Decentralized Water Management: Rainwater Harvesting, Greywater Reuse and Green Roofs within the GST4Water Project

Decentralized Water Management: Rainwater Harvesting, Greywater Reuse and Green Roofs within the GST4Water Project

this study proposes the results of a research activity devoted to the analysis and development of methodologies, models and strategies, which allow integrating decentralized solutions such as rainwater harvesting, greywater reuse systems, and green technologies in buildings. A methodology based on a...
