Rainwater Harvesting

International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2023
Abstract: One of the severe issues that is well recognized on the planet is the water scarcity. Overexploitation of groundwater and surface water resources is the outcome of population growth, urbanization, and industrial expansion. Due to uneven rainfall, the traditional water sources, such as wells, rivers, and reservoirs, are unable to supply all of
