Description
One of the first and special greywater recycling systems in France is installed in Bordeaux by AQUAPURE Systems with a daily treatment volume of 5400 liters. The new “French Decree no. 2024-796 of July 12, 2024 on the use of water which is not for human consumption” France now officially enables the reuse of process water. In this building the water, which is mainly run-off water from showers, bathtubs and washbasin is used for toilet flushing and irrigation of the entire building. Furthermore, the runoff water from a special evaporation green roof (phytopurification) is connected to the AQUALOOP system. The system is managed with an I-CONNECT control system. The clean service water is pumped to the consumers by our pressure boosting systems, the RAINMASTER DUPLEX systems. In order to achieve the greatest possible safety, the already ultrafiltrated service water passes through a UV treatment as the last stage. A non-stop control of the water quality is realised by specific probes and automatically implemented.
