WATER CONSERVATION


WATER CONSERVATION

Water conservation is the practice of an efficient usage of water by reducing unnecessary wastage of the same. The importance of water conservation becomes even more necessary as there is a limited source of freshwater that is beneficial for all human beings for a Healthy lifestyle. 70% of the earth's surface is covered with water, though it is not entirely useful to humans. 97% of saltwater covering oceans is not drinkable for humans. The freshwater available for use is unevenly distributed. Human activities are polluting the water sources threatening the survival of living beings. So, water conservation focuses on the concept of “save water and save a life”.


The area where they designed wastewater treatment plant in Coorg institute of technology. There is a lot of water is wasted in the college campus. During summer season availability of fresh water is less. The main objective of this is to reduce the demand of potable water and generate the new source from reuse of wastewater.


 

Wastewater treatment is closely related to the standards and expectations set for the effluent quality. The campus requires a huge amount of water for different purposes like cleaning, gardening etc. So to fulfill the demand of water, work on treatment and reuse of wastewater generated in college departments and hostel. Thus it reduces the load over fresh water and to reduce the demand of fresh water, treatment is required for wastewater and then it is utilized.
