Responsible Consumption and Production

Waste management measures of the office of the President are various requirements within the office of the President building consisting of waste management and wastewater management.

For waste management, the university asks personnel in the office and those who come to the building to separate and dispose of waste at the correct disposal points within the building as determined by the university. There are designated disposal areas and appropriate waste storage areas that are systematically separated and reused.

For wastewater management, the university sets a wastewater treatment system before being released to the public and has a person to be responsible for the wastewater treatment system. The wastewater treatment system is maintained to function normally and regularly checks water quality as well as recycles water for use within the university.
