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.

Harvested rainwater quality: The importance of appropriate design (2010)
Journal Article

This paper summarises the physicochemical and microbiological quality of water from a rainwater harvesting (RWH) system in a UK-based office building. 7 microbiological and 34 physicochemical parameters were analysed during an 8 month period. Physico... Read More about Harvested rainwater quality: The importance of appropriate design.

Rainwater harvesting: Model-based design evaluation (2010)
Journal Article

The rate of uptake of rainwater harvesting (RWH) in the UK has been slow to date, but is expected to gain momentum in the near future. The designs of two different new-build rainwater harvesting systems, based on simple methods, are evaluated using t... Read More about Rainwater harvesting: Model-based design evaluation.
