5. Uncover The Power of Sewage Treatment Plants
If you are intrigued by methods to go green, then you’re in luck. SNU has sewage treatment plants on campus, following the latest technology. Treated through MBR technology, sewage water is also passed through UV reactors before it is stored in a treated water tank. One of these modular plants is treating water from the academic and hostel block, and one is treating water from campus housing. Our faculty will be more than delighted to talk to you more about this initiative.
