Abstract

This review on Sustainability covers selected journal articles and conferences papers published in 2010 and is divided into the following sections
 • Sustainable water and wastewater utilities:
 • Sustainable water resources management
 • Industrial and corporate approaches towards sustainability
 • Stormwater and green infrastructure
 • Sustainability in wastewater treatment
 • Life cycle assessment (LCA) applications
 • Sustainability and energy in wastewater industry
 • Sustainability and climate change
 • Sustainability and water reuse
 • Sustainability rating systems
 The sustainable water and wastewater utilities reviewed sustainable practices and sustainable workforce management. The stormwater and green infrastructure (GI) described the current development in five categories: new studies of GI and low impact development (LID) system performance; GI/LID system planning assessments; macro‐scale hydrologic and hydraulic modeling of GI/LID systems; efforts to model changes of water flow and quality in individual GI/LID systems; and social implications of GI/LID systems. The sustainability in wastewater treatment reviewed wastewater treatment; source separation; anaerobic technologies; wetland and low impact treatment systems; algae technologies; and the microbial fuel cell technology.
