Water pollution control in campus area

TSUL Policy on water pollution control

Tashkent State Law University Adopted Water Pollution Control Policy

It is created by the agreement from the Ministry of Water Resources of the Republic of Uzbekistan.

Water Treatment Processes

The Bozsuv water treatment plant, located in the Zangiota district, processes 600-620 thousand cubic meters of sewage water per day from 5 districts of Tashkent. The Salor water treatment plant in the Sergeli district treats sewage from 6 districts, including the newly formed New Life District.

Cleaning Stages

Sewage water entering the facilities undergoes several cleaning stages: sedimentation, purification, sludge extraction, oxygen supply, and neutralization with hypochlorite. Chlorine production plants operate in each facility, preparing chlorine used in the cleaning and neutralization processes.

Waste from the water entering the city is separated and sent to farmers' fields, where it serves as nutrients for crops. Approximately 2 million cubic meters of wastewater from the population are treated daily at these plants.

Natural Cleaning

Located strategically across the city, water flows into the treatment plants under its own pressure. Natural cleaning methods are employed, and the treated water is examined in specialized laboratories. This water is suitable for various uses, including fish ponds and farming, though it is not meant for consumption.

The purified water is then directed to irrigated lands around the city through the Salor canals and the Chirchik River.

"TRAVEL AROUND UZBEKISTAN!"

Visit to Jade Lake

On April 14, 2019, a group of activists from the Union of Youth of Uzbekistan visited the Jade Lake in the Boston district of Tashkent, recognized as "One of the 7 Wonders of Uzbekistan".

The students enjoyed the stunning nature surrounding the lake. They observed the clean and transparent water, noting the absence of living creatures due to the low water temperature. This trip provided an interesting experience for the students and set a refreshing tone for their pre-exam vacation.
