Conserving water when out remote

This topic must come up now and then being a critical part of traveling remote in Australia. We have adequate water tanks in the camper and a separate water tank under the car but on our last camp I got to wondering how to conserve water even more without too much inconvenience.

I noticed that we have a bucket under the sink in the camper to catch the dish water so not to have muddy feet where we are preparing a meal. This bucket of grey water is then thrown out on a nearby lucky shrub. Could it be possible to reuse this water. Not as it is but say by distilling it into pure clean drinkable water.

The question is has anyone tried to distill water while camping. Is it worth it - or does it just take too long and the equipment required take up too much room when out remote camping. (I know every item needs to be carefully judged as 'do we really need to take that')

Or is there another way to turn the grey water into useable water when remote traveling.

Cheers
