VC???s Water and Energy Conservation Initiative: New Ablution Area Supports Greywater Reuse
VC???s Water and Energy Conservation Initiative: New Ablution Area Supports Greywater Reuse October 17, 2026: Government College Women University Faisalabad (GCWUF), under the leadership of Vice Chancellor Prof. Dr. Kanwal Ameen (T.I.), has completed a greywater reuse project at the female ablution area near the university mosque to conserve groundwater and reduce electricity consumption. An underground RCC tank with a capacity of approximately 21,500 litres collects used water for irrigating lawns and washing roads and pathways, reducing reliance on fresh groundwater. The project also replaces a 4.5-ampere double-impeller pump, which draws groundwater from a depth of 130 feet, with a 2-ampere monoblock pump, reducing electricity consumption for gardening by at least 55 per cent. The initiative reflects the Vice Chancellor???s commitment to efficient resource management and practical environmental conservation.
