2. Understanding Rainwater
Harvesting
Definition: Rainwater harvesting is the process of collecting and
storing rainwater runoff from various surfaces such as rooftops,
roads, and parking areas.
Importance: It provides a sustainable source of fresh water, helps
meet water needs, reduces flooding, and improves groundwater
quality.
3. Designing Rainwater
Harvesting Systems
Geophysical
surveys help
locate optimal
sites for
groundwater
recharge.
Identifying
Favorable
Locations
Injection borewells
facilitate rainwater
infiltration,
improving
groundwater levels.
Recharging

4. Benefits of Rainwater
Harvesting
Freshwater Source: rainwater is a valuable freshwater source.
Statutory Compliance: compliance with regulations often requires
rainwater harvesting.
Water Needs: helps meet water needs for various purposes.
Flood Reduction: reduces flooding by managing stormwater runoff.
Groundwater Recharge: contributes to recharging groundwater and
improving its quality.
6. Collection and Reuse of Rainwater
Collection Methods: Rainwater is
collected in tanks and filtered for reuse.
Submersible Pumps: Pumps facilitate the
extraction of stored rainwater for various
purposes.
Quality Assurance: Filters ensure
collected water meets quality standards
for reuse.
Benefits: Enables water reuse and
minimizes flooding risks.
