    5 R-Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Refuse, Recover

    Uploaded by

    Angelie Lape
    This document discusses the 5 R's of reducing waste - refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and recover. It focuses on recycling and reusing water. Recycled water is treated wastewater that can be used for irrigation, industrial processes, and replenishing groundwater. Greywater from bathing and laundry can be reused for outdoor uses like landscaping after treatment, while blackwater from toilets requires further treatment before reuse indoors. Reusing water provides benefits like conserving water resources and reducing pollution. Proper treatment and maintenance is needed to address issues like pathogens. Industries can also reduce wastewater by analyzing processes, prevention programs, and proper treatment technologies. Materials like water, energy, and

    5 R- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Refuse, Recover

    1. 1. REFUSE, REDUCE, RECYCLE, REUSE, RECOVERY Akash Tikhe

    2. 2. RECYCLING Recycled water, is former wastewater that is treated to remove solids and
    certain impurities, and used in sustainable landscaping irrigation or to recharge groundwater
    aquifers. Recycled water can be use for agricultural and landscape irrigation, industrial
    processes, toilet flushing, and to recharge ground water basins.
    3. 3. USE OF RECYCLED WATER Agriculture Landscape Public parks Golf course
    irrigation Cooling water for power plants and oil refineries Processing water for mills,
    plants Toilet flushing Dust control Construction activities Concrete mixing Artificial
    lakes
    4. 4. REUSE Water reuse describes the process whereby wastewater treated to an
    appropriate standard, is reused for a variety of beneficial purposes. The treated water ready
    to be reused is termed recycled or reclaimed water.
    5. 5. TYPE OF WASTEWATER FOR REUSE Greywater Bathroom, washbasin, laundry, kitchen
    waste Blackwater Toilet flushing toilet flushing clothes washing gardening suitable only for
    outdoor use i.e. groundwater recharge, fountains
    6. 6. REUSE OF GREYWATER
    7. 7. GREYWATER TREATMENT The treatment may be biological, chemical or mechanical.
    The qualities of treated water they produce can vary considerably, as well as their energy
    consumption and initial cost.
    8. 8. DISINFECTION Disinfection is required for indoor re-use of greywater, which requires
    regular maintenance. Chlorine is most commonly used for disinfection. However, it has
    adverse environmental impacts. Alternatives disinfectant can be ultraviolet (UV) or ozone.
    9. 9. RELIANCE PETROLEUM LIMITED, JAMNAGAR Wastewater Reclamation Plant
    (capacity=48,000 m/d) LTDS (oily condensates & contaminated storm waters) TDS <500
    mg/l Chloride <300 mg/l HTDS (oily wastewater & contains dissolved salts such as NaCI,
    neutralized spent caustic and contaminated cooling water TDS 1000 to 2000 mg/l cooling
    tower for local green belt development irrigation Cooling tower Primary treatment API-
    separator and dissolved air flotation for oil removal ASP & Biotowers with plastic packings
    Dual media FiltersGranular Activated Carbon Biological treatment Tertiary FiltrationAdvance

    10. 10. ADVANTAGES Use less water resources. Irrigate your gardens during drought water
    restrictions. Cut down the amount of pollution going into our waterways. Help save
    money on new infrastructure for water provision and wastewater treatment.
    11. 11. ISSUES Reusing greywater for washing clothes may cause discoloration of clothing
    due to dissolved organic material. This can be avoided by installing an activated carbon filter.
    It cannot be stored untreated for longer than a few hours as it begins to turn septic and
    smell. It can contain significant numbers of pathogens which spread disease. The mode
    of living in home i.e. holiday home that have intermittent use
    12. 12. ISSUES Seasonal variation in generation of wastewater In order to re-use greywater
    indoors for toilet flushing and clothes washing you will need to firstly: Separate greywater
    and blackwater waste streams. Install a greywater treatment and disinfection Financial
    cost of installing and maintaining a re-use system
    13. 13. REDUCE Take a short shower Use appropriate shower head Wash full load for
    laundry Regular maintenance and repairing of water leakages Choose recycled product
    Avoid using dishwasher Water the lawn early in the morning Avoid using running tap in
    wash basin while brushing and shaving Avoid unnecessary flushing
    14. 14. REDUCTION OF WASTEWATER IN INDUSTRIES Key steps of Wastewater
    Management Step 1: Analyze manufacturing processes; gain an understanding of how
    wastewater is produced. Step 2: Develop a pollution prevention program based on the gained
    knowledge from analyzing the manufacturing process. Step 3: Choice of candidate treatment
    technology for proper process control and waste minimization.
    15. 15. WHAT CAN WE RECOVER FROM WASTEWATER? Water Reuse Bio-Energy Salts
    ((Organic) Fertilizer
