Proper access to water remains a complicated issue around the world despite the fact that Earth surface is covered with 70% water (Khatri et al., 2014). This is because many countries around the world are facing water stress, hence, water scarcity is considered as one of the greatest global concerns of the twenty-first century (Abu-Zeid and Shiklomanov, 2003). It was estimated that global water demand is expected to outstrip availability by 40% by 2030 (World Economic Forum, 2011), and the possible effects of climate change, deforestation, population expansion, pollution and inadequate funding are exacerbating the problem (Adom and Simatele, 2021; Rosegrant et al., 2009; Rieu-Clarke, 2017).

Hence, poses a threat to sustainable water resources.
