INTRODUCTION
โ€ข Rainwater harvesting(RWH)isthe
collection and storage of rain, rather
than allowing it to run off.
โ€ข Rainwater iscollected from a roof-like
surface and redirected to a tank, cistern,
deep pit(well, shaft, or borehole),
aquifer or a reservoir with percolation.
TYPESOF RAINWATER HARVESTING
โ€ข Surface Runoff Harvesting
Areas dwelling in urban cities, haverainwater flows away assurface
runoff. Thisrunoff canbe caught and utilize for recharging the aquifers
by adopting appropriate methods.
โ€ข Rooftop RainwaterHarvesting
It refers to the systemof catching rainwater where ever it falls. Inrooftop
harvesting, the roof turnsinto a catchment,and the collection of rainwater
from the roof isdone via a houseor a buliding.
TECHNOLOGYREGARDING
RAINWATER HARVESTING
โ€ข CollectionArea
Thecollection area isthe surface area from where rainfall is collected.
โ€ข ConveyanceSystem
Thisiscomprised of the gutters and pipes that connectthe collection area
to the storage tanks.
โ€ข Storage Facilities
Thisiswhere water isstored for future water needs.Usually,thesefacilities
are made of reinforced concrete, stainlesssteel, or fiberglass.

โ€ข Utilizing rainwater for sustainable development and
enhancingthe availability of groundwater in a specific place
and time.
โ€ข T
oescalate infiltration of rainwater in the subsoilwhich had
abated drastically in urban areas because of the paving of
open areas.
โ€ข Bydilution, improving the quality of ground water.
CONCLUSION
Harvesting and collection of rainwater isan adequate strategy that canbe
usedto address the problem of water crisisglobally. Theuseof a rainwater
harvesting systemprovides excellent meritsfor every community.Thissimple
water conservation methodcanbe a boost to an incredible solution in areas
where there isenoughrainfall but not enoughsupply of groundwater.
