Water supply is a major problem in our country, especially in rural areas, where people are deprived of even the most basic amenities of life. People in these underprivileged areas are forced to consume polluted water, which poses a threat to the lives of 70 percent of the population. Many of them are infected with waterborne diseases every year.
The Community Hand is a conventional lever-action hand pump. It is designed for heavy-duty use, serving communities of up to 300 individuals. This pump is fully corrosion-resistant, easy to install, and well-suited for community-based maintenance. It is also known as the deep-well piston hand pump.
Community Hand pumps are ideal for villages and households where surface sources are common and only a basic pump is required to meet water needs. Suction hand pumps are economical, easy to install, and easy to maintain. Maintenance is performed at the village level without the need for specialist parts. The pumps are made from cast iron.
It is a traditional source of water in rural areas of Pakistan. The earth is excavated deep to fetch water from below. Digging is done through various techniques, including drilling, blasting, etc. Concrete rings are put in open wells to ensure long life and sustainability. Water motors and hand pulleys are used for pulling the water up from the wells.
Water pumping is generally dependent on conventional electricity. Solar pumping systems are environmentally friendly and require low maintenance with no fuel cost. Keeping in view the shortage of electricity in urban, rural, and remote areas in many parts of Pakistan, solar-powered pumping is one of the most promising applications using solar energy. The technology is similar to a conventional water pumping system, i.e., electrical submersible water pumping, except that the power source is solar energy. The solar submersible water pumping technique has gained importance in recent years due to the non-availability of electricity. The flow rate of pumped water is dependent on the incident solar radiation and the size of the PV array. A properly designed PV system results in significant long-term cost savings compared to conventional pumping systems. In addition, tanks can be used for water storage in place of battery backup.
Solar submersible water pumping is best suited to run water pumping systems in remote areas or where electricity has frequent outages.
Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids, and gases from contaminated water. The goal is to produce water fit for drinking purposes. Water purification plants are the source of providing pure, safe, and healthy drinking water to people. Water filtration plants make use of “Reverse Osmosis” processes for water purification. The Reverse Osmosis (RO) process is used in those areas where the underground water condition is very poor, i.e., the water is saline.
The distribution of water is always troublesome in hilly and remote areas. To remedy the situation, a reservoir of water is created mechanically and stored at a place where it can be easily disseminated to the required population. The scheme also involves the development of new water resources so that demand can be met through seamless provision lines.
We installed submersible pumps in areas with urgent water needs to ensure access to clean water. This initiative has significantly improved the well-being of the local communities. Many individuals now have a reliable water source, enhancing their daily lives.
“Charity does not in any way decrease the wealth and the servant who forgives, Allah adds to his respect; and the one who shows humility, Allah elevates him in the estimation (of the people).” (Muslim Vol. 4, Hadith 6264)
