Roof Top Rain Water Harvesting What is Roof Top Rain Water Harvesting? Rooftop Rain Water Harvesting is the technique through which rain water is captured from the roof catchments and stored in reservoirs. Harvested rain water can be stored in sub-surface ground water reservoir by adopting artificial recharge techniques to meet the household needs through storage in tanks. The Main Objective of rooftop rain water harvesting is to make water available for future use. Capturing and storing rain water for use is particularly important in dryland, hilly, urban and coastal areas. In alluvial areas energy saving for 1m. rise in ground water level is around 0.40 kilo watt per hour. Need for Rooftop Rain Water Harvesting 1. To meet the ever increasing demand for water 2. To reduce the runoff which chokes storm drains 3. To avoid flooding of roads 4. To augment the ground water storage and control decline of water levels 5. To reduce ground water pollution 6. To improve the quality of ground water 7. To reduce the soil erosion 8. To supplement domestic water requirement during summer, drought etc. Advantages of Rain Water Harvesting 1. Provides self-sufficiency to your water supply 2. Reduces the cost for pumping of ground water 3. Provides high quality water, soft and low in minerals 4. Improves the quality of ground water through dilution when recharged to ground water 5. Reduces soil erosion in urban areas 6. The rooftop rain water harvesting is less expensive 7. Rainwater harvesting systems are simple which can be adopted by individuals 8. Rooftop rain water harvesting systems are easy to construct, operate and maintain 9. In hilly terrains, rain water harvesting is preferred 10. In saline or coastal areas, rain water provides good quality water and when recharged to ground water, it reduces salinity and also helps in maintaining balance between the fresh-saline water interface 11. In Islands, due to limited extent of fresh water aquifers, rain water harvesting is the most preferred source of water for domestic use 12. In desert, where rain fall is low, rain water harvesting has been providing relief to people

‘V’ Wire Injection Well Technology to Recharge Groundwater Source: • The Rain Water is lead through water channel and first reaches the silt trap, which allows for silt to accumulate in the chamber. The overflow water is lead into the injection well, passing through multilayer’s of Filtration media placed at the top of the injection well. The water is accommodated in a specially designed storage well, which creates water column, injecting large quantities of water into the deeper layers of the semi impervious earth’s strata through the Non Clogging V-Wire screens attached to the specifically designed percolator pipe, placed to a depth of 30 meters below the ground. The water column and the dual V-Wire Screen allow for the water to reach the dry joints, cracks, aquifers and recharge the ground water source. • This technology does not employ moving parts; the assured life span of the material is a minimum of twenty years. The maintenance cost involves desalting of the silt trap and replacement of filtration media once in five years. • The technology was adaptable to harvest rain water, irrespective of the presence of any bore well in place and also irrespective of terrain. The technology gave maximum flexibility to be used either in low lying areas or in upland conditions. • All materials used in this Technology are eco-friendly and recyclable. • Technology works on the Gravitational Principal Geomorphic profiling through vertical electrical Sounding of the soil strata is done to ascertain enormous quantity of water, quickly penetrating the rainwater into groundwater source. • The Provisioning of silt Trap fitted with Horizontal V wire Screen Filter eliminated the need of periodic maintenance and also facilitating significant volumes of rainwater to get into the recharging well.

AWM MAG-110 - Smart Series EM Flowmeter Allegiance Electromagnetic Flow Meter, simply known as mag flow meter is a volumetric flow meter that is ideally used for water, mild acid or alkali, salt solution, pulp, wastewater (ETP, STP, WTP & WWTP) and other conductive media that experience low pressure drop. However, the medium must not contain enormous ferromagnetic materials and bubbles. It is widely used in the flow measurement of metallurgy, papermaking, environmental protection, petroleum, light textile, chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry, water conservation, municipal construction, food industry and other fields. A mag meter operates on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction which states that a voltage is induced when a conductor moves through a magnetic field. The liquid flowing through the pipe acts as the conductor and this induces a voltage which is proportional to the average flow velocity. This voltage is detected by sensing electrodes mounted in the Magflow meter body and sent to a transmitter which calculates the volumetric flow rate based on the pipe dimensions. Allegiance Digital Flow Meter With Telemetry is manufactured as per CGWA Compliance and provides effortlessly smooth performance. Unlike traditional flowmeters, the main meter sensor is designed to have no moving parts that eliminates frequent maintenance.

The Net Ground Water Availability is 396 bcm and the overall stage of ground water development of the country is 61%. Therefore, prior permission/NOC from CGWA has to be obtained before construction of any Groundwater abstraction structure viz. Tube wells, Bore wells, Dug wells etc. Allegiance can offers its client the following services: Examining the area of the groundwater against availability Water requirement Availability of aquifer A Shallow aquifer B Deeper aquifer Status of the groundwater development of the area Preparation of proposal for augmentation of groundwater abstraction Preparation and implementation of water conservation measures Facilitation for obtaining NOC from CGWA, New Delhi

The concept of watershed development is based on the idea that rainwater can be harvested, the direct run-off of water reduced and the groundwater recharged. Watershed management has been a comprehensive approach aimed at optimizing the use of water, land and vegetation in any area. It is highly effective in channelizing water availability that helps to alleviate drought, moderate floods, prevent soil erosion, increase fuel, fodder and agricultural production on a sustained basis while keeping the inherent productivity of the soil resource intact.
