Water Recycling

As a part of our contribution towards the environment we have built a water recycling plant in the school campus. All the used water on daily basis is recycled here and later used for sanitation and watering the plants.

•The water recycling unit has a capacity of 320000 litres per day.

•The water recycling unit is spread in an area of 100 sq.ft.

•The sludge obtained from contaminated water is used as manure in the school garden.

•It has six large containers where the water is treated. In the first container the impure water is collected, the second container splits the water with high pressure, the third container treats the water, the fourth container is a geyser where the water is chlorinated and finally the treated water is stored in a large tank.

•The tank has a capacity to store up to 1Lac litres of treated water in the unit.
