Recycling Wastewater with Membrane Technology and The Case of Singapore

Recycling Wastewater with Membrane Technology and The Case of Singapore

In this review study, as an alternative to rapidly depleting water resources as a result of increased use of water over the world, it has been discussed how wastewater can be treated and reused by membrane technology and reuse of wastewater as drinking water by using NEWater application in Singapore.
