Abstract
ABSTRACTAs the scarcity of water is rapidly increasing everyday particularly during the summer season, the demand for water also substantially increases. Previously around thirty to forty years back, the major part of the earth is unpaved and the amount of infrastructure built on the earth were also very low, hence during the monsoon season rainwater easily percolates into the earth through the soil and the ground water level increases. But now the scenario is completely different, most of the areas have been paved and the chance of percolation of water is completely reduced. Hence replenish the ground water table and also re-utilize the rainwater for domestic and agricultural purposes, the rainwater harvesting method is adopted. The rainwater harvesting is simple collection or storing of water through scientific techniques where the main falls. The rainwater harvesting not only helps in meeting the daily water usage but also helps in increasing the groundwater levels quality and quantity. In the present study, attempt has been made to examine the present status of water requirement and proposed rooftop rainwater harvesting potential in the college campus. Building and college campus of Siddhartha institute of technology & sciences. Telangana state of India has been undertaken for the present investigation. The annual rainfall in the study area is 800 mm. The proposed study is entirely based on primary and secondary data. Primary data is collected from field work and secondary data is collected from Chief Planning Office, Collectorate, Hyderabad Rooftop rainwater harvesting method is used in the present study.Keywords: Catchment, Ground water, Rainwater harvesting. Roof top water, Rain fall.
