Sustainable Water Extraction at Chennai Campus

Groundwater Recharge and Aquifer Replenishment: Using advanced rainwater harvesting techniques, rainwater is collected from rooftops, roads, and open areas and directed into recharge pits. This replenishes the local aquifers, reducing the need for excessive groundwater extraction and supporting long-term water availability on campus.

• Water Recycling Systems: Our water management systems enable the recycling of harvested rainwater and treated greywater. Recycled water is used for non-potable purposes like landscape irrigation, toilet flushing, and general campus cleaning, minimizing the draw from aquifers and natural water bodies.
• Innovative Water Technologies: In collaboration with global institutions, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham is developing and implementing sustainable water extraction technologies that are adaptable for both urban and rural settings, ensuring the health of local ecosystems and sustainable water usage.

Through these initiatives, we aim to serve as a model for sustainable water extraction and conservation, ensuring that our resources support the campus community without depleting the natural environment.
