracting human health information insights over health deficiencies and illness, quantity andquality reusable resources to accelerate sewerage economy.

Additionally, it leads thepathway to smart cities architecture by monitoring qualities of sewage, sewer, seweragesystem, health indicators, and detecting needs for up-gradations, design modifications,maintenance and repair throughout the system for a sustainable futuristic Smart Sewerage Economy.To implement this technology, ABIL is currently working on its first project in Bangalore.

Waste Digester

ABIL's another dream project; Waste Digester holds prowess in the complete elimination of garbage waste land fill(size; 1x3m) comprising of wet & smelling garbage food waste vegetable and kitchen waste etc of approx 30 houses.

In the timeframe of 5 hours, the Waste Digester will convert the waste into an odorless dry powder composite, containing agriculture value. A revolutionary project, the machine will successfully convert the mounds of garbage with 100 % saving on removal, transportation and landfills with free from smell and diseases.

Building a better world and moving forward with Disruptive Technology

Adhering to its principals, ABIL is successfully crafting a niche for itself with three-fold growth and satisfying its clientele, including a host of CDP, Platinum8 and Fortune 500 companies.ABIL's bioremediation speaks for the uniqueness of the company.

It stands ahead of the technologies like SBR, MBBR, RBC, and MBRthat extract water from the waste and leave the residue behind, without any treatment.

The organization's successfully installed 70plus Sludge & Odor Free(SOF) plants in & out of Karnataka has treated more than 2 billion litersof wastewater as on today with no chemicals, pathogens, toxic gases that pollute the water, soil & other ecosystems.
