Water issues in Kuwait
Kuwait, an arid country, has an acute lack of natural groundwater resources, an increasing demand for water supply, but no clear plan for water management. On this basis, a future water crisis will be inevitable. This paper offers proposals that could lead to the sustainable management of water resources in Kuwait. The objective should be less the increase of supply than the improvement of its reliability and quality. The establishment of a unifi…
Quality of stormwater runoff in the State of Kuwait, Al‐Asema governorate
The purpose of this preliminary study was to evaluate the quality of stormwater runoff, and determine the impact of land use on the level of runoff contamination. To accomplish this, 36 samples were collected from 6 sampling locations in the ‘Al‐Asema’ governorate – the capital of the state of Kuwait – over six rain events. Samples were analysed for total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, volatile suspended solids, chemical oxygen demand,…
