Hi their all from South Africa,
Q: Kevin, I’d like to change subject slightly, only to move Anoxic Filtration into a green home environment ,to save and clean one’s own wastewater .
Using other green methods in conjunction with Anoxic Filtration:
Will it be able to clean one’s Greywater?

A: For those of you that
are not in-the-know with Greywater: Greywater is nothing more than discharged
water from sinks, washing machine, showers and/or bath water etc., and accounts
for over 50% or more of the water that is discharge in homes throughout the
world. It is not toilet water; toilet water is classified as black-water and
carries many pathogens along with large amounts of nitrogen.
Greywater is recyclable, and
carries 90% less nitrogen than blackwater and can be treated in a residential
wastewater treatment system for irrigation, toilets, etc., and is mainly used
for water conservation when such is in dire straits or in limited or restricted
supply.
A residential system generally
consists of a sand filtration system, holding tank/s, and an irrigation or
leaching system. If the Anoxic filter is used in conjunction with other
greywater cleaning system or green methods as per say, it can be used as an
end unit green system and is easily made larger (by making it longer) for such
purposes. Such cleaning systems are nothing new in Europe
sewerage treatment facilities and others around the world. The Anoxic
filtration system can be used in conjunction with other green systems for such,
unlike other filtration system ponders use that would not work or be useless
for such.
If you are thinking about using the Anoxic
filtration system (as an irrigated greenhouse) for such then go ahead and employ
it. It is the only hobbyist filtration system that can be used for greywater
cleaning and can be cheaply made on top of that. The Anoxic system can actually
save water that we think of in the USA as “wastewater.” It’s about time someone started using their
heads and started looking beyond the pond aspects of filtration for the Anoxic
Filtration System.
Some hobbyists have even drunk the water from
their ponds to show how clean the filter can make it. Though I do not advocate
such because of parasites that may be hidden in the discharged water return
outlet, I must say that’s having this much faith in a filtration system for
ponds is quite admirable.
