Lone Palm Sprouts Water Recapture and Recycle System
Summary
The production of edible sprouts results in approximately 335,000 gallons of water per month that is unrecoverable. A water capture system will be built and implemented to enable a sprout farm to recycle and re-use the majority of the water that presently enters the floor drain. The system will bring the water to a level of quality consistent with the Hawaii State Department of Health, Safe Drinking Water Branch standards.
