Water-Energy Nexus

Aims & Scope

The management of natural water or water/wastewater infrastructures is closely related to energy.

Effective energy management is not possible without clean and adequate water sources.

Water-Energy Nexus is an interdisciplinary journal that covers research on energy efficiency in natural water management, and water/wastewater treatment and distribution, energy for water transmission/treatment/distribution and wastewater collection/treatment/disposal, water for energy extraction/production, as well as related topics.

The studies can include physical, chemical, and biological processes in engineering- and management-fields of the water-energy nexus.

The journal welcomes original contributions covering, but not limited to: • strategies to improve water/wastewater/ solid waste management and treatment efficiencies, • strategies to save energy consumption or increase energy production in water/wastewater/ solid waste related industry, • efficient utilization of water resources in energy industry, • efficient soil erosion and remediation technologies or practices, • urban and rural water resources and watersheds management, • mitigation of and adaptation to climate change impacts on flooding, water environment, and ecology, • natural water and water/wastewater managements (or practices) affecting climate changes and energy industry, • new/renewable energy coupled to water management practices, • water-cycle-based circular economy (or strategy to promote one water concept) • any natural, socio-economic, and technical factors affecting water resources (in terms of quality and quantity), water/wastewater infrastructures, and energy industry.

The works include scientific and engineering strategies of experimental, theoretical, mathematical, and managemental approaches that address the aforementioned issues.

The work could be either bench scale or pilot scale.
