What is Water storage?
Water Storage is a broad term referring to the storage of both potable (safe to drink, drinkable) and non potable (not fit for consumption) water.
Many African countries face water shortages due to drought or a lack of clean, available water. Water Reservoirs can be used to keep communities in Djibouti hydrated by rain or grey water storage.
Private homes, small/large businesses, factories and warehouses in particular can enjoy the many benefits of saving water such as cost reduction and in an emergency situation, fire suppression.
With climate change, unpredictable weather patterns and escalating utility costs mean finding water storage solutions are essential.
Since 2007, Djibouti has been suffering from serious, continuous drought. According to a study performed in 2011 by the Department of Environmental Sciences and Management of the University of Liege in Belgium, “total precipitation has decreased by 17.4% per decade from 1980 to 2011 and recent mean yearly rainfall meets a 73% deficit compared to the 30-year average”.
The worst affected by this drought have been the approximately 130,000-170,000 pastoralists and/or nomads who live in the rural parts of the country. These nomads live very traditional lives, sheltering themselves in portable huts made of branches and woven mats and living through the herding of sheep, goats, and cattle. However, due to the consistent presence of drought, pastoralists have lost 70-80% of their livestock from a lack of food and water.
African Tank Systems provide portable water storage solutions which are ideal for areas in Djibouti with known water shortages. Emergency water storage, such as rain water collection (Rainwater tanks / Rain Water Harvesting), can be used for:
In Rural areas or small farming communities, rain water helps break down compost and to keep livestock and harvests hydrated. Rain water is suitable to rinse fruits and vegetables for consumption straight from a garden or plantation.
