This is one of the easiest applications using bioremediation. I have done several with just grey water coming out of toilets (bathing area), wash basins and laundromats. 

Ideally it is better to have black (sewage) water mixed with the grey.

I agree.  There is no justification from a health risk perspective, or treatment cost perspective, for segregating greywater from blackwater for the purpose of water reclamation and reuse.  The same technologies are used for both mixed wastewater and greywater, including the need for disinfection.

Excellent observation sir. The Bioremediation technology these days is quite remarkable. We have had more than 2500 cleanup projects over the last 16 years using Dr Oppenheimers Archaea microbes which he discovered back in the 1940,s. Not a single call back to date.  Still trying to get the info to India. The Political walls are very tall. The peoples needs are great. ( for those who are not aware. The black water has organic materials that can be consumed by the microbes and allows them to accelerate their activity level. In addition when Rna microbes reduce the organic material into their elemental state the water is tested and is declared potable. If so desired the electrons broken loose from the compound covalent bonds can be collected and used as electricity.  No sense letting anything go to waste. (biosolids make great compost materials).
