Clean Water and Sanitation
Comprehensive report on UPI’s contribution to ensuring clean water and sanitation through sustainable water management, wastewater treatment, and community education programs.
Executive Summary
Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia (UPI) is strongly committed to sustainable water management and clean sanitation. The university implements partial water measurement systems and has established comprehensive wastewater treatment processes using Continuous LFCI System Pyrolizer in each building.
Through Rector’s Regulation No. 33 of 2025, UPI has formalized its commitment to water reuse maximization. The university provides FREE drinking water stations across campus in collaboration with air-purifier industry partners, and actively provides FREE educational opportunities for local communities to learn about good water management.
Water Management & Treatment
💧 Water Consumption Measurement
UPI measures the total volume of water used through partial measurement based on research titled “Study of Water Balance between Water Needs and Cultivation at Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia.”
♻️ Wastewater Treatment Process
The university built a Continuous LFCI System Pyrolizer water pollution control in each building. The wastewater is processed until it is safe for discharge, ensuring environmental protection.
🚰 Pollution Prevention System
The wastewater is collected and processed in a secluded and particular area, making accidental pollution nearly impossible. This prevents polluted water from entering the water system.
🥤 Free Drinking Water Stations
The university collaborated with the air-purifier industry to provide free drinking water stations. Free drinking water is now available in almost all buildings across campus.
Water Conservation & Efficiency
🏗️ Water-Efficient Building Standards
The university utilizes rainwater harvesting systems and most toilet flushes use water flushers to minimize water consumption across all campus buildings.
🌱 Drought-Tolerant Landscaping
UPI actively promotes water-efficient landscaping through initiatives such as the Kebun Nusantara program at Cibiru Campus, featuring native and drought-tolerant plants to minimize water usage.
♻️ Water Reuse Maximization Policy
UPI has an institutional policy to maximize water reuse as stated in Rector’s Regulation No. 33 of 2025 on the Management of an Environmentally Friendly Campus.
Water in the Community
🎓 Community Water Management Education
UPI actively provides FREE educational opportunities for local communities to learn about good water management through various programs and workshops.
🌊 Off-Campus Water Conservation
UPI actively supports off-campus water conservation through community service and environmental initiatives, promoting sustainable water practices beyond university grounds.
🏛️ Government Cooperation on Water Security
UPI cooperates with local governments on water security through partnerships like the one with PT (Persero), working together to ensure sustainable water management at local level.
