Office Memorandum - Installation of Aerators at all Government Buildings
Overview:
'Water crisis' is the trending
word in India now as its affecting nearly 330 million people ( one fourth population of the country).Chennai
water crisis will explain everything about the drastic effects of water crisis.
Composite Water
Management Index (CWMI) report released by the Niti Aayog in
2018 shows that 21 major cities in the country like Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai,
Hyderabad and others will be reaching to zero
groundwater levels by 2020, affecting access for about 100 million people.
However, 12 per cent of India’s population is
already in the 'Day Zero' scenario,
excessive groundwater pumping, an inefficient and wasteful water management
system will aggravate the situation further.
The Union government
recently formed a new ministry named Jal Shakti, which targets at
managing water issues with a holistic and integrated perspective. Number of
water conservation methods has been taken up till date and now comes an
interesting initiative of applying water conservation techniques in Government
buildings all over the country.
"Follow before You
Preach" - Motivation is also an important factor in any activity. Government
of India has utilized this excellent opportunity and released an office memorandum
(M-65022/11/2019-NMM) “Requesting
for installation of 'Aerators' in Government Buildings” - A great step
towards water conservation.
What are these aerators?
Aerators are the simple
devices which when connected to water faucets will deliver a mixture of water
and air as a non-splashing stream. This technology reduces water consumption by
nearly 95% without compromising its actual purpose.
New dome type aerators
can be fixed to any kind of standard faucet in just 60 seconds, which will
diffuse the water spray and serves the purpose with just 0.4 litres per
minute at 1.5 bar pressure. These aerators can save nearly 558000 litres of
water every year in a building occupied by 100 employees.
Now it’s our turn:
Let’s extend this water
conservation initiative to corporate and household level too. Installation of
aerators for maximum possible applications or at least spreading this
initiative to maximum people will help.
