Water Reuse Measurement

Amity University Haryana measures water reuse through several methods and practices to ensure effective monitoring and management. Here are some key aspects of their approach:

  • Water Audit: Regular audits are conducted to assess water usage across campus, identifying sources of greywater and evaluating the volume available for reuse.
  • Flow Meters: The university employs flow meters on greywater treatment systems to quantify the amount of water being recycled and reused for various applications.
  • Quality Testing: Routine testing of the recycled water is performed to ensure it meets safety and quality standards for its intended uses, such as irrigation and toilet flushing.
  • Data Analysis: Data collected from audits and flow meters are analyzed to evaluate the efficiency of water reuse practices and identify areas for improvement.
  • Reporting: The university maintains records of water reuse metrics, which can be used for reporting on sustainability goals and compliance with environmental regulations.

By implementing these measurement strategies, Amity University Haryana can effectively track its water reuse efforts, optimize resource use, and enhance its overall sustainability initiatives.
