UOB Desalination Station
Basrah province faces a serious problem, which is an increase in water salinity during summer, due to incorrect policies used by neighboring countries to reduce water allocations of Iraq because they have the tributaries of Iraqi rivers, which led to a decrease in water levels in Shatt al-Arab and a rise in the salt wedge from the Arabian Gulf towards Shatt al-Arab, making its water undrinkable. Salinity changes from year to year due to the amount of rain falling on Iraq during the rainy season. Thus, The University of Basra has adopted a water project and installed a desalination station to produce sterile RO water, which is completely consumed for drinking.
Storing Water in Isolated Reservoirs
The university owns Isolated rainwater reservoirs, which isolated the water that is used to water agricultural crops and animals and human drinkable water.
