How does the use of greywater differ from water reclamation?
a.
if collected separately, greywater can be used for certain applications without treatment.
b.
greywater use is more costly than water reclamation.
c.
water obtained from water reclamation processes can be used for drinking, while greywater cannot.
d.
greywater has been mixed with sewage while water used in water reclamation is derived from cleaning water.

Answer;

C. Water obtained from water reclamation processes can be used for drinking, while greywater cannot.

Explanation;

-Greywater is wastewater generated from domestic activities such as laundry, dishwashing, and bathing, which can be recycled on-site for uses such as landscape irrigation and constructed wetlands.

-Greywater differs from water from the toilets which is designated sewage or blackwater to indicate it contains human waste. Greywater is of lesser quality than the water directly from your faucet, but of higher quality than blackwater, hence the appropriateness of the term greywater.

The answer is A!

If collected separately, greywater can be used for certain applications without treatment.

Explanation:

Neither graywater or reclaimed water are potable(safe for drinking) however gray water(does not include water from flushed toilets) collected from sinks, washing machines, and showers can be reused immediately onsite without an treatment typically for landscape or garden irrigation.(US EPA)

What Is Water Recycling?

Recycle: verb

To recover useful materials from garbage or waste

To extract and reuse.

While recycling is a term generally applied to aluminum cans, glass bottles, and newspapers, water can be recycled as well. Water recycling is reusing treated wastewater for beneficial purposes such as agricultural and landscape irrigation, industrial processes, toilet flushing, and replenishing a ground water basin (referred to as ground water recharge). Water recycling offers resource and financial savings. Wastewater treatment can be tailored to meet the water quality requirements of a planned reuse. Recycled water for landscape irrigation requires less treatment than recycled water for drinking water. No documented cases of human health problems due to contact with recycled water that has been treated to standards, criteria, and regulations have been reported.

Water is sometimes recycled and reused onsite. For example, when an industrial facility recycles water used for cooling processes. A common type of recycled water is water that has been reclaimed from municipal wastewater, or sewage. The term water recycling is generally used synonymously with water reclamation and water reuse.

Another type of recycled water is "gray water".Gray water, or gray water, is reusable wastewater from residential, commercial and industrial bathroom sinks, bath tub shower drains, and clothes washing equipment drains.  Gray water is reused onsite, typically for landscape irrigation.  Use of non toxic and low-sodium (no added sodium or substances that are naturally high in sodium) soap and personal care products is required to protect vegetation when reusing gray water for irrigation.
