NEWater is treated used water that has undergone stringent purification and treatment process using advanced dual-membrane (microfiltration and reverse osmosis) and ultraviolet technologies.

Since Feb 2003, NEWater has been supplied to wafer fabrication plants at Woodlands and Tampines/Pasir Ris and other industries for non-potable use. [ Non-potable means not for drinking purposes.

Starting in Sep 2002, NEWater is being mixed and blended with raw water in the reservoirs before undergoing conventional treatment at the waterworks for supply to the public for potable use. PUB has introduced 3 mgd of NEWater (about 1% of total daily water consumption) into our raw water reservoirs. The amount will be increased progressively to about 2.5% of total daily water consumption by 2011.
