Air Pocket

-   When we create “water receptacles”, there is a natural cavity and air between sand while there is no water. Therefore, our receptacle continuously breathes and cause soil to breathe air during filling and discharging process.

-  Most of sudden and quick rains and almost all of winter rains charge no advantageous water into soil.

-   These waters, which are above field capacity, either flow into underground waters through soil or stream.

-  Our “water receptacle” captures and retains excess waters.

-  “Water Receptacles” are made of water resistant materials which may partially be deformed by force and pressure and which may yield due to cracking, breaking and tearing.

-   If water enters into “water receptacle” then air must exit. “Water Receptacle” covered with sludge load injects air into soil when it starts to fill with water. This is a hydraulic occurrence. If our “Water Receptacles” are made of water permeable, leaking material, then resultant pressure will inject water through bottom layers. If a rigid material partially non-deformable by pressure is used, our water receptacles will explode due to hydraulic pressure especially in sudden and heavy rains, because of depth.

-   Therefore materials which are water resistant and which are partially deformable due to pressure are used. As the volume of water in our receptacle decreases, it again fills up with air.
