“…Common uses of harvested rainwater are toilet flushing (Bronchi et al, 1999;Fewkes, 1998;Furumai, 2008;Ghimire et al, 2014;Devkota et al, 2013;Angrill et al, 2012;Tavakol-Davani et al, 2015), irrigation (Li and Gong, 2002;Stout et al, 2015), laundry washing (Bronchi et al, 1999;Angrill et al, 2012), car and parking lot cleaning (Ghisi et al, 2009;Villarreal and Dixon, 2005), and water cooling (Furumai, 2008). Use of harvested rainwater in toilet flushing is especially promising because it constitutes a large fraction (27%) of indoor non-potable water use (Mayer and William, 1999;Vickers, 2001) that does not require significant water treatment (Krishna, 2005;Herrmann and Schimda, 2000;Coombes et al, 2002).…”
