Water Reuse Poised for Strong Growth in Brasil

Water Recyclingin Brazil is Set to Surge, Currently Only 0.1% of Water is Produced by Reusing

Water reuse in Brazil is poised for "strong growth" in response to a tightening water crisis according to the country's largest water company.

In São Paulo, water reuse is close to 2% and could increase to 25% in a decade, according to president of São Paulo water utility Companhia de Saneamento Básico do Estado de São Paulo (Sabesp) Gesner de Oliveira.

According to Sabesp's research and development officer Américo Sampaio, a lack of tax incentives for water reuse and the slow modernization of public water systems have added to delays in water reuse in Brazil.
