Abstract

1.3 billion of the worlds population does not have access to freshwater which is expected to double in 25 years time. The water demand has increased 60% in the last 25 years. The problem of water scarcity has given rise to the evaluation and development of alternative approaches to the existing water supply practices. Decentralized systems have been drawing significant attention in the last decades especially for small communities in remote areas facing fresh water shortages [1, 2].
