Nick; it seems man will do anything to make a profit instead of allowing nature to clean itself. The solution to any problem is to stop doing what causes that problem. follow natures rules and problem solved. There is actually no scarcity of fresh water. Just persons  adding chlorine to centralized waste collection system when nature has the proper microbes for this billion year old task. Taking sea salts out for fertilizers is ok. But hundreds of millions of gallons WILL mess up the hydrological cycle.

Guy, there is certainly regional water scarcity. This is apparent is coastal communities and island nations without a regenerative water supply.  Droughts, which are typically cyclical cause regional water scarcity as well. There is also water scarcity due to the effects of regional water contamination. Yes, adding chlorine to a centralized waste collection system prior to discharge alters surface water ecosystems and should not be done. UV is a better choice for these applications.
