King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok (KMUTNB) ensures that any water extracted from natural sources, such as aquifers, lakes, or rivers, is done using sustainable technologies and practices. The university applies environmentally responsible water extraction methods to minimize impact on local ecosystems, maintain groundwater levels, and support long-term water security both on and near campus. This plan will include periodic monitoring of water extraction volumes to ensure compliance with national water regulations and sustainable withdrawal limits.
To minimize environmental impact, KMUTNB installs metering and data logging systems at extraction points to monitor usage patterns and detect anomalies such as over-extraction or leakage. The university will prioritize rainwater harvesting, greywater reuse, and condensate recovery systems as alternative water sources to reduce reliance on groundwater. These initiatives will contribute to maintaining groundwater recharge balance and improving water sustainability across the campus.
