Grey water

“Unlike a lot of ecological stopgap measures, grey water reuse is a part of the fundamental solution to many ecological problems. The benefits of grey water recycling include:

• Lower fresh water use
• Less strain on failing septic tank or treatment plant
• Grey water treatment in topsoil is highly effective
• Ability to build in areas unsuitable for conventional treatment
• Less energy and chemical use
• Groundwater recharge
• Plant growth
• Reclamation of otherwise wasted nutrients”
