Abstract:
<p>Greywater is domestic household wastewater without inputfrom the toilet, i.e. wastewater from sinks, the shower,washing machine and dishwasher in a home. Source separation ofgreywater can be a strategy to enhance recirculation of plantnutrients and/or improve water use. The risk for transmissionof disease when reusing greywater is largely dependent on thecross-contamination by faeces. High levels of faecalindicators, mainly thermotolerant coliform bacteria, have beenreported in greywater, indicating substantial faecal pollution.However, growth of indicator bacteria within the system leadsto

Abstract:
This doctoral thesis examined the sustainability of greywater irrigation in an urban setting with particular focus on environmental impacts on the terrestrial (back yard) and local aquatic environments. The findings will help to strengthen the long-term sustainability of greywater irrigation, foster the known benefits in urban water use savings, improve guidelines for installation of greywater systems and enhance water reuse policy by providing data to minimise the impacts on the environment. Data from this thesis is already being used by the Queensland Government to assist with future guidanc

Abstract:
As global water resources decline, reuse of domestic greywater for the irrigation of home gardens is quickly becoming widespread in many parts of the world. However, the sanitary implications of reusing greywater to water edible crops remain uncertain. This study examined the benefits and risks associated with domestic greywater reuse for the purposes of vegetable garden irrigation. Untreated (settled only) and treated (settling and slow sand filtration) greywater collected from a family home was analyzed

Abstract:
Research on greywater irrigation has mainly focused attention on the reuse of greywater in relation to its quality and crop biomass but not on quality of edible vegetable crops. Thus a field experiment was established at the Umtata Dam Research Station where combinations of cabbages and onions; spinaches and beetroots; and carrots and lettuce were planted in to coincide with four different planting seasons (from October 2009 to December 2010). Crops were irrigated with greywater generated from bathing and dishwashing. Greywater was collected from a number of households in the vicinity of the U

Abstract:
This study focuses on the feasibility and environmental impacts of using raw domestic greywater from laundry and bathroom after only primary treatment, e.g. coarse filtration for irrigating lawns and gardens. The use of greywater for landscape irrigation requires careful management, especially in regions with sandy soils and shallow groundwater levels. There is the possibility that excessive nutrients and other contaminants will leach into surrounding water bodies. This has been a major concern with greywater use in ecologically sensitive environments, such as on the Swan Coastal Plain of Pert

Abstract:
In recent years, there has been increased interest in alternative and innovative technologies which are used in the treatment of wastewaters, with the aim of developing efficient systems which are low-cost and low maintenance. However, greywater reuse from domestic houses appears to have received very little attention and the role of indigenous wetland plants, especially submergents, in contributing to nutrient reduction in wastewater is largely unknown. Species of Triglochin, commonly known as water ribbons, are fast growing submergent macrophytes. In Western Australia, Triglochin huegelii

Abstract:
This thesis offers a decision support framework to establish the economic feasibility associated with considering the installation of a greywater system. Because of the potential dangers and lack of widespread knowledge of greywater systems, the study begins by providing an explanation of current greywater technology to include the history of the technology, an explanation of greywater as opposed to reclaimed water, the potential risks of greywater use, and the necessary components of a greywater system. This decision support framework can be used with any scale of greywater system to be insta

Abstract:
Greywater of both treated (TGW) and untreated (GW) types are significant alternatives to mains water (MW) for sustaining the growth and expansion of green infrastructure. The aims of this thesis were first to evaluate GW and TGW as alternatives to MW for the purpose of irrigation of green walls and green roofs. Second, to determine whether irrigation water that has percolated through a green walls soil matrix can be further recycled and reused. GW was treated by a membrane bioreactor (MBR) and produced a high quality TGW, which met British Standards GW reuse requirements. A number of significa

Les eaux grises (EG) peuvent être considérées comme une ressource alternative à l'eau potable et peuvent donc être réutilisées, par exemple, pour l'arrosage d'espaces verts pour lequel une qualité ''eau destinée à la consommation humaine'' ne semble pas nécessaire. Toutefois la présence de microorganismes pathogènes et de composés organiques peut entraîner des risques sanitaires et environnementaux. Il est donc nécessaire de traiter ces EG avant de les réutiliser et caractériser les risques liés à leur recyclage, jusqu'à présent peu connus. Pour répondre à ces objectifs, la démarche a consisté

Abstract:
Maintaining a supply of potable water is a growing concern in the USA, particularly in many southern and western states. One method of sustaining water supply in these areas is the use of greywater for commercial and residential landscape irrigation. Greywater is derived from residential use such as showers, laundering and bathing, and accounts for approximately 65% of residential waste water. I investigated the effects of municipal tap water, harvested rain water, washing machine and bath water (greywater) on the carbon and nutrient dynamics of soil, foliage and leachate and on soil microbial

Two of the challenges facing Africa in the 21st Century are effective use of restricted water resources and ensuring food security especially for poor communities. In line with these aims, the eThekwini municipality has introduced a multi-tier system of water supply ranging from full pressure reticulated systems along with flush toilets to standpipes and dry toilet systems. In the latter case, it was soon recognized that the disposal of greywater presented a problem. Bearing in mind that South Africa is already a water scarce region, research was initiated into finding means of using this wate
