Potable Reuse
The quality and quantity of conventional water supplies are increasingly affected by population growth, urbanization, prolonged and severe droughts, and climate change. With an increased pressure on water systems, a diversified portfolio of water sources is required to meet future water demands, ensure public health, and provide economic and environmental sustainability. One viable approach to address existing and anticipated water shortages is to implement water reuse.

Mesa, Arizona, building water reuse pipeline in water rights deal
Facing strained water supplies and rapid population growth, the City of Mesa, Arizona, is taking action to increase its supply and maximize its use of recycled water. Mesa, located in the eastern Phoenix metropolitan area, averages 9.29 inches of rain per year. The city recently began construction of a 10.5-mile pipeline to provide the nearby […]
Reno investing in unique reuse techniques for future water supplies
Reno, Nevada, receives only 7.5 inches of rain per year, so bolstering the water supply in this arid region is a priority. With that as the aim, the City of Reno and local water system Truckee Meadows Water Authority (TMWA) joined forces on a unique indirect potable reuse project called the American Flat Advanced Purified […]
California water districts expand world’s largest potable reuse system
The world’s largest advanced water purification system for potable reuse just got even bigger, as a joint project of the Orange County Water District (OCWD) and the Orange County Sanitation District (OC San) completed an expansion earlier this year that can provide enough water for a million people. The expansion project for the Groundwater Replenishment […]
AWWA hosts Turkish delegation to advance wastewater reuse, circular economy
Thirty-four water professionals from Turkey and the World Bank explored California water recycling facilities and the Hoover Dam in Nevada last month during a study group tour led by the American Water Works Association (AWWA). The visit was organized by AWWA and the World Bank, in collaboration with the General Directorate of State Hydraulic Works […]
California farmers benefit from unique water reuse facility
A new $65 million water reuse treatment facility in Escondido, California, provides local farmers with a high-quality, lower-cost alternative to potable water. The AgX MFRO facility —the first in California to be used solely for agriculture—uses membrane filtration (MF) and reverse osmosis (RO) to produce up to 2 million gallons of water per day. The […]
