Water-conscious building standards Apply building standards to minimise water use

Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University is committed to improving water efficiency by implementing a wide range of water-saving technologies and infrastructure across the campus. These initiatives support sustainable water management while reducing unnecessary water consumption.

The campus has installed foot-operated water faucets, allowing users to open and close taps without using their hands. This simple innovation helps prevent water waste and improves hygiene.

To reduce water consumption for landscape maintenance, automatic sprinkler systems have been installed in campus gardens. These sprinklers deliver water efficiently according to irrigation needs. In addition, the Faculty of Agribusiness utilizes automatic robotic sprinklers to manage irrigation on agricultural land, ensuring optimal water use while supporting sustainable farming practices.

Syarif Hidayatullah State Islamic University also operates hydroponic and vertical gardens equipped with drip and recirculating irrigation systems. This technology minimizes water loss by continuously recycling water, making it an effective solution for water conservation.

To ensure campus safety while maintaining efficient water infrastructure, hydrants and fire safety equipment have been installed throughout the campus. Several buildings are also equipped with automatic fire suppression systems that use smoke or flame sensors to activate only when necessary, improving emergency response while preventing unnecessary water discharge.
