Introduction
With economic development, climate change and increases in population and rapid urbanization, water has
become a strategic resource especially in arid and semi-arid regions. Water shortages are considered as one
of the most serious threats to sustainable development of society. To address these shortages, reclaimed
water is increasingly being used to satisfy water demands and this strategy has proven useful in increasing
the reliability of long-term water supplies in many water-scarce areas.
The role of water reuse is growing for urban areas in many countries including landscape irrigation,
industrial uses, toilet and urinal flushing, firefighting and fire suppression, street cleaning, environmental
and recreational uses (ornamental water features, water bodies’ replenishment, etc.) and vehicle washing.
These centralized water reuse systems have been developed to the degree that they are now considered as
an effective component of urban water management and are used in many cities and countries.
The essential components of a reclaimed water treatment system include water sources, wastewater
collection systems (sewers and pumping stations), a wastewater treatment facility, a reclaimed water
distribution system, reclaimed water storage, a water quality monitoring system and operation and
maintenance provided by experienced and certified operators. The variable nature and diversity in source
water present a challenge to ensuring water safety and reliability in each system component. A further
complication to distributing the reclaimed water is that different water reuse applications can have different
levels of water quality, which would consider more complex water use patterns and system models.
This document provides design principles for centralized water reuse systems in urban areas. It considers
and addresses the critical issues and factors in the design of the different system components and is intended
to assist water engineers, authorities, decision-makers and stakeholders in considering feasible and cost-
effective approaches for safe and reliable fit-for-purpose water reuse. For details on the management
of a centralized water reuse system, see ISO 20760-2. Additionally, for details on the design principles of
decentralized or onsite water reuse systems in urban areas, see ISO 23056.

5 Planning and design of a centralized water reuse system
5.1 General
Planning is fundamental to ensure the effectiveness of a centralized water reuse system. When a reclaimed
water master plan is being developed, the following aspects should be considered and carefully defined:
— planning principles and targets, including human health and environment protection;
— planning scope and project timeline;
— water reclamation facility construction, operation and maintenance and potential operational challenges;
— reclaimed water production, storage, transmission and distribution system reliability and redundancy;
— reclaimed water applications and related water quality and quantity;
— the urban area to which reclaimed water will be supplied;
— the scale and layout of the system and links/compliance with local or regional water planning;
— economic feasibility and the availability of funding, including tariff strategies and concession agreements;
— stakeholder consultation, open meetings and dialogues;
— customer surveys to determine industrial and domestic demands, value of the reclaimed water
(willingness to pay), economic viability and sustainability;
— environmental-conscious design and minimization of environmental impacts;
— public comment and social acceptance.
The reclaimed water master plan should be reviewed periodically (by competent authorities) and updated
and refined as new information becomes available. For example, water authorities can work together
with internal and external stakeholders, including the potential reclaimed water end users and the public,
[10][11]
throughout the process to ensure that issues and concerns are understood and considered.
5.2 Estimation of water demand
5.2.1 General
In the planning stage, the needs of each water reuse application should be assessed, including the reclaimed
water quantity and quality. Various methods can be applied to estimate current demands and to analyse end-
use applications. Additionally, when transitioning from standard drinking water or wastewater systems to
a water reuse system, the sizing of the potable drinking water infrastructure should be strictly evaluated to
ensure water quality or water age factors are still intact (i.e. avoiding oversized servicing, increased water
age and decreased disinfectant residuals).
5.2.2 Quantity of reclaimed water
When determining the quantity of reclaimed water that is available for reuse, several factors should be
considered, including:
a) the quantity and quality characteristics of wastewater discharged to sewer from the various sources
(e.g. types of industrial, commercial and institutional discharges, number of houses, infiltration or
inflow, surface runoff, combined or separate sewers);
b) the topography of the service area and location of existing wastewater treatment facilities;
c) diurnal and seasonal dynamics of collected and treated wastewater quantity;
d) the volume of reclaimed water that could be available after treatment and storage.
5.2.3 Review of potential reclaimed water end users and uses
An assessment should be carried out to identify potential users of reclaimed water, their locations and their
water quantity and quality considerations, particularly those users with high quantity or quality needs, or
both, and cost-effective applications. Special attention should be paid to potential drivers and benefits for
the use of reclaimed water, in particular for the large end users.
5.3 Site conditions
When selecting the site for the centralized water reuse system, the following criteria should be considered:
a) location and proximity of current and projected future reclaimed water demands and users;
b) availability of land, routes and rights-of-way space for the necessary treatment, storage, transmission
and distribution systems and pumping facilities;
c) scoping assessment of the land area;
d) land use conflicts and local water reuse policies;
e) proximity (location and quantity of wastewater sources);
f) hydraulic and civil construction factors;
g) opportunities for partnership with other agencies;
h) environmental framework such as climate, geography and topography;
i) water resources such as surface water or groundwater;
j) level of social acceptance of water reuse.
A centralized water reuse system may have two configurations:
— adding advanced treatment to an existing centralized wastewater treatment facility;
— constructing a new centralized reclamation facility for additional wastewater treatment or polishing, or
both, and production of reclaimed water.
It can be difficult to find a site where all site conditions are optimal, and adjustments can be considered
to compensate for site deficiencies. Planning should consider both the current and future demand for
all potential reclaimed water uses. The growth in demand can be different for the various users being
considered. A market assessment should be carried out, particularly in communities with established
infrastructure, to determine the needs for reclaimed water. Other issues that should also be considered
include the impact of potential land-use zoning changes and the possibility of future land development.
5.4 System components
The following five essential water reclamation components should be considered when planning a
centralized water reuse system:
a) source water (quality and quantity);
b) treatment;
c) reclaimed water storage;
d) reclaimed water distribution;
e) monitoring.
The storage systems can be located before or after the main transmission pipeline, or both, depending on
the distribution system hydraulic design and should equalize reclaimed water quantity and pressures.
5.5 Possible models of the system
5.5.1 General
There are four generic models of a centralized water reuse system, namely single application, multiple
applications, environmental storage and reuse applications, and cascading uses, ranging from simple to
more complicated water-use patterns considered in this document.
5.5.2 Model I — Single application
Model I produces reclaimed water for only one type of water reuse quality application. This model is relatively
simple (Figure 1). Secondary treated wastewater (TWW) is typically used as source water in a centralized
water reuse system. In some cases, when water reclamation is integrated in the wastewater treatment with
the intended purpose of water reuse, untreated wastewater from sewer systems is considered as source
water (see detailed descriptions in 6.1). A typical example of Model I is given in Figure 1.
NOTE Additional treatment is optional and not compulsory, which depends on the reclaimed water quality and use.
Figure 1 — Typical example of Model I for single application
Model I should be considered when
a) reclaimed water is being provided to a single end user, such as one industrial plant or an individual
building, or
b) reclaimed water is being provided to a single reclaimed water use or standard for a single end user or
multiple similar end users, such as a regional or community-based residential area where the quality of
the reclaimed water should meet all the water reuse applications.
Using accepted design principles, the treatment technology or combination of technologies should be
selected to achieve the reclaimed water quality targets for the specific uses and the overall reclaimed water
system performance, see ISO 20761, ISO 20468-1 and Reference [12].
5.5.3 Model II — Multiple applications
Model II produces multiple reclaimed water streams, each with a different water quality criterion. This
model is more complex in design and operation and the treatment is organized into a hierarchical structure.
A typical example of Model II is given in Figure 2.
Figure 2 — Typical example of Model II for multiple applications
Model II should be used when reclaimed water is supplied to multiple end uses with different water
requirements, such as in an industrial park with several industries, or a region with industrial and domestic
applications for reclaimed water.
The following issues should be considered when selecting a reclaimed water treatment technology or
technology combinations:
a) treatment Unit 1 is designed to satisfy the water quality and quantity specialities for the large and high
priority users;
b) small users with higher quality demands can connect to the main treatment unit (Unit 1) and either
provide an additional treatment unit before distribution or at the point-of-use (POU). The control and
responsibility of an end user at the utility site would demand a very detailed contract and access to the
site to ensure quality is maintained to their needs. There are two scenarios that could be applied:
— the reclaimed water utility contracts with the end user for a system with a specified quantity and
quality and the utility controls the additional treatment;
— the small user contracts for the quantity that is being provided and builds the enhanced treatment at
its own site where the user has control and responsibility of the system construction and operation;
c) small users with quality demands that are generally lower than the quality of the produced reclaimed
water can connect directly to the main treatment unit (Unit 1) without consideration for further
treatment.
The minimum water quality should be guaranteed by the service provider (operator). The water quality
demands for specific users could be achieved using additional treatment (e.g. Units 2 and 3).
5.5.4 Model III — Environmental storage and reuse applications
Model III should be considered when bodies of water such as natural or artificial wetlands, ponds, lakes, rivers
and streams are located in close proximity to the treatment system and can be used as storage reservoirs or
treatment units, or both, in which reclaimed water can undergo further purification. Storage aims to provide
buffer capacity or environmental enhancement, or both, to achieve high level of environmental benefits and
to avoid adverse impacts on end users. On-site storage and treatment could be optional as a function of end-
user needs. A typical example of Model III is given in Figure 3.
Figure 3 — Typical example of Model III for environmental storage and reuse applications
5.5.5 Model IV — Cascading reclaimed water uses
Model IV provides a cascading system for reclaimed water, with sequential or cascading use of reclaimed
water for different reuse applications. For instance, when the reclaimed water is applied for industrial
uses, wastewater can be reclaimed from that same industrial process and applied to subsequent reuse
applications, such as cleaning, or ornamental landscape irrigation, without additional specific water quality
needs. If a higher water quality is demanded for the subsequent reuse applications, additional treatment can
be provided, or the reuse water can be mixed with higher quality water to attain the desired water quality
for the reuse application. A typical example of Model IV is given in Figure 4.
Figure 4 — Typical example of Model IV for cascading use
5.6 Basic principles
Basic principles of safety, reliability, stability and economic viability should be incorporated in all applicable
clauses when designing a centralized water reuse system.
6 Source water considerations
6.1 Type of source water
6.1.1 General
The quality of the source water should not have any negative impacts on the subsequent reuse applications
as well as on human health and the environment.
Water reclamation facility sources can include either untreated wastewater from sewer systems or TWW
from wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), with the treatment technology and level of treatment based
on the source of water and the reclaimed water quality needs, and with consideration given to principles of
safety, reliability, stability, economic viability and protection of the environment and public health.
In most circumstances, it is expected that secondary TWW will be used as source water in a centralized water
reuse system. The quality of the secondary TWW is typically established. Alternatively, water reclamation
can be directly integrated into a WWTP with intended purpose for water reuse. In this integrated system,
untreated wastewater from sewer systems is the source water as long as treatment and reliability (water
quality and quantity) meet water reuse demands.
6.1.2 Treated wastewater from a WWTP
Secondary TWW is commonly used as the source of reclaimed water in areas where centralized wastewater
treatment facilities already exist. This typically should consider the existing WWTP to either be expanded
or upgraded, or the nearby construction of a new water reclamation facility. For expansion or upgrade of
existing WWTPs, compatibility with existing treatment processes is important and several factors should
be considered, including the secondary TWW quality, space for new facilities, plant hydraulic profile,
piping modifications, operating considerations and ancillary systems. In all cases, future demand, regional
planning and land availability should be considered.
6.1.3 Untreated wastewater from sewer systems
Untreated wastewater from sewer systems is typically considered as the source water, such as for
— newly developed areas where centralized wastewater treatment facilities do not yet exist, and
— areas with limited-capacity wastewater treatment facilities such as primary treatment plants.
Untreated wastewater from sewer systems is generally available in proportion to the population of the area
covered by the collection system.
In general, untreated wastewater from sewer systems has the following characteristics:
a) higher concentrations of nutrients and organic and inorganic chemical contaminants (including
household and industrial chemicals, pharmaceuticals and personal care products and endocrine
disruptors) compared to secondary TWW;
b) high amounts of solids (e.g. grit, paper, plastic, wipes) that could clog or plug pumps, strainers and other
equipment;
c) higher load and broader range of pathogens;
d) generally collected and available at a lower elevation of the collection system.
The constituents of, and variations in, untreated wastewater quality and quantity are important for the
design of subsequent treatment, storage, distribution and application stages and should be accurately
assessed.
6.1.4 Other sources
During an emergency, unexpected event, or interruption in the source water supply, backup supplies of
water meeting the water quality specification for the reuse applications should be available to meet essential
service supply (e.g. toilet flushing). Possible backup water resources include potable water, storm water,
river or lake sources that are located in close proximity to the centralized water reuse system.
When the available sources of reclaimed water are insufficient to meet the user demand, supplementary
sources should be considered where possible. In such cases, these sources can demand additional treatment,
storage or mixing with other sources.
If potable water is to be used as a backup source or supplementary source, the potable water distribution
system should be protected from potential contamination from the reclaimed water through the use of
backflow protection devices, preferably an air gap separation.
6.2 Water quality considerations for source water
6.2.1 General
The quality and quantity of source water should meet the safety considerations for human health and
environmental safety of the reclaimed water production and supply processes. These two issues should be
addressed.
6.2.2 Appropriate source water
Reclaimed water sourced from domestic wastewater with a controlled proportion of industrial wastewater
can be considered as an appropriate raw source water for water reuse applications.
6.2.3 Inappropriate source water
Although the sources of municipal wastewater are normally expected to include a mixture of domestic,
industrial, commercial and institutional (e.g. hospital) discharges, wastewater from industries and
institutions that contains toxic chemicals or pathogens at levels that exceed the specified acceptable
levels should be excluded from consideration for reclamation and beneficial reuse, as the high content of
contaminants can negatively impact the quality of the reclaimed water. In particular, caution should be
taken when considering wastewater with a significant propor
