Wastewater treatment

7 sewage treatment plants have been installed to treat wastewater.

Sewage treatment is the process of removing contaminants from domestic wastewater, containing mainly sewage plus some wastewater. Physical, chemical, and biological processes are used to remove contaminants and produce treated wastewater that is safe enough for irrigation purposes.
The water released after use in hostel washrooms, kitchens and residential areas becomes grey water or waste water. This wastewater is then fed to the sewage treatment plants to undergo various physical, chemical, and biological processes to remove contaminants and
produce treated wastewater that is safe enough for horticulture and irrigation purposes.

Treated sewage is utilised within the premises for gardening, sprinkling, floor washing, dust suppression, truck washing, etc. No water is discharged outside the university.
