Shortage of available water resource is a common problem in many regions of the world and one of the important measures to solve the problem is to use the treated wastewater for non-drinking purposes. Centralized wastewater treatment and reuse often needs a great investment and a sophisticated management and maintenance system, which may be unaffordable in less developed countries. Comparing with the centralized system, a decentralized system shows its characteristics of low cost, easy operation and maintenance, and flexibility for wastewater treatment and reuse. This book, the proceedings of the IWA conference on Future Future of Urban Wastewater Systems Decentralisation and Reuse focuses on the future trend of urban wastewater and sanitation, innovative wastewater treatment technologies, sustainability aspects , controlling and monitoring technologies.
