They have also started rain water harvesting to use recycled water to reduce energy consumption.”Average water consumption in airport operation at Mumbai is in the tune of 3-4 million litres per day. By using water conservation measures like water saving device (Aerators) at the user end like taps in toilets etc. water wastage management like leakage identification, installation of correct types of taps etc., 19% of water saving was achieved by MIAL in 2010-2011,” according to the spokesperson for MIAL quoted in the report.
