Presenter: Carol Spruiell, Texas Conservation Alliance.
The future of wise water planning for Texas calls not only for smarter water use through conservation, but also for water recycling. There are two major ways to recycle water. One of these – filtering through created wetlands -- is already in place just minutes south of Dallas, the East Fort Wetland.
Another approach to recycling water is the use of ultra-filtration. With ultra-filtration, water is filtered through membranes with tiny pores -- a fraction of a micron in size -- that remove bacteria, viruses, and other harmful organisms.
Our new “Future Water for North Texas” program discusses the options for recycling and how this new water supply option can help us avoid building costly reservoirs.
