Purpose and Background
A recent Scientific American cover story described the current and deteriorating water situation as the "next oil crisis" due to flooding, scarcity, and quality challenges. Grey water systems are a green innovative tool which may help improve or solve these critical problems in a cost-effective manner. While the interest level is high, many consultants and public agencies are not fully-versed in the practical application and implementation of grey water systems.
Participants in this webinar will understand the benefits and uses of grey water and receive insight into the design and permitting process. This webinar will focus on fundamental calculations for estimating water demand and sizing grey water systems as well as system components and design details. An overview of permits and codes and general maintenance requirements will be provided.
