많은 지역사회의 심각한 물부족 문제에 대처하기 위한 해결책으로 GE의 새로운 백서(white paper)인 ‘물재사용 및 물재활용’ 방식이 고려되고 있으며, 이는 정부의 정책 선정에 쉽게 정보를 찾을 수 있도록 돕는 역할을 한다.

 

백서는 교육 및 봉사활동, 장벽 제거, 인센티브 및 의무 규정 등 정부의 물재활용 및 물재이용 확장을 위한 4가지 주요 정책을 포함하고 있다.

 

 

 

In light of many communities turning toward water reuse and recycling as a solution to combat acute water scarcity issues, GE today released a new white paper, "Addressing Water Scarcity through Recycling and Reuse" to help governments find readily accessible information on policy options.

 

The white paper highlights four major water reuse policy options for governments to consider as they look for ways to expand water recycling and reuse: education and outreach, removing barriers, incentives, and mandates and regulations. "The goal of our new white paper is to help them think through their options for water recycling and reuse while providing a menu of policy options and concrete examples of how these policies are being applied around the world," said Heiner Markhoff, president and CEO, water and process technologies for GE Power & Water.
