Abstract

Water wastage in building use afflicts not only Brazil but also most countries in theworld, stressing potable water availability and supply. Water sources still suffer anthropogenicinterference through improper disposal of chemical wastes and organic matter. Pioneeringstudies and initiatives for change in society generally begin at universities campuses, as practicalexperiments and knowledge production and diffusion media. The present research used thebuilding that houses the undergraduate and graduate programs on environmental engineeringat the Federal University of Espirito Santo as a case study. Its equivalent population and waterconsumption and wastage were estimated. The results pointed to the immediate need toimplement a rational water use program at the university as a whole, since no leakage orconsumption controls are implemented not only in the case studied, but also in any buildingwithin the UFES campus.
