Due to global climate change and resource shortage, energy efficiency and resource recycling received extensive attention. China has pushed forward the development of green building as national development strategy. Bathing water consumes both water and energy a lot. Varieties of studies have been carried out on the recycling of waste bathing water leading to numbers of technologies and theoretical researches. But current studies are restricted to the transformation of independent bath units, lacking of recycling on overall structure of the buildings and the analysis on inherent potential. This paper takes both energy and water reuse into consideration, providing a comprehensive application by the settlement using the waste water from bath for greening irrigation and warming-up the inlet bathing water. Predictions are made on energy saving efficiency in different seasons (26.1%, 29.2%, 28.6%) and irrigation ability per capita (97m2) of the comprehensive application.
Keywords:Water saving; Energy efficiency; Recycling system; Building renovation; Green building.
