Dude, I want you to come come to my house and help me set up my house like that. That is AWESOME. I will have to keep this in mind within the next yr I hope to have this working for me. How much did it cost you do do this?
You must own the property!, My hose is bank owned. So I won't modify the existing plumbing. Also building codes are strict where I live. Good idea for a rural drought prone property.
I agree with the concept and have heard of using fish to eat the mosquito larvae. The sound is hard to hear tho and makes it difficult to comprehend. Greywater is perfect for irrigation and water from the washing machine has nutrients already in it.
Kitchen waste water has a very high organic load and that decomposes quickly and starts smelling.
One way to address the issue is to separate the high organic load from the rinsing water. Dish rinse water can easily be used but the Indian cooking has dishes with lots of oil, grease and curry,vegetables, rice,dal, curds. This stuff needs to be taken care of separately. I have a movie on that separately
another question that comes to mind is what happen if kitchen wastewater is also added to it inspite of its organic contents like tea leaves etc. These organic waste even if allowed to upto constructed wetland on roof can be picked up by birds? Or there could be some other problem like odour etc
Very interesting video and good work.How you came to the conclusion that five drums are needed to get rid of detergents completely for this cascading flow of grey water.Secondly, constructed wetland bed thickness had limitation of avoiding extra load on roof which appear tobe about 8 inches'.Anyway,thank you very much for sharing this video with us.
Very good, Vishu! If you don't have terrace to grow paddy may be we can use the water for gardening Righ? I need the reeds to purify the water, I will contact you. Thanks, kalpa
