Introduction The Reed filter tower design is part of the design studio “3D Nature� of The Why Factory. In this studio we did research on the topic of how to combine architecture and urbanism with nature. In the last phase of the studio each student did research on one topic. We had to design a residential building or tower combined with added elements of nature. The residential tower has a program of 100 households with each 3 persons. There were different categories in which you could choose a topic: Food-production, Biodiversity, Leisure and Purifiers/Energizers. The reed filter tower is part of the purification/energizers category. The Research will mainly focus on the purification of wastewater and will further look for possibilities to gain energy and minerals out of the waste water.

1. Water Purification
Why should we need a water purification tower? One of the things you could say about The Netherlands is that it has a lot of water. So why should we need a water purification tower in The Netherlands? That’s because even in The Netherlands there’s a growing scarcity of fresh and clean drinking water, due to contamination, increasing drought periods and salinization of aquifers 1. Most of the drinking water in The Netherlands comes from groundwater, which is often very clean and needs almost none treatment. But groundwater levels fall and become salinated, so more water needs to be gathered from surface water, which needs more treatment due to higher contamination. The result is a more intensive purifications treatment, which increasingly cost more energy and investments 1. The Netherlands is one of the countries with increasing rainwater deficits 2, that because we also use a lot of water in the intensive agricultural and livestock farming industries.
* Water scarcity * Contamination of water * Salinization of aquifers * Increasing drought * Energy and money saving * Precipitation deficit
So why can’t we reduce our waste-water output and purify the wastewater by ourselves, in a natural way and with little energy. The reed-filter tower I made, purifies your own wastewater on an natural way by reed bed filters and uses very little energy. Just a small amount of the water gets purified with installations, which are very energy sufficient.

Performance Main Target:
10 Se in (N
Be 100% self-sufficient in water-use with only using rainwater supply. The waste-water has to get purified with reed-bed filters for re-use. Reed-bed purification: Wastewater can be purified in an natural way by the use of a reed-bed purification system. The bacteria in the soil of the reeds purify the water, by breaking off the contaminants. The reeds are providing oxygen for these bacteria and thereby maintain the purifying process. Minerals and energy in wastewater: The aim is to look at the wastewater as a source of energy and minerals, it’s more than just waste. Waste water contains a lot of minerals like phosphates and nitrates, which are used in fertilizers. The wastewater can also be used as a supply for fermentation into biogas. The average temperature of wastewater is 23 °C, which means we flush a lot of (potential) energy through the sewer.
100% self-sufficient in water-use. BIO-gas No wastewater outflow.
fermentation
Improving living quality: The reeds could be beneficial for the living environment within in the tower as well for the urban environment. View on the reeds, water ponds (with fish) and flowers can improve the living quality within the tower. The plants and ponds can also reduce the ‘Heat Island”effect in urban area’s just like green-roofs do. By evaporation these plants can cool the surrounding area. The reeds can also attract animals like birds, on the other hand they might also attract unwanted animals or insects, this is something that should be prevented.

By using uses only 1l per flush
Daily water-use and wastewater production:
The average daily water consumption of a Dutch person is 121.1 litres. Almost 30% of the water is used for flushing the toilet. The wastewater generated by toilets is called “blackwater”. Blackwater is the most contaminated water a household produces and thereby the type of wastewater that needs the most effort and treatment to purify. All the water which is not coming out of the toilet is called “Grey”water, which is less contaminated.
Reduce the water-use by vacuum toilet:
and reduce the outflow of (highly) contaminated blackwater by 77.7%. The vacuum toilet only uses 1 litres per flush. The contamination in the remaining 7.5 litres of blackwater is then far more concentrated and makes is therefore suitable for fermentation into biogas or fertilizer.
See Appendix: “Water-use”

Watercycle with different water-types Different water qualities and wastewater types: The water cycle contains different types of input and output water-types. The outflow of wastewater is divided in two water-types like earlier described: grey-water and blackwater. The wastewater gets purified into one of two water qualities. The most treated water is: “Water-quality 1”, which complies drinking water quality. A large amount of the daily water-use needs to be drinking water quality due to strict legislations. A small part of the daily water-use can be of less water quality, which is called “water-quality 2” in this project. Water quality 2 can be used mainly for cleaning and flushing toilets.

Water purification The water needs to be purified into different water-qualities. First the grey-water and the blackwater come together in the grease trap. The grey and blackwater were first separated because of the fermentation of the blackwater, which will be explained later. After the fermentation the residue will be first treated in a septic tank before its comes together with the grey-water in the grease-trap.
After the grease trap and the pump station the grey-water will be purified into “water-quality 2” by the reed-bed filter. After purifying, the water is collected in a pond. The pond functions as a natural water storage, which is needed to withstand drought periods. Water plants and fish will keep the water clean. Because of evaporation some water gets lost, which needs to be replaced by rainwater. For the use of drinking water, the water will be treated one step further with the “Puralytics”purification system and collected in water-storage tank.

Waterloss Needs to be filled with Rainwater During the fermentation of the blackwater into biogas some of the water will get lost out of the system: 4 litres per person a day. By evaporation of water in the reed-beds and the pond another 12.8 litres per person a day will vanish. The evaporation values are based on yearly averages, in summer there will be far more evaporation, in winter nearly zero. The water-loss has to be replaced by Rainwater supply, this means for each person in the tower 16.8 litres per day.

“Puralytics” system The “Puralytics” system combines nano-technology and UV-light to purify contaminated water into drinking water. The system has won many prices in the United States. The system is used to purify the water from the pond one step further into drinking water quality. The water which is purified with the reed filters may not be used as drinking water or for the use of body hygiene due to strict legislation. The water quality is simply not good enough after purification with reed-bed filters. This is one of the rare systems which is able to do it. The device is roughly the size of an desktop computer. It has a very low energy-use of 635 Watt, this is similar to the energy usage of three big flat screens. The system has a capacity of 757 to 1892 litres a day, which means the system can purify the water needs of roughly 12 to 29 people each day: • 757 litres/day / 64.9 litres p.p./day = 11.66 people • 1892 litres/day / 64.9 litres p.p./day = 29.15 people The system requires very little maintenance because there are no filters or membrane which have to cleaned. It destroys all the contaminants instead filter it.

4. Fermentation & Energy
Fermentation plant
Blackwater sludge from vacuumtoilet Organic waste from households
The fermentation plant uses co-fermentation of different biomass to produce biogas. three different types of biomass are used: Blackwater from vacuum toilets, biomass from cutting reeds and organic waste of households. The fermentation process is more (cost) efficient on a bigger scale. That’s why the tower has 8 fermentation plants which each cover 13 to 14 households. 37

“Plant-E” system A new technique invented by Wageningen University called “Plant-E” gains energy out of growing (wetland) plants like reeds. If combined with the reed-bed filters this system could possibly produce electricity for each household. Electricity out of (wetland) plants: 14 - 28 kWh/m2/year (theoretically) 18 m2 x 24 kWh/ year = 504 kWh per household/ year = 12.2 % of household use 18 m2 x 14 kWh/ year = 252 kWh per household/ year = 6.1 % of household use

Total Waste(water) Cycle The total waste(water) cycle that the tower can recycles almost 100% of the wastewater and uses the organic waste and blackwater for producing biogass. The produced biogas covers 7 % of the towers gas needs. The “plant-E”system gains electricity out of growing reeds, which theoretically can cover 6 - 12% of the towers needs. Organic waste

“Vertical flow” reed-bed filter The scheme shows the different components of the system. The first two element are the grease trap and the pump-station, they are part of the pre-treatment of the water, to filter the first contaminations out of the water. The second step is the reed-bed filter itself. The wastewater gets sprayed equally over the reed-bed once or twice a day. In the following process, the water penetrates trough the soil. The soil has three different layers: the upper-layer is sand, then gravel and the bottom-layer is made out of course pebbles with a 10-20 cm diameter. The water gets purified by bacteria in the soil which live in the root-system of the reeds.
Grease trap

1 m2 height: 1200 mm
Pump station

The bacteria live there because of the marshy soil in combination with oxygen supply from the reeds. The bacteria break-down various types of contaminations and thereby purify the water. Thereafter the water is collected in a pond. The pond must contain different (purifying) plants and fish to maintain the right water quality. The life span of one reed-bed is 12 to 25 years, after that period the soil has to be replaced and new reeds has to be grown. The soil will be full of organic contaminations which can be used as fertilizer. Furthermore the reeds has to be pruned once or twice a year.

The tower needs a rainwater surface of 2800 m2. Underneath this surface a minimum of four stories is needed to cover the required space for housing. The nature-voxels, including the whole reedfilter system covers almost the same area a the area required for rainwater collection. The fermentation plants need only 6.4 voxels. 71

Testing in grasshopper: I used the Grasshopper script provided by my tutor (Arend van Waart), the “Nature maker 1.3.1” for testing designs on sunlight and exposed surface and rainfall collection. A few of the designs were made during the “lego tower exercises” other models were newly 75
made based on archetype studies done by the modelling group ( Firat Isik, Fang Ting Lim and Calcen Chan). In able to compare all the models with each other, I scaled the models in Rhino so they each had about 700 voxels. Then I tested them on sunlight exposure, exposed surface and collected rainwater.

Results own models: Especially the mountain shaped models were performing well on both criteria. The spiral shaped model performed well on sunlight, but that’s because there’s a open space (air) between each level. The “Mountain 1” and “Valley” models performed best. 78
Creating terraces, reduce the footprint
Formula for creating terraces, by shifting each level
The archetype study showed a high performance for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;terraced 3â&#x20AC;? archetype, in the next step of the design process this archetype will be used to design other shapes with, like the valley and pyramid shape, which also performed well.
Shift per level = terrace depth = ((A / length (x-direction) of building) - length (y-direction) of household) / (S -1) A = Needed rainwater collection area 2800 m2 S = Amount of stories y- axis

Calculating the terraces: The diagrams show a study on how to calculate the amount of needed terrace determined by the needed rooftop area for collecting rainwater. I used the results such as the needed rainwater collection area and the building volume for the next step in my design process. Mainly the needed area was important. The rainwater need is restricting the height of the building to 4 stories and creates a very large footprint, in case you would make a (regular) rectangular building. 79

16 stories (half the footprint) Shift each household with 2.8 m 56 m x 50 m = 2800 m2
Conclusion: The conclusion was that I had to make an overhang, terraces or balconies to gain more height and on the same time limit the footprint of the tower. I finally made a formula to determine the overhang/ terrace depth on each level, according to the footprint of the building and the amount of area needed for collecting rainwater. 80

Combining archetypes I used the results of the performance tests in “Nature Maker” for my final design. I made two models based on a combination of the three best performing archetypes, one mountain shaped model and one valley shaped model both composed with terraced like compo- 1347 nents, like the “terraced 3”archetype which performed best during the archetype study. Both models are finally orientated to the sun 4.71 for maximum sunlight exposure

After testing these two models in the “Nature Maker” I compared them not only on sunlight and rainwater performance, but also on architectural performance. Both were doing very good on sunlight and rainwater performance. Finally the “Valley shaped was chosen and further optimized. This will be explained on the next page.

Reduce the overhang The valley design has now lots of dark unpleasant space underneath the terraces. In order to fix this problem, the valley shape has to become more steep, which means less terrace space. 4m
64 m2 per household
2m
Tested performance: 32 m2 per household
Sunlight: 2665 hrs/day Rainwater: 10.94 m3/day Sunlight hours:
Finally I chose the “Valley” design because the “Mountain” design has a very large (dark) shaded and secluded space inside. This would be a very unpleasant space to be. Also the Valley design has this problem, but is far less disturbing because its more exposed towards the public space and less secluded. To reduce the (waste) space underneath the overhang furthermore, I made the valley more steep by reducing (halve) the depth of the terraces. The space underneath the overhang is now acceptable and can be used for rooting, storage and maybe even retail or parking. The Fermentation plants will be placed underneath the terraces. Due to safety legislation the gas may have to be stored elsewhere, outside the building. 83
Total roof surface: 5200 m2 Exposed surface: 4967 m2 >6: 67 voxels 4-6: 162 voxels 2-3: 76 voxels <2: 20 voxels
Final building configuration Valley tower (Less terrace): The last testing of the final design in “Nature Maker” showed less sunlight performace and less rainwater collection than the previous version of the design, which is quiet obvious, because the amount of terrace surface nearly halved. This is however no real problem. The Reeds used in the reed filters need full to 50% sun. The final results show that 162 of 325 exposed voxels gain 4-6 hours of sunlight a day, which is roughly 50%. Another 67 voxels (20%) gain more than 6 hours a day. Since all the reeds are positioned on the edge of each terrace they will catch enough sunlight. The Tower collects furthermore twice as mush rainwater as the minimum requirements. 84
8. Reed filter tower Design
Overall Section
87
88
Section (1:50) Each of the terraces has a width/depth of 3.6 metres with a small overhang of 1.6 metres. The soil depth of the reed-beds and other elements within the reed-bed filter system is 1.2 metres. The reed-beds are placed on the edge of the terraces because they need lots of sunlight. Showering in the reeds: The shower is positioned next to the reed-beds with a large window that allows a nice view on the reeds while showering. On the same time these reeds also provide privacy and purify the water you using while showering.
89
90
Shadow - Sun & Privacy - View Tall Spike Rush Height 1- 2 m Full Sun - 50% shade
Variegated Striped Rush Height: 1m Full Sun - 50% shade
View & Sun
Raised sun platform: One side of the terrace is raised with 0.8 metres, which allows people to have a better view on the surrounding urban area and other terraces. This also allows the sun to enter the platform for sunbathing. Different reeds are used for this part of the terrace. The “Variegated Striped Rush” is used because of his limited height, which is needed to allow view and sun. 91
Privacy & Shadow
Shadow > Less evapoartion > Against algua growth Privacy & Shadow:
On the other side of terrace, next to the pond other reed species are used, the “Tall Spike Rush”, which has a height of 1-2 metres. This type of reeds is slightly higher and thereby provides shadow and privacy. Shadow is needed for the pond to prevent algae growth and limit evaporation. 92
Floorplan (1:100) Bed room 1
The reed-beds are placed along the edge of the terraces, to make sure all the reed-beds will gain enough sunlight. As stated before, two different reeds are used. The highest reeds are used near the pond. The lower reeds are used around the raised platform.
Bed room 2 S
Bath room
The bathroom and kitchen are situated next to the reed-bed system, so all waterusing functions are clustered near the pond, were all the purified water is stored. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;puralyticsâ&#x20AC;?system with water tank is placed in the bathroom.

Water-cycle in the building The water system is connected vertically. Because of fluctuation in water-use and rainfall it could be useful to connect the water systems of all households to each other. This could be done horizontally by a simple piping system. The Rainwater collected on the terraces of upper apartments flows down to the underlying apartments pond. Special drainage floor elements (GEP) collect the rainwater. The purified outflow water of the reed-bed filters flows to the underlying pond, were it is stored for later (re)use.

Separate (closed) watercycle for shower?
The Shower takes 50% of daily water-use Problem: Legislation says that purified greywater may not be used for drinking or body hygiene, although some domestic purification filtersystems can achieve the right water quality Shower cycle: The Greywater from the shower is less pollutant then Greywater from the sink, If the shower-water could be purified and then fully re-used again for showering it will reduce the need of drinking water (Quality I) by 51.4 liters per person a day = 80 % The remaining 20% of drinking water need is 13.5 Liters/p.p./day which can be covered with rainwater, which need less treatment to purify into drinking-water. Heat exchangers: The average wastewater temperature is 23 C, For the shower this would be even more. With efficiency of almost 90% you can regain a lot of energy back.
