Design and Construction of Rainwater Harvesting System for ACET

ABSTRACT - Rainwater harvesting (RWH) is a cost-effective strategy that involves collecting and storing precipitation for various uses, including groundwater recharge. This practice necessitates a carefully designed system with key components such as roof catchments, gutters, storage tanks, and filtration units. RWH systems can help alleviate water scarcity, enhance groundwater quality through dilution, and provide an economical solution, particularly in areas with limited access to conventional water sources. The efficacy of rainwater harvesting hinges on the system design, project scale, and local conditions. This research paper aims to explore the potential for designing and constructing a rainwater harvesting system for Anjuman College of Engineering & Technology. The study will evaluate the feasibility of implementing such a system, considering factors like rainfall patterns, roof area, storage capacity, and potential end-uses.
