NASA is touting an advancement that could make life in space more sustainable, even if it might sound kind of gross. The space agency has announced that astronauts on the International Space Station have been able to -for the first time- “recover” 98% of the water that crews bring along on their journey. #reclamation #reuse #NASA #wastewater #water https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/nasa-touts-breakthrough-in-recycling-astronaut-pee-and-sweat/ar-AA1dbC5n
@Victor I seem to recall something about Singapore and "water recycling". Pretty sure they actually have a bottled water brand of sorts that is literally reclaimed and processed wastewater (might just be reclaimed/processed grey water? Hard to say, I read about it a long time ago).
I think it was called something like smart water.
Suffice to say it seems like water recovery technology may be on the upswing - perhaps one day it might even be mainstream / widespread?
@IrelandTorin Your memory serves you right. It is called NEWater https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEWater
