Apstrakt

Jedan od najvažnijih principa zastupljenih na dnevnom redu po pitanju održivog razvoja jeste raspodela vode i snabdevanje budućih generacija. Cilj rada je procena održivosti količine i kvaliteta izvora vode za Erbil, kao i njihova sigurnost i bezbednost na osnovu standardnih ograničenja. Prvi korak je bio izračunavanje količine i potražnje vode na osnovu prilagođene skale, a zatim su proučavani podaci dobijeni od direkcija za vode koji se odnose na površinske i podzemne vode za ispitivano područje. Ispitivanje je bilo usmereno na upravljanje vodosnabdevanjem i glavne faktore koji su uticali na nedostatak održivosti. Sledeći korak je bio razmatranje odgovarajućeg rešenja za te probleme, kao što je izbegavanje bušenja ilegalnih bunara podzemnih voda i bolje upravljanje vodoprivrednim sektorom. Upotreba dodatnih površinskih voda dobijenih nakon izgradnje dodatnih postrojenja za prečišćavanje vode se može smatrati alternativom za potrošnju podzemnih voda. Ponovno korišćenje prerađene kanalizacijske vode za potrošnju i dopunjavanje podzemnih voda se takođe može smatrati održivom strategijom za snabdevanje vodom u Erbilu.
