Water demand
Agriculture water demand will be the highest category of demandIndustrial water demand will be the fastest growing demand
![Page 4: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Groundwater
India has the single largest exploitation of groundwater in the world with over 20 million bore-wells65 % of the net irrigated land gets water from bore-wells85 % of rural habitations depend on groundwater

PARADOX ?
![Page 6: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Water in the city : Bangalore
Lakes and tanks : 261 in 1960
81 in 1997 55 in 2000
Lake development authority created to preserve and enhance surface water bodies in city

Bangalore need
Bangalore
Bangalore gets its water from the Cauvery 95 kms and 500 meters below the city
![Page 8: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Water supply and sources in Bangalore
• Piped water supply :Current Demand : 1,500 Million Litres per Day Investment Rs.60,000 million ($ 1500 million)Supply : Around 900 MLDShortage covered by : Ground Water !!!
• Rainwater :3,000 Million Litres per Day (Area of 1200sqkm)Rs. “0.00”(zero) ?
Can a better balance be reached ??
![Page 9: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Gated Layouts/Apartments/Homes
: Integrated Water Management
IMPORTANT REALITIESMulti-Sourcing of Water : tanker, piped, borewell, openwellDependence on ground water : borewells are drying up and getting deeperClean your own dirty water : What goes around comes around
IMPORTANT PRINCIPLESConservation : Dont use water wastefully Demand Management : Cycle and Recycle & harvestSecuring sources of water : measure, limit extraction and rechargeLeave the water out at the quality I extracted it
![Page 10: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

6) Storage
7) Recharge
<<< The saree is the
Catchment, conveyance
And filter !!!!!!
The collection and storage of rain for future productive use

Good Quality Catchment = Good Quality water (HH Rooftops water usually can be used
for Drinking and cooking with boiling / UV
treatment )
Rainwater is distilled water. Picks up

• Size - 44 households
• Water demand - 33 KL/day
• Water sources - BWSSB supply, tankers and borewell.
• Motivation for RWH - Increase the size of their BWSSB connection.
• Potential for RWH
• Roof area - 700 sqm
• Rainfall endowment - 6.7 lakh litres / annum (20 days of total demand)
• RWH strategy - rooftop RWH with groundwater recharge and storage in new RWH sump.
• Cost - Rs. 1.55 lakhs

A typical roof in Bangalore
• Sterile,• Uninteresting
and• Heat sinks
![Page 39: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Roofs and Terraces are 60 % of Bangalore

Can they be smarter ?– Since they receive----------– maximum sunlight and heat– all the rain– lots of wind and– a whole bunch of birds, butterflies and bees
– Can they solve Bangalore’s water, wastewater, energy, sewage, food and bio-diversity problem ?

How about? A roof that grows rice
![Page 42: Biome rwh](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060205/55a1c2901a28ab390e8b4782/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

So what can a smart roof do?
• Provide– Food security… and grow rice, banana,
vegetables – Water security .. and treat waste water
– Energy security… and keep the house cool– Ecological security… and help save the
sparrow
