Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
At present, despite the many legislations, laws, and methodologies for ensuring the sustainability of water management, there are many problems that come as a result of climate change. Extreme weather conditions, such as long and high-intensity precipitation and drastic changes in air temperatures, lead to flooding and drought. These impact all sectors in which there is activity related to water usage. Nevertheless, the engineering and scientific approaches to handling these problems involve final decisions that are based on legislation and laws which allow or prohibit the application of a mechanism for solving water management problems in drinking water and wastewater.
This Special Issue aims to collect original research articles and review papers from the international scientific conference "3rd European GREEN Conference—EGC 2025", held from 10 to 13 June 2025 in Vodice, Croatia. Due to the conference's importance, as well as the number of abstracts and full papers submitted, the idea is to select the highest-quality papers and recommend them for publication in this Special Issue. However, submissions beyond the papers submitted to this conference are strongly welcomed.
This Special Issue will welcome manuscripts that link the following themes, which require the solving of engineering, decision-making, and management problems:
- Water, wastewater treatment, and water reuse;
- Water management;
- The impact of climate change on water bodies.
We look forward to receiving your original research articles and reviews.
