This paper presents a critical review of the physical impacts decentralized water supply systems on existing centralized infrastructures. highlights combination and systems, which is referred to as hybrid systems. The system hypothesized generate more sustainable resilient urban basic concept use options such rainwater tanks, storm harvesting localized wastewater treatment reuse in with Currently impact technologies operational performance downstream infrastructure processes yet be known....
The Millennium Drought in Southeast Australia forced greater Melbourne, a city of 4.3 million people, to find innovative ways increasing water supply and decreasing demand. This article explores how managers Melbourne reacted the crisis evaluates short‐ long‐term impacts their decisions. Reduced demand occurred primarily through residential industrial conservation programs, restrictions, together with emergency reductions environmental release streams. also experimented using recycled water,...
A comprehensive evaluation framework that can assess a wide range of water supply and demand management policy options in terms economic, social, environmental, risk-based, functional performance is crucial to ascertain their level sustainability. However, such detailed, generic, holistic not found the literature. This paper reviews studies evaluate and/or conducted during 2000–2016. Primarily, criteria used by different for decision making given significant difference importance set...
Water demand prediction by end-use at an appropriate spatial and temporal resolution is essential for planning water supply systems that will from a diversified set of sources on fit-for-purpose basis. Understanding seasonal, daily sub-daily including peak end-uses requirement to implement strategy. Studies in the literature assume all indoor uses except evaporative cooler use are weather independent do not exhibit seasonal variability. This paper presents analysis undertaken examine...
Nitrate pollution in aquifers is a global concern. Spain has developed national strategy to recover nitrate polluted aligned with the European Union (EU) policies, specifically through water planning under EU Water Framework Directive. River basin management plans use PATRICAL model results define maximum nitrogen surplus each aquifer for first time. The allows reach good status and provides number of years required. Around 30% currently heavily by nitrates. Model show that 90% these can be...
Tracer-based approaches play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of hydrological processes, particularly determining catchment transit time distributions (TTDs). TTDs describe the distribution water ages fluxes leaving catchment, providing critical insights into flow paths, storage, and transformation processes. Despite value these analyses, applying tracer-based methods often remains challenging due to high costs practical difficulties associated with comprehensive sampling...
Urban water managers around the world are adopting decentralized supply systems, often in combination with centralized systems. While increasing demand for arising from population growth is one of primary reasons this increased adoption alternative technologies, factors such as climate change, frequency extreme weather events and rapid urbanization also contribute to an rate these technologies. This centralized-decentralized systems approach referred “hybrid systems” based on premise that...
Permeable pavement (PP) systems have been shown to provide onsite stormwater management as well contaminant removal benefits. Therefore, significant research has taken place in recent years analyse the performance of these structures terms volume harvested and water quality improvements at small scales. However, there is limited understanding their for reducing runoff prevent natural disasters, such catchment-scale flooding. With larger flooding events projected occur more frequently a...
Urbanization inevitably involves the replacement of native soils with impervious areas. Doing so reduces infiltration and thus contribution groundwater to stream baseflows. The use infiltration-based Stormwater Control Measures (SCMs) is increasingly common restore lost baseflows in urban areas, although there remains considerable uncertainty regarding optimal arrangement such measures landscape, along influence site conditions on path fate infiltrated stormwater. This study aimed...
