The paradigm for clean water agencies is changing quickly across the globe. Historically, clean water agencies were tasked with one overriding goal: protecting water quality. As vital resources have become increasingly scarce, an acknowledgment of the potential value of wastewater has occurred. Viewing wastewater as not simply something that needs to be gotten rid of, but rather as a stream of potential resources to recover has stimulated a great deal of innovation and visionary thinking in the early part of the 21st century.
