In Malaysia alone, the estimated annual rain precipitation is 990 billion m³, out of this amount only 4% is being utilized, the other 96% flow to the underground, rivers and seas. In 2012, Malaysian Uniform Building By-Laws 1984 requires all newly-built detached buildings as well as bungalows and semi-detached bungalows with a roof area of 100sqm and above to be equipped with rainwater harvesting systems to capture rainwater for reuse. Based on the mentioned facts, a seminar on rainwater will be hosted by Malaysia Ministry of Environment and Water (KASA), University College TATI (UC TATI), Yayasan Amal Malaysia (YAM), international agencies and universities. The first Virtual International Seminar on Rainwater Harvesting, Engineering and Technology 2020 (1st VISRAWET 2020) will be held on 17ᵗʰ - 18ᵗʰ December 2020.
This seminar aims to look for methods to assist governments and public communities to utilize these sustainable resources in a very efficient way through harvesting and use the restored rain in different purposes.
Focus of this seminar will be paid to:
1.Virtual Exhibitions on Rainwater equipment and instruments.
2.Focusing on applications, especially in the rural areas.
Other related topics; Rainfall Distribution in the Different States of Malaysia, Rainwater Harvesting on Domestic and Large Scales, Rainwater treatments, Rainwater industry on Rainwater tank, Piping and Chemical treatments, Cost Estimation and other related topics.
