With droughts and water shortages expected to
affect half of the world in the next two decades,
water recycling, or reclamation, technology is
becoming more widespread

3.  In the United States, states more affected
by drought, such as California, are directing
resources to funding recycled water
technology, the cost of which is steadily
decreasing. There are several different
techniques for water recycling, depending
on the source of the water and its ultimate
use. For instance, a new machine can take
untreated feces and convert it to drinking
water with an additional output of
electricity and some ash.

4.  Whatever its source, recycled drinking
water can be as clean, and sometimes
even cleaner, than tap water in a
developed country.
Despite its safety, the largest hurdle for
recycled drinking water to overcome is
psychological: many people hesitate to
drink water that was once full of sewage.
