Abstract (en)
It is described an apparatus 10 connectable, as one in-series unit, on one side to a washing machine 11, and on the other side to the water supply system 4a and the power mains 1a, as well as to the drain 7a. While flowing through said apparatus the water from the washing machine comes in contact with a set of sensors suitable to determine, by detecting some of its own characteristics, whether it must be discharged or it has a purity sufficient for its recovery, in which case it is conveyed towards a storage tank 15 wherefrom it may be taken for a following washing cycle. If the water level inside the tank is higher than a predetermined maximum value, the water coming from the washing machine is anyhow forwarded to the drain, while if said level is lower than a predetermined minimum value, the washing machine is supplied with water coming from the water supply system instead of the tank. <IMAGE>
