The Natural Greywater Cleansing System page outlines the open-source greywater systems for the Earthbag Village and Duplicable City Center. Both process shower water and liquid waste (no sewage) for safe reuse in agriculture and toilets. Using reed beds, ponds, and UV sterilization, the systems offer eco-friendly water recycling and purification for sustainable living.

Open Source Natural Greywater Cleansing and Processing System Design

open source natural greywater cleansing system page that will evolve with the open source project-launch blueprinting of the One Community Earthbag Village (Pod 1) and Duplicable City Center greywater systems. The goal of this page is to host complete details for construction and maintenance of these greywater systems.

The Tropical Atrium is a multifunctional space for Pod 1, maintaining 60-90°F and 40-70% humidity. It supports food growth, rainwater capture, and recycled heat from showers. Heating, cooling, and humidity are controlled with solar design, thermal mass, venting, and adaptable features for various climates.

Kudos to the city of #Alameda and #EBMUD for investing in water recycling!

This will be a KEY technology in the path to water #sustainability.

Here's hoping other cities follow Alameda's lead!

Alameda Takes First Step to Use Millions of Gallons of Recycled Wastewater | KQED

The project, which kicked off on Friday, would use the recycled water for irrigation and industry — helping to preserve non-recycled water for drinking and to improve the city’s drought preparedness.

NASA now recycles 98% of astronauts’ urine and sweat

A new water recycling system on the ISS can recover a record-breaking 98% of the water used by astronauts.

Freethink Media

NASA announced astronauts aboard the International Space Station have been able to recover 98% of the water that crews take into space with them by recycling everything from urine to sweat.

"NASA Achieves Water Recovery Milestone on International Space Station

(...) “This is a very important step forward in the evolution of life support systems,” says Christopher Brown, part of the team at Johnson Space Center that manages the space station’s life support system. “Let’s say you collect 100 pounds of water on the station. You lose two pounds of that and the other 98% just keeps going around and around. Keeping that running is a pretty awesome achievement.”
(...)
The team acknowledges that the idea of drinking recycled urine might make some people squeamish. But they stress that the end result is far superior to what municipal water systems produce on the ground."

NASA Achieves Water Recovery Milestone on International Space Station

ECLSS is a combination of hardware that includes a Water Recovery System. This system collects wastewater and sends it to the Water Processor Assembly (WPA), which produces drinkable water. One specialized component uses advanced dehumidifiers to capture moisture released into the cabin air from crew breath and sweat.
