2.4 Raw Water
Raw water is water used as a source for water
treatment. Raw water can come from a variety of
water resources. Understanding clean water is water
that is free from substances dissolved and have
qualified quality so that can be consumed as drinking
water. But not always clean water can be interpreted
as water that can be directly consumed or drunk,
because the water used to support activities such as
bathing, washing, irrigation, livestock, industry, and
fisheries need clean water whose water quality is not
necessary such as drinking water. Sources of raw
water that can be used for the provision of clean water
that is rain water, surface water, and ground water.
The need for clean water is an unlimited and
sustainable need. While the need for water supply and
service from time to time is increasing, which is
sometimes not matched by service capability. This
increase in demand is due to the increase of
population, the increasing of citizen life status and the
development of city/service area or things related to
the improvement of socio-economic condition of the
people.
2.4.1 Domestic Water Requirement
The clean water needed for daily activities is referred
to as domestic demand in this case including water for
drinking, cooking, cleaning the toilets and so on.
The basic needs of the domestic is the need for
clean water for the residents of the housing
environment are limited to household necessities such
as bathing, drinking, cooking, and others (Ministry of
Public Works, "Maximum Water Requirements
Day").
To estimate the current and future amount of
domestic water demand is calculated based on
population, population growth rate and per capita
water requirement. The per capita water requirement
is influenced by physical activity and habit or welfare
level. Therefore, in estimating the amount of
domestic water needs to distinguish between the
needs of water for urban residents (urban areas) and
rural areas (rural). The differentiation of water
demand is done with the consideration that people in
urban areas tend to use more water than the
population in the rural area. The amount of water
consumption can refer to the various standards that
have been published.
2.4.2 Non Domestic Water Requirement
The non-domestic basic water requirement is a water
requirement for residents outside the housing
environment (Ministry of Public Works, "Maximum
Water Requirements Day"). The need for non
domestic water is often also called urban water needs
(municipal). The need for clean water is determined
by the number of non-domestic consumers that
include office facilities (government and private),
places of worship (mosque, church, etc.), education
(schools), commercial (shop, hotel), public (market,
terminals) and Industry (Ikhsan, 2013).
Non-domestic sector analysis is conducted by
holding on to the latest growth data analysis of
existing socio-economic facilities in the planning
area. Non-domestic water requirements for cities can
be divided into several categories:
1. City Category I (Metro)
2. Category City II (Big City)
3. City Category III (Medium City)
4. City Category IV (Small Town)
5. Cities Category V (Village)
The amount of urban water demand can be
obtained by a percentage of the total household needs,
ranging from 25-40% of household water needs. The
40% rate applies specifically to metropolitan cities
with very high population density such as Jakarta.
Meanwhile, to obtain the amount of water demand
in a region, the equation is used to multiply the
number of users with the standard water requirement
for each type of use (Ikhsan, 2013).
