A wastewater tank arrangement for an aircraft, including a wastewater tank and a drain pipe having a first end and an opposite second end, the drain pipe fastened with its first end to the wastewater tank and having a second end for connection to a service panel in the aircraft structure. Providing a wastewater tank arrangement can effectively compensate tolerances between the wastewater tank and the service panel, and can effectively compensate installation and manufacturing tolerances during the course of the initial installation, in that the wastewater tank arrangement has a tolerance compensation device configured to connect the second end of the drain pipe to the service panel and compensate tolerances between the second end of the drain pipe and the service panel.

A combined toilet grey water system for passenger transportation vehicles such as aircrafts includes a toilet bowl for receiving waste water and a basin for receiving grey water. Moreover, the system includes a flushing line and a flushing valve with an inlet and an outlet. The outlet of the flushing valve is connectable to a vacuum waste water system. The inlet of the flushing valve is connected via the flushing line to the toilet bowl. Therein, the basin is connected to the flushing line in such a way that the basin is connectable to the vacuum waste water system.

Water represents an important resource in an aircraft. In modern aircraft, sufficient water reserves are carried along in designated tanks that are regularly refilled by ground personnel. One embodiment relates to a water treatment system for aircraft that may make it possible to treat a gray water/black water mixture accumulated on board of an aircraft during its operation in sufficient quantity and quality for use in a downstream reformer. This means that the water circuit within the aircraft is closed and costly water tanks are eliminated.
