Rainwater management information


Rainwater management is a series of countermeasures to reduce runoff volume and improve water quality by replicating the natural hydrology and water balance of a site, with consideration of rainwater harvesting, urban flood management and rainwater runoff pollution control.

The continuous growth of human populations and the consequent growing need for drinking water is a global problem.[1] Rainwater is an important source of drinking water, and as a free source of water, considerable quantities can be collected from roof catchments and other surface areas for various uses.[2] Due to water shortages, rainfall events and flooding, attention has been given to rainwater management. Rainwater management re-conceptualizes urban rainwater, transforming it from a community risk to a resource for urban development,[3] a good rainwater management is important for the design of sanitation systems and the environment, nowadays different methods of rainwater management have been developed,[4] including reduction of impervious surfaces, separation of rainwater and sanitary sewers, collection and reuse of rainwater, and Low-impact development (LID).
