Treated Water Reuse Planner

Allocate a building's treated water across the applications that pay it back — flushing, landscape, cooling and washing — and see what is left for groundwater recharge, all in KLD (kilolitres per day).

Your treated water reuse plan

150 KLD split across five destinations — reuse first, recharge the surplus.

Sending treated water to flushing, landscape and cooling first displaces the freshwater you would otherwise buy — usually the fastest-paying use of every kilolitre your STP recovers.

Whatever is left after reuse — 15 KLD here — is best sent to groundwater recharge or compliant discharge rather than wasted.

How this is calculated

  • Each reuse (KLD) = available × its share ÷ 100. Flushing = 150 × 35% = 52.5 KLD.
  • Allocated to reuse = sum of the four shares = 90%.
  • Groundwater recharge = available × max(0, 100 − allocated) ÷ 100 = 150 × 10% = 15 KLD.

Concept-stage planning only. Actual reuse depends on treated-water quality, storage, dual-plumbing and local reuse norms — confirm demand profiles with a qualified consultant before committing pipework.
