Presentation overview • Greywater production • Nutrients in waste fractions • Greywater composition • Greywater treatment and reuse
Nutrients and volume of domestic wastewater fractions (Vinnerås 2002).
Greywater volumes per capita and day (average from 18 investigations; 4 in poor and 14 in rich countries)
Greywater volumes per capita and day 60 - 110 liter 25 - 90 liters
Greywater composition (Jenssen et al. 2005a)
Greywater composition (Jenssen and Vråle 2004)
Greywater composition BOD/COD/SS concentrations as for combined wastewater Nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) substantially lower concentrations than for combined wastewater Pathogens (bacteria, viruses) substantially lower concentrations than for combined wastewater
Total nitrogen concentrations in greywater STE (mg/l) Average 8,4 mg/l (Jenssen and Vråle 2004)
Total nitrogen concentrations in greywater Norway (mg/l) Drinking water (WHO) 10,0 mg/l Average 8,4 mg/l (Jenssen and Vråle 2004)
Total phosphorus concentrations in greywater Norway (mg/l) Average 1,03 mg/l (Jenssen and Vråle 2004)
Greywater constituents relative concern • nitrogen • phosphorus • of the organic matter • bacteria + virus?
