Source book of alternative technologies for freshwater augmentation in small island developing states / South Pacific Applied Geoscience Commission, International Environmental Technology Centre, United Nations Environment Programme, and Water Branch, United Nations Environment Programme.
The small island developing states of the world 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. Th...

| 520 | |a The small island developing states of the world 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 sourcebook provides water resource managers and planners, especially in developing countries and in countries with economies in transition, with information on the range of technologies that have been developed and used in the various countries throughout the world. | ||
