Abstract

This review on Sustainability covers selected journal articles and conferences papers published in 2011 and is divided into the following sections1: • Sustainable water and wastewater utilities • Sustainable water resources management • Industrial and corporate approaches towards sustainability • Stormwater and green infrastructure • Sustainability in wastewater treatment • Life cycle assessment (LCA) applications • Sustainability and energy in wastewater industry, climate change, and water reuse • Sustainability rating system. The stormwater and green infrastructure (GI) described the current development in four categories: (1) new studies of GI and low impact development (LID) system performance; (2) GI/LID planning assessments; (3) macro-scale hydrologic and hydraulic modeling of GI/LID systems; and (4) social implications of GI/LID systems. The sustainability in wastewater treatment reviewed wastewater as a resource, wastewater treatment, and wastewater treatment plant carbon and energy footprint. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
