Abstract Hammams or public baths continue to consume substantial quantities of drinking water up 120 m3/day and discharge equivalent greywater. These hammams thus become an important source this greywater, which can be easily treated using constructed wetlands (CWs). In context, the present study proposes practitioners a general method for sizing subsurface flow (SSF) CWs treatment greywater di...

Reclamation and reuse of wastewater are increasingly viewed as a pragmatic tool for water conservation. Greywater, which includes from baths, washing machines, dishwashers, kitchen sinks, is dilute stream, making it an attractive stream extraction non-potable water. However, most previous studies primarily focused on passively aerated biological physicochemical treatment processes greywater tre...

Objectives: To evaluate the importance of solar-based Electrocoagulation followed by filtration process in treating domestic greywater, analyze each operational process’s performance highlighting cost, efficiency and reuse conditions. Analysis: This research aimed to see if continuous mode EC technique could treat Greywater (GW) with batterypowered solar energy. The running on energy is used as...

Greywater has been identified as a valuable alternative water source over recent years. Few practices (i.e., recycling and reuse) of greywater have attracted global attention in meeting the future demand. However, essential parameters should be analyzed for reliable reuse treatment. The present study addresses possibilities with treated greywater. Gravity—governed flow methods through column co...

Abstract The increasing organic loads, specifically biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) and chemical (COD), in water bodies has necessitated greywater treatment before disposal. Limited studies have explored sorption kinetics of BOD5 COD removal using activated carbon from palm kernel shell fixed-bed columns. This study investigated continuous removing domestic greywater. had a density 0.46 g cm−3...

Conventional and alternative sanitation concepts are compared in terms of their ecological performance via the methodology of LCA. Alternative scenarios include urine separation, faeces composting and digestion, and greywater treatment in a soil filter or technical plant. Urine and faeces are used as secondary fertilizers in agriculture after adequate treatment. Data for Life Cycle Inventory is...
