Spray Diagram for Raw Data
Design of our system
Mosquito Prevention Methods
Placement of Mosquito Netting
Efficiency
location of system: maximises the collection of water
Reduce costs and implement sustainability
We reused an old barrel to make a funnel
200 Liter Tank is suitable for the purposes we are using the tank for
Project statement
To reduce piped water usage and supplement existing water supplies
Insights
More rainwater is collected than previously expected.
This shows that rainwater harvesting can be collected in large quantities for many non-potable purposes (eg. gardening)
Little modifications were made to the RVRC compounds, where we collect water from the edge of the roof (gutter located at the corner)
Collaboration with the RVRC Gardening Club to make use of the rainwater collected. Collected rainwater is dispensed through the outlet into a watering tank to be used
Questions
Does our raw data fit into our statement?
Does modifications need to be made to RVRC compound?
Problems and limitations
Balancing of our funnel on the tank
Collapse of debris net
Water meter clog
As a result water will not pass through water meter and into the tank
Funnel will overflow with water
Safety considerations
Does it obstruct walkway or fire evacuation route
Potential dangers in our system
People might drink from our tank
We placed a cautionary sign to prevent people from touching the tank
Red White tape to further deter people from touching the tank
Toppling of our system
the wooden pallet is not waterproof it might break due to corrosion.
Reinforced it by putting bricks in between the wooden pallet.
People might knock into the system
Red White tape to deter people from going close to the system
The height of our tank cannot be too high
Used 200 litres tank instead of 600 litres
Water might splash on the walk way, People might fall down due to the slippery conditions.
Our system is placed far from the walkway.
Mosquitoes breeding
In the tank
Stagnant water surrounding the system
The spot under the tap of our system
Will it cause any disruptions to nearby residences?
