5000 KLD (5MLD) Sewage Treatment Plant
Lovely professional university treats the waste water using three sewage waste water treatment plants (one 5000KLD & two 10 KLD). All the waste water from academic, administrative, hostels etc. Is collected via central pipe line that is taken to main STP of 5000 KLD. It is ensured that the bio-medical waste water is pre-treated with 1% hypo solution in loft tank before discharge into main waste water pipeline. The amount of waste water treated using STP is recorded on daily basis.

STP Treated water
Network of Water Pipes: There is a network of water pipes in place to ensure that sewage from various sources within the university, including blocks, labs, hostels, cafes, canteens, residential flats, and laundries, is directed to the Sewage Treatment Plant for further treatment. To facilitate the distribution of treated water for horticulture, the university has installed a dedicated pipe-line that it's a 9-inch diameter pipeline, extending over a kilometer in length. This infrastructure allows for efficient and widespread use of the treated water.
Treated Water Usage: The treated water from the STP’s is not wasted but put to good use. It is supplied for horticultural purposes across the university. This is an excellent example of water recycling and sustainability, as treated wastewater is being used to irrigate and maintain green spaces on campus.
Clean water and sanitation annual report
The attached Annual Report provides an overview of Waste Water Treatment initiative, highlighting the university's dedication to sustainable water management. LPU operates a 5000 KLD (5 MLD) Sewage Treatment Plant, along with two additional 10 KLD units, to treat wastewater from all campus facilities. A robust pipeline network directs sewage from academic buildings, hostels, labs, and other sources to the treatment plant, where wastewater is carefully processed. Treated water is then distributed via a dedicated 9-inch, kilometer-long pipeline for horticultural use, promoting water recycling and reducing freshwater consumption. This report details LPU's collaborations with national and international bodies on wastewater treatment and management, reinforcing the campus as a model for sustainable practices and effective water resource use.
