Description
During the past two decades, recycling municipal wastewater for drinking water has gone from "an option of last resort" to an increasingly common practice. The Water Recycling Revolution tracks the story of this development, examines the pros and cons, and explores the future potential of recycling wastewater for both potable and nonpotable uses.
