Greywater Recycling Systems
Economic Implications and Environmental Analysis of Residential and Commercial Building Greywater Recycling Systems
For rapidly increasing per capita water consumption in an emerging economy like India, Grey Water Recycling (GWR) systems appear to become in future a mandatory and inevitable component in residential and commercial facilities. Though such technologies are quite successful in Western nations but apparently high initial and investment costs tend to reduce the feasibility of such systems in India. This paper aims in analyzing the affordability of such systems considering the life cycle costs of such technologies which is a firm base for evaluating economic feasibility of such technologies.
