   Can recycled water be reused?

   • Water that has already been used can be treated and reused for a variety of purposes—for example, for drinking, watering plants, or firefighting. Communities are using recycled water to better prepare for local climate change impacts, such as water shortages and floods. For example, recycled water can be a steady source of water during droughts.

   What is the difference between water reuse and water recycling?

   • Water reuse generally refers to the beneficial use of reclaimed water. Oftentimes, reclaimed water is used for irrigation purposes, but in some locations the treatment of reclaimed water produces better-quality water that can be used as potable water. Water recycling means treating water and returning it back into the same process.
