Understanding the Circular Economy for water is challenging. It requires being acquainted with individual components involved in urban cycle such as stormwater, conveyance, groundwater, drainage, wastewater treatment and discharge. In addition, to appreciate benefits tradeoffs context of Economy, one also needs factor interrelations between other factors material recovery, energy use, expenses, environmental impacts. On top it, fact that each catchment has a different geography, hydrology...

ABSTRACT Industrial Symbiosis (InSym) capitalises on the proximity of entities to gain a competitive advantage through collective strategies. Within Circular Economy, this involves circular exchange and reuse water, energy, resources among participating businesses, enhancing resource valorisation in manufacturing. However, as distinct business model, InSym requires collaboration multiple stakeholders working toward shared goal, posing challenges achieving mutually beneficial outcomes....

ABSTRACT This paper presents the design of a web-based decision co-creation platform to showcase water treatment technologies connected via industrial symbiosis for circular economy approach. The is developed as part EU H2020-funded ULTIMATE project. system initially investigates three case studies focusing respectively on: and nutrient recovery in greenhouses, pre-treatment wastewater from olive mills before integration into communal systems, value-added compound juice factory. These cases...

Planning for Emergency Response is crucial to a region’s preparedness climate resilience. It involves multiple government sectors and necessitates effective cooperation between them. Collective management of emergency response resources can improve resource allocation at regional scale overcome local constraints. However, prioritising challenging when collective sharing strategy applied. When events are still evolving, another challenge the estimation future demands shortages, which trigger...

Multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) methods have shown advantages in supporting decision-making with problems that confront conflicting objectives. However, current applications to complex environmental featuring the dynamic social sphere, particularly involving cultural heritage and nature, yet substantially reflect this. The sphere reflects demand for scenario forecasting support. This knowledge gap has not been addressed sufficiently MCDA research. A participatory method is hence...

The Nile Delta has been suffering from complex environmental hazards caused by climate change and human-induced evolvements, which have led to adverse impacts on national food security. An unfavourable nexus between solid waste management issues extreme hydrological events is examined mainly through extensive field investigation literature research, an emerging issue affecting safety security whilst still being overlooked so far. findings not only reveal the significance of but also support...

After a long-standing debate of pluralism in heritage conservation, the global practice has just started to broaden its view from material people and even nature, leading potential more comprehensive understanding harmony between these spheres. Notwithstanding that shift then nature seemingly looks like only path modern conservation movement achieve foregoing goals, fact, there exist some regional cultures originally featured particular views on human–nature harmony. This paper hence...

<p>In recent decades, remote sensing has widely been used in mapping floods inundations, and many studies have explored the association between antecedent soil moisture precipitation to assess or predict with quantity intensity. However, capturing specific flooding events is not always guaranteed because of satellite poor revisit frequency. Moreover, little attention paid retrieve historic flood inundation based on dynamics, especially areas data scarcity both terms...
