Assessment and Potential for the Development July 2009 and Use of “Marginal Waters”

Scarcity of water in semi-arid regions of the world, similar to the Orange-Senqu River Basin, has necessitated the development of strategies to optimise the use of available water resources.

Marginal water can be used to supplement intensively exploited conventional sources.
