Hence, water has become a precious commodity all across the globe.
Water is the “invisible utility”, whose usage patterns are too often overlooked by companies as a cost of doing business. Water bills can account for as much as 20% of a buildings’ utility cost and upwards in process applications. Compared to other countries, Canadian water prices are well below average. The cost of water is likely to rise as watersheds are depleted, water conservation and efficiency standards are legislated, and municipal governments increase rates to fund repairs to aging infrastructure. To reduce water utility bills, building owners must find ways to limit their consumption without sacrificing occupancy comfort.
The water used in cooling systems, boilers, products and production represents the largest water-related expenditure at an industrial site. In addition, the quality and quantity requirements vary from one industry to another and from one site to another. Given the importance of process water for our industrial customers, we have made it a priority to offer them reliable and innovative solutions to meet their water needs and ensure continuity of industrial production. http://www.degremont.com.au/industrial/solutions/process-water/

List of Water Management_Saving Methods for Apartment Construction Plan in ch...Ishahomes
List of Water Management/Saving Methods for Apartment Construction Plan in chennai
1. Recharging Ground Water in Apartments
Water is essential, and it is a finite resource. Groundwater recharge is one method of water management that can help ensure an adequate water supply for future generations. Groundwater recharge occurs when water from the surface, such as rain or melted snow, seeps down into the ground and replenishes groundwater supplies. This process can happen naturally during rain, or it can be assisted through artificial means. Artificial groundwater recharge is a process whereby water is deliberately infiltrated into shallow aquifers to increase groundwater quantity. This can be done through various methods, such as injecting water into the ground or using percolation pits. The volume of water being abstracted from an aquifer over the long term mustn’t exceed the volume being recharged; otherwise, groundwater supplies will dwindle.
2. Greywater System in Apartments
Looking to save on your water bill? Consider using greywater in your home. Greywater is wastewater from non-toilet plumbing fixtures, like sinks, washing machines and showers. This type of water is generally easier to recycle than blackwater, because it contains fewer contaminants. The method and standard of treatment will depend on the size of your system. To avoid confusion with potable water, make sure all pipes and supply points in your greywater system are clearly labeled. With proper care, a greywater system can help you save up to 40% on your yearly water bill.
3. STP System/ Wastewater Recycling
Wastewater recycling is crucial for preserving our water resources. There are two main types of wastewater – greywater and blackwater. Greywater is easier to treat and recycle than blackwater, which contains harmful bacteria that can cause disease. In order to save our communities from the dangers of raw sewage, one should build wastewater treatment plants and enforce laws against its release into the environment. These treatment plants help us recycle blackwater, making it safe to use again. In recent years, it has been evident that there has been an increasing interest in wastewater reuse as a key part of water conservation efforts. If your society banded together to invest in a sewage treatment plant (STP), it could mean an end to water scarcity and the recycling of water 365 days a year. To make this happen, you would need to get consent for operation from your municipal corporation and employ qualified staff to oversee standard operating procedures. However, if you invested in an eco-friendly STP that uses anaerobic methods and requires little energy, mimicking natural processes, then you could make a huge impact without using diesel or polluting the environment.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. MANAGING WATER AND ITS
CONSERVATION
BY
SHION .K.BABU
III B.COM(CA)
O9CCU004
2. WHY CONSERVE WATER?
1.It is a resource that is a benefit to everyone.
2. To save money. Lower consumption means lower water bills.
3. To keep rates low. Maximizing current water supplies helps
defer the need to develop new, more expensive sources of water.
4. To prepare for a drought. Many areas of the country have
experienced drought conditions in the past few years. Water
conservation helps prepare for these worst of times.
5. To comply with regulations. Many states and local regulators
have established efficient water use regulations
3. TWO TYPES OF PRACTICES
1. Engineering practices: practices
based on modifications in
plumbing, fixtures, or water
supply operating procedures.
2. Behavioral practices: practices
based on changing water use
habit.
4. MONITORING
Provides baseline information on quantities of
overall company water use, the seasonal and hourly
patterns of water use, and the quantities and
quality of water use in individual processes.
Baseline information on water use can be used to
set company goals and to develop specific water
use efficiency measures.
Monitoring also raises employee awareness.
Records of meter readings can be used to identify
changes in water use rates and possible problems in
a system.
5. SUB METERING
The practice of placing water meters throughout a
facility is called sub metering.
Sub metering helps account for water usage and
can help in the process of leak detection.
Areas to consider sub metering are landscaped
areas, cafeterias, laundries, and major industrial
equipment that use water.
Sub metering makes water users more aware of
how much water they use and its cost.
By placing meters and monitoring those meters
throughout a facility, experts estimate that a facility
can help reduce water usage by 20 to 40 percent.
6. METER ACCURACY
Water meters can be damaged and
deteriorate with age, thus producing
inaccurate readings.
All meters, especially older
meters, should be tested for accuracy on
a regular basis.
Meters that are used to measure large
volumes of water may be too large for a
customer's level of use and will tend to
under-register water use.
A Meter testing, calibration, repair, and
replacement program needs to be
established.
7. LEAK DETECTION
leaks saves money on water bills. The
early detection of leaks also reduces the
chances that leaks will cause major
property damage.
A leak detection strategy needs to
employ regular on-site testing methods for
detecting leaks along water distribution
mains, valves, services, and meters.
Leak detection programs are especially
important in facilities that have
large, old, deteriorating systems.
8. REDUCING WATER PRESSURE
Reducing excessive pressures in the water
distribution system can save a significant
quantity of water.
Reducing water pressure can decrease
leakage, the amount of flow through open
faucets, and stresses on pipes and joints that
may result in leaks. Lower water pressure may
also decrease system deterioration, reducing
the need for repairs and extending the life of
existing facilities.
Lower pressures can help reduce wear on
end-use fixtures and appliances
9. WATER REUSE
Water reuse is the use of wastewater or
reclaimed water (sometimes called “gray
water”) from one application for another
application.
Some potential applications include other
industrial uses in cooling water at power plants
and oil refineries or industrial process water for
such facilities as paper mills and carpet
dyers, toilet flushing, dust control, construction
activities, concrete mixing, and artificial lakes.
Reused water can also be used in landscape
irrigation, agricultural irrigation, aesthetic uses
such as fountains, and fire protection.
10. COOLING WATER
RECIRCULATION
The use of water for cooling in industrial
applications represents one of the largest water
uses in the United States.
The most water-intensive cooling method used in
industrial applications is once-through cooling, in
which water contacts and lowers the temperature of
a heat source and then is discharged.
Recycling water with a re circulating cooling
system can greatly reduce water use by using the
same water to perform several cooling operations.
Three cooling water conservation approaches
that can be used to reduce water use are
evaporative cooling , ozonation , and air heat
exchange.
11. EVAPORATION COOLERS
The principal use of water by
evaporative coolers is to increase the
humidity of incoming air being drawn
into a building and decrease its
temperature. The building’s air cools as it
absorbs the moisture.
Evaporative coolers require an annual
maintenance check-up for the most
efficient cooling.
12. OZONATION
The use of ozone to treat cooling tower water (ozonation):
Can result in a 99% reduction in the appearance of bacteria. And
personnel no longer have to handle
chlorine, bromine, phosphates, and other chemicals. It helps keep
the metal surfaces of pipes and equipment clean, making
equipment more energy efficient.
Controls corrosion by producing a protective coating on metal
surfaces, extending equipment life.
Acts as a strong disinfectant. Can use lower amounts of high-
quality water and it reduces cooling tower blow down water
consumption by 50 to 90%.
13. AIR HEAT EXCHANGE
Air heat exchange works on the same principle
as a car's radiator. In an air heat exchanger, a fan
blows air past finned tubes carrying the re
circulating cooling water.
Air heat exchangers involve no water loss, but
they can be relatively expensive when compared
with cooling towers.
Air heat exchangers can be more reliable and
more productive than water cooling
14. ONCE-THROUGH COOLING
Many facilities have one or more pieces of
equipment cooled by a single-pass flow of water.
After passing through and cooling the
equipment, the water is usually discarded to a
sanitary sewer system.
Equipment that might use a once-through cooling
system include degreasers, rectifiers, hydraulic
equipment, x-ray machines, condensers, and
viscosity baths. Also air conditioners, air
compressors, hydraulic presses, welders and
vacuum pumps
15. METAL FINISHING
Platters and finishers, printed circuit board
operators, fabricators, integrated circuit metal
fabricators and other facilities use numerous
process rinses and reaction baths. Water is essential
in the manufacturing process for these facilities.
There are several water conserving methods that
manufacturers should consider including: Flow
Monitoring and Control, First Stage Static
Tanks, Counter flow Rinsing, Spray
Rinsing, Membrane Technologies, Ion Exchange and
Electrolyte Recovery
16. CAFETERIAS AND
RESTAURANTS
Use water in garbage disposer only during
operation.
If thawing foods in cold running
water, change to thawing under
refrigeration, in a microwave, or in the
cooking process.
“Double Dip” to clean large volumes of
produce.
Replace "once through" water cooled ice
machines and refrigeration condensers with
air cooled machines.
Limit dishwashing to full loads. Turn off the
continuous flow used to clean the drain trays
of the coffee/milk/soda beverage island.
17. HOSPITALS AND CLINICS
Turn off water required for film processing or
cooling in the X-ray department when not in
use.
Recycle water where feasible, consistent
with state and county requirements.
Use full loads in
sanitizer, sterilizer, dishwasher, and washing
machines.
Overhaul faulty steam traps on sterilizers.
Replace equipment with water-saving
models.
Reduce the load on air conditioning units by
shutting off air conditioning when and where it
is not needed.
Recover condensate and use it as make-up
water
18. CLOSED-LOOP VEHICLE
WASHERS
The closed loop vehicle washers are facilities
that completely recycle the wash water used in
cleaning cars, trucks, etc.
Wash water will go through three different
treatment units before being recycled for reuse.
The alpha treatment unit is an oil/water
separator.
The beta treatment unit removes fine dirt
particles and any remaining hydrocarbons.
The omega treatment adds ozone to the water
before reuse.
19. RAIN WATER HARVESTING
Rain Water Harvesting is capturing and storing
rainfall to irrigate plants or to supply people and
animals.
A well-designed system will also decrease your
landscape maintenance needs.
All you need for a water harvesting system is
rain, and a place to put it.
A "catchment" is any large surface that can
capture and/or carry water to where it can be
used immediately or stored.
20. RAIN WATER HARVESTING
A water surplus available at the right time of
year makes storage well worth the time and
effort. A surplus becomes impractical when it
must be stored for more than several months.
Water stored for long periods of time will
stagnate and become a health hazard.
