Review ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRainwater Harvesting and Treatment Systems in South America: A Bibliometric Analysis (2000-2021)Eli Morales Rojas, Manuel E. Reátegui-Inga, Reiner Reátegui Inga et al.The objective of this study was to review the main rainwater harvesting and treatment systems through a bibliometric analysis from 2000-2021. A bibliometric analysis was used in the R program and VOS viewer, the query involved titles, abstracts, and keywords during the last 20 years (2000-2021). The results indicate that from 2013 onwards, interest in this topic increased. 13% of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 13 Sep 2022 · 7,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluating Rainwater Harvesting System for School BuildingsManoj K. Jha, Nishant ShahFreshwater 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 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 22 Sep 2015 · 8,909 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSoft Path Water Management in Dry and arid Regions of the Arabian Peninsula by Rainwater HarvestingM. T. Amin, A. A. Alazba, U. ManzoorSaudi Arabia has limited renewable water resources and the groundwater is the main source of water in Saudi Arabia which. With an arid climate, it receives about 50-100 mm/year of rainfall in Central, Eastern and Northern regions. There are few studies investigating the future regional climate change and some has predicted a decrease in precipitation but with extreme climate events … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Apr 2013 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSustainability of Rainwater Harvesting Systems in Multistorey Residential BuildingsA. Rahman, J. Dbais, M. ImteazProblem statement: The urban water supply systems in Australian large cities, which generally depend on large surface water reservoirs, are highly stressed due to rapid urban growth and severe drought conditions during the current decade. To ensure the long term sustainability of urban water supply, various alternative water sources including rainwater tanks, grey water, wastewater and desalination plants are being … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 14,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePrediction of Physicochemical Parameters in a Rainwater Harvesting and Treatment System Modeled Using the Yahtun Algorithm in Native Communities of Northern PeruEli Morales-Rojas, Edwin Adolfo Díaz Ortiz, José Emmanuel Cruz de La Cruz et al.The inhabitants of the native communities of northern Peru do not have drinking water systems, generating serious health impacts. In this sense, rainwater harvesting systems have become an alternative for these areas. Therefore, the objective of this study was to predict the physicochemical parameters in a rainwater collection and treatment system, modeled by means of a novel “Yahtun” algorithm. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 13 Feb 2025 · 5,149 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpacts of Large-Scale Stormwater Green Infrastructure Implementation and Climate Variability on Receiving Water Response in the Salt Lake City AreaChris York, Erfan Goharian, Steven J. BurianThis study evaluated impacts of Green Infrastructure (GI) as a stormwater management practice on return flows and the further Implications of climate variability. The goal was to create a model to explore the impacts that bioretention and Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) representing GI had using goldsim and Stormwater Management Modeling (SWMM) software. The software was used to represent impacts that climate … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 20 Oct 2015 · 9,269 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Impact of Topography on Flooding in Owerri North, Imo State, Nigeria Using GIS and Remote Sensing TechniquesSylvanus Ibeabuchi IroThe aim of this study is to analyze the topographical contribution to floods in Owerri, North Imo State, Nigeria. Research was carried out to ascertain whether topographical elements played a role in the flooding in specific areas of Owerri North. As a result, very little research has looked at the effects of topography on flooding. Thus, there is a barrier … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2025 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Effects of Biomass Carbon Modified Bioretention Pond Fill Layer in Sponge City GardensWen Cao, Beibei ZuWith the expansion of urban green areas, the resulting increase in green waste has become the second-largest solid waste in the city. Green waste contains a lot of minerals and the recycling of its resources has become the urgent task of urban green development.
