Industrial Recycling and Reuse
Innovative water management for the residential area “Am Aubuckel”


Interdisciplinary research project together with GBG – Mannheimer Wohnungsbaugesellschaft mbH and Technical University of Darmstadt to convert two apartment blocks into a ‘sponge city’ project with 74 residential units. The aim is to make efficient use of local water flows, including innovative rainwater management and maximum recycling of grey water for reuse. Excess service water is to supply the green areas and the old trees in the residential complex via an integrated irrigation system.
