Abstract

This work proposes the idea of “Human hair boom skimmer” in addition to the conventional flow grey water treatment. The conventional method of treating grey water doesn’t pose a promising solution in reducing the amount of oil content from it. Rather than discarding the human hair, it can be used to absorb the oil from the grey water. The oil adsorption capability of wasted hair fibers could produce valuable solutions for our prevalent and modern society. Our concept “An Efficient Grey Water Stagnancy Handler” concentrates on three major phases: Phase-1, deals with the drastic problem being faced by the surrounding environment with slip and falls due to the improper collection of grey water from the bathroom floors, Phase-2 address the eco-friendly and cost-efficient methodology to treat the grey water, Phase-3 tackles the dwindling water resources for crops cultivation by the diversion of processed water to the required place wherein immediate need of it. Thereby, the grey water from the bathroom sink is no doubt a valuable resource that can be used to alleviate the water shortage problems and increase water conservation in individual households. Therefore, an alternative eco-friendly method rather than the conventional method as mentioned above could pose a firm solution.
