WATER HARVESTING<\/b><\/p>\n

Trabalhadora system:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b>a pile of stones (shaped as women bending down) is set next to a shallow well and covered with a malt made of clay and straw (waterproof) but leaving air inlets. From it, a small channel leads the water deriving from condensation to the well. It can then be extracted with buckets or small pumps run with solar panels.<\/p>\n

\"wp4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Cuanza system:<\/b><\/p>\n

Rain water flows directly from the roof to a shallow well. The well (maximum 3 mt deep) is provided with a purification system similar to the Imhof ditch: water runs through a filter made of a tight mesh net. When the filter is dirty the sediment is moved to a compost dip.<\/p>\n

In the dry months stones can be placed on the net to capt the condensation that becomes water.<\/p>\n
