23 WATER RECLAMATION Various Examples Of This Being Done In SA With Variations Around Blending, Recharge, And Use. Social Perceptions And Acceptance Are Critical But Trust In Institutions To Deliver 100% Assurance Of Quality Is Vital. Hence, Wastewater Treatment Plants Need To Be Managed Well And To Standard.
