Boulder's 'graywater' system at new green dorm
I have read through this article which really catch my attention on sustainable water management. Basically, this article talks about the green method and application of water management in The University of Colorado. What are they gonna implement is that every dorm will be equipped with plumbing system that is needed to trap wastewater from showers and sinks, treat the water by sanitation before the water is recycle and reuse again to flow through toilet.
Do you know that this system if succeed could save at least 1 million gallons of water every year ? It is a good finding and will benefit so much to the university as well as Colorado in water resource management since this state received a little precipitation, mostly the source of water from the stream or creek from the melting of snow up in the mountain. The reuse and recycle water is called the 'graywater'. I still remember the last time I went to Taiwan for short period program study, the hostel where I was residing to also adapting the same method but the water was taken from the lake nearby, water catchment area from precipitation.
