Depuis le début des années 2000, à l'instar de nombreux pays, la récupération et l'utilisation de l'eau de pluie en provenance de toitures suscite un intérêt croissant en France. Désormais sortie de la marginalité, cette ressource permet de satisfaire des besoins en eau ne requérant pas une qualité d'eau potable. Des systèmes sont installés en ville, tant dans les maisons individuelles que dans les bâtiments collectifs. Néanmoins, le développement de l'utilisation des eaux de pluie s'opère sans lien fort avec la gestion des eaux pluviales. Pour favoriser plus de synergie, cet ouvrage propose aux collectivités, aménageurs et concepteurs de projet de porter un nouveau regard sur l'utilisation de l'eau de pluie à partir d'un panorama international. Dans quelle mesure la récupération et l'utilisation de l'eau de pluie contribuent-t-elles à la maîtrise du ruissellement urbain, tant à l'échelle du bâtiment qu'à celle de la ville ? Comment cette contribution est-elle susceptible d'être accrue par des leviers techniques ? Quels leviers institutionnels les collectivités territoriales peuvent-elles mobiliser pour la favoriser ? Telles sont les questions auxquelles cet ouvrage ambitionne d'apporter de premiers éléments de réponses pour favoriser un nouveau regard sur cette pratique.

It is estimated that literally billions of residents in urban and peri-urban areas of Africa, Asia, and Latin America are served by onsite sanitation systems (e.g. various types of latrines and septic tanks). Until recently, the management of faecal sludge from these onsite systems has been grossly neglected, partially as a result of them being considered temporary solutions until sewer-based systems could be implemented. However, the perception of onsite or decentralized sanitation technologies for urban areas is gradually changing, and is increasingly being considered as long-term, sustainable options in urban areas, especially in low- and middle-income countries that lack sewer infrastructures. This is the first book dedicated to faecal sludge management. It compiles the current state of knowledge of the rapidly evolving field of faecal sludge management, and presents an integrated approach that includes technology, management, and planning based on Sandecs 20 years of experience in the field. Faecal Sludge Management: Systems Approach for Implementation and Operation addresses the organization of the entire faecal sludge management service chain, from the collection and transport of sludge, and the current state of knowledge of treatment options, to the final end use or disposal of treated sludge. The book also presents important factors to consider when evaluating and upscaling new treatment technology options. The book is designed for undergraduate and graduate students, and engineers and practitioners in the field who have some basic knowledge of environmental and/or wastewater engineering.

Water is vital for life, and its availability has been a concern for mankind throughout the ages. Its presence has always been ascertained in a variety of ways and the development of human society everywhere is connected with various forms of water management. Man also needed to manage water to find protection from its dangers and the need for that is increasing. In the coming decades, the impact of climate change is expected to intensify floods and droughts, affect groundwater resources, raise sea levels, increase pollution and enhance the frequency and magnitude of disasters. Societies around the world are challenged to adapt to these threats to ensure water security, economic prosperity and environmental and cultural sustainability. This book deals with the heritage of water management and the use that was made of water, as well as the impact of water management on heritage. An example of the former may be an ancient irrigation system in the Filipines or in the Middle East that still functions today, while the latter may reflect the importance of maintaining groundwater levels for the preservation of organic remains on archaeological sites or of wooden piles underneath standing buildings. In either case the papers in this book reflect the dynamic nature of water, and hence the equally dynamic relation between water management and heritage. This publication follows up on a Heritage and Water conference in Amsterdam, the first of its kind. Its main purpose is to credibly present the importance and value of heritage and historical experience for water and sustainable development, and vice versa, present the importance of water management for the protection of heritage. It presents evolving insights and concepts about Water and about Heritage from a variety of disciplines, policy and public perspectives illustrated with cases studies and aims to connect decision makers with experts such as engineers, archaeologists, historians, geographers, ecologist and landscape architects
