In this ppt, parjana engineering discusses the importance of sustainable stormwater management in order to reduce flooding, pollution, and other environmental hazards. It outlines the strategies and techniques used to manage stormwater. It provides an overview of the benefits of sustainable stormwater management and offers tips on how to implement it in your community.
2. The Importance of Sustainable
Stormwater Management
Stormwater runoff is a major problem facing
communities around the world. As urbanization
continues, more and more land is covered in
impervious surfaces like concrete and asphalt,
which prevent rainwater from soaking into the
ground.
The importance of sustainable stormwater
management cannot be overstated. By
implementing sustainable practices like green
roofs, rain gardens, and permeable pavement, we
can reduce the amount of stormwater runoff and
improve the health of our waterways.
3. What is Stormwater and Why
is it a Problem?
Stormwater is rainwater or melted snow that flows
over surfaces such as roofs, roads, and parking lots.
As it flows, it picks up pollutants such as oil,
pesticides, and litter, eventually making its way
into our waterways.
This can have serious consequences for both the
environment and human health. Polluted
stormwater can harm fish and wildlife, degrade
water quality, and even cause flooding. In addition,
it can lead to expensive clean-up efforts and
damage to infrastructure.
4. The Traditional Approach to
Stormwater Management
The traditional approach to stormwater
management involves collecting rainwater in large
pipes or channels and directing it to a nearby body
of water, such as a river or lakeThe Traditional
Approach to Stormwater Management. This
approach is problematic for several reasons. First,
it often leads to flooding and erosion in the areas
where the water is collected, as the volume and
speed of the water can be overwhelming.
In addition to these issues, the traditional
approach to stormwater management is not
sustainable in the long term.
5. The Parjana Engineering
Solution
Parjana Engineering has developed a revolutionary
technology called the Energy-passive Groundwater
Recharge Product (EGRP) that addresses the
problems with traditional stormwater
management. This technology is designed to
manage stormwater at its source by allowing it to
infiltrate into the ground, rather than being
diverted to pipes and treatment plants.
The EGRP system consists of a series of
interconnected chambers that are installed
underground. These chambers allow stormwater to
slowly percolate through the soil, providing natural
filtration and recharge of groundwater.
