Inga's House Biofilter Specifications

Micha:

'''Site under construction'''

=Introduction=

See [[Inga's House/DesignSpecifications]] for general design.

=Requirements/Wishes=

*Handles black/greywater from Inga's house
*One possible solution is a closed-loop water system featuring the biofilter, where water is pumped back for flushing
*We may use natural rainwater runoff to fill the biofilter system initially
*System should be designed first according to [[OSE Specifications]]
*It should be modular, so that other houses can alse feed into it/from it
*It should generate flushing water, and possibly have a final filtering option for getting potable water/shower water
*It should be low cost
*It should be low maintenance
*It should have low energy input requirement (pumping)
*It should be ecological and regenerative, such as creating habitat, possibly human use
*It should be consistent with [[Inga's House/SiteDocumentation | Inga's House Site Analysis]]

==Possible Treatment Methods==
As those are the least costly, maitenance needing and lowest energy versions for the smallest amount

==Good Gray Water Summary==

==Strategic Planning==

For the new-house builder
*http://oasisdesign.net/greywater/buildersguide/actionssummary.htm

==Things to consider==

1)hydraulic load
2)load of easily degradable organic matter and BOD (biochemical oxygen demand)

ad1)maximum load of water:
estimated gray water amount for one person
(incl. rain/storm water for mulch basin and planted soil filters):
*http://www.rssweather.com/climate/Missouri/Kansas%20City/)

see also: Percolation Test

ad 2)possible properties of gray water:
Organic Compounds
Pathogens
Nutrients
Metals/Toxins

3)Source Control:
water-conservation methods

==Tests and Preparations==

Percolation Test: to determine the water absorption rate of the soil
In general, soils are classified as clay soils, sandy soils, or loamy soils. Clay is nutrient rich, but slow draining. Sand is quick draining, but has trouble retaining nutrients and moisture. Loam is generally considered to be ideal soil because it retains moisture and nutrients but doesn’t stay soggy.

Micha:

Here we collect some inspiring links:

=== Biohome ===
* Ben Spock de Vries: construction foam http://biohome.net/ I like this system, could be integrated to CEB.
* It makes an excellent building material, its note like cement, but light and easy to work with and perfect insulation.
* Once the structure is in place, it can be easily continued by 2 people in a day.
* polyurethane: does not offgas, no mold, fire-resistant. See http://www.ncfi.com/ - NCFI 3lb high density polyurethane foam is the material
* bubble windows like lenses
* '''maybe good for the dome'''

===living home===
*micha: something for garden: http://www.weidenbau.at/ A dome made of living willows (salix), website is german, but the pictures(http://www.weidenbau.at/impressionen.htm ; http://www.weidenbau.at/schallerbach.htm) hold the most info anyway.

Inga's Water System

2009-07-12T14:18:00Z

Micha:

=Initial Design Rationale=

*Backhoe a pond connected to downstream runoff from top of property - to fill water supply naturally
*Plant a wetland in this pond
*Secondary filter for generating household potable water
*Greywater for irrigation

[[Image:ingaswatersystem.jpg]]

=Considerations=
*Plumbing
*Pumping
*Storage, containers

Water System planned for more Houses at the same time: modularity

Micha:

to water theme!

would also consider the water from the roof of the building - could go into the pond for use in the house.

grey water from washing - that could first be used for the toilet flush, and then

final grey water - into a septic tank?? (needs maintenance!!, honey sucker or similar)

or opt for a dry toilet system - no water, only a doubled tank, with a 'mobile' seat, and the two holes are used only for some months each!! you need a good ventilation system above roof!!

in this case water will be completely separated from toilet!!

grey water: if only natural detergents, soaps and similar (no oil or other similar residues from kitchen) natural drainage can work. Dig a hole and fill with stones and pebbles and let the water drain and filter naturally.
