== Introduction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;amp;quot;Zero Waste Building&amp;amp;quot; or &amp;amp;quot;ZWB&amp;amp;quot; is my idea to make buildings better. Briefly the idea focuses on making use of almost all wastes coming out of a building.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
N.B:This may be suitable for outskirt areas more than cities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Wastes ? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wastes from buildings can be summarized into main 3 types:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1- Grey water: used water coming from bathtubs,basins,lavatories,kitchen sinks...etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2- Black water: used water coming from toilets &amp;amp;amp; urinals (AKA sewer)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3- Garbage: plastic, paper, tin, .....etc&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Solution ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1- Grey water should be filtered and stored in reservoirs near the building to be used to irrigate surrounding fields.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2- Black water should be well filtered from all poisonous substances, treated ,stored to be used as organic Fertilizer to fertilize surrounding fields.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3- Garbage should be disposed in special rooms where it can be collected and pressed into cubic blocks to be sold afterwards to recycling companies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Advantages ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- saving expenses and energy whether for users or responsible entities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- profit for user by selling their garbage blocks .&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
- many other advantages other than saving the environment that certainly got on your minds, lets just leave everyone figure out how to make the most of it .&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
