How can we create a mycofilter for greywater at home?

Filtrino is a biological technology tool designed for filtering greywater using fungal mycelium, allowing it to be safely reused for watering plants. In light of decreasing rainfall and the increasing importance of water conservation due to climate change, this kit encourages the recycling of greywater for essential purposes like watering household plants.

The kit includes a pack of mycelium, a plexiglass tube, coffee powder, and hemp. Mycofiltration, as a cost-effective solution, enables users to grow the tool at home. With the components provided in the kit, multiple filters can be created, as the living organism (mycelium) can proliferate in the cultivation environment.

To use the kit, the user unpacks the mycelium, grinds it, and places it in the plexiglass tube. The mycelium is then left to grow for about a week. After this period, the user can create their filtration system, where greywater passes through the mycofilter, effectively removing impurities before being used to water plants.
