2.  Nabouwalu is located on the southwest tip of Vanualevu in the province of Bua
 It is one of the two major seaport of entry on the island of Vanualevu
 Nabouwalu has:
1. Hospital
2. Police Station
3. Post Office
4. Various Government Utilities
 Approximate population is 5,118 persons
 Treatment Method – Direct Chlorination without sedimentation and filtration
 Water supply is disrupted during rainy weather
 Water borne disease (Typhoid) was detected in Nabouwalu in 2010
 Nabouwalu will be rezoned as a town
Background

3. Package Water Treatment Plant
aim
Provide safe, clean and accessible
drinking water in urban and rural area
in the country and being an influence to
the whole pacific .
purpose

Expected Results of the Project

8. LITERATURE REVIEW
Membrane bio reactor wastewater
treatment plant
 Based on waste water treatment plant in
Saudi Arabia
 Took more process and time to remove
bacteria and virus. Min-9months.
 Requires a lot of space for vast of
clarifier and for more process.
 Cater large amount of people in supply.
 Requires maintenances in massive
process.
 Requires good budget for construction
and maintenances.
water leakage prevention from
water pipes
 Based on water leakage prevention
campaign in fukuoka city.
 Effect from degradation, corrosion and
breakages due to load applied.
 Prevention measured:
- replacing old pipes.
- upgrading and improving
distribution pipes ..
- controlling water pressure - and
distribution management system.
water, sanitation and hygiene in
pacific islands
 Based on water, sanitation and hygiene
(WASH) systems in the Pacific Island
schools.
 Promote health and education of girls and
children with disability.
 Very poor WASH systems in the pacific
island countries and territories (PICT).
 Main aim was to document the
characteristics and effectiveness of
approaches to improve WASH systems in
PICT’s.

9. PACKAGE SURFACE WATER TREATMENT PLANT EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON WATER SUPPLY
SYSTERM

10. Status of Water Resources in Fiji
 Urban areas depend on surface water whereas small, low lying islands and rural areas deeply
depend on groundwater and seldom rainwater.
 Contamination, lack of sanitation and awareness, loss of potable water in reticulation systems
all lead to unsafe water resource.
 Proper upgrade of equipment together with relevant training is highly required.
 Problems with water resources and associated environmental issues
 Rainwater
 No proper catchment
 Climate change – drought.
 Groundwater
 Differ for different physical environments.
 Availability
