Water Saving and Management

The development of the economy, the rapid growth of the global population and increasing urbanization exacerbate the world-wide water shortage crisis. There are now innovative approaches in urban water management which have the potential to provide locally adapted, water resource-efficient alternative solutions for this water scarcity problem. Promising examples include the treatment and utilization of stormwater drainage, increased drinking water productivity, advanced treatment and utilization of reclaimed water, controls to improve the leakage of water supply networks, and the reconstruction of water saving mechanisms.

We are pleased to publish a Special Issue entitled Water Saving and Management.
