Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Drinking water resources are limited worldwide, and the United Nations estimates that the availability of clean and safe drinking water could decrease by up to 40% in the coming decade. The quantity and quality of water resources are crucial to the health of the population and all sectors of the economy, and they are, therefore, a determining factor in preserving society's standard of living. Improvements in the quality of water resources can be achieved by reducing the impacts of municipal and industrial wastewater and agricultural pollution on surface and groundwater. Today's water management strategies must be based on modern methods of wastewater and stormwater treatment. An important aspect is the treatment of wastewater at the point of generation; thus, the search for modern, rational methods of treating wastewater and rainwater, e.g., from roof slopes, is one of the most important environmental engineering challenges.
