Abstract - Inpatient Installation Room (IRNA) is a facility that is owned by each hospital, which requires a source of clean water with a large capacity and produces large amounts of wastewater as well. Wastewater in the form of gray water, black water, or special wastewater can be treated before being discharged or reused as a source of recycle water. The main elements in the concept of sustainability are “reduce, reuse, and recycle”, the concept can be applied to the building planning, one of which is the building utility system. The application of the concept of sustainability in the NURI building is found in the building wastewater treatment system (Gray water) as a source of recycle water that is used specifically for a flush on the toilet. The method used in this study is a descriptive method with a quantitative field data analysis approach, namely data on the number of building users, the capacity of clean water, wastewater, and recycle water, as well as the dimensions of the water reservoir. This study aims to determine and understand the effectiveness of the volume and use of space for reservoirs of clean water, wastewater, and recycle water by applying the concept of sustainability to the building wastewater treatment system in the building. Keywords – Hospital, Wastewater, Recycle Water, Sustainability, NURI Building.

This chapter elaborates the importance of water and wastewater treatment to human, environment, and world. It further discusses the water-borne diseases and other effects without implementation of water and wastewater treatment system. The principles of treatments are elaborated in detail as well. The standard parameters and value needed to be checked and compiled by the water and wastewater treatment system are not forgotten. This chapter explains the sources of water pollution such as from geography, ecology, and industry site. It also includes thoughtful discussion on causative factors behind water pollution, either human or other activity. The chapter views the importance of clean water in a variety of economic aspects. Without clean water what will happen to the world economy?

This paper describes a pilot plant study on the performance of a hybrid small municipal wastewater treatment system consisting of a jet mixed separator(JMS) and upgraded RBC. The JMS was used as a pre-treatment of the RBC instead of the primary clarifier. The treatment capacity of the system was fixed at 100 m3/d, corresponding to the hydraulic loading to the RBC of 117 L/m2/d. The effluent from the grid chamber at a municipal wastewater treatment plant was fed into the hybrid system. The RBC was operated using the electric power produced by a solar electric generation panel with a surface area of 8 m2 under enough sunlight. In order to reduce the organic loading to the RBC, polyaluminium chloride(PAC) was added to the JMS influent to remove the colloidal and suspended organic particles. At the operational condition where the A1 dosage and hydraulic retention time of the JMS were fixed at 5 g/m3 and 45 min., respectively, the average effluent water quality of hybrid system was as follows: TOC=8 g/m3, Total BOD=8 g/m3, SS=8 g/m3, Turbidity=6 TU, NH4-N=7 g/m3, T-P=0.5 g/m3. In this operating condition, electric power consumption of the RBC for treating unit volume of wastewater is only 0.07 KWH/m3.

Water quality may be affected by aspects such as pollution from industries, agricultural fertilizers and pesticides, and waste produced by humans. This contamination can affect the produce of the fields irrigated by untreated water. Therefore, it is necessary to add a treatment process in irrigation systems. In this paper, an architecture, communication protocol, and a data analysis algorithm for a wastewater treatment system intended for irrigation are presented. Our system includes a smart group-based wireless sensor network that is able to detect high salinity levels and pollution stains, such as oil spills. When contamination is detected, the water is led into auxiliary canals that perform the biosorption process to treat the water and dump it back into the main canal. Simulations were performed to assess the amount of data stored on the secure digital (SD) card, the consumed bandwidth, and the energy consumption of our proposal. The results show the system has a low bandwidth consumption with a maximum of 2.58 kbps for the setting of two daily data transmissions of the node in the last auxiliary canal. Furthermore, it can sustain the energy consumption in adverse conditions, where the node with the highest energy consumption reaches the lowest energy value of 12,320 mW/h.
