Jenfelder au Hamburg

Located on the grounds of the former Lettow-Vorbeck military barracks in the Hamburg-Jenfeld district, the Jenfelder Au project focuses on the construction of 835 households that utilize the Hamburg Water Cycle ©: a closed-loop system for wastewater management.
The system includes infiltration basins for rainwater, a setup for testing two methods of greywater collection and treatment, and a separate vacuum system for the collection of blackwater with nutrient and biogas recovery. This project is part of the IBA (International Building Exhibition) Hamburg.
