Source book of alternative technologies for freshwater augmentation in Eastern and Central Europe / Institute for Ecology of Industrial Areas, International Environmental Technology Centre, United Nations Environment Programme, and Water Branch, United Nations Environment Programme.
The countries of Eastern and Central Europe have seen growing pressure on water resources, with increasing demand and costs, for agricultural, domestic and industrial consumption. This has brought about the need to maximize and augment the use of existing or unexploited sources of freshwater. This s...
