A group of students from Karachi’s Aligarh Institute of Technology (AIT) has built a special system to recycle wuzu (ablution) water, aiming to save water and help fight Pakistan’s growing water crisis.
The students named their project Nahr Al Khair, which means River of Goodness. They installed the system at Jamia Masjid Ali in Karachi’s Buffer Zone. It cleans and reuses the water used during wuzu through a three-step filtering process, helping reduce water waste and protect the environment.
The project was developed under the guidance of Engineer Syed Muhammad Saad. The team includes students Omar Ayan Abbas, Muhammad Tabrez, Muhammad Khizr, Muhammad Shayan, Muhammad Naseem, Abu Bakr, Syed Hassan, Muhammad Huzaifa, Owais Qureshi, Muhammad Zubair, Sheikh Shahzad, Syed Ammar, Muhammad Alian, Abdullah Faisal, Ali Abbas Rizvi, Syed Zulfiqar Ali, Syed Zain Ali, Syed Hamza, and Ayan.
Here’s how the system works:
- The first tank uses natural materials like stones, gravel, and charcoal to remove dirt and big particles.
- The second tank filters out smaller impurities.
- The third step allows the clean water to seep into the ground, helping recharge underground water through soil and boreholes.
