This volume highlights the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of water resource recovery from water treatment as presented by leading researchers at the International Conference on Wider-Uptake of Water Resource Recovery from Wastewater Treatment (ICWRR), held in Palermo, Italy on June 18-21, 2024. The event took place together with the 7th IWA Regional Membrane Technology Conference (IWA-RMTC). The contributions cover a wide range of themes from innovative and nature-based solutions for water and wastewater management to circularity assessment tools and environmental policy and legislation. The topics include resource recovery from wastewater, wastewater treatment, membrane bioreactors, greenhouse gases from wastewater treatment, LCA, water reuse & rainwater harvesting, mathematical modelling of wastewater treatment plants, metagenomics analysis and environmental microbiology, environmental policy and legislation in the water sector, plant-water-soil nexus, fertilizers from wastewater. The contributions were selected by means of a rigorous peer-review process and highlight many exciting ideas that will spur novel research directions and foster multidisciplinary collaboration among different water specialists.
