Can you elaborate a bit? Is your ibc collecting rain water?

in short no its not really worth it as you will clog your filters and go through your membranes  a lot quicker so any savings made on the water usage would be spent on replacing filters and membranes more often

Yes you can then,although the Tds from the ro waste will be higher than your tap Tds, so you may get a higher Tds  from your ro after the initial refill. By mixing the waste with the tap water in your ibc is actually a good idea if you're on a meter
