That website is a very good place to pick up a link to all sorts of things. For instance I found out thet the Tetra drinks cartons and many similar can be recycled with the right machinery, some people get as much as 70% recovery. It always seems wrong to me that there are large quantities of water carried about in products, in the case of orange juice it is made by diluting orange juice concentrate, why can't we do that ourselves?

They sell water in big bottles seperately.
If people can add water to other things according to instructions eg Campbells soups, they can dilute the orange juices the same as is done with squash drinks.

But you will need water to rehydrate the dehydrated watew. The space station workers are using recycled water and why not if it is done properly.
