Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP)

ETP is necessary for regulatory compliance. Most industrial areas tend to have a central ETP facility designated exclusively for the use of the industries established within its boundaries. It is as much a regulatory requirement as a necessity to keep the image of the business uncharged. Businesses are prepared to cut into their profit margin and forgo short term gains for the long term effect of the image of the business. WTP on the other hand is necessary for industrial use of water. Industries these days use large quantities of water for a range of activities. Purified source of such water is necessary to enable businesses to run effectively.

Jetty Facility

Since Bangladesh is crisscrossed by rivers, river ports and river ways have been playing a significant role to the transportation of goods here and there. Almost all big cities and commercial centers of Bangladesh have been established by the river-ports.

An inland port is a port on a navigable lake, river (fluvial port), or canal with access to a sea or ocean, which therefore allows a ship to sail from the ocean inland to the port to load or unload its cargo. An example of this is the St. Lawrence Seaway which allows ships to travel from the Atlantic Ocean several hundred kilometers inland to the Great Lakes.
