Sistemas de aproveitamento de águas pluviais em habitações unifamiliares: funcionamento hidráulico de um sistema de drenagem sifónica
| Resumo: | Rainwater harvesting systems allow the usage of properly collected, treated and supplied rainwater for domestic use in situations without good water quality requirement. To be sustainable, a rainwater harvesting system must be truly ecological, economically viable, socially fair and culturally diverse. The key element for this system is the first-flush device, which allows the deviation of the first rains which carry a significant load of pollutants and are not suitable even for non potable use. This article develops a theoretical and experimental study on a rainwater harvesting system for use in a single family dwelling. The main goal is to describe the hydraulic operation of syphonic drainage systems by the incorporation of a first-flush device in a laboratory installed rainwater harvesting system. |
