Abstract
Many countries are facing increasing pressure to treat municipal wastewater due to rapid growing population in the urban cities. This paper reports a novel design based on an integrated water plumbing system to treat and reuse the household wastewater. The design facilitates simple and efficient collection, treatment, and reuse of wastewater within a household. The detailed design and operation procedure are presented. Implementation of simple and efficient design within a household is a viable solution to the problems faced by increased pressure on domestic wastewater treatments; it also offers savings to the residents and promotes the concept of green building.
