Freshwater represents only 2.5% of the water available on the planet.
You can access our detailed blog post about the state of our water resources worldwide here.The rapid increase in the global population, accelerated urbanization, and global warming are leading to the scarcity of these resources. The treatment of wastewater for reuse has become an accepted and reliable technical solution to address water scarcity issues worldwide. Wastewater, which was previously considered a disposal obligation, can now become a valuable resource.**The Importance of Water Recovery**In the coming decade, many countries will experience severe water scarcity, and this will become a problem for both the public and private sectors. Wastewater discharge must consider the necessary quality, public health, and safety concerns for use. The reuse of wastewater, including recycling, is an important component of both wastewater and water resource management. There are many applications for the reuse of wastewater that do not require drinking water quality. Types of wastewater reuse are classified into four main categories:Urban uses,
Industrial uses,
Agricultural uses, and
Groundwater replenishment.
The type and system of wastewater reuse are selected with possible restrictions in mind, depending on pollutant components, wastewater treatment technology, and the quality of the water obtained, as well as the remaining waste load levels.Industrial water consumption accounts for 22% of global water use. There is an opportunity for the reuse of wastewater in almost all industrial facilities. In most industries, cooling water constitutes the largest water demand within the facility. Many industrial users that use freshwater are under increasing pressure to reuse water in their facilities. Their goal is to minimize the amount of water discharged into a receiving stream or public treatment works. The use of wastewater instead of clean water not only ensures water savings but also leads to a reduction in overall operating costs for the facility.The suitability of reclaimed wastewater in the industry depends on processing and specific purposes, and different treatment methods may be necessary.The reuse of industrial water has the following advantages:Potential reduction in production costs due to the recovery of raw materials in wastewater and reduced water usage;
Heat recovery;
Potential decrease in costs related to wastewater treatment and discharge.
