6.4 Water reuse



6.4.1 Water reuse policy

AIT is dedicated to sustainable water management. The Institute’s Waste Water Policy ensures responsible treatment of wastewater and rainwater. AIT is committed to reusing at least 70% of the water used on campus by 2026, compared to 2021 levels. We are also working to expand the usage of treated water across the campus by 20% within the same timeframe. Furthermore, AIT is transforming its wastewater facilities into systems that generate 5% of AIT’s energy through biogas for cooking and electricity. These efforts are implemented by the Office of Facilities and Asset Management under the oversight of the Vice President for Administration.

(Waste Water) Goals:

  1. To treat at least 70% of used water on campus to reuse, by 2026 compared to the volume in 2021
  2. To create opportunities to reuse treated water across the campus, increasing its use by 20% in 2026 than in 2021
  3. To transform the wastewater facilities into systems that generate 5% of AIT’s energy, as biogas for cooking and/or electricity generation.
