Urban Water Management

"Urban Water Management" tackles the urgent issue of ensuring reliable and sustainable water supplies for growing cities amidst increasing demand and climate change. The book addresses challenges such as aging infrastructure and complex wastewater treatment processes, vital for public health and economic stability. Interestingly, many current urban water systems rely on outdated models. The book highlights that achieving true water security requires an integrated approach, combining infrastructure improvements, technological innovation, and policy reforms.

The book examines existing urban water supply system limitations, wastewater treatment technologies, and the integration of environmental engineering principles. Beginning with fundamental concepts like urban hydrology and water demand forecasting, it delves into water supply infrastructure specifics. Subsequent chapters explore advanced wastewater treatment technologies, including membrane bioreactors. Case studies demonstrate practical applications, culminating in integrated water resource management, emphasizing stakeholder collaboration. This comprehensive approach distinguishes the book, offering practical, evidence-based solutions for environmental engineers, urban planners, and policymakers.
