Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of India is much less than the other developed countries. Any ordinary citizen in such developing countries spend their major part of earnings on personal health. Majority of diseases are caused by improper sanitation practices or unhygienic conditions. There is need of decentralized system for the domestic wastewater treatment to improve the same. On the other hand, lack of maintenance of existing sanitation infrastructure and availability of the skilled persons or technicians to operate the dedicated treatment units create, the additional gap in treatment facilities. The effective investment in maintenance of treatment facilities and training of operators will save millions of rupees on the healthcare expenditure of the country.
This research article will provide insights of Morning Glory (Ipomoea carnea) plant to be used in ecofriendly and sustainable domestic wastewater treatment. The article has several images captured through Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and conventional microscope along with android cell phones and cameras. This article will be useful to engineering fraternity to open up new area of applications of Ipomoea carnea in engineering applications.
