Abstract: An outdoor water management system including at least one reservoir configured to receive highly concentrated contaminated water, a weather proof cover, covering the reservoir to define at least one chamber and water vapour removal means, configured to remove evaporated water from the at least one chamber wherein the at least one chamber is configured to further concentrate the contaminated water while providing long-term weatherproof storage thereof.

Abstract: A water treatment system is provided that provides desalination of water for aquifer recharge, agricultural, mining or industrial use. The water treatment system comprises: an input, for receiving contaminated water to be treated; an output, for providing treated water, wherein a level contamination of a contaminant i s lower in the treated water than in the contaminated water; and a hydrophilic membrane between the input and the output. The hydrophilic membrane configured to allow water to pass from the input to the output, and to at least partly impede the passage of the contaminant from the input to the output. In use, a low pressure is applied to the output to cause the water to flow across the membrane.
