2. What is
sustainability ?
Meets the needs of the present
without compromising the ability
of future generations to meet
their own needs
3. Being sustainable makes sense. It can improve
health, increase safety, and save money..
Sustainable residential areas can
be an effective solution for ensuring
sustainability among people
21. Agenda
• Minimizing Energy Use and
Use Renewable Energy
Strategies
• Conserving and Protecting
Water
• Enhance Indoor
Environmental Quality
• Optimizing Site Potential
• Pollution and waste reduction
measures, and the enabling
of re-use and recycling
25. Blade length, l = 2.44 m
Wind speed, v = 80 m/sec (
Chittagong , from BNBC 2015 )
Air density, ρ = 1.23 kg/m3
Power Coefficient, Cp = 0.4.
Wind energy
calculation
27. Photovoltaic glass
for electricity
generation
Enables the conversion of
sun light into electricity. To
do so, the glass incorporates
transparent semiconductor-
based photovoltaic cells ,
which are also known as
solar cells. The cells are
sandwiched between two
sheets of glass
30. Rain water
harvesting
Rainwater harvesting is a
process or technique of
collecting, filtering,
storing and using
rainwater for various
purposes.
We are storing rainwater
for emergency purposes
31. Using Biogas
Biogas is produced through
the processing of various
types of organic waste.
It is a renewable and
environmentally friendly fuel
32. Waste produced by single person = . 40 waste/day/kg
Biogas from waste = . 028 m3 / kg waste
No of people in a floor = 25 approx.
So, total no of people in a building = 25x18= 450
So, waste produced by total people = . 40 x 450 = 180 kg/day
Total biogas produced by people = 0.028 x 180 = 5.04 in3
Biogas calculation
33. We know , 1m3 = 19 mega joules
Biogas calculation
So 5.04 m3 = 95.76 mega joules
Or 26.6 kwh !
34. Under roof
greenhouse
A greenhouse is a
structure with a glass or
plastic roof and frequently
glass or plastic walls .
Its roof and sides have to
allow light to penetrate.
35. We used the last
floor as green
house
These pv glasses
also harness
electricity
40. Separate lanes
on the residential
zone road
Separate lanes for
bicycle and wheelchair
will be provided with
sufficient spaces
41. Green facades
Green facade is created by growing
climbing plants up and across the
facade of a building, either from
plants grown in garden beds at its
base, or by container planting
installed at different levels across the
building.
