Greywater Recycling
Greywater Recycling is a process in eco system design where water from sinks, showers, and washing machines is collected, filtered, and reused for things like irrigation or flushing toilets. In eco system design, designers can use gravity-fed systems to move greywater through natural filters such as sand or plant beds, which clean the water without using extra energy. This method helps keep water use low and supports local plant life by returning nutrients to the soil. Designers can plan landscapes and buildings together so that greywater flows directly into gardens or green roofs, making the whole system work better as a unit and saving fresh water for drinking and cooking.
