QUESTION
Greywater purification and re-use in Whitefield, Bangalore, Karnataka

We are building a 4-bed, 4-bath house on a 60'x40' plot in Bangalore, Whitefield area. Although there is a sewage network in the area, we wish to recycle the grey water from shower/washbasin/laundry.

  • What kind of filter tank is required? Do you have any diagram?
  • Do you require root zone treatment or any aerobic treatment?
  • Can this grey water be used for flushing?
  • Can this grey water be also used for drip irrigation?

Based on past questions, i understand that it requires aeration & coagulant. However, there was no info on area or volume requirements. Since this is just a 60'x40' plot with probably available green space of 10'x20', I was wondering if this kind of treatment is feasible?
