Abstract
Water Supply in rural area is still a crucial issue in many countries. Storage in groundwater aquifer is a promising alternative for water harvesting. Rainwater tank system on a household scale is proposed for storing excessive water both in the tank and in the aquifer during rainy season and recovering the recharged water from the aquifer for use during dry season. The design concept is described with a calculation sample for reference. From the data of water level and water quality, obtained through monitoring 400 constructed tank systems, the system proposed is proved to be workable and effective in both quantitative and qualitative aspects, especially in the area with high rainfall and moderately or low yielded aquifer.
