In May 29, 2022, at Sandy Beach Resort, School of Environment Science and Technology (INEST) has organized the installation of a water reuse system, which is from the Resort’s domestic wastewater treatment system. This activity is within the framework of the project “Collective Actions for Water Conservation” supported by the U.S. Agency for International Development – USAID and coordinated by the Center of Environment and Community Research (CECR).

The system was designed and installed with the main leadership of INEST and the support of CECR and the Faculty of Environment, Danang University of Science and Technology. The installation gained enthusiastic support of Sandy Beach Resort since the water after being treated will be used for watering plants in an area of the Resort. The equipment was carefully prepared in advance and INEST also had previous surveys and measurements, so the installation was carried out quickly in the morning.

The system have started operating since the date of installation. The system is designed automatically based on the characteristics of Sanday Beach Resort’s wastewater treatment system, so it can operate by itself without supervision of human. INEST and Danang University of Science and Technology will periodically check and record data to serve research and evaluation.

The system will be operated and measured continuously until December 2022 with the goal of accompanying businesses to demonstrate the benefits of water reuse, as a basis for developing recommendation policy on water reuse.
