Tennessee Technological University Tennessee Tech is a public research university in Cookeville Tennessee United States. It was formerly known as Tennessee Polytechnic Institute 1915-1965 and before that as University of Dixie 1909-1915 the name under which it was founded as a private institution. Affiliated with the Tennessee Board of Regents the university is governed by a board of trustees. It is classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities - High research activity". Tennessee Tech places special emphasis on undergraduate education in fields related to engineering technology and computer science although degrees in education liberal arts agriculture nursing and other fields of study can be pursued as well. Additionally there are graduate offerings in engineering education business and the liberal arts. After the City of Flint Michigan's water treatment disaster and previous incidents in the District of Columbia and elsewhere the issues related to municipal water supplies reuse reclamation and safety are recognized as being of enduring interest. Works such as this thesis provide insights into the state of knowledge the state of practice and perhaps the state of the art in this field in the last third of the Twentieth Century. Water reclamation also called wastewater reuse is the process of converting wastewater into water that can be reused for other purposes. Reuse may include irrigation of gardens and agricultural fields or replenishing surface water and groundwater i.e. groundwater recharge. Reused water may also be directed toward fulfilling certain needs in residences e.g. toilet flushing businesses and industry and could even be treated to reach drinking water standards. This last option is called either "direct potable reuse" or "indirect potable" reuse depending on the approach used. Reclaiming water for reuse applications instead of using freshwater supplies can be a water-saving measure. When used water is eventually discharged back into natural water sources it can still have benefits to ecosystems improving streamflow nourishing plant life and recharging aquifers as part of the natural water cycle. Wastewater reuse is a long-established practice used for irrigation especially in arid countries. Reusing wastewater as part of sustainable water management allows water to remain as an alternative water source for human activities. This can reduce scarcity and alleviate pressures on groundwater and other natural water bodies. Another potentially positive aspect is the nutrient content in the wastewater which might reduce the need of other fertilizers. William Bradley Willard, Jr. hardcover
