Still in areas where is long availability, but where the excessive demand is not attended, conflicts occur and restrictions of use, that can affect the economic development and life quality.
There is a huge potential for re-use of water in Brazil. The agricultural use of treated efluents, in urban settlements, especially for not drinkable uses, for industrial uses and for refill of artificial aqüíferos, was constituted in a powerful tool to re-establish the equilibrium between the offering and the demand, in many regions of Brazil. Nevertheless, it is necessary to institutionalize, to regulate and to promote the re-use of water in Brazil, being keeping in mind that the practice be developed according to technical rules, that be economically feasible, socially acepted and safe, em terms of environmental protection, as well as in which refers to the protection of high-risk groups.
Taking em account these factors, AIDIS – Inter-american Association of Environmental and Sanitary Engineering, in association with "União Cultural Brazil United States", is organizing an International Seminar on Re-use of the Water, to be carried out in November 3rd and 4th, 2008, in São Paulo, Brazil.
