The diagram illustrates how an Australian town collects rainwater to process in
order to use as drinking water. Overal rainwater collected from houses can be
used for drinking after it has been processed by being filtered and then being
treated with chemicals.
Initially, the rain which falls orn the rooftop is collected by the gutter and then runs
down the pipe at the side of the house into the drain at the bottom. Each house
collects rainwater in this way and the rainwater is then passed along underground
drains to the water filter
The ranywater passes through the wate filter to remove any impurities. Once it has
been fltered, it continues along the pipes to a storage tank. From this point, the
water goes from storage to the wate treatment At his stage o1 the process, the
ater 1s treated with dhemicals in order to make it nt for consumption. When the
water is ready for drinking, it travels along pipes that lead back into the houses in
the town where people can use the water for daily consumption.
