Waste Water Treatment And Solar Power
Nature has an amazing ability to cope with small amounts of water wastes and pollution, but it would be overwhelmed if we didn't treat the billions of gallons of wastewater and sewage produced every day before releasing it back to the environment.
At TNPA, the water used on the campus for bathing, cleaning and cooking is put through a chemical water treatment plant erected on the campus. The treatment plant has the capacity of treating 2 lakh litres of water at one cycle.

The treated water is collected in a huge reservoir with a capacity of 20 Lakh litres, from where it is used for irrigating the lawns and plants on the premises. Excess water from the reservoir is drained into the natural lake.

Rain Water Harvesting
All the blocks on the campus have been equipped with Rain Water Harvesting facilities. The campus is located next to a natural water body. The natural lake has been dredged and deepened to ensure that it retains rainwater throughout the year. In winter, the lake also attracts migratory birds.
