Water - Demonstration Scheme on Reclaimed Water Uses in the North District

What is Reclaimed Water?

 

Reclaimed Water

Apart from those sourced from Dongjiang of Mainland China and from local yield, Reclaimed Water could be regarded as a new supplementary water source.

It is produced by the further purification/ disinfection of secondary effluent which has been sufficiently treated for acceptable discharge into the marine environment. As a result of further advanced treatments, it now becomes revitalized into a new reusable resource.

This initiative forms one of the four key components of the Total Water Management (TWM) programme being implemented by the HKSAR Government.
