Water harvesting – a solution to drought & falling level of ground water ...Sumit Dharmarao
India is one of the growing economy in the world. Nearly 65% population of nation depends upon agriculture to fulfill their needs, eventually whole economy of nation depends on Agriculture. Agricultural production based on availability of water. Due to high industrialization and deforestation rain rate is decreasing in Indian subcontinent which results in frequent droughts. Due to drought there is sudden reduction in agricultural production and also increased pressure on ground water. Shortness of water is coped by ground water. Every ones thirst of water results in undeclared competition eventually water level below ground falls down. Water harvesting means saving & storing every drop of water is the only solution to frequent drought & maintaining ground water level.
Levels in planning, Functional requirements of water resources projects, steps in
water resources planning, Environmental aspects in water resources planning.
Presentation tries to look at the role and importance of water as a scarce and valuable commodity which needs to be preserved and conserved in the context of built environment

Recycled water is wastewater that has been processed through primary, secondary and tertiary treatment and disinfected with chlorine.
Man-made water recycling, also known as water reclamation or water reuse, centers on using treated wastewater.
Recycled water, also known as "greywater," derives from residential water uses such as the bath, shower, washing machine, sink etc.
Across the globe, 2 out of 10 people do not have access to safe drinking water, and in the U.S., many states face water shortages and droughts.
In the U.S., we spend billions of dollars treating water to drinking water quality when we use only 10% of it for drinking and cooking, then flush most of the rest down the toilet or drain.
All water is recycled and reused as a part of natural water processes such as the hydrologic cycle.
Recycling wastewater can extend water supplies, improve water quality, reduce discharge and disposal costs of wastewater, and save energy.
Using recycled water reduces reliance on scarce and expensive surface water. It can also minimize groundwater overdraft and reduce discharges of treated wastewater into rivers and oceans.
Reduces the need to import water over long distances or pump our limited groundwater supplies
Water conservation refers to reducing the usage of water and recycling of waste water for different purposes like domestic usage, industries, agriculture etc. This technical article highlights most of the popular methods of water conservation. A special note on rainwater harvesting is also provided.

Water and Wastewater Mangement in India 2010 - SampleNetscribes, Inc.
Water is one of the most invaluable resources of nature and increasing water consumption is leading to its depletion. Various sectors across India are rapidly increasing and are actively contributing to the pollution of surface as well as groundwater. This calls for the active need of water management. Although water has been one of the most thriving and important issues amongst the government concerns, the private players are actively granting their support to market efficient techniques and equipments to manage water. The wastewater treatment market in India is growing at 20% and techniques like watershed management, rainwater harvesting, desalination, filtration, river-interlinking, effluent treatment and sewage treatment are finding huge importance in major cities which are the major contributors to water pollution in India.
The report begins with an overview of water situation and consumption structure in India across various sectors namely, agriculture, domestic and industries showing the growth in water consumption across the masses in India. This is followed by a section which depicts the amount of wastewater generated across sectors and the level of degradation.
It also highlights the lakes and water bodies that are under threat of depleting and being polluted.
The market overview section gives the size and growth of the wastewater treatment market and shows the various techniques of water and wastewater treatment. It also gives an in-depth analysis of the various techniques and their status in India. The characteristics and trends in the market have been analyzed and include increasing urbanization, initiatives taken at the corporate level, initiatives of various research and training institutes, increasing licensing agreements, various summits and seminars, initiatives for consumer awareness and public private partnerships. A brief analysis of the issues/challenges hindering growth are also highlighted including policy failures and institutional weaknesses, coordination and technological loopholes, multiplicity of organizations and inadequacy in generation of revenue to meet costs.
Various government bodies and programmes as well as initiatives by the NGOs that have been actively involved in conserving water and regulating its consumption and pollution have been showcased.
The competitive landscape provides a look into the nature of the market and the activities of the players and the level of competition between them. It also compares the private players according to the products and services provided by them. Brief profile with short description of the major domestic and foreign players is also included. Furthermore, key developments in the market over the last one year have also been highlighted.

2. 1. INTRODUCTION
2. HOW TO EFFECTIVELY ENGAGE THE STAKEHOLDERS
AND THEIR BUILD CAPACITY FOR NCWRM
3. EXAMPLES OF GOOD PRACTICES AND COLLABORATION
BETWEEN IRRIGATION AND OTHER USERS
4. SPANISH DATA
5. CONCLUSIONS
3. 1. INTRODUCTION
WATER REUSE AND INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT
• Water reuse helps to improve the IWRM, providing
greater assurance of supply to users in several ways.
– Replacement pre-potable water for regenerated water.
– The contribution of regenerated water for irrigation without
allocation or new irrigation.
– Artificial recharge of aquifers with regenerated water.
4. 2. HOW TO EFFECTIVELY ENGAGE THE
STAKEHOLDERS AND THEIR BUILD CAPACITY
FOR NCWRM
These reasons could be summarized in 3 benefits:
economical, social and environmental
– Economic benefits
– Social benefits
– Environmental benefits
5. • Economic benefits:
– It provides quality food production, ensuring economic
source in a constant way.
– Reduction of expensive wastewater treatments by
recycling nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus
compounds in field water application.
– These compounds are beneficial to crops and degrade
organic matter.
– It is a new water source. It is a greater security of supply,
especially in semi-arid Mediterranean countries.
6. • Social benefits:
– The increase of water supply sources
– The maintenance of the rural population
– It reduces the spread of urbanism
– Quality tourism. Irrigation as a landscape element
7. • Environmental benefits:
– It avoids polluted water discharging to the rivers.
– It can stop the aquifers overexploitation and promote
recharge.
– Irrigation is the last user that purifies the water.
– It preserves and improves the environment and wetlands.
– It reduces the input of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
The irrigated crops are real sinks of CO2.
8. 3. EXAMPLES OF GOOD PRACTICES AND COLLABORATION
BETWEEN IRRIGATION AND OTHER USERS
• Irrigators Community of Castellón which carried out a study together
with the University of the effect of irrigation on orange trees with
wastewaters.
• Irrigators Community Irrigation Canal Bajo del Algar
In 1983, the community started to use wastewater
This reuse of regenerated water is accomplished through a
commitment by the City of Benidorm and Irrigators Community. In the
agreement, the price of the wastewater is "Zero."
All treatment costs were borne by the City Council of Benidorm..
9. 5. SOME SPANISH DATA (2009):
• Wastewater treated users of the total:
– Irrigation: 72%
– Industrial: 4%
– Enviromental: 5%
– Golf course: 13%
– Domestic: 6%
Flow available Reuse water % of
3 3
(hm /year) flow (hm /a) reuse
3.375,16 447,34 13,25%
• The current amount of water reuse flows is: 447 Hm3/year
• It is foreseen to reuse 650 Hm3/year : total amount of 1.100 Hm3/year
10. 4. CONCLUSIONS
– Water reuse for irrigation provides a guarantee of water
supply much higher than conventional sources, especially in
coastal areas.
– Importance of the achievement agreement between the
agricultural and domestic users
– Irrigators Communities which give up their water rights for
domestic users shall have a preferential right to reuse that
water, once it has been treated by the first user (domestic).
