Reuse of wastewater

Today, preserving water resources is understood to be essential to solving human, environmental and economical needs. Water is vital to human life, yet close to two-thirds of the planet’s population lacks suffi cient resources.

Water supplies are indispensable to preserving the planet’s natural balance, but in recent years the warning signs have multiplied. Even in temperate climates, shortages are regularly observed. By consequence, water has become an important economic issue. Still, water is a renewable resource. And in the same way that we are searching for means to reuse raw materials, we should be recycling water for use in agriculture (irrigation), industry and urban settings (supplying fountains, street cleaning, etc.). Reuse can help to avoid waste while preserving available resources, all at a lower cost. Progressively, numerous countries are putting regulations into place that offer a framework for developing reuse projects.
