1. Whatis on-sitegreywaterreuse? Definitions Greywater = partofthehouseholdwastwaterwithoutfaecal matter andurine (blackwater). Greywateristhedrainfrombathtubs, showertrays, washbasinsandwashingmachines. Itmay also containhigh-pollutedkitchenwastewater. (British standard 8525-1:2010) Processwater = waterwith different qualitycharacteristicsthandrinkingwater servingcommercial, industrial, agriculaturalorsimiliarpurposes (DIN 4046).

3. Treatment technique General flowchart
3. Treatment technique combination of aerobic biological sludge treatment and external submerged membrane filtration system. Ultrafiltrationflatsheet membranes separating activated sludge from biologically treated wastewater.
3. Treatment technique • stateoftheart in Europe • exceeding all guidelines • 100% barrierforsludge/particles • 99,9% barrierforgerms • absolut clearwater • smallfootprint • eco-friendlywithoutchemicals • packagedsystembysystemmanufacturer • highinvestmentcosts • maintenancecosts
3. Treatment technique combination of aerobic biological sludge treatment and UV-desinfection batches: fill => react/aeration => settle => decant
3. Treatment technique • with UV-desinfection • stateoftheart in Europe • exceeding all guidelines • 99,9% barrierforgerms • eco-friendlywithoutchemicals • lowmaintenancecosts • lowenergyconsumption • not guaranteedclearwater (e.g. foam) • UV-efficiencydepends on biologicalefficiency • large footprint
3. Treatment technique • constructedwetlandswith additional desinfection • combinedtreatmentsystems(sandfilter, carbon-filter, chlorinestation) • multi-layer-filters • not commonandproven in long-term-operation • insufficientbiologicaltreatment => odour, foam,… • mixedtechnology– nopackagedandtestedunits
