Editorial Reviews
Gardens, greenhouses and groves of trees will gradually replace sewage outfall pipes and leach fields. Imagine using sewage to fertilize ecological tree plantations that provide fuel, fiber, construction materials, wildlife habitats and beautiful landscapes. A small pig farm’s wastewater will grow a tree farm instead of polluting a river. A house’s wastewater will irrigate and fertilize its surrounding landscape. A planted roof will collect and filter rainwater for use in the house.
Reusing the Resource: Adventures in Ecological Wastewater Recycling profiles more than 30 successful ecological wastewater management systems highlighting such techniques as using plants to stabilize, clean, filter and use up wastewater or discharging it to be used again to flush toilets or irrigate plants. The beauty of these scenarios is that they save money and do a better job of protecting public and environmental health, turning what was a disposal challenge into an amenity and a resource.
Written for both engineers and non-technical individuals, Reusing the Resource: Adventures in Wastewater Recycling is inspiring and easy-to-read, with plenty of information showing that the solution to water pollution is to grow it away!
