Wastewater Treatment [6.3.1]
Implementation of advanced wastewater treatment processes to ensure safe management, reuse, and discharge
Wastewater Treatment at PTUK aims to improve sanitation and reduce environmental pollution. It aligns with SDG6 by ensuring treated wastewater meets quality standards and can be safely reused. Activities include research on treatment technologies, pilot-scale treatment systems, and monitoring wastewater quality. Students and faculty participate in designing and operating treatment plants, analyzing chemical and biological parameters, and proposing improvements. Outputs include research publications, demonstration projects, and educational sessions. Additional activities include collaboration with municipal wastewater authorities, student-led treatment optimization projects, and public awareness campaigns on wastewater reuse.
