Philippine communities may soon be environmentally sustainable. The solution may be found in the green model that the University of the Philippines-Diliman College of Science developed through an automated environmental monitoring technology and other environmental testing procedures
The AirboxSense was co-developed by UP and foreign university partners with funding from the Asia-India Science, Technology and Innovation Cooperation . They collected water samples at least once a month and analyzed them in the laboratory to assess factors, such as the presence of excessive nutrients and suspended solids, irregular pH, and alkalinity, among other parameters.UPD-CS also aims to lessen its ecological footprint through solar power installations throughout the NSC, Cayetano added.
“UPD-CS Dean Giovanni Tapang presented the idea to Chancellor Fidel [Nemenzo], and it aligns with the Chancellor’s initiative to make UPD an environmentally sustainable campus,” she added.The UPD-CS and the IESM collaborated with the Rotary Club of Makati on adapting a system that reports real-time data on air quality through the Airtoday.ph web site.
She cited the UPD Electrical and Electronics Engineering Institute for helping automate the AirboxSense through the UP Center for Air Research program. She added that they “want to get the rate of increase of emissions during the resumption of activities, such as face-to-face classes and the opening of the UPD campus and offices.”
