ABSTRACT
Rooftop rainwater harvesting is the technique through which

rainwater is captured from the roof catchment and stored in tank and
well. harvested rainwater can be stored in underground water tank by
adopting artificial recharge techniques to meet the college needs through
storage in tank. the main objective of rooftop rainwater harvesting is to
make water available for future use. Capturing and storing rainwater for
use in particularly important in when water is not available at particular
time.
Water is one of the most commonly used substances on our earth.

We need water for all our activities in day-to-day life. Water supply in
urban area is always shortage against the total demand. Surface water
inadequate to meet our demand and we have to depend on ground water.
Due to rapid urbanization, infiltration of rainwater into the subsoil has
decreased drastically and recharging of ground water has diminished.
This scenario requires an alternative source to bridge the gap between
demand and supply. Rainwater, which is the purest form of water, would
be an immediate source to augment the existing water supply by
"catching water wherever it falls".
Rainwater Harvesting is the process of collecting and storing

rainwater in a scientific and controlled manner for future use. Rainwater
Harvesting in urban areas include roof top rainwater harvesting,
rainwater harvesting in paved and un-paved areas (open fields, parks,
pavement landscapes etc.). Rainwater Harvesting in large areas with open
ponds, lakes, tanks etc.

CHAPTER 01
INTRODUCTION
Rainwater harvesting refers to collection of rain falling on earth surfaces
for beneficial uses before it drains away as run-off. Since historical times water
harvesting is being done through roof catchments and ground catchments, the
rainwater is being stored in earthen tanks for household and agricultural
applications.
Rainwater harvesting system is a collection of water from the roof and
storage of this water in underground storage tank. Water is stored in the tank for
the purpose of distributing the good quality of water. Rainwater harvesting
system is easy to construct and its maintenance is simple.
After water is stored in underground tank the water is transferred to the
overhead tank which is generally located in the terrace of the building. Form the
overhead tank the water is supplied for the drinking purpose through the
distribution pipes.
[1.1] Problem Definition:-
Now in India water scarcity and water pollution are the most concern able
problem. This problem of scarcity is due to limited water resources and
increasing of population day to day in India and around world.
We found that in our college scarcity of water, and also in this area water
is not provided by Municipal Corporation. Then all area is depending on the
ground water, and in this area ground water quality is bed. Due to more use of
ground water, ground water table is decrease.
[1.2] Aim and objective of the project: -

The main object of rooftop harvesting is to make good quality water
available for drinking purpose in college building. After storing of required
quantity of drinking water,we done well recharge for the increasing ground
water table and to improve quality of ground water.
[1.3] Problem specification: -

In the last few decades start problem of water shortage and start need of
rainwater harvesting. In this last few decades come many different design of
water harvesting techniques. Water harvesting is done by many places and by
more than one methods, some places water harvest in farm as “khet talavdi” but this
storage ofrainwater is some time not suitable for the drinking purpose. So that
start requirement of rooftop rainwater harvesting.
But in this harvesting technique required special storage tank for save
rainwater. This water is use for drinking purpose so required proper collecting
system so that need of suitable design.
[1.4] Advantages
 Rainwater harvesting provides a good supplement to other water sources thus
relieving pressure on other water sources.
 It can supply as a buffer and can be used in times of emergency or breakdown
of public water supply systems.
 Helps reduce the storm drainage load and flooding in the cities.
 It is a flexible technology and can be built to require meets of any range. Also
the construction, operation and maintenance is not very labour intensive in
most systems.
 Prevents water wastage by arresting run off as well as prevents soil erosion and
mitigates flood.
 Sustains and safeguards existing water table through recharge.
 Arrests sea-water intrusion and prevents salination of ground water.
 Rainwater harvesting can reduce salt accumulation in the soil which can be
harmful to root growth. When rainwater percolates into the soil, it forces the
salts down and away from the root zone area. This allows for greater root
growth and water uptake, which increases the drought tolerance of plants.
 Rain-water is a clean and pure source of drinking water which requires minimal
chemical treatment as the amount of pollutants are not much.
[1.5] Future of Rain water harvesting

 Rainwater harvesting systems serve as an alternative decentralized water source
especially in the age when groundwater supplies are depleting and municipal
water infrastructures are facing high replacement costs.
 The use of decentralized rainwater harvesting systems is growing nationally
and internationally, especially in industrial countries like Asia, Europe and the
US.
[1.6] Components of Rain water harvesting
CHAPTER 02
Installation of rainwater harvesting system
[2.1] Problem Definition:-
A rainwater harvesting system collects water from a house’s roof to be
used in the garden or for some domestic appliances. A rainwater harvesting
system can be installed to save water, or planners may ask for a system to be
installed to help with potential local flooding issues.
[2.2] Key consideration for installing a rainwater harvesting system :-

 Presuming the system has been sized correctly, there are a few key elements to
consider when installing a rainwater harvesting system:
[2.2.1] Drainage
It is important to bring together all downpipes into one pipe, for entry into
the tank. They should only carry roof water; surface water should bypass the
rainwater system as it can contain dirt and oil. It is important to ensure that
pipework is kept as shallow as possible. If it’s too deep (beyond a meter), the
tank will have to be installed deep in the ground which will have an impact on
the ability to clean the filter.
[2.2.2]Installing the tank

 In most cases a flat, shallow tank is preferable. This avoids deep excavations
and makes future maintenance easier.
 The tank will have an inflow and an overflow. The overflow needs to go to a
soak away or surface water drain. It is important not to go too close to the
foundations of the property. If you are tight for space, then a good rule of thumb
is the tank needs to be at least twice the distance away from the building as it is
deep in the ground.
 Backfilling around a tank should be done with concrete or a compactable gravel,
depending on the tank. We only supply tanks that are strong enough for gravel
backfill but there are some cheap tanks that require concrete.
[2.2.3]Installing the pump

A pump needs to be installed in the tank to send the water back to the
property. It is important that the pump is not carried or lowered by its cable –
this is a common problem which can cause problems with water getting into the
electrics. Lower the pump with a rope to prevent any damage. The pump pipe
connected to the pump must be green and black MDPE pipe (similar to standard
water pipe). It is vitally important that fittings are sealed and completely
watertight; the use of PTFE tape is recommended for the fitting that goes
directly on the pump.
[2.2.4]Internal plumbing
The internal pipework must be a dedicated feed to the toilets and washing
machine. There can be no physical connection between the mains water supply
and the rainwater supply, so your plumber must be aware of this while he is
working on the installation. Pipe marking tape must also be used to identify the
internal plumbing. Many suppliers do not supply this as part of the kit, therefore
you should check when ordering. It is also important that you label the water
main to identify that there is a rainwater recovery system installed in the
property. You also need to label outside taps and appliances to ensure the water
supply is not misidentified. Again, ensure you have labels included with the kit
upon ordering.
[2.3] Other things to consider
[2.3.1]Filtration
Leaf filters are mostly built into the tanks and filters are also installed on
the pump to stop particles coming through. If necessary, you can also buy fine
particle filters which can be installed within the property to ensure there is no
risk of any small particles blocking toilet valves. Our systems include a very
fine particle filter with the kit to ensure you get no problems when the system is
being used.
[2.3.2] Mains backup system

To ensure there is an uninterrupted water supply to the building, a mains
water top up is used to feed a small amount of mains water back to the tank in
the event that there is no rain and the tank is almost empty. This is normally a
magnetic valve and sensor. The valve opens when the sensor in the tank
registers there no water.
The sensor should be set very slightly higher than the inlet of the pump.
The mains back up kit, which is sometimes a box unit, needs to be
installed in the house. This is normally done in a utility room or under a sink. It
is important that the water can flow back to the tank through a dedicated
110mm pipe, or via the drainage from the roof.
There must also be an air gap between your mains water and the pipe that
it feeding the tank. This prevents the possibility of cross contamination between
mains water and rainwater.
The quality of the mains back up kit will depend of the system you have
purchased. Some use heavy duty brass magnetic valves and probe sensors, other
cheaper systems use lower quality valves and cheap float switches. With this, it
doesn’t pay to scrimp on quality.
[2.3.3] Sign off from the water authority

The water authority will want to make sure you have adhered to the
regulations; therefore you must be able to prove the following:
 Identifying labels are installed at the appropriate locations
 The pipe from the pump is regulation green and black pipe
 The mains water top up has an air gap to prevent cross contamination
 Your internal pipe work has identifying taps
[2.4]Summery :- 5 key tips
[2.4.1]Keep tank as shallow as possible

This is not only good for you as it requires less digging and less
excavated earth, it is better for the homeowner as the filter is then easy to
access.
[2.4.2]Test pump when complete system is installed

Once the system has been installed and all the plumbing has been done,
test the pump by flushing a toilet. The pump should turn on to feed the toilet
and off again when the cistern is full. The pump should then stay off. If it turns
back on again then you have a small leak in the pipework
[2.4.3]Always use a particle filter

Whilst standard rainwater filters are good, installing a fine particle filter
will ensure it is not possible for any fine particles to get into the toilet valves
creating a leak. Leaks will cause the pump to turn on and off so this “belt and
braces” measure is highly recommended.
[2.4.4]Add a pressure vessel

A pressure vessel (or expansion vessel) like on a heating system, helps to
maintain the pressure in the pipework. This is very advantageous with a
rainwater harvesting system as it can stop a pump from turning on in the even
that someone leaves an outside tap dripping. This will can prolong the life of
and protect the pump.
[2.4.5]Keep things clean

We’ve seen many builders have to return to properties to unblock toilet
valves because too much debris has entered the tank during the installation. Try
to keep the tank clean and make sure that everyone on site knows there is a
rainwater harvester connected to the drainage. Furthermore, once the roof has
been constructed, you may get a small amount of grit entering the tank, this
should be caught by the filter but we would highly suggest checking the filter
and giving it a clean prior to handover to the client.

Evaluating Rainwater Harvesting System for School

Buildings
Manoj K. Jha and Nishant Shah

Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering,
North Carolina A&T State University, Greensboro, North Carolina, USA
Summary:Freshwater is becoming limited as our climate and weather
pattern changes. In this study, a rainwater harvesting system was evaluated
for collecting and utilizing rainwater for uses in non-potable purposes.
Water-Balance was carried out for two design scenarios: Single tank and
double tank, for irrigation in all main fields (202,724 ft2). The irrigation
demand for the entire field was estimated to be about 1.08 million gallons
on average after analyzing 14 years of data (2000-13). Installing a single
tank of 210,000 gallon capacity was found to reduce the demand by 23%,
whereas double tank installation was found to reduce the demand by about
10% on an annual basis. For these demand, irrigation needs has to depend
on other sources such as city water supply or school’s retention pond. The
cost-benefit analysis revealed that the system will have estimated initial
cost of $85,000 (single tank installation). The corresponding annualized
cost of ownership is $5,215 while projected savings on annual water bills is
$6,079. The system could be paid off early, resulting in savings of about
$45,000 for the life of the system. The system was found to benefit
financially while contributing to the environment by conserving the
freshwater from non-potable use and reducing hydrologic footprint by
harvesting the stormwater runoff.

Development of rainwater harvesting technology for
securing domestic water supply in Ibadan, Nigeria
Department of Civil Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, University of Ibadan,
Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria
Department of Environmental Health Sciences, Faculty of Public Health, University
of Ibadan, Ibadan, Oyo State,
Summary: In both rural and urban areas, supplying adequate water to meet
increasing population water demand is a major challenge faced by decision-
makers in developing countries like Nigeria. This is as a result of the failure of
conventional or municipal water supply systems to meet the challenges of
providing clean water for the populace. People result to digging shallow and
deep wells indiscriminately to supplement their daily water needs. As a result,
the groundwater table would have been falling, causing hydrological imbalance.
Domestic Roof-water Harvesting (DRWH) and groundwater recharge provide
innovative solution to the inadequate water supply. In this study, a complete
RWH technology was designed and constructed for a household, where public
water system was non-existent. The RWH technology was incorporated into the
existing shallow well water system. Water samples from the RWH system and
shallow well were analysed using standard methods. With roof area of 70 m2,
21 m3 reservoirs was required for dry period. The Hardness, Alkalinity,
Chloride, Iron and Nitrate of the harvested water showed values of 20.0, 21.0,
15.0, 0.2 and 2.0 mg/l respectively while pH was 6.8. The values were below
WHO guideline limits for drinking water. Safety measures were taken to ensure
that the harvested rainwater was of good quality. The study revealed that RWH
technology is a viable and reliable water supply option in both urban and rural
areas for domestic purposes.

Summary: This paper reveals the study of low cost traditional water
harvesting structures that helps in improving the socio-economic status of the
poor farmers of the hill region. In the foothill region of North Western
Himalayan region of India, the soil erosio26n has converted most of the fertile
soils into barren, fallow and degraded lands. It is estimated that about 40 per
cent of the total geographical area of Himachal Pradesh, Uttrakhand and Jammu
and Kashmir is highly degraded. Soil loss through erosion is about 3.6 to 80 t
ha-1. The farmers are not aware of rainwater management for storage and
ground water recharge. The major constraints identified for conservation and
management of water and soil in the area includes lack of technical knowledge
and poor economic status of the farmers. Assessment of the area showed that if
rainwater is conserved vis-à-vis managed properly and existing technologies are
refined for specific land and pedospheric characteristics, it would rehabilitate
the degraded lands and in turn increase the productivity in the area. Low cost
farm ponds are a better option for collecting rainwater excess during monsoon
periods for utilization for irrigation. The most efficient and cheapest way of
conserving rainwater at the agricultural farm was found to be in- situ runoff
management, which also reduces soil losses and increases the opportunity time
for ground water recharging. The earthen embankment for rainwater harvesting
has cost benefit ratio of 1.38:1. In addition, good results of harvesting and
storage are being achieved in ferro-cement water storage structures of different
dimensions of 3 to 5 m deep and 1 to 3 m in diameter.

Rainwater Harvesting in the Southwestern United States

A research paper by Todd L. Gaston
Summary: With the passage of the nation's first municipal rainwater harvesting
ordinance for commercial projects, Tucson placed itself at the forefront of the
national rainwater harvesting movement. The ordinance calls for 50 percent of
water used for landscaping on new commercial properties to come from
harvested rainwater. Looking forward, the law will require this proportion of
water used in landscaping to be increased to 75 percent within three years of the
property being legally occupied. The only U.S. law exceeding this scope in
required rainwater harvesting is in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where no reliable
underground fresh water source is available.
Western states’ water law has not always allowed municipalities to be so
welcoming to rainwater harvesting. Until 2009 the state of Colorado deemed it
illegal to capture rainwater off of one’s rooftop, as it infringed on the supply of
senior water rights holders downstream. Since then, state law now allows for
residences with private well entitlements to harvest rainwater. Many in the state
legislature are looking to expand the scope of permitted rainwater harvesting
based on recent studies showing that most precipitation never makes it to
waterways, thereby challenging the “rooftops are tributaries” assumption that
has pervaded Colorado state water law for the last century.
The state of Colorado was not alone in its banning of rainwater harvesting. Utah
and Washington State had similar laws as of 2009. “Prior appropriation” has
th st
dominated western water law since the 19 century, but each state adhering to
the doctrine takes a unique approach to water rights concerning precipitation.
With the realities of prolonged drought, growing population pressures, and the
unpredictability of climate change, the 21century presents a gamut of water
shortage issues for southwestern states in particular. It is not a surprise then that
many southwestern states have shown a willingness to review current rainwater
harvesting policies.
This paper reviews past and current water law and resultant rainwater harvesting
policies in the Four Corners states: Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah.
State and local municipal policies, along with their legal foundations, are
compared and contrasted with the intent of identifying a trend concerning this
issue in the southwestern United States. Policy recommendations for the
furthering of, or adoption of, rainwater harvesting polices are made based on
this analysis. A background of rainwater harvesting is provided including a look
at different techniques, the benefits and costs, and a brief history.

Summary: Water shortage has been recognised as one of the key issues
facing many countries. Fortunately, there are relatively abundant water
resources available in Ireland because of its plenty of rainfall. However, Ireland
will inevitably encounter water shortage in the future, especially in urban areas.
The water consumption per capita per day in Ireland is one of the highest in
Europe. The water demand is still increasing due to population growth and
higher standard of living. The use of domestic rainwater harvesting and
greywater treatment systems has the potential to supply nearly 94% of domestic
water in Irish households. The utilisation of these systems can help Irish
householders achieve significant water savings and avoid the domestic water
bills that are due to be reintroduced. It also helps take pressure of the centralised
water supply to meet the increasing water demand in Ireland and eliminates
issues such as high leakage during delivery and large treatment costs for
domestic utilisation. Domestic rainwater harvesting and greywater treatment
systems can play a very important role in future water management and
prospective sustainable living in Ireland.

CONCLUSION
Rainwater harvesting is simple & cost effective. If such simple measures

to “Catch water where it falls”, is taken by individuals, most of the water
management problems in our state can be solved. The scope for development
under Panchayat Raj should be fully utilized to conserve precious fresh water
to solve the water scarcity.
Harvesting & conserving water is every individual’s duty.Every drop of

rain water is precious-save it.It might be the very drop that will quench your
thirst one day.
Suggestions
 Reduce your needs.

 Reuse or recycle as much water as you can.
 Harvest & conserve water.
 Take initiatives in conserving &preserving this life-giving resources for
posterity.
