Abstract

The circular water economy aims to reuse water, reduce its wastage, and recycle it while minimizing leaks. This approach relies on advanced technologies and integrated water resource management to achieve sustainability and reduce the negative environmental impact. It also enhances water security, especially in regions suffering from water scarcity, ensuring greater continuity of this vital resource for future generations.
