Dear all

We are happy to announce that the book "Source Separation and Decentralization for Wastewater Management" has been published. More than 50 scientists and practitioners from all over the world contributed to this book, which gives a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of this novel sanitation concept.

The first part of the book presents the advantages and challenges of sanitation systems based on source separation and decentralization. This is followed by a discussion of established technologies and current technological developments. In the third part, international experts present case studies from Europe and Australia, as well as from emerging and developing countries. In the final section of the book, two renowned researchers highlight the need for a paradigm shift in wastewater management.

The book is intended for practitioners and scientist alike. We hope that it will boost further research on wastewater management alternatives, because they are needed to address the global sanitation challenges.
