Sub-area: Pollution Control- Waste Elimination

  

Problem:

The common household uses large quantities of water each day, most of which is wasted. Also, large quantities of rainwater go through gutters each day, all of which is wasted. There is no current comprehensive plan of eliminating wasteful water and recycling that which can be reused.

 

Solution:

The Gr-ain Water System serves to recycle greywater and forms of water in the common household. It takes water from the house and rainwater from the gutters and puts it through a system of filters. The water that is recycled will not be used for consumption or direct body contact.
