In recent years, humans have begun to use advanced treated wastewater to supplement a city's drinking water supply, known as potable reuse. This practice qualifies as a drinking water revolution, providing a sustainable solution to water scarcity. The Water Recycling Revolution tracks the story of this development, examining the pros and cons and exploring its future potential. The book answers pressing questions such as how to get people to overcome the \"Yuck Factor\" and appreciate recycled water, how to address pharmaceuticals and personal care products flushed down the drain, and the implications for climate change. It delves into the history of major water recycling projects from California to Virginia, each with a unique story of what led them to develop potable reuse and the challenges they had to overcome. Additionally, it addresses pathogens, contaminants of emerging concern, achieving acceptable risk, onsite and decentralized reuse systems, and direct potable reuse. Recycling wastewater can make for a bright future in the fight against climate change, and this book is a valuable resource to convince readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 450g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 147 x 223 x 24 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781538160411\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William M.
