Benchmarking energy consumption and CO2 emissions from rainwater-harvesting systems: An improved method by proxy (2010)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Life cycle analyses (LCAs) show the main operational energy contribution for rainwater-harvesting (RWH) systems come from ultraviolet (UV) disinfection and pumping rainwater from tank to building. Simple methods of estimating pump energy consumption... Read More about Benchmarking energy consumption and CO2 emissions from rainwater-harvesting systems: An improved method by proxy.
