Scaling Water Reuse: A Tipping Point for Municipal and Industrial Use Khemka, Rochi, and Eberhard, Rolfe (2025)
Water reuse is no longer a marginal consideration; it is a strategic necessity. Around the world, cities and industries are under growing pressure from water scarcity, pollution, and climate stress. The treatment and reuse of used water offers a powerful and practical response—a dependable source that enhances water security, supports economic development, and strengthens climate resilience.
This report makes a case for scaling investments in the treatment of used water to make it fit for purpose for municipal and industrial use, turning
'waste’ water into valuable 'new' water. The report sets out the business case for these investments and outlines roadmaps for governments and the private sector to achieve this transition to sustainable water use.
