Water Re-use in America
It has been reported that it takes 1,200 gallons of water per capita per day to operate the
U.S. economy but worldwide, the human population only consumes less then 1 gallon of water per capita per day.
It is clear from this fact that water reuse offers tremendous opportunity to reduce our impacts on water resources because theoretically all but the 1 gallon per capita per day can be readily reused. Edward Clerico, President of Alliance Environmental, Inc. gave testimony to the Federal Government Subcommittee on Energy and Environment on Water Re-use.
