Energy Minister Reza Ardakanian says the need to recycle and reuse wastewater is crucial to deal with the water crisis spreading rapidly across the provinces.
"The government has a clear policy to tackle the water shortage," Ardakanian said, adding that one effective approach is to stop tapping into the dwindling underground water tables and build as many wastewater treatment plants as possible to recycle not only industrial but also household wastewater.
Although water resources are finite and demand is growing, wastewater is a precious infinite resource.
