Yes, one way is to direct the used water into a gray water system. For example, it can be piped into your yard or landscaping. Be aware that if your water source is softened( has salts), that this will increase the salt in your soil.

Consumer "grey water" systems are available to reuse water from various household tasks; however, it is probably not a good idea to reuse water containing detergent.

My dishwasher is portable and drains into the sink. It would be very easy to collect the rinse water in a bucket or tub and use the water for plants or to wash off the sidewalk or driveway outside. It could also be used to wash the car or flush the toilet.

Yes--if you consistently use biodegradable and/or natural dish detergent, you can install a grey water system and safely use the water for watering plants, lawn, etc.

Recycled dishwater is called " Greywater ". You can recycle practically any water in the home for other uses except toilet water. There are several options. The most practical is to boil the water after straining it and allowing it to cool overnight. There are also water purification tablets you can put in water to clean it.

If you use an eco-friendly detergent, you can put dishwater (known as grey water) over your plants. Just siphon off the waste water and use it in a watering can.

No, I don't think you can recycle dishwasher water. Why would anyone in their right mind want to reuse dirty water that is full of food particles that they may or may not have already eaten?
