1. TITLE OF THE ACTIVITY

Water Quality Analysis of R.O. Water Plants on Campus

2. NATURE OF THE ACTIVITY

Institutional Best Practice / Quality Sustenance Activity

3. ORGANIZING DEPARTMENT

Department of Chemistry, P.R. Government College (A), Kakinada

4. COLLABORATING AGENCY

District Level Water Testing Laboratory, O/o RWS & S Sub Division, Kakinada

5. VENUE / LOCATIONS COVERED

Tested R.O. plants at:

• 1 English Department
• 2 Botany Department
• 3 Arts Block

6. OBJECTIVE OF THE ACTIVITY

The objective of this activity was to ensure the quality, safety, and suitability of drinking water supplied through the R.O. water plants located in different parts of the college campus. The activity was undertaken as part of the institutional commitment towards health, hygiene, and quality maintenance, which forms an important component of the college’s best practices.

7. BACKGROUND AND NEED

Access to safe and clean drinking water is essential for maintaining the health and well-being of students, faculty, and staff. Since the R.O. water plants installed on campus are extensively used for drinking purposes, it becomes necessary to periodically assess the water quality parameters.

8. DESCRIPTION OF THE ACTIVITY

Water samples were collected from the R.O. plants located at the English Department, Botany Department, and Arts Block and submitted for analysis. The testing process included the examination of relevant physical and chemical parameters associated with potable water quality.

The initiative reflects the practical application of chemistry in day-to-day institutional welfare and demonstrates the department’s active role in campus health assurance.
