The chart depicts the process of collecting and treating rainwater for use as drinking water in an Australian town.
At the initial stage, rainwater is collected from the rooftops of houses and runs into a drainage system. Then the collected water passes through a water filter to remove debris or large impurities. Once filtered, the water flows into a storage tank.
When the demand for drinking water arises, the stored rainwater is transported from the storage tank to a water treatment facility. The system uses chemicals to purify water. After the treatment process, the useable water is distributed to households for drinking purposes.
After the variety of stages, the rainwater can be used as drinking water. This process highlights an efficient method of utilizing rainwater by collecting, filtering, storing, treating, and finally providing it as safe drinking water to humans.
