Abstract

This research aims to unlock the full potential of water reuse in the United States by aligning science and technology with a sociological understanding of opportunities and barriers. The deliverables (including treatment process models, risk assessment and response tools, and case studies) are expected to provide diverse stakeholders with user-friendly materials to advance water reuse in their communities. Interim results will be available on the WateReuse Association website throughout the project.
