Abstract

One of the most important methods for the protection of water resources is the reuse of water. In this context, one of the interesting options related to wastewater reuse is the gray water recovery method. In this study, the treatment methods and reuse of gray water were discussed by giving the physical and chemical properties of gray water. One advantage of recycling gray water is that it is a abundant, alternative source of urban water, which is relatively easy to treat due to the fact that gray water has low concentrations of organic pollutants and pathogens. The use of treated gray water as a use water will contribute to the protection of water resources as well as positively affect the water balance in nature. Given the lack of water resources, the recycling of gray water seems to be a good option. Today, there are various studies on the design and reuse of gray water treatment systems in urban areas in smart city projects supported by advanced vital technologies, which increase the quality of life of their citizens and ultimately offer a more sustainable future with technological tools. However, the reuse of gray water is rarely applied in Turkey. Treating gray water and using it as reusable water will not only contribute to the protection of water resources, but will also reduce the amount of water used.

Gri Su Arıtımında Teknolojik Yaklaşımlar ve Yeniden Kullanımı

Abstract

Su kaynaklarının korunması için en önemli yöntemlerden biri suyun yeniden kullanımıdır. Bu bağlamda atıksuyun yeniden kullanımıyla ilgili ilginç seçeneklerden birisi ise gri su geri kazanım yöntemidir. Bu çalışmada gri suyun fiziksel ve kimyasal özellikleri verilerek gri suyun arıtım yöntemleri ve yeniden kullanımı ele alınmıştır. Gri suyun geri dönüştürülmesinin bir avantajı, gri suyun düşük konsantrasyonlarda organik kirletici ve patojenlere sahip olması nedeniyle arıtılması nispeten kolay olan bol, alternatif bir kentsel su kaynağı olmasıdır. Arıtılmış gri suyun kullanım suyu olarak kullanılması su kaynaklarının korunmasına katkı sağlayacağı gibi doğadaki su dengesini de olumlu etkileyecektir. Su kaynaklarının eksikliği göz önüne alındığında, gri suyun geri dönüşümü iyi bir seçenek gibi görünmektedir. Günümüzde teknolojik araçlarla vatandaşlarının yaşam kalitesini artırmak ve sonuçta daha sürdürülebilir bir gelecek sunan; ileri yaşamsal teknolojiler ile desteklenmiş akıllı şehir projelerinde şehir içi alanlarda gri su arıtma sistemlerinin dizaynı ve yeniden kullanımıyla ilgili gerçekleştirilen çeşitli çalışmalara rastlanabilmektedir. Ancak gri suyun yeniden kullanımı Türkiye’de nadiren uygulanmaktadır. Gri suyun arıtılıp tekrar kullanım suyu olarak kullanılması su kaynaklarının korunmasına katkı sağlayacağı gibi kullanılan su miktarını da azaltacaktır.
