Send the effluent to a tinaca or aljibe. One thing about O3 if sealed up it will keep water sterile for over a year. The nearest agua purificada to us is a 30 mile round trip and no they do not deliver. Plant price 9.5 pesos 19 liters. Price at the little tienda 17 pesos. With the hardness of the water it is impossible to maintain a boiler for longer than three years. So hard the valve to the aljibe clogged solid with rock hard deposits blocking the flow of water. My village system came with sixty plus cartridges and a dozen pre-filters. The same ketch that supplied Quicksilver's teak. The main issue is absolutely no chlorine. So when the pueblo is delivering five hours of water every second day the R/O and sterilizer go active. The UV system passes 1/2 the GPH as required. Hopefully will kill more pathogens. Brenda does a final rinse in R/O water and it is a miracle for making clothes feel softer. Each load of water goes into the garden. My effluent is split between my garden and the long line of coconut palms. Extra from the kitchen went out the window onto the forty year old limon tree. Shower water to the 2 Haden mangos and black water to near the parota tree that sees to thrive. I also compost in a 60 or so gallon carbuoy. I am getting so weak I had a ships wheel built to revolve it. The hens contribute. It gets shaded by a tarp from noon till sundown. After a month, pitch black loam.
The fine-tuning of personal logistics is an art form. Like me spending hours on English websites. I often do not speak English for many months at a time. The last time to the doctor in the USA, the waitress who brought the coffee to Eduardo and I blurted "Senor, Spanish is easier for you". Eduardo, howled and banged his fist on the table. It really is embarrassing.
