Grey Water Project

Another project at the 4H I am helping implement is a grey water filtration system. It is a system that takes waster water, termed "grey water", from kitchen basins, showers and other basins and passes it through a filtration made of different sized stones. Once it leaves the filter it passes through a chamber where it is chlorinated, to disinfect the remaining bacteria/pathogens, and pumped and stored in tanks. From there it can be used to water crops or piped back to flush toilets, used in showers or wash dishes. In our case we will will use it for irrigating the land and watering some crops.
