摘要:Environmental pollution is a global concern because of the harmful effects on public health and the environment. In present scenario, the availability of water is a major challenge. Alternative water sources available include rainwater, sea and brackish water, grey water and domestic or municipal waste water. Among these, grey water represents the most profitable sources in terms of its reliability, availability and raw water quality. In this research a cost effective system to meet the water requirements is established. From the experimental results we found that grey water can be treated by using drawer sand filter and the treated grey water can be reused for domestic purposes. The paper concludes that DCSF(Drawer Compacted Sand Filters) would be appropriate for use in dense urban areas as its footprint is small and appropriate for a wide range of users.
