Cover Story: Collection and treatment of wastewater have huge impacts on environment and economy, both at local and global levels. Eco-innovation plays a prime role in their reduction and greater sustainability in economic, environmental, and social terms.

Issues, needs, technological options and decentralized systems’ contribution to water management are analyzed. View this paper
