Natural Swimming Pools: More Beauty, No Chemicals
Natural Swimming Pools: More Beauty, No Chemicals:
"Natural swimming pools use plants or a combination of plants and sand filters to keep the water clean and clear without chemicals. They were developed in Austria and Germany in the 1980s and have since grown in popularity worldwide. They can be designed in a multitude of ways: Some look like natural ponds; others may be disguised as standard tiled pools."

Case Study: The Bullitt Center | 2030 Palette Blog
Case Study: The Bullitt Center | 2030 Palette Blog:
The 2030 Palette is a set of distinct actions – or Swatches – for the planning and design of environmentally responsible and resilient buildings and communities worldwide. Our case studies illustrate how a unique palette of Swatches can be applied to create buildings and communities that consume fewer fossil fuels, compliment and preserve sensitive ecosystems, access site renewable energy resources, and can adapt to climatic changes.
The Bullitt Center, currently regarded as one of the greenest office buildings in the world, is an exemplary case study illustrating how a palette of design strategies can result in truly dramatic performance outcomes. Located in in the city of Seattle, this six-story office building is on track to be the largest certified Living Building in the world, achieving energy and water self-sufficiency while creating a healthy, net zero carbon, and beautiful built environment. -- Written by Francesca Desmarais / Architecture 2030

Waste Water Recycling
The Busse MBR technology reliably ensures the cleaning and disinfection of domestic waste water by a stable biologicalprocess and the membrane barrier. Due to this the waste water is made fit for use as re-use water. The operating costs of the plant are only a fraction of the costs for drinking water and the charges for waste water. Therefore recycling is an ecological alternative – especially as the re-use water can be used for watering the garden or flushing toilets. With additional modules it can also be used for washing machines or to fill up pools, etc. |
