Tell us what the water concern in your country is!In Nigeria, the water pollution from urban runoff and floods threatens water safety, fueling disease like cholera. High turbidity, COD, and coliform renders it unusable, straining communities reliant on purchasing water from vendors at costly rate. This problem of accessing clean water is on the rise amidst the climate challenges.
This is what I think is one of the solutions for a sustainable future:Our solution to the water challenge in Nigeria is a "Nature Based Solution to Climate Change Extremities: flood and drought". This project utilizes locally sourced resources to develop a floating water recycler that purifies both greywater and runoff water using four key stages: photocatalysis, biofiltration, microbial disinfection and solar-powered circulation.
Nature Based Water Solution for Climate Change Extremities (Flood and Drought); A Case Study of OKO Community, Delta State Nigeria
Climate variability and rapid population growth are exacerbating global freshwater scarcity, particularly in regions vulnerable to drought and floods. Many climate- impacted communities lack access to sustainable and resilient water infrastructure, leading to over-reliance on dwindling freshwater supplies. The Nature based water solution for climate change extremities addresses the pressing challenges of water scarcity/flooding in climate stressed regions through an innovative, low-cost solution. The system harnesses renewable solar energy to drive a compact, modular water recycling unit capable of treating greywater, and water runoff for safe reuse. This system integrate four key- stages; solar-driven photocatalysis, biofiltration, solar-powered circulation and microbial disinfection to purify greywater and runoff into WHO compliant drinking water, suitable for both domestic and agricultural use. The system…
