Gust’eaux is a restaurant in Kuurne, Belgium, that isn’t connected to the city sewage. The solution to that problem came in a five-step purification system for their toilet water. Now, the restaurant has started serving clear, tasteless, and odorless water. You wouldn’t even know that it was from a toilet! The recycled water gets to be used in different ways, from ice cubes to service water, as Oddee detailed:
The restaurant offers the water to costumers in many forms, and it’s free! You can have it by its self, as ice cubes and even in coffee. It’s also occasionally used for brewing beer. According to Sudinfo, the same water system is used to provide water in isolated communities, but the experience is unheard of in Europe, so this is new for them. Their process was approved by Vlakwa, the Flemish center for knowledge on water, and was proven that it was healthier than most tap water.
