Abstract:
War and conflict has always been related to water resources. With the danger of water shortages
around the world becoming more and more of an issue, water has become the cause of many
conflicts in different regions around the world. Water disputes are becoming inevitable in the
world's future as the misuse of water resources continues among countries that share the same
water source. The uncontrollable population increase has greatly affected the amount of fresh
water readily available to many people.
Despite the increasing shortage of palatable water from face of the world at an alarming rate,
public acceptance of water conservation methods is not at the level some would like it to be. This
is largely attributable to limited public awareness of an ongoing problem. Many homeowners are
reluctant to alter their water use behavior until a crisis is obvious.
In MCE the majority of water consumed in the average household is in the toilets. 25 to 35
percent is consumed during bathing. The average showerhead delivers 5 to 6 gallons per minute.
Another area of high usage is water for toilets and vanities where an enormous amount of water
is being wasted. And our final year project is about the conservation of water at the microscopic
level. We have tried to encompass ways and means which if adopted not only here at MCE but at
the national level will help save enormous amount of water with simple modifications which we
have evolved and will be shown practically during the final presentation. It will be notable to say
that these measures will not require the fundings at the large scale but can be done by simple
modifications to the existing infrastructure.
