The Analysis of the Possible Use of Harvested Rainwater and its Potential for Water Supply in Real Conditions
Authors: , ,
Abstract: Activities such as flushing toilets, washing floors or cars, irrigation orlaundry can be easily replaced by rainwater instead of precious drinking water. Continuous growth of population and consequent growing need for drinking water is a global problem. Taking into account that there are still 768 million people in the world without access to water and there are still more than 2.5 billion people without access to improved sanitation[10], any way to save drinking waterhas a great importance.
