3 Aiming for Net Zero: Onsite Water Treatment Systems

Charles Upshaw, University of Texas at Austin
As water scarcity and utility prices increase, building water consumption is an increasingly important aspect of sustainability and efficiency. For buildings where water-efficient fixtures and cooling system upgrades have already been made, the final step toward ‘net zero’ water consumption is capture, treatment, and re-use of onsite and auxiliary water sources. This presentation provides an overview of onsite auxiliary water sources, treatment systems and other equipment required for various uses, and the site energy implications of net zero water buildings
