NSI Contributions
NSI designed a greywater treatment and reuse system for the new residential buildings 7A and 7B on the Arizona State University Campus. Greywater from building sinks, water fountains, and showers is treated to a reuse standard suitable as a water closet supply and/or an irrigation supply. The Greywater design flow is 10,000 gallons per day.
The onsite greywater treatment and reuse system incorporates the following treatment elements: Equalization and filtration tank, Recirculating sand filter, Associated pumps, controls and filters for reuse as irrigation, the irrigation system will be designed by a partner firm. The final product will be an excellent example of campus housing and achieve a LEED Silver designation.
