“…Blackwater and greywater segregation has been recommended during the biological treatment in order to reach the quality of the final effluent for reuse purposes (Mah et al . ). The segregation of blackwater and greywater seemed to be one of the best practices for minimizing the treatment cost.…”

“…A life cycle analysis completed in Alexandria (Egypt) concluded that decentralised scenarios which included the separation and reuse of urine, faeces and greywater at source showed the lowest environmental impact as compared to more centralised approaches (El-Sayed et al, 2010). The separation of low polluted water at source and water reuse onsite generates a series of positive externalities such as reduced water demand and treatment requirements (Mah et al, 2009). In addition, rainwater harvesting technologies contribute to minimise the volume of stormwater run-off produced as well as other associated impacts such as floods and the pollution of the receiving water bodies (Herman and Schmida, 1999;Hatt et al, 2004).…”

“…(Domene and Sauri, 2006;Ghisi and Ferreira, 2007;Karpiscak, 1990). Other studies showed that greywater reuse provides potential potable water savings of about 40% in residential buildings in Malaysia (Mah et al, 2009) and up to 43% in Denmark (Revitt et al, 2011). Therefore the issue of greywater reclamation and reuse has drawn significant research attention in the recent past for minimizing the fresh water shortage and sustainable water management as well as environmental protection.…”
