Abstract

The Grey Water Processing and Distribution System is a self-contained fully functional grey water collection, processing and dispersing system that runs on grey water collected from internal grey water sources and supplies filtered water to the house's landscaping irrigation system as well as filtered and sanitized flush water to the house's toilets and washing machine for usage and requires standard local power. It incorporates a unique self-cleaning fine screen filter system. The central digital control unit monitors and runs the various system components and manages the house's landscaping irrigation system. The digital control unit also makes sure that the toilets are never without flush water and protects the irrigation system against under and over watering. The internal and external plumbing also allows for the system to be completely bypassed in the event of power failure or the introduction of undesirable contaminants into the grey water source stream.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention provides a system and method which collects grey water and processes it to supply water of sufficient quality for specific reuse purposes. In particular, the system and method comprising a grey water and rainwater source collection sub-system, a digital control unit having input sensors to detect water levels, water flow, water pressure and having control outputs to control integrated pumps and valves, an automatically controlled multi-port valve, an irrigation sub-system and a toilet flush water sub-system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Grey water is a part of the residential buildings waste water without black water. Black water is part of the household waste water and is the drain from toilets therefore containing urine and / or feces. It is the grey water that drains from bath tubs and shower trays, washbasins and washing machines and may also contain high-strength kitchen waste waters that are significant within this application...
