Water Reuse: Diverse Questions in View of an Internationally Increasing Relevance
2012
In view of growing international demand for water and limited
natural water resources, the reuse of wastewater as an element
of sustainable water resource management will gain more and
more importance. Although water reuse is a well-established

irrigation, projects for reuse of treated wastewater are still a
complex task for consultants, equipment suppliers and plant operators.
In addition to the usual process-engineering issues relating
to wastewater treatment, several further constraints including
institutional, economic and socio-cultural aspects which
vary from country to country have to be taken into account. The
DWA publication series “DWA Topics” on “Treatment Steps for
Water Reuse” contains several explanations of this topic; excerpts
from this publication are included in the present article,
which was published in a modified German version in KA –
