The symposium was devoted to the renovation and reuse of wastewaters from municipal, industrial, and agricultural sources. The proceedings are divided into eleven chapters addressing key concerns that must be satisfied prior to successful implementation of water reuse. Economics, regulatory and legal constraints, health effects, water quality needs, planning, and engineering, among other factors, are covered for wastewater sources and water users. The proceedings demonstrate that significant global interest exists in wastewater reuse, that recycling concepts are being applied to a broad range of functions, that application of water reuse may be highly situation-dependent, and that reuse applications are important solutions for the conservation of water. Volume 1 focuses on: (1) needs and funding alternatives for water reuse in the future; (2) municipal wastewater reclimation and reuse and water supply augmentation; (3) water reuse around the world; and (4) industiral recycling and reuse.
