About this book
This
volume focuses on practical aspects of sustainable water management in urban
areas and presents a discussion of key concepts, methodologies, and case
studies of innovative and evolving technologies. Topics include: (1) challenges
in urban water resiliency; (2) water and energy nexus; (3) integrated urban
water management; and (4) water reuse options (black water, gray water,
rainwater). This volume serves as a useful reference for students and
researchers involved in holistic approaches to water management, and as a
valuable guide to experts in governmental agencies as well as planners and
engineers concerned with sustainable water management systems in urban
environments.
