BAAU apply building standards to minimise water use 

Baku Eurasian University implements construction standards aimed at minimising water consumption. Our administration prioritises the development of structures that include facilities for water recycling and reuse. The rooftops of our buildings are engineered to effectively harvest rainwater. The campus's infrastructure has strategically positioned rainwater harvesting tanks to collect runoff from rainfall. Therefore, it can be stated that our construction standards align with protocols designed to reduce water usage. In addition, we utilise the collected rainwater to aid in construction activities throughout our vast university campus, where various construction projects are currently in progress.

The images below showcase the rainwater harvesting design features present in several buildings on campus.

Additionally, the university prefers sensor faucets to keep water consumption under control.

A water-efficient appliance usage program in a university usually includes several practical measures and appliances that help reduce water consumption. It includes low-flow taps and faucets to reduce water flow without affecting pressure. Also, dual-flush toilets have two flush options – a smaller one for liquid waste and a larger one for solid waste. The next goal is about awareness and maintenance, such as signage and training to encourage students and staff to use appliances efficiently and regular maintenance to ensure appliances work properly and don’t waste water.
