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 Mauritania 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.
The Main uses of water storage tanks include:
Nouakchott, the capital of Mauritania, is a town built around a well of the same name, where camel herders used to go and water their flock. Today, it suffers from a serious water problem. “We have nothing,” says one local woman. “We buy water from street carts. We don’t have pipes, taps, anything… Nothing at all.”
Twenty years of drought have caused a profound demographic transformation in this country, which is 90% desert. The nomadic population has rapidly declined, with people settling in rural areas and in shantytowns in cities where access to clean water and sanitation is scarce.
Water supplies are running out in Nouakchott, the desert capital of Mauritania, where it rains on average six days each year. The ancient underground lake that supplies the city is steadily shrinking. More than 600,000 people now live in Nouakchott and it is now 40 times larger and the underground reservoir it sits upon is rapidly drying up.
African Tank Systems provide portable water storage solutions which are ideal for areas in Mauritius 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.
