Greywater Recycling and Reuse
The generation of greywater from human bathing and washing is as ubiquitous as the generation of sewage. The integration of physical and environmental sciences combined with socio‐economic factors and socio‐technological behaviours and practices is fundamentally influential when considering anthropogenic engagement in greywater recycling and reuse. The quality of greywater relates directly to the source from which the greywater originated and the uses to which it has been put. When designing systems for treating and recycling greywater, the quality of the untreated greywater should be assumed to be contaminated, in the absence of definitive data. The University of Reading monitored growth trials of sedum grown in floor‐standing boxes irrigated using bathroom greywater for a 6‐month period during 2015‐2016. An analytical approach to the quality and reuse opportunities for greywater leads to the determination of water reuse and irrigation potential, feasibility, and water stewardship.
