新墨西哥州中南部山区的一个度假社区面临严重的水污染 短缺已经持续了好几年。在毫无结果地寻找新的水源后，这个村庄已经 决定寻求废水的间接饮用再利用，以补充地下水供应。 污水处理厂将采用膜生物反应器技术进行改造，然后进行 反渗透。废水处理厂废水将储存在蓄水池中，以提供 环境屏障，然后与现有的地下水供应混合，并在水中进行处理 采用超滤和颗粒活性炭的处理厂。过程培训是 为保护公众健康提供冗余，鼓励公众接受， 并促进监管部门的批准。监管问题具有挑战性，因为该项目是 新墨西哥州首次计划将废水间接回用于饮用水。包括6个参考文献、表格、图表。

A resort community in the mountains of south-central New Mexico has faced severe water shortages for several years. After a fruitless search for new sources of water, the village has decided to pursue indirect potable reuse of wastewater to supplement the groundwater supply. The wastewater plant will be retrofitted with membrane bioreactor technology, followed by reverse osmosis. The wastewater plant effluent will be stored in a reservoir to provide an environmental barrier, then mixed with the existing groundwater supply and treated in a water treatment plant using ultrafiltration and granular activated carbon. The process train was selected to provide redundancy for protecting public health, encourage acceptance by the public, and facilitate regulatory approval. Regulatory issues were challenging because this project is the first planned indirect reuse of wastewater for drinking water in the state of New Mexico. Includes 6 references, table, figure.
