Rainwater Harvesting Experience at NIFT, Hyderabad_SMARAN_2013India Water Portal
The NIFT campus used to require 15 water tankers per day. After implementing rooftop rain water harvesting to three working borewells and to one abandoned bore hole in July-2011, the water tankers supply reduced to 8 tankers from 15 per day and at present to Zero. The cost incurred for implementing was Rs 5 lakhs and the revenue saved is Rs 30 lakhs per year with almost zero maintenance required.
Water management is a global issue and it is the prime duty of all the people to save and conserve water so that it can be passed on safely to the future generation. Viewers please watch the ppt and leave your likes and comments.

Here are some nice water management systems kicking in in Bengaluru.These include rainwater harvesting,restoration of lakes, groundwater recharge,waste-water treatment and the creation of wetlands.
It describes necessity of rain water harvesting, what is the solution, methods and techniques of rain water harvesting.
Additional it also includes Packaged water treatment, its necessity and working.
The issue of supplying adequate water to meet societal needs is one of the most urgent and significant challenges faced by decision-makers.
Rainwater harvesting is an excellent means of supplementing water for both potable and non-potable purposes.
Rainwater harvesting describes processes in which precipitation that falls on a site is diverted, captured, and stored for use on-site, as opposed to allowing it to run off, evaporate, or infiltrate into the soil.

Ecosan ,rainwater harvesting,water in Rural Karnataka,Izenrain man
Both access to water and the access to sanitation remains a challenge to a majority of househols in rural Karnataka, India With groundwater as a major source for over 90 % of the habitations primarily through deep borew-wells and the need for scarce energy to pump this water to cisterns , intermittent water supply is the order of the day The only way households can access water is by storing it STORAGE DETERMINES ACCESS. Rinwater harvesting is one way to augment supply especially in the rainy season The rainwater tank also doubles up as a storage system in the non -rainy season .
Sanitation is a big challenge since all of it is water borne and requires water for ablution purpose too. One way to overcome that is by using a source separating Ecosan system which requires very little water and also converts urine as a fertilizer.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

• 65 % of the net irrigated land gets water
from bore-wells
• 85 % of rural habitations depend on
groundwater
10. Rainwater harvesting

• Exploding water demand in cities
• Problems of urbanization : water shortage and flooding
• Need to manage water in cities holistically
Case study of a city as an example
18. • New paradigm required
• Multiple sourcing of water
• Source control for flood management
• Institutional coordination
• People’s participation in solution’s
• More space for ‘softer’ solutions like education

24. Bangalore need : limitations
• Production cost of water is very high at Rs 18/ ( Rs23.47)- a kilo-liter. It will
become Rs 26/- a kilo-liter.
• Ceiling on the availability : 1,500 mld. Good enough for 7 million people only
i.e. by the year 2011.
• Surface and groundwater on the decline.
25. Why harvest rainwater ?
• Provides supplemental water for city
• Recharges groundwater potential lost due to urban ‘crusting’
• Reduce ecological footprint of water (power/water nexus)
• Helps manage urban floods
• Prevents salinity ingress in coastal area
26.
27. The new rwh bye-law
• Create recharge or storage
– @ 20 litres per square metre of roof area
– @ 10 litres per square metre of paved area
Minimum depth of recharge well 3 metres
29. Hydro-flows
• Surface runoff 15 90
• Recharge 10 5
• Evapo-transpiration 75 5
• The aim of rainwater harvesting is bio-
mimicry.

Use Litres/person
Drinking 3
Cooking 4
Bathing 20
Flushing 40
Washing-clothes 25
Washing Utensils 20
Gardening 23
Total 135
Consumption range :

31. What is rainwater harvesting ?
The collection and storage of rain for future productive use
32. Capital cost – in Bangalore
• Piped water supply :
1,500 Million Litres per Day
Investment Rs.60,000 million ($ 1500 million)
• Rainwater :
3,000 Million Litres per Day
Rs. “0.00”(zero) ?
Can a better balance be reached ??
33. How to harvest rainwater ?
• Understand rain (quantum/pattern/intensity)
• Cascade capture
• House/Apartment/Institution/Industry/Park
• Storm water harvesting in ‘tanks’/lakes
• Ground water recharge

50. Site Selection for Infiltration
Many factors affect the suitability of a site as an infiltration facility for the
disposal of stormwater. Among these, the following are most important:
• Depth to groundwater
• Surface soil type
• Underlying soil type
• Vegetation cover of the infiltrating surface
• The uses of the infiltrating surfaces
• The ratio of tributary impervious surface to the infiltrating surface
51. If the pit aims to recharge a borewell, it should be built as close to it as possible.
Ideally it should be in the valley of the surface layout.
The making of a recharge pit : locality
Borewell and recharge pit
52. Site identification
The site should have a sufficient clean and large catchment.
It should also permit fast infiltration and percolation.
59. Rainwater sent for recharge

60. Procedure ….. continued
• Locate recharge well in the channel or off the
channel
• Make arrangements to remove silt and leaves
before water enters recharge well
• Monitor the rate of recharge and decide on the
number of recharge wells necessary for the
catchment
