Pilot Rural Water Supply Projects in Khorezm Region

In 1996–1997, the “Obi Hayot” Association, together with the international consultant SRP, implemented Pilot Projects for small-scale rural drinking water supply facilities in the Khorezm region, funded by a KfW Bank (Germany) Grant of 1.5 million German marks. More than 4,000 people in the kolkhozes “Ok Oltin” of Urgench district and “Karakum” of Khiva district gained access to clean drinking water. The investment approach applied advanced practices used in European countries. Comprehensive socio-economic, topographic, and engineering-geological studies were carried out. The projects adopted new technical solutions using energy-efficient technologies in containerized water treatment and distribution units by SIEMENS and WABAG. For water disinfection, sodium hypochlorite produced on-site from table salt in an electrodialysis container unit is used, along with a modern ultraviolet bactericidal system.
