Special Issue Information
Scarcity of fresh water resources in the GCC countries, Arab World, and worldwide has become a critical challenge to development and livelihoods. Exacerbated with climate change, this challenge is affecting viable sectors such as the industrial, agricultural and touristic activities to name a few. Therefore, proper management of wastewater in semi-arid regions will assist in availing water for various uses and to combat climate change. Wastewater is collected, treated and managed for its reuse potential as an integral component of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Wastewater management can be centralized and/or decentralized in view of local conditions and socio-economic opportunities and challenges. In arid and semi-arid regions, the reuse/recycle wastewater both domestic and industrial is indispensable to help gap the deficit between demand and supply of fresh water resources. In an era when climate change is already, taking place and its extreme events are widely noticed, careful management and reuse of wastewater stand as a significant adaptation option for climate change impacts on water resources.
