Installation of Gama Rainfilter at Science Techno Park

PT Gama Inovasi Berdikari is a business accelerator company under Gadjah Mada University that provides several services and innovative products, including the Gama Rain Filter. Gama Rain Filter is a system that captures rainwater that falls on buildings or roofs of houses. It then filters and can be accommodated. After that, the water in the reservoir can be directly utilised or processed into ready-to-use clean water and used as drinking water.

Rainwater Management at UGM Faculty of Dentistry Campus

Rainwater management on campus is an important part of efforts to preserve the environment and sustainability of water resources. The Faculty of Dentistry Universitas Gadjah Mada (FKG UGM) strives to utilise rainwater as a reusable resource. The utilisation is for non-potable needs. Non-potable is a term used to describe unsafe or unsafe water for drinking. Non-potable water can be used for purposes such as garden watering, toilet flushing, and HVAC system cooling, but humans cannot consume it. Using non-potable water helps reduce dependence on clean water sources and supports more sustainable management of water resources.
