Water Quality

WATER QUALITY:

The Institute is also involved in testing quality of drinking water at Dayalbagh colony to ensure the supply of clean and safe water to residents and students.

• Potable water from all the wells (10 in number) is monitored every week to ensure that the water does not contain coliform bacteria.
• Subsequently, wells are treated with Potassium Permanganate to maintain zero or permissible number of coliforms.
• Chlorine and Potassium Permanganate levels of the wells are monitored daily.

This enables the residents of Dayalbagh to consume water from wells without passing it through RO plant thus saving a large amount of water.

Chemical parameters (Dissolved Oxygen, Chloride, Hardness, Total dissolved Solids) are also monitored fortnightly.

Dayalbagh has given land at nominal rate for sewage treatment plant (STP) and the treated water is used for irrigation of agricultural fields so that water table in potable well waters is maintained.

STP water is also tested weekly to check Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD).

Air Quality in Dayalbagh

AIR and WATER QUALITY Monitoring and Assessment at Dayalbagh

“At Dayalbagh we have a ‘Modern Health Care Habitat’ with provisions for health security and personal security with built-in self defence mechanism”.  This objective is achieved through implementation of the Dayalbagh Sigma Six Quality, Values and Attributes model. As part of practicing this model, water and air quality are monitored regularly at Dayalbagh.

AIR QUALITY:

Regular monitoring of PM₁₀ and PM_2.5 is done using GRIMM Spectrometer at six different locations in the Dayalbagh and DEI campus.

Air Quality Index (AQI) is calculated on the basis of globally accepted United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Model. The Air Quality at Dayalbagh in comparison to Agra City (Sanjay Place UPPCB Monitor Report) is almost always better and in the SATISFACTORY OR MODERATE category of AQI. The encouraging AQI results at Dayalbagh are a result of it being a green, serene and sustainable modern eco-village. To further improve the air quality some of the recent initiatives have been as follows:

• Misting (with fine water droplets) is done four times a day to combat suspended pollution.
• Cordoning off the dust generating agricultural activities by using green canopies.
• Restricted movement of vehicles (Petrol and Diesel) is rigorously observed in Dayalbagh and commuting through public electric vehicles is encouraged.

Under Multi-Institutional pan India study, the ISRO Geosphere Biosphere Programme has equipped DEI with On-line analysers for Ozone, NOx, and CO which are recording ambient levels every 5 minutes 24x7, 365 days since 2009.
