16 January 2007, Switzerland - This innovative plant, using water in a virtually closed system, is of major importance not only for mountainous areas but also for arid regions all over the world.
> The plant is particularly significant as it addresses a problem that is widespread in mountainous areas; in addition, reuse of treated wastewater is an issue of growing importance in arid regions worldwide.
> As well as demonstrating that wastewater can be efficiently and economically treated within a virtually closed system, the project provides an excellent example of successful cooperation between practitioners and researchers.
