To meet the needs of the greater Tucson metropolitan area, Tucson Water is exploring potable reuse as a means to diversify and expand their water portfolio. To this end, a six-month pilot test of an innovative and sustainable potable reuse treatment scheme was conducted under a tailored collaboration project between CH2M, Tucson Water, and University of Arizona.  This project was funded by the WateReuse Research Foundation (WRRF-13-09).  This Brown Bag Seminar will present an overview of the treatment scheme, as well as the major results and conclusions from the pilot study.
