Water Reuse in Europe - JRC
Science and Policy Report
An EU regulatory instrument for water
reuse is planned to be developed by
2015, in order to find innovative
solutions to the challenges of ensuring
water supply for urban, industrial and
agriculture use. Despite the water
reuse applications already developed

This JRC Science and Policy Report

on water reuse, evaluates existing
water reuse standards in EU Member
