Vidya Bhawan Polytechnic contributes to technical knowledge of public service mostly around the institution’s subject. One such area is Sanitation, Water and Waste Resource Management. Water remains a scarce resource in southern Rajasthan, therefore particular emphasis on its conservation and recharging. The concern has led to collaborative research and work with national and international organizations. In recent times the institution is associated with the following organizations/projects:

• The institution is in the “Partnering for Mewar” project team and Center for Policy Research (New Delhi), Hindustan Zinc Limited and Udaipur Municipal Corporation. The project looks into waste reuse with Polytechnic as a significant contributor in developing know-how on the faecal sludge treatment plant.
• The institution is an important member of a team for sanitation Mapping of Udaipur; Housing Typologies, Septic Tank Assessment; and Extant of Sanitation Market Produced Septic Tank Manual. The team other than Polytechnic includes Udaipur Municipal Corporation and Center for Policy Research, New Delhi.
• Polytechnic contributed to a study—the Assessment of Micro-pollutants in Ahar River, by CSIRO Australia, Western Sydney University and Wolkem India Ltd. The study findings got published in Elsevier (Publisher) journal “Science of Environment”.

• Another quite similar project is the Integrated Water Resources Assessment of the hydrological structure of Upper Berach Basin (Ahar River), Udaipur District. The project will look into complex interactions that exist between a hydrological and human system. It will also explore how poorly managed hydrological monitoring networks may weaken water storage and aquifer recharging in the area. An issue so close to arid regions like Udaipur with seasonal river and human practices with water bodies acting as a constraint in developing a coherent water system. Insufficient knowledge around integrated water resources assessment and management in the district hamper by the overall water balance in the area.

University of Copenhagen, Denmark, will conduct the above research from October 2020 to September 2023. The other partners include the Geological Society of Denmark and Greenland, DHI India, Development Alternatives, Delhi and Vidya Bhawan Polytechnic, Udaipur.
