Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Materials used in construction, operation and various other services in wastewater and water treatment plants are explored in this Special Issue of Sustainability. Material choice in relation to energy savings, correct use, reductions, measures for superior functionality, use of nanomaterials and newly developed polymers will all be covered.
We are seeking recent research regarding sustainable material use in water and wastewater treatment facilities and open discussions on energy conservation as well as approaches to establishing energy-neutral operations.
Original research articles and reviews are welcome. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Material use, from plastics to steel structures;
- Material–energy nexus;
- Carbon footprints of water and wastewater treatment plants;
- Wastewater collection and water distribution networks;
- Non-revenue water;
- Wastewater reuse and reclamation.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
