Water reuse infrastructure is essential for municipalities and industry facing growing water demands because it provides a reliable, locally controlled water supply that helps reduce dependence on limited freshwater sources and imported water, especially during droughts or climate-driven shortages. By treating and recycling water, communities and businesses can lower operational costs, improve water quality, reduce environmental impacts, and support sustainable economic growth, while also enhancing resilience against future water scarcity and supporting ecosystem restoration.

Water Reuse
Water is life’s matter and matrix mother and medium. There is no life without water — Albert Szent-Gyorgyi (1893-1986)
The Role of Ozone in Water Reuse
Upstream of the tertiary filtration process in water reuse, ozone can oxidize heavy metals, increase dissolved oxygen to promote biological filtration, and break down complex organic compounds into more biodegradable forms.
Downstream of tertiary filtration, ozone or advanced oxidation processes provide effective disinfection by reducing microbial pathogens, parasites, organic contaminants, and constituents of emerging concern.
