The definition of reclaimed water, as defined by Levine and Asano is "The end product of wastewater reclamation that meets water quality requirements for biodegradable materials, suspended matter and pathogens." In more recent conventional use, the term refers to water that is not treated as highly in order to offer a way to conserve drinking water. This water is thusly given to uses such as agriculture and sundry industry uses.

Recent Advances in Reverse Osmosis have been in different countries, but have consistently produced very high quality water all the same. In Singapore, reclaimed water, also known as NEWater has become cleaner than the government issue tap water. Also, according to Bartels, the Bedok Demonstration plant, which uses RO membranes, has successfully run for the past 3 years, producing high quality wastewater all the while.

The City of Tucson already provides reclaimed water to its inhabitants, but it is only used for "applications such as irrigation, dust control, and industrial uses." These resources have been in place for more than 27 years, and deliver to over 900 locations. .
